• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 15:35, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
• Opposed. Multiracialism is a materially different policy than multiculturalism. Mcarling (talk) 18:12, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

• Delete: if sources are added that verify what is said in the article then I would say keep but as it stands now it is unsourced and OR. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Woland37 (talk • contribs) 22:17, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, as stated by Woland, the article seems to be encyclopaedic, but is in desperate need of references and notability. Give it this, then I will change my vote to keep!--Sallicio 08:52, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
• Strong keep. This article needs cleanup, not deletion. The concept of multiracialism is apparently well-known and much used, as evidenced by the 1,170 (!) Google Scholar hits[1], 39 of which have multiracialism in the title[2]. There are similar results for Google Books and News. Please, a bad article on a good subject is not bound for deletion but for improvement. Fram (talk) 12:45, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
• Keep per Fram. The article's only flaw is talking nearly exclusively about Singapore; that text is not even bad text, it's just not balanced coverage of multiracialism elsewhere. If we must, we could always cut out the stuff about Singapore to make a shorter, more balanced stub, but that doesn't require deletion of the article. Mangojuice^talk 15:59, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
