Missing countries

There are still some major countries that I can't find official statistics on international arrivals. Some like Argentina don't seem to collect information by nationality and some like Switzerland or Sweden seem to collect data only on the number of nights spent. But I was wondering if you could try finding data from other former Soviet countries - the missing ones are Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. Also except Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Moldova we don't have data for 2015. Good find on Azerbaijan btw!--Twofortnights (talk) 15:45, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't been able to find statistics on Argentina too. Today I was looking for statistical information about the countries of the former USSR. Found only on Azerbaijan. The others do not publish detailed statistics, unfortunately. --Norvikk (talk) 15:58, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Vandal

Hi,

please take a look at the Visa policy of the United States. There is a vandal trying to add some nonsense that he copy-pasted from a bitter op-ed on some random blog. The edits are on how a tourist visa issuance entails an "exam" (?!) and how the region called "Nations of Muslim majority" require a visa 100%. He also keeps moving one section for no reason around the article and adds some random letters. He makes red herring edit summaries suggesting that there is no consensus to remove this from the article, despite adding it only today.--Twofortnights (talk) 19:45, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi.

Every few months this happens. I would have closed all visa articles on editing by IP editors. Prudence will win) --Norvikk (talk) 20:47, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I didn't know that wikipedia was a competition that some can win. The edits are referenced and in good faith, and certainly not vandalism.81.64.61.5 (talk) 21:27, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
