No clear reason for this article to exist when we have separate articles on each origin/host country pairing. Reliable sources don't appear to treat Horn Africans in Scandinavia as a group. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:44, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This article indicates that most of the information about ‘Horn Africans’ (not a very inclusive-sounding term) is already on Wikipedia but for some reason people will be searching for ‘Horn Africans’ rather than ‘Eritreans in Norway’ or whatever. I can't see any justification for this article at all. Mccapra (talk) 18:45, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete no given source in the article WP:V verifies the WP:GNG of the topic as a whole. It may therefore be an unsuitable topic for a standalone article unless more sources are found. Also there are already articles like Somalis in Sweden, Somalis in Denmark and Somalis in Norway. A Thousand Words (talk) 18:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cordless Larry I think a third opinion could be good on the Somalis in Norway and Somalis in Denmark articles. The editor who created the Horn Africans in Scandinavia have deleted large amounts of WP:RS information so I reverted those edits and invited the user to discuss on the talk page per WP:BRD. However, the user simply restored the edits without reaching a WP:CONSENSUS. Any input is welcome if you have the time. A Thousand Words (talk) 18:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I gave my opinion earlier at Talk:Somalis in Norway#recent removal of WP:RS information, 1Kwords. If the editor is edit warring, then they should be reported, but I will recuse myself as I'm arguably too involved in the content dispute. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:24, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cordless Larry it appears that someone identified Sahasu as a sockpuppet of a banned user. My own suspicion was that this was a novel sockpuppet of Soupforone, but that turned out not to be the case. Thanks for weighing in on the Norway article. A Thousand Words (talk) 08:01, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have already reinstated most of the articles for Denmark section that involves crime but the Norwegians section where cordless Larry agrees can be up for further debates — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sahasu (talk • contribs) 22:55, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Clearly fails both notability as well as reliable sourcing guidelines of Wikipedia. There does not seem to be any reputable sources that reference "Horn Africans" in "Scandinavia" as a monolith. Besides, content is better covered in individual articles, this is how most reliable sources have dealt with the topic. --Kzl55 (talk) 19:24, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
