Orders, decorations, and medals

[edit]

I'm just curious as to what relevance the Orders, decorations, and medals section has to this navbox. I can't quite see a relation. --Ħ MIESIANIACAL 21:08, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added it because its the complex system by which Canadians are honoured.Moxy (talk) 21:24, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

North/West

[edit]

in the ancestry sction, why is Enlish shown as North Europe and Scotland is shown as West? I would have called them either both North or both West — Preceding unsigned comment added by DC94 (talkcontribs) 20:32, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To move Hong Kong Canadians and Taiwanese Canadians from East Asia to Southeast Asia, and Tibetan Canadians from East Asia to Central Asia, owing to their geographical locations, political NPOV policies of Wikipedia – and, the fact that these Canadians or their parents or grandparents may or may not be Chinese by ethnicity or ancestry, may have left the locations of their ancestral origins before they became Chinese, or may or may not identify themselves as or associate themselves with Chinese. For some Hong Kong-born Canadians in particular, their background my be related to Indochina, the Indian subcontinent, or the Dutch East Indies, and so on. 219.76.24.202 (talk) 12:43, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done. The header is "East and Southeast Asia", so Hong Kong and Taiwan are in their proper category. Tibet is modernly considered East Asia as well. But really, all these groups are lumped together as "ethnic Chinese", Han or minority. I don't really see a problem with NPOV at all.  Ganbaruby! (Say hi!) 01:41, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

::::Some of these people aren't even (ethnic) Chinese minority, e.g., Punjabs, Khmers, and Macanese.[6][7] (And on the "minority" label: not everyone who belongs to any of those 56 or 55 designated groups are Chinese by default. Those groups include Kazakhs, Koreans, Mongols, Russians, Tajiks, Tatars, Uzbeks, Was, Vietnamese, to name a few.) 219.76.24.202 (talk) 10:41, 20 January 2021 (UTC) IP hopping sock.
