white supremacist

Per white supremacy. --Atitarev 01:11, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, I was just about to bring that up for discussion myself. :) It seems to be the only "supremacist" term with an entry, besides "brown supremacist" which I mentioned above. - -sche (discuss) 01:40, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

• Keep if white supremacy is kept.  --Lambiam 13:30, 28 June 2018 (UTC) — Motivation: easily attested in durably archived sources since at least 1991 and clearly in widespread use; not SOP, since a white supremacist is not a supremacist who happens to be white. So it meets our CFI.  --Lambiam 08:10, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Split from the discussion about white supremacy (which can be closed) above: Wiktionary:Requests for deletion/English § white supremacy. This one needs further discussion. Per utramque cavernam 10:45, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

• Keep - definitely an idiom that is notable and in use in modern English, lots of supporting quotes in various media. The terms "brown supremacist" or "yellow supremacist" or "blue supremacist" would fail due to lack of use and lack of notability. The idiom "white supremacy" is the ideology and "white supremacist" is the individual(s) that subscribe to the ideology. IQ125 (talk) 13:27, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
