Epidemiology of myopia

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Though this topic may be notable, this page as it currently exists is just a "stat dump" of rates of myopia per different case studies. As an example, in the USA section, there is 7 separate studies of myopia listed (1970s, TX, Socal, La Puente, American Samoa, Chicago, Alaska), with nothing in particular connecting them.

Even if the topic is found to be notable, this article should be WP:TNTed and a more focused article created. Natg 19 (talk) 00:35, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Draftify would be the preferred option if someone could commit to fix the WP:NOTSTATS issue or turn it into a list; it is clearly notable and there are many sources to use. Otherwise, Delete is the best option, it really is a dump of statistics with no meaning. JML1148 (Talk &#124; Contribs) 07:27, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete, per nom. Or at the very least draftify. &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:21, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment: By the nature of epidemiology ("the study and analysis of the distribution (who, when, and where), patterns and determinants of health and disease conditions in a defined population"), any such article will be stats-heavy. Turning such article-body-text into one or more tables might help make the remainder more easily readable. Just a suggestion. – . Raven .talk 11:04, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
