This is slightly confusing because the CEPT document lists 46 countries.

Please add the links to [2][3] to all of them. And could you also add
the link to the other countries that already have a 6 GHz entry? Just
so we know that they are harmonized.

As in, no entry in the database exists?

Probably rewrite this as:

The following are skipped as they do not have corresponding entries in
the database yet. Adding an entry just for 6 GHz would cause 2.4 GHz and
5 GHz bands from the world domain to stop working.
