This appears to be a term paper / original research. Contested prod. ... discospinster _talk 03:42, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - While the article may need some minor copy-editing, it is sourced by trustworthy and reliable sources, including:

The World Bank
The United Nations
International Food Policy Research Institute
Overseas Development Institute
The Vietnamese Government
The Australian Government

– Per WP:PRESERVE, the article should be improved, not deleted. Northamerica1000^(talk) 05:56, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. It may be sourced to reputable works, but none of them supports the info — it's all synthesis. And I see absolutely no way to fix it. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 06:54, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Could you be more specific? Much of the information in the article is directly supported by the references. For examples, see the section of the article "Poverty and demographics", in which the information is directly, and correctly referenced from Vietnam poverty analysis, published by the Australian government. It's absolutely incorrect to state as you did above that "none of them supports the info", regarding the references, because they most certainly do. Did you actually perform any cross-checking?

Keep and retitle Poverty in Vietnam. The basis of an acceptable article, though it needs to be better references. The way to deal with a general article with inadequate referencing is to reference it. DGG ( talk ) 08:37, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I agree with retitling the article to Poverty in Vietnam, which would increase the scope of the article's premise, allowing for further expansion. Northamerica1000^(talk) 09:24, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Its a notable subject as far as I can tell. --TIAYN (talk) 15:56, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I think. WP:Search for "Poverty in Vietnam" gets 1,540 article hits, so either it goes somewhere there, or is userfied after a suitable discussion and explanation. Hope that's right. NewbyG ( talk) 16:13, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and move to Poverty in Vietnam per DGG and Northamerica1000. Perfectly reasonable article, with 1,000s of potential sources. Bearian (talk) 00:40, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy or incubate. The article need to be move to Poverty in Vietnam, however if you take a close look to the article, it does look like a essay, and also some changes needs to be make so that this article talks about the poverty in Vietnam, not its reduction. An article with the same title can be created later as the sub-article of "Poverty in Vietnam", but at this time, i will recommend that this article be incubated, and be made a proper article on the poverty in Vietnam and a section for it reduction part. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ ^Talk ^Email 08:58, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
