Stereotypes of West and Central Asians in the United States

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

From the talk page:

I'm not finding evidence of such a grouping in any RS. This is a disjointed WP:SYNTH explaining several unrelated groups without connection. The Turkish section should be merged into Anti-Turkism. – Laundry Pizza 03  ( d c&#x0304; ) 00:20, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete This article is an odd expression of stereotyping in its own right. This seems to really be "Stereotypes of Arabs and Muslims in the US" . The problem is that there are non-Muslim, non-Arab West Asians, most obviously the Israelis, and by some accounts the Chaldeans. Central Asian=Muslim is probably more correct in that almost all Central Asians are Muslims, however a large number of Muslims are not Central Asian at all, but from Pakistan and India and Bangladesh which are all in South Asia. THen there are Indonesians and Malaysians. This is trying to build unity with no sourcing for the ideas presented.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:52, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete WP:SYNTH is in place, but there is also the issue raised by John Pack Lambert. This article seems to exist just to blur a number of other articles into a summary page, where the summary page doesn't really blend its contents very well. Nosebagbear (talk) 14:07, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
