Ningbonese people

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Undersourced article. This is neither a notable ethnicity nor a nationality. Prisencolin (talk) 20:28, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete unless it can be shown that this is not a WP:CFORK. Geschichte (talk) 07:34, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep but move. It is really a list not a regular article. If you look at the article history, you will see that the page was formerly named "List of people from Ningbo", and that's what the page really is. It is linked from Ningbo to serve that function. Note that "List of people from " pages are quite commonplace (Category:Lists of people by location) and there's no reason to single out this one for deletion. I agree that there's no evidence showing that Ningbonese people are a meaningful ethnic group; to the extent that the lead section or info box give a misleading impression in that regard, they can be edited.

 * There's not a much prose on this article as I had remembered in the past... I suppose a simple rename could be in order.-- Prisencolin (talk) 09:48, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete this is a term that the article does not have enough sources to demonstrate that it is actually a notable term worth having an article on.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:33, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
