Talk:Sneinton

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello,

Firstly I would like to thank you for all your input on Wiki about Nottingham. I was curious about what Wiki had to say about my hometown Sneinton. After reading through the article I found everything there is pretty accurate except for 1 minor detail...

As a member of the Asian community here in Sneinton I can assure you there is not a large population of Bengalis. I know the majority of the Sub-Continent Asians that live here in Sneinton, and I can also honestly say that as far as I'm aware there are only 3 families of Bengalis that occupy Sneinton. One family lives on Ashfield Road, another on Hardstaff and the last on Skipton Circus. I can also provide you with their names but that wouldn't be appropriate to place there names on here. I'm not saying that I know everyone in Sneinton and I'm not ruling out the fact that just maybe there is some other Bengali family that I've never met before living around the corner from me. Regardless of how many Bengalis there are here the fact of the matter is... The hundreds of Asians from the Asian Sub Continent that you'll see here are in fact Pakistanis. The majority of businesses that are in Sneinton are also run by Pakistanis.

The reason I keep changing the Wiki article on Sneinton is because it’s giving a false statement about my hometown. The large population that occupy Sneinton are in fact of Pakistani origin.

I hope this helps and you've come to understand why I keep undoing your changes.

Kind Regards,

Amjad Hussain
