Illegal immigrant population of the United States

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This page should be deleted because there isn't enough content here to justify a separate page from 'Illegal immigration to the United States'. In fact, the presence of both this page and a section in the 'Illegal immigration to the United States' on the same topic may have contributed to the underdevelopment of both, as editors have either added content to one or the other page. The content that's worth saving from 'Illegal immigrant population of the United States' should be added to the 'Profile and demographics' section of 'Illegal immigration to the United States'. Deleting this page will strengthen the 'Illegal immigration to the United States' page, and ensure that Wikipedia will cover the demographics of the illegal immigrant population of the US in a more comprehensive fashion.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep - This is a sub-page springing from Illegal immigration to the United States, constructed to keep the parent page from becoming so large as to be unwieldy. It is not a POV fork and is a subject of fairly massive study, both academically and in the contemporary press, and thus miles above the GNG standard for inclusion in Wikipedia.

 * Keep Per WP:SPLIT - the main page is 181k, and this would make it 195k in size. 47.208.20.130 (talk) 18:29, 9 September 2017 (UTC)
