This is a redirect from a non-specific term to a U.S.-specific article. The phrase "white working class" and the corresponding sociological category is frequently used in the UK and, I imagine, elsewhere. I haven't been able to identify any better targets, and note that an article on this topic was deleted in 2010, so I think this should be deleted. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 21:46, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Most certainly not specific to US, and no good target. A Google search for 'white working class uk' gave 2.9M hits; including, on the first page, full matches from The Guardian, the BBC, The Times and Oxford University. Narky Blert (talk) 06:15, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - I think that 'White working class in the United Kingdom' and 'White working class in the United States' both merit articles, and if/when they're made we can have 'White working class' be a disambiguation page. Until then, deletion seems to be the right call. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 10:10, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
