[edit] Edits in February 2007

About recent changes to this template:

  • This template is not about "Koreans and people in Korea"; the whole point is that every group mentioned are OUTSIDE of Korea
  • The "name" parameter of the template has to match the actual page name, otherwise the "edit" button of the template would be broken
  • There is no continent called "Middle East" nor are the Arab countries collectively referred to as "Arabia" in this century.
  • Templates should point to the actual page names and not redirects, so that when using the template for navigation, the current page's name is displayed in bold
  • There are no such names as "Korean Sakhalinians", "Korean Arabians", or whatever other nonsense has been made up in the name of "standardisation"
  • The North and South American continents are referred to collectively as "The Americas", not "America"
  • The "group/list" function of the navbox should be used to cluster similar items, instead of using ugly manual headers and linebreaks
  • {{·}} does not need a space before it

See other templates of a similar type like {{Iraqi diaspora}}, {{Overseas Vietnamese}}, etc. for best-practise examples. Regards, cab (talk) 00:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
