The result was keep (non-admin closure) The consensus here appears to be to either keep, or in some cases, to redirect the article to another. But redirection is not something, in this instance, that would require any administrative action to do, and redirecting the article, if appropriate, is something that can be discussed on the article talk page.

Belgian people redirects to Belgium since 2007. This article's full of dubious uncited statements, so it's violating WP:OR. I'm sorry but "Belgians" as an ethnic group doesn't exist. This article will never reach the quality of Americans as a "nationality", because most Americans identify themselves as Americans while Belgians generally indentify themselves as belonging either to Wallonia or Flanders. Belgium is inhabited by two major ethnic groups: Fleming and Walloons. Of course there are people with Belgian citizenship and there are people living in Belgium, but that's already mentioned in the article named Demographics of Belgium. This article can actually increase confusion because a lot of people outside Belgium are unaware of the country's ethnic split and also because there once was (thousands of years ago) a Celtic tribe called Belgae which could be translated into Belgians . Secondly this article doesn't even include clear and significant examples of the shared common ethnicity.
I think the page should either redirect to Belgium or made into a disambig page linking to Belgae, Demographics of Belgium and culture of Belgium. Deraderum (talk) 16:02, 27 June 2011 (UTC)— Deraderum (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
