  • Comment You've offered no deletion rationale. I'm looking at an obviously woefully incomplete article, albeit one that is sort of sourced. There seems to be some objection to using well-sourced but out-of-date data from the CIA World Factbook, which shouldn't be a problem as long as the dating is made clear. So it's possible with some work and dispute resolution this article could be whipped into shape (but it should be moved to Ethnic groups in Cape Verde per naming conventions). On the other hand, as it is, it's lacking key information and potentially misleading about the importance of what is included. --Dhartung | Talk 07:30, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
    • I don’t understand why you said that there is no deletion rationale. I thought that the reasons I’ve written in the talk page were enough, but maybe it is my poor English that doesn’t allow me to explain myself correctly... If by any chance my explanations were not clear, I will gladly try to explain them more thoroughly. And second, why bringing the CIA data issue again? As I said before, not only it is out-of-date but it is certainly not well-sourced, and irrelevant for this subject. Racial groups are not ethnic groups. Ten Islands 03:37, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I'll offer a delete rationale - Demographics of Cape Verde already exists and covers everything that this article should. MLA 16:31, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
