[edit] Ethnic groups

In the Philippines, there is no such thing as a “mestizo ethnic group”. Mestizos are an informal racial grouping, instead. (Please see Ethnic groups in the Philippines for a description of the various ethnic groupings—Bisaya, Tagalog, etc.) Should inclusion of the Filipino mestizo link in the Indo (Eurasian) article be deemed incompatible with the scope of the latter, then I accept the removal of the link to the former. —Lagalag 13:59, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
