Category talk:Canadian Americans
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Proposal
This catagory should become a super-cat under which would be two seperate cats:
- Category:Canadian immigrants to America for people who have moved to the US more or less for good (have US citizenship, etc.) and
- Category:Canadian expatriates in the United States for people who live in the US temporarily.
Either way, the articles in this category (but not in any sub-cats) should be for people of Canadian ancestry only. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kevlar67 (talk • contribs) 21:32, 7 December 2006 (UTC).
- I agree that there should be a category for "Americans of Canadian descent." I'm not sure whether it should be this category, Canadian Americans. I'm still trying to figure out whether this category functions as a catch-all for articles where the person's immigration status is unclear, as well as for Americans of Canadian descent.--Vbd | (Talk) 18:21, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Subcategorising
I've re-read WP:SUBCAT and I remain uncertain about doubling-up on categorisations here. If someone is listed under Category:Canadian immigrants to the United States, should they also be listed here, as a "Canadian American"?--Vbd | (Talk) 18:25, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
