Hello all, I added an image to this page as part of a short-term paid project to share images of a year of culture that was held in Leeds. There's more on the project here and more images to make use of here. Many thanks Lajmmoore (talk) 10:43, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jamessharison, you have removed the text from the OED multiple times now. I don't quite understand your reason, that OED is either unreliable or being used out of context? In which way? Please read WP:BRD, as this may be helpful. I count three separate editors who've reverted these edits in recent days, so it's worth seeking consensus for your changes here.

It is not appropriate for the opening line it’s like putting white British or white Britons it should not be in the opening Jamessharison (talk) 19:55, 1 March 2025 (UTC) ( Blocked sockpuppet of Hssstrt, see investigation)[reply]

Why not? I still can't understand your reasoning on this. Can you explain in more detail? "White British people or white Britons" seems perfectly fine to me, as well. Is it the word "Briton" you object to? Do you perhaps find it offensive for some reason? Appropriateness is determined by what reliable sources say, at any rate, because Wikipedia is WP:NOTCENSORED.

Wouldn't it be more WP:CONSISTENT (with White Irish, White British, and the like) to be called Black British instead of Black British people)? Googabbagabba (talk) 22:26, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to follow the WP:RM process, which will attract other editors, some of whom might have substantial experience in this sort of issue across wikipedia. The current page-name is the result of exactly that process (see Talk:Black British people/Archive 2#Requested move 4 December 2019), so it should not be changed without a new discussion to generate a new WP:CONSENSUS.

Wikipedia doesn't require similar titling between different articles. In general, those articles seem to deal with the subjects primarily as census classifications, rather than as group identities. Black British predates the use as a census classification, so it makes sense it's about the people who use the term rather than the term itself. Lewisguile (talk) 13:34, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
