[edit] Nepalese American

Nepalese American (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

No information of its own, no notable expansion since creation in May. More useful as a redlink. Circeus 01:31, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Expand and Keep If this article can be expanded in a week, then keep it. Or else delete it. I'll try to work on it. --Ageo020 (T • C) 01:38, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete based on WP:N and WP:CITE Non notability and no citable source. Not even the US census table supplied on the article contains Nepalese American.~ Feureau 03:25, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Comment (mainly for whoever closes the discussion): The premise to delete this article was that it was a sub-stub with no cited information of its own, which is understandable -- I voted to delete at first. However, the article has since been expanded to include cited information, invalidating (as far as I can see, anyway) the rationale to delete. --Czj 21:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

• Expand and Keep I find some evidence of notability. There's The New York Nepali Times, Nepalese Association in Southeastern America, and article at Multicultural America. I need to get to sleep so I can't work on it yet.--T. Anthony 04:23, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• If sources are cited and article is expanded, then its a keep. If not, it's a delete. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 04:24, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom; WP:CITE and WP:N for entire group of dash-Americans...SkierRMH 08:27, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Ditto other delete votes--Aussie King Pin 10:16, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Same as above, although it looks like there may be some hope for this one. If one of you enthusiastic hombrés can come up with enough information to fill an ethnic template, then I change my vote. Black-Velvet 11:44, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

I did what I could, but there wasn't as much to the sources as I'd expected. The Sri Lankan one was easier, if more potentially controversial due to ethnic issues.--T. Anthony 18:36, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Article includes no cited information about their arrival in the US, settlement, achievements, etc. I'm changing my vote to Keep; article has been expanded with valid and sourced information. --Czj 18:28, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• keep Every American ethnic group deserves its own article. This is the multi-ethnic America. Hmains 03:57, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
