I do believe that this article is far too specific and falls under "What Wikipedia is not." I believe that merging the article is a good choice of action, but I am unsure what exact article it can be put into. Reading the article itself, it seems more of a comment on general discrimination that Korean nail salon workers have committed rather than an article on Korean nail salon workers, neither of which I believe deserves an article (can be divided into Racism in Korea, Asian Americans/Korean Americans respectively). However, seeing that the article is unable to fit into any of the articles mentioned due to it's highly specific and niche "newspaper"-like topics, deletion is not an unreasonable course of action.

  Delete Strange combination of OR and combining several articles to suit a story idea. Nail salons are a thing, not sure why Korean workers there are notable. Oaktree b (talk) 02:47, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

• Comment I suppose the NOTNEWS criticism rests on the question of the endurance of the situation described. Apart from that, the title is missing an "in the US" qualifier. It feels a bit WP:UNDUE as it's only part of the situation of Immigrant workers in the United States, but since we don't have an article on that topic, I can't propose a merge; maybe it could be draftified and parts of it used as a basis for one? small jars tc 09:19, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
