Immigrant Entrepreneurship[edit]

Promo, in my opinion an attempt to attract highly educated people to move to the USA. The Banner talk 21:45, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Understandable sentiment, however, most of the existing literature on the subject of entrepreneurship is by American Institutions about American Institutions. Would renaming it "Immigrant Entrepreneurship in the United States" help with your concern? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.27.34.255 (talk) 18:54, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No. The point is that the article is 100% promo, not a neutral description. The Banner talk 22:06, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The subject matter is almost exclusively U.S.-based and would benefit from additional content about immigrant entrepreneurs in other countries. People should be encouraged to add content, not delete the article. Or, as previously suggested, it could be re-named. It is not a pure promo, or if it is it does a poor job. The article states that it is harder for immigrants to start businesses than the native born, they are more likely to fail, and they have visa issues. That does not sound like a hard sell for coming to the U.S. User: RationalRen — Preceding unsigned comment added by RationalRen (talk • contribs) 18:48, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: personal reflection/essay failing WP:NPOV/WP:NOT that does not have sufficient citation to reliable sources. While I could support a redirect of the title, the essay currently here is not something that can be cleaned up eventually and turned into a useful article. Furthermore, if we merged the proper target for the content would be Immigration to the United States, but the proper target for the title would be either immigration or entrepreneurship. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 18:07, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
