Nations at the xxx pages are usually reserved for events with multiple sports or disciplines. This one focuses on just one sport. Also quoting Peter Rehse, from another similar AFD [1], "they are all a rehash of a single source. National results for events that are borderline notable themselves. Even there there is nothing demonstrating that [the country] performed anywhere near notable." Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 00:02, 9 January 2017 (UTC) Also nominating the following for the same reasons:

- Keep. EAC is a high-profile, high-level competition, and I don't think these articles are overkill. They "make sense" by serving a useful purpose: extracting information about whatever e.g. Albania achieved in the 80-year or so history of the EAC is something a reader might legitimately be interested in, yet is extremely hard to do using just articles on individual editions. Merging into e.g. Albania at the European Athletics Championships is a remote possibility, but since EAC is a multi-event championship with 23 editions thus far, this is bound to create huge and unwieldy articles.

- Merge to "Nation at European Athletics Championships" articles. Individual country performances at a single edition are not of note in themselves. The history of the country at the competition as a whole certainly is as these performances form a key part of countries' athletics history. The competition spent much of its history at the second most important athletics meet after the Olympics and remains a key competition for a region which created and excels at the sport. A topic of much national importance and note. SFB 00:46, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
