List of people with color blindnessList of colorblind people – "Colorblind people" seems to both be more commonly used and considered more grammatically correct than "people with color blindness". The latter is also the more popular search term on Google Trends. ⓋᎯ☧ǿᖇǥ@ℤε💬 11:28, 29 January 2020 (UTC) Relisting. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:51, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • Disagree because it is not "more commonly used" as a category title on Wikipedia. In fact, almost every disability is categorized using "with", except for "blind people" and "deaf people" because naturally it would be awkward to categorize those using "with" and thus they should be the only rationally justifiable exceptions. Let's not go messing with long-established category formats. --Nicholas0 (talk) 18:44, 29 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Support more concise and idiomatic English. buidhe 22:28, 3 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose. I prefer the current formulation, as it simply describes the fact that the person has the condition, whereas "colorblind person" makes it sound like something that defines them. I have color blindness myself but other than the fact that I probably can't be an airline pilot, it doesn't affect my life at all and I rarely think about it.  — Amakuru (talk) 12:13, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose per @Nicholas0's point. Sleath56 (talk) 18:21, 11 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Pictures edit

Instead of only including a few pictures on the side, would it be better to include pictures (where available) for all people named in the table? Ggdivhjkjl (talk) 14:51, 13 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
