• Keep; Maybe not the best title, but I think it's a little early to give up on this one.

Just trying to expand it a bit at a time. --Cretanforever 21:31, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, all topics that this article could cover can be more concisely be described in other demographics and history related articles. Also, the article will inevitably end up being a POV essay, one way or another. Possibly not even redirect, as the current title is just ... --dcabrilo 00:00, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
