Demographics of Montreal
Should delete this article since it has one fourth the content that's already on the main Montreal article and serves no purpose, unless someone thinks of enough content to put on it.. Elfguy 06:42, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

(NOTE: This VfD page was created on June 26, but was never added to the actual VfD roster. Added by me on June 29; I listed it on that date's VfD list so as to give this article its proper week of debate. No vote from me yet, though I may vote later.) Bearcat 29 June 2005 04:52 (UTC)


 * Keep - This is one of a large number of demographics pages for various cities and countries around the world. Montreal is not an insignificant city in the country of Canada (and its historical importance is also of note. The Montreal page is large enough (though expansion is always a possibility). This page should, however, be expanded to include other statistics (placed on the attention wanted page perhaps).--eleuthero 29 June 2005 05:07 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Montreal if this is "one of a large number of demographics pages for various cities and countries around the world". The content of this article is currently far better in the main Montreal article. Double Blue  (Talk) 29 June 2005 06:18 (UTC)
 * Merge into Montreal. The only reason this isn't a delete vote is someone needs to check the contradictory stats.  Also, though there are many good demographics pages, approx 95% are for countries (which are necessarily more complex and so need to be broken into sub-articles), not cities.

 * Merge per Bubamara. carmeld1 29 June 2005 23:31 (UTC)
 * Merge as above. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; June 30, 2005 12:41 (UTC)
 * Merge as per Bubamara. .:.Jareth.:. babelfish June 30, 2005 14:13 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand the article, or failing that merge into Montreal. There is significant data that can be included in demographics articles for large cities, but this article has failed to capture that in its current form. A minimal demographics article should include: ethinicity and cultural background, languages spoken, age distribution, education levels, population growth, families (marriage, divorce, etc), sexuality, income, etc. There could also be an Economy/business demographics section.
