The result was '''delete'''. Note a duplicate "keep" from DGG was not wholly ignored, as he made a different point. DHowell's excellent "keep" argument justifies the existence of our [[Belgian Americans]] and [[Swiss Americans]] articles very well but fails to address why we should have a list. Badagnani's argument consists of "Keep as it is encyclopaedic", without evidencing why (the rest of his comments are not pertinent to this deletion discussion). Mikka and DGG's arguments, again, justify the [[Belgian Americans]] article very well, but fail to address why we also need a list. Only Kappa's argument has any real pertinence to this list, and given the number of deletions citing valid policy, I can only close this as a delete.

*'''Keep''', if there was any argument that this is a non-notable intersection DHowell has refuted it. That leaves the same old "categories can do this" argument, which is based on the completely ridiculous idea that readers will click through a plain list of names to find out who they were.
