Hi John, since Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_September_4#Category:People_of_the_Russian_Empire we are using "from" rather than "of". Please do not create any more new categories using "People of".
But we have not changed them all over yet, so before creating new "People from" categories such as Category:People from the British West Indies, please check whether "People of" is currently in use, in which case please use it for now. – Fayenatic London 13:33, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
