Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Han–Uyghur intermarriage
per BRD. I'm not seeing where Andrew is coming from claiming this page's history makes it clear it was split off from the long Xinjiang history article -- at the time this article was created, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_Xinjiang&oldid=904575697 that article contained https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_Xinjiang&oldid=904575697#Intermarriages_between_Han_and_Uyghurs a single short section on this topic, corresponding basically to the lead of the present article. The present article reads a bit like a POVFORK of the other article, created at its current location to get around the scrutiny of the original article's 63 page watchers. Obviously the topic is notable, but we really shouldn't be allowing the present article to exist in its present state if the only ones who think it should be so are the article's creator and editors who are opposed to all of the |"alternatives to keeping" on principle. This looks a little like the old "deletionists telling editors who specialize in this topic area what they can and can't do with their own articles" problem seen, for example, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tanka prose, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of General Caste in Sikhism (2nd nomination), and Talk:Mottainai Bāsan#Requested move 7 December 2018
