Infobox says that 150 people belong to this community. Both references are dead. I couldn't find notability criteria for ethnic groups, but this doesn't seem to justify an article. Park3r (talk) 03:53, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as failing WP:GNG. Seems to be a relic of a time when some editors thought that Wikipedia should have an article about every nationality-country pairing. Cordless Larry (talk) 11:26, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Current sources fails in passing WP:GNG. Cuoxo (talk) 12:15, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete "Nationals from country X in country Y" has no default notability, and a Google search produces no WP:SIGCOV for this paring. FWIW, though the community figure has risen to 500 residents (including temporary residents such as students). –Austronesier (talk) 13:26, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. First, google alone is not the source of WP:SIGCOV as per wiki policy. Any print or online media can be considered as for SIGCOV. See also -Is google search reliable?. Migration of people from one nation to another is a historic event. Registering it is a great value to any encyclopedia for those who want to begin his research in this field. I think that is what the motto of Wikipedia is as well- to be a starting point of research. Whoever had created the article, should have similar logic behind its creation. nirmal (talk) 05:41, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I pulled up one of the references in archive.org [1] and it looks like the article is also a copyvio. There's nothing here. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:39, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
