[edit] Perhaps use category system in place of this article?
It seems to me this article provides no "value-add" to the Wikipedia beyond what the category system can provide. Can anyone make a case for keeping this article? — Stevie is the man! Talk | Work 00:59, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Concerning lists of ethnicities recently removed
The following lists of peoples, List of Finnish Americans, List of Swedish Americans, List of Norwegian Americans, List of Belgian Americans and List of Swiss Americans, have been deleted, as per the following closing arguments, argument 1: editors failed to address why we should have a list and argument 2: editors in a number of cases lacked justification for retaining the list. However, List of Chilean Americans has, as far as I can determine, not been objected to with the use of these arguments and has not been nominated as "trivial categorization". I am therefore reinstating a link to a list of Chilean Americans (created in List of Chile-related topics#Chilean-Americans). This link can be changed later, if someone creates a separate list on the topic (and assuming that such a list is not randomly sent for deletion as well). Pia 04:04, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
