Populations

edit

Northfield, Vermont is 11% Dominican? I think that's a mistake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Edward77x (talkcontribs) 10:30, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Populaiton of Dominican americans in Kansas City metro area is known to be at 3,000+ acording to the local Dominican association 65.163.203.130 18:39, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ok why are there two numbers for population? Clearly the Dominican-American population is more than 1.2 million, so why is that the number in the box? Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nycstudent578 (talkcontribs) 22:11, 11 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

That 3 million figure goes back to these edits, [1] and [2], a couple of months ago, with numbers which appear to have been made up. I've just replaced them with the ACS numbers. SamEV (talk) 21:15, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

The Bronx is 20% dominican... your're kidding me right. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.202.99.50 (talk) 21:06, 13 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

And what do you suppose is 20% of the Bronx's population?... Here's your answer:
20% * 1,357,589[3] = 271,517.8. So how does that support the claim of 3 million Dominican Americans? SamEV (talk) 00:12, 16 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Incorrect listing of Dominican Americans

edit

The section lists many dominicans as Dominican Americans. Jack Veneno, Alex Bueno and many others in the list were born and raised in the Dominican Republic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.80.235.45 (talk) 14:15, 21 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Dominicans who have immigrated to the United States are considered Dominican American. If you come from the Dominican Republic and you are a citizen of the United States, you're Dominican American. I'm pretty sure a Dominican immigrant counts in the census numbers as a Dominican American.--Work permit (talk) 19:11, 5 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
Dominican Americans are Dominicans who came here at young age and were raised in the US. Or were born in the US to Dominican Parents — Preceding unsigned comment added by DA Fernandez (talkcontribs) 19:58, 12 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

I lot of those people had gotten American Citizenship so even if they weren't born in the US the are still Dominican Americans legally speaking — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.115.33.56 (talk) 23:30, 23 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

I removed some content in the "Crime" section regarding Santiago Luis Polanco Rodríguez. There is no difference between him and other Dominican-Americans that committed crimes. The sources used make no mention that he is of any significance to the Dominican American community. --Pink Bull (talk) 22:16, 3 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

update racial results of 2010 census
why u still got the one from 1990 up.. that was 20 years ago — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.194.239.60 (talk) 23:39, 17 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I think the racial classification is wrong, I looked at antother page and it has the black and white figures reversed. I'm not going to change it because I don't know which is correct but, someone should look into that and the page on Hispanic and Latino Americans. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.64.104.4 (talk) 12:16, 25 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Montage

edit

I changed it up a bit added some more recognized people. I don't anyone knows who Tristan Wilds but people definitely know Julia Alvarez, Junot Diaz, etc. I'm new to these things so it does look a little weird but I feel it is a definite improvement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DA Fernandez (talkcontribs) 01:59, 7 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

everyone knows Trsitan Wilds, he is only in the most popular teenage Darama of network television in the U.S. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.115.33.56 (talk) 23:32, 23 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

black

edit

Dominican Americans do have the highest proportion of blacks of any hispanic group in the US, especially by "US one-drop rule" standards, so they are the most African. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spreadofknowledge (talkcontribs) 16:55, 4 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

No they are not, and that's now how it works since they identify as other on census survey's and the one drop rule is only limited to African Americans. Akmal94 (talk) 06:44, 23 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Dominican Americans (Dominican Republic)Dominican Americans – Clear primary topic out of two possibilities, the second being sufficiently addressed by a hatnote. The Dominican Republic has a population in excess of ten million people; Dominica has 75,000. There are "approximately 1.41 million people of Dominican descent in the U.S."; for people from descended from the island of Dominica, the number is reckoned by the U.S. Census at about six thousand. bd2412 T 16:06, 2 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Unexplained removal of sourced content

edit

There has been spate of rollbacks by [[User:RichardWeiss]] to the articles Cuban Americans, Dominican Americans, Puerto Ricans in the United States, Brazilian Americans, Chilean Americans, Colombian Americans, Venezuelan Americans, White Hispanic and Latino Americans, Brown (racial classification), Race and ethnicity in Colombia, Discrimination based on skin color, Coloniality of power, Colonial mentality, Racial hierarchy, Racism in South America, and Hispanic and Latino Americans.
These have been undone, since:

If you wish to engage in constructive behavior (e.g. questioning the validity of sources), a good place to start would be on the talk pages of the respective articles. Resorting to random drive-by reverts is generally considered unhelpful. Thanks.

The same highly controversial paragraph has been spammed into 16 different articles. I don't consider the encyclopedia.com source reliable, the article dabs are very poor and the whole paragraph bordering on racist. ♫ RichardWeiss talk contribs 15:34, 15 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
