Does it bother you that Im making this change I know Im fairly new yet Im pretty good with computer code. If you can see this, changing the ethnicity of Black to African to encompass all people of African descent i.e. Carribean, America, especially considering the formality of other ethnicities and the fact that the term Black usually only means people of African-American descent. In addition changing the name of the two seperate ethnicities Latina & Black into one group Afro-Latina since people of Afro-Latina descent usually refer to themselves as such. | Does it bother you that Im making this change I know Im fairly new yet Im pretty good with computer code.

:I have no problem. The only thing that bothers me is that, if changing Black to African, doesn't approve here. Then reverting all the changes will be an inconvience. Like I said before, wait until you get the approval of the change. I've seen editors, make new categories and get deleted because it wasn't in need. Then those changes had to be reverted. "Afro-Latina" would considered [[Mixed race]]. Which is why there's 2 ethnicities entries on the biobox. [[User:Apara|Apara]] 04:40, 11 August 2008 (EDT) | :I have no problem.

Then something like Eruasian shouldnt exist either plus techically speaking Afro-Latina doesnt neccessary mean a person of mixed race it also means a person of full blood African descent from a place like Cuba where they are part of Latino culture yet discintevly African in their aperance. To be honest also there really should be category for each combination of ethnicity so its easier to narrow down. | |||

Yeah perhaps but this has been bugging me. If you can see this, changing the ethnicity of Black to African to encompass all people of African descent i.e. Carribean, America, etc.
If you can see this been changing the ethnicity of Black to African to encompass all people of African descent i.e. Carribean, America, etc.
- Well, I'm just letting you know. Since the admins (Honorable or Hex) might not agree with the change or any other editors besides myself.
Does it bother you?
