Unclear what purpose this is meant to serve. I can't find any source which uses "Thaiwan" for either, or at all. There is a restaurant somewhere called Thaiwan which serves Thai and Taiwanese food, but that doesn't seem relevant here. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 01:29, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
- Keep harmless typo. Also, I can't tell you how many times people have confused Taiwan and Thailand.--Prisencolin (talk) 01:44, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. A disambiguation page for a typo? Seriously? Maybe in Trumpopedia, where Israel isn't in the Middle East. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:24, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

- Redirect to Taiwan for which it is a plausible misspelling and/or typo, and I do see google results for that. I don't see anything related to Thailand that isn't a deliberate blend with Taiwan. Thryduulf (talk) 13:57, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Having a disambiguation page gives undue credibility to this typo. Given how many people from outside Asia confuse Taiwan and Thailand, we shouldn't fan the flame by propagating mistakes. Deryck C. 15:15, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Since neither of the 2 entries has a mention in the target article, this is WP:G6. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 13:51, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
