I have a difficulty in understanding this categorization with its subcat, parents, ethnicity/Britain cats (which seem duplicated to me) all or most made by one user. E4024 (talk) 00:20, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it seems to me that Category:British people of Asian descent‎ should be moved up to the parent categories. --Auntof6 (talk) 00:32, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
And what about having Category:Ethnic groups in the United Kingdom and Category:British people by ethnic or national origin at the same time? Common(s) people (like a servant) gets confused how to categorize with so many "subtleties". (Or "whatever" it is called.) --E4024 (talk) 00:42, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I propose deletion. It's a UK specific term used in their census, but despite its name, it strictly refers to South Asians. I would add Category:British Bangladeshi which is redundant with either Category:Bangladeshi diaspora in the United Kingdom‎ or Category:British people of Bangladeshi descent. - Themightyquill (talk) 13:00, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@E4024, Auntof6, and Themightyquill: Closed (this category was emptied at some point, so make it a redirect to Category:British people of Asian descent) Josh (talk) 22:52, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
