I couldn't find sources discussing colonial orders of chivalry as a group like this article aims to do, seems to fail GNG/NLIST. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 10:09, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Order of chivalry. Wholly unsourced and without adding almost anything on top of Order of chivalry, I think this is just a matter of WP:NOPAGE regardless of notability. MarioGom (talk) 15:20, 8 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  My concern with a redirect would be that I think the concept of a distinct category of "colonial orders of chivalry" existing is not reflected in reliable sources at all. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 16:24, 8 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  After looking for further sources, I'm leaning towards delete too. MarioGom (talk) 17:05, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as some kind of OR or SYNTH. By the way, this has been linked all over the place, so will take some cleanup. If this gets deleted, we'll have to remove it from the navbox at the bottom of this page and reword articles like Royal Order of Cambodia to remove the word "colonial".
