- Redirect to 2005 Macanese legislative election#Results (with the history preserved under the redirect), where the New Youth of Macau (Chinese: 澳門新青年; Portuguese: Nova Juventude de Macau) is mentioned, per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. This 2005 Macanese legislative election document confirms that the New Youth of Macau received 263 votes, which is 2.02% of the vote total, in that election. I did not find evidence that the New Youth of Macau participated in other elections. If they did, an alternative redirect target is List of political parties in Macau which could discuss all the elections the group participated in.

- Oppose redirect as nom - "New youth of Macau" is not a likely search term, and anyone searching it is just as likely to be looking for stories about modern-day Macanese young people than this party that stood for election once, got very few votes, and disappeared without making any demonstrable impact. Edit history is always preserved and if sources can be found then the article can be refunded or recreated using those sources, but in this case none of the edits would actually be useful to a future editor who has found such sources. Accept that a redirect is still better than leaving up this completely unreferenced article though. FOARP (talk) 10:36, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
- I support a redirect per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion because besides disambiguation pages, "New Youth of Macau" is mentioned in only 2005 Macanese legislative election#Results and List of political parties in Macau. The mention in 2005 Macanese legislative election#Results has more details: how the political party performed in that legislative election and what its Chinese and Portuguese names are. This makes the election page the best place for this title to point to. I did a Google Search for "New Youth of Macau" and did not find the term used outside of the context of this political party. The edit history is useful because it contains information about the political party which can be helpful for searching for sources. Once the history is deleted, a non-admin editor needs to ask an admin to undelete it to see the contents. I would prefer to retain the history so that there is no friction to obtaining the article contents. Cunard (talk) 01:14, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect per ATD and a way for people to learn about the party without them having their own article. TartarTorte 20:25, 19 January 2022 (UTC)]
