"Single source" edit

I am removing the "single source" warning flag. The United States Census Bureau should be considered as reliable a source as there is for the content of this page. --Thnidu (talk) 17:10, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Afghans are South Asian. edit

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Afghanistan is geographically located mostly in South Asia, while a tiny bit in Central Asia. I wouldn’t consider Afghanistan a Central Asian country just like I wouldn’t consider Egypt a West Asian country or Turkey being a European country. Phenotypically, Afghans look South Asian (they do not look like their Central Asian counterparts, and plus majority of Afghanistan is in South Asia as is the population). And phenotypically Bhutanese people look more East/Southeast Asian than any other South Asian country. There’s so much hypocrisy here but it’s probably based on Islamophobia, the West’s criticism of the Middle East when Afghanistan is South Asian not West Asian, and inaccurate opinions. Geography is more important than geopoliticism guys!! Gatorbearratica (talk) 05:11, 24 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

South Asians are Asian edit

Disagree with the premise that Indians do not consider themselves Asian. According to this finding from Pew Research, 91% of Indian adults consider South Asians to be part of the broader Asian ethnic category:

In addition, according to this article, the majority of Indians and Pakistanis consider themselves Asian:
