The result was redirect to Steve Sailer. Clear consensus to not keep. No consensus whether to delete or merge, given that "delete and merge" is not possible for attribution reasons. The redirect allows people to figure out editorially whether anything should be merged from the history. Sandstein 21:03, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sailer Strategy

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Some political-strategy proposal, with no evidence that it's being implemented or even seriously discussed. As the inexplicably removed PROD tag put it, "brief mentions with no in-depth discussion". Calton | Talk 14:23, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Apart from being quite the buzzword on VDARE (according to Google), I can't find much usage of the term in reputable media. Yintan 19:32, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and merge with Steve Sailer. While not notable on its own, this appears to be a legitimate concept associated with him. Reason is Immortal (talk) 21:39, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and merge with Steve Sailer. The entire contents of this short article are of the form "Steve Sailer said such-and-such". There is no sign that the so-called Sailer Strategy is anything other than the thoughts of Steve Sailer. We don't have separate Wikipedia articles for Harry Truman and Harry Truman's ideas, so neither should be do so here. — Lawrence King ^(talk) 07:57, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Steve Sailer is notable, Sailer Strategy is not even notable enough for a redirect. I don't see any content worth merging, either. Power~enwiki (talk) 20:06, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
