Not a notable topic. No notable or reputable sources of information found either. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 20:07, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Comment - Once again I'm humbled by User:CaliforniaAliBaba's contributing edits. I'm retracting the nomination. This article should definitely be kept. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 07:28, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Delete — At best the content discusses very minor demographic trends, with no citations to back it up. I'd at least want to see some major demographic trends to make the page notable. (E.g. Illegal immigration to the United States.) — RJH (talk) 20:51, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - a totally impossible list to maintain, verify, etc. And, what would be the use? SkierRMH 04:46, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - not a list, never was. cab 06:08, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep one demographic trend I can think of off the top of my head is the reverse-migration of American-born Chinese to Hong Kong; their influence on the entertainment industry has been noted in several reliable sources. (Also, Bruce Lee was an American in Hong Kong for some time ...) cab 06:08, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - I don't see the use of this at all ArchStanton 07:56, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - article is expanded somewhat and has a copious listing of sources for further expansion. Request nominator to review. More suggested reading for everyone: WP:IDONTLIKEIT. cab 07:29, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
