Category talk:Lists of Russian people

Untitled
I don't understand the purpose of this category. Is this a category of ethnic Russians or a category of citizens of the Russian Federation? Tuvans are not Russians nor are Tatars or Chuvash people. Or are you going to have a list of Russian Russians? --Stacey Doljack Borsody (talk) 22:39, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The purpose of the category is to sub-categorize Russia-related lists as it becomes more populated (as has been done for other major countries in the same manner) and should include all relevant lists of people. We have chosen to name the country as Russia whose citizens are Russians; Tuva is part of the country so Tuvans (by nationality) are Russians by our definition, and there is no logical problem with the category. However, I created this category with misgivings and share your concern. As a justifiable exception to the conventions for other countries, perhaps Lists of people of Russian nationality or Lists of people of the Russian Federation would be better? I would be happy to support a change. Regards (Crusoe8181 (talk) 09:50, 22 August 2009 (UTC)).
