Category talk:Argentine people of Basque descent

Why is this page being placed in categories suggesting it is part of an Argentine 'diaspora'? The articles listed in this category are Argentines of Basque descent. I cannot think of any Argentines who have become notable in the Basque Country, it is all the other way round. The category, vastly underpopulated, has a President of Argentina, a Mayor of Buenos Aires and Che Guevara, who I can't believe ever visited Spain/France, although you can make a tenuous description of his leaving Argentina as part of a diaspora (his pan-Americanist outlook didn't respect borders though). These are immigrants or descendants of immigrants, not emigrants.

Can you please discuss this further here before changing? Perhaps we need a separate category for Argentines of Basque descent and Basques of Argentine descent but I severely doubt it. Mtiedemann 18:55, 3 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok I now realise that the last change was not a complete revert, but I still think it too complicated and largely unnecessary to have each category 'looking both ways' and in common English parlance, surely they would be Basque-Argentines or Argentine-Basques. In addition, I think 'diaspora' is too strong (ie POV) a term, and many of those that left under the proceso, etc returned. Let's not confuse the terms. Mtiedemann 19:04, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
