 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Firstly I would note that the nominator provides such a vague reason for deletion to qualify this for a speedy keep, secondly that the article content does not match the title - according to the title this should be about adoption of Haitian children anywhere in the world, but the content is about adoption of Haitian children in the United States (this is not USApedia) - and thirdly the article had, until I just removed them, loads of spam links to adoption agencies. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:54, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Poorly sourced. Weak article. Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 01:33, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Extremely strange article. Haitian adoption is "common" in the United States, but only 33 children were adopted from Haiti in 2011, out of 160,000 total adoptions in the US? An incredible 0.02%! And wasn't this supposed to be about international adoption? AlessandroTiandelli333 (talk) 09:56, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete strange indeed. This article seems like edit test. It fails WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV as evidenced by few result that different search yielded –Ammarpad (talk) 17:54, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
 * The more I look at this article the stranger it seems. It refers to children being "brought home to the U.S.", when it is pretty obviously about children being taken away from their home (or is everybody's home really the U.S.?), and ever since its creation until I removed it a few days ago the article had a long spammy list of adoption agencies. There is quite possibly a notable subject here about adoption of Haitian children in the 200 or so non-Haitian countries in the world, but I don't think that anything in this article belongs here. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:37, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
