Wikipedia talk:EII

This is an attempt at putting together some of the things I've been saying over and over agains the last few days. The form was inspired to a considerable extent by WP:Ethnicity is not notable, a n essay by another editor. Basically, I think that essay is altogether  incorrect, both as a statement of what we do and as a n opinion of what we ought to do. I'm particularly concerned by the shortcut to it, which is, WP:ETHNICITYISNOTABLE, saying just the opposite of the essay. It was possibly intended as an "argument to avoid", but it comes across at first reading as being deceptive. I'm also concerned at the misuse of


 * WP: Biographies of living persons (and Categorization of people)

which, as it says, only applies to the relatively sensitive subjects of religious beliefs and sexual orientations (and,in any case only with respect to living people) as if it applied to ethnicity. It does not.  DGG ( talk ) 06:32, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
