Weak delete per nom; lack of non-trivial, reliable sources. There's an interesting mention in a footnote here
[1] about Greek slaves in Havana in the 16th century, and a few more mentions of a pre-
Cuban Revolution Greek community which left in 1959
[2], but I can't locate any in-depth articles about this population.

DeleteWikipedia is
not a directory listing articles with every bilateral combination of persons from country X who live in country Y. A few incidentals in newspapers does not establish that such article are encyclopedic, and the references do not satisfy
WP:N.

Note that the articles are cookie-cutter stubs which fail the same guidelines. Why spend time rewording the same objections to articles which read like they were spewed out by a robot?

When you pasted your comment onto four different AfDs, it looks to me like you didn't even read
Greeks in Poland, which explained the history of the community and listed multiple journal articles in its "References" and "Further reading" sections --- this lack of attention is what likely provoked Ikip to copy-paste his own comment across all these debates.

Weak keep While the numbers of Greeks have fallen to a low level, there appears to have been a more substantial historical community pre-1959. If more on that were included it would seem to pass notabillity.

The whole reason we're all saying "Delete" is because it's not possible to "include more on that" (except by
making it up out of thin air), given that no non-trivial sources have even been demonstrated to exist.

Weak Delete. Not really sure that it's necessary to have an article on the 50 Greek people who live in Cuba.
