Foreign races → Fremdvölkische – "Foreign races" is not a direct translation of the German term this article is about, nor is it a commonly used one, as far as I am aware. An important book ([1]) on the subject used "Non-Germans" in its title (with quotation marks), but uses the German word, Fremdvölkische, elsewhere, eg in the rest of the back blurb. And it's not very common for these German terms to be Englishified for en-wiki: we do have "master race", I believe, but we have "Lebensraum", "Umvolkung", "Ostarbeiter", etc. Therefore, I propose "Fremdvölkische" as a more appropriate title for this page. asilvering (talk) 20:13, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
- Support. Given this is a specific term only used in the German language, given how poorly it translates and given the ambiguous nature of the current title, a move makes absolute sense. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:29, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
