• An inadequate wisp of an article, too short by character count (at 1495 characters), much too slight in its content, and much too full of unsourced original research for our consideration at DYK. The fact that at least one third of this minimal article is about the United States, but the article does not so much as mention the existence of the much longer and more thorough article Race and ethnicity in the United States Census is just one indication of the deficiencies in this article. --Orlady (talk) 20:41, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
