Why the table? edit

From the standpoint of surname documentation, the national and/or ethnic origin of people bearing the surname is important. The content included in the table is not original research, but drawn from each of the articles referenced. I see this as no different than adding the occupation and perhaps using "American actress" instead of "actress", for example. The addition of table format and sortability is simply to assist in surname studies and to provide more structure to the page. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:21, 2 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
