A category for this, Category:Americans of Venezuelan Descent already exists, and there is no need to create this list. Anyway, if that category had not existed, it should have been still created as a category, not an article. Rarkenin (talk) 20:36, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTDUP says otherwise, but as it appears a category is what the creator was trying to do based on his talk page, ask him to list it for speedy deletion. Generally, we need to encourage more discussion rather than jumping to AFD to solve problems. postdlf (talk) 23:13, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete Unless reliable sources say something about the group the article is just an intersection of two unrelated qualifications, and then just a list of individuals. Kitfoxxe (talk) 06:51, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Venezuelan American. It already lists notable Venezuelan Americans, and a reader typing in "Venezuelans in the United States" could very probably be looking for general information on the general experience of Venezuelan Americans (and if he or she is looking for a list like this one, that article has it too). There's no need to create an awkward cross-namespace redirect when this simple solution is available. --BDD (talk) 00:17, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per BDD. Venezuelans in the United States is just a recreation of Venezuelan American#Notable Venezuelan Americans with a few exceptions. --J36miles (talk) 01:37, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
