Move details about the systems for particular countries to separate articles

Would it be reasonable to shorten the article by moving the details for particular countries to individual articles? Somebody has created an article for India, though it is currently shorter than the section in this article. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_recognition_system#India_2 I have added a link - shall we move the text there?

@Oitio this is a broad enough topic for many countries to have their own article covering it. Also, to keep this article in sync with those articles the Excerpt template could be used to pull in their leads, etc, to this article,keeping editing in one place.

Possible AI text

Possible addition about consumer facial recognition applications

I would like to ask for editors' feedback about a possible addition to the Facial recognition system article concerning consumer-facing facial comparison applications.

The page I previously considered as a source is:

<<link redacted>>

It describes a consumer application/service that uses facial comparison technology. I understand that this is a primary/commercial website and that it may not be appropriate as an external link or as a source for general claims about facial recognition.

I am connected with the website, so I have a conflict of interest and will not add the link or proposed content directly. I would appreciate guidance from independent editors on whether this type of application is relevant to the article and, if so, what kind of independent reliable sources would be required.

I can provide independent secondary sources if needed.

Thank you. Smithjohnns (talk) 06:58, 19 August 2026 (UTC)
