Sorted by?

Hi - it isn't actually clear how this is sorted. The link is to Country of birth of parents but that figure isn't usually used in the articles. We are quite good at quoting country of birth and ancestry statistics. My preferences is for country of birth to drive the ranking. --Matilda talk 07:31, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

I made all the bolded ancestries in number order, but the other ones are just random i think. They are by ancestry if you guessed, and aboriginals at the top for obvious reasons. PMK1 (talk) 13:19, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Now sorted by ancestry reposnses in 20680-Ancestry by Country of Birth of Parents per link in template --Matilda talk 07:23, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Why is the british one anyway bold, no matter what group u click on? 60.224.3.243 (talk) 18:44, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Sudanese

Shouldn't Sudanese be listed under Africa as opposed to Asia - West? Egyptian, which is closer to the Middle East/Asia is listed under Africa. GizzaDiscuss © 07:31, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

I've gone ahead and made the change. In my opinion this was an obvious mistake but anyone is entitled to talk about it here if they wish. GizzaDiscuss © 11:20, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

North African and Middle Eastern

According to Australian Standard Classification of Cultural and Ethnic Groups (ASCCEG)[1] the follwing is a list of ethnic groups belonging to the category of North African and Middle Eastern:

ARAB: Algerian, Egyptian, Iraqi, Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Lebanese, Libyan, Moroccan, Palestinian, Saudi Arabian, Syrian, Tunisian, Yemeni, Bahraini, Emirati, Omani, Qatari, Arab, nec
JEWISH: Jewish
Peoples of the Sudan: Bari, Darfur, Dinka, Nuer, South Sudanese, Sudanese, Peoples of the Sudan, nec
Other North African and Middle Eastern: Berber, Coptic, Iranian, Kurdish, Turkish, Assyrian, Chaldean, Mandaean, Nubian, Yezidi, Other North African and Middle Eastern, nec

So according to this, the above Ethnic Groups are NOT Asian Australian and instead should be classified as North African and Middle Eastern respectfully. SCN 1999 (talk) 03:40, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
