I hate to break it to ya, but Baspque Americans, and Castillian Americans are not Anglo. Yet they are European. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.145.87.237 (talk) 13:36, 15 June 2009 (UTC) bale mehe warenReply

this is not the place to discuss who isn't what ethnicity somebody is or isn't. Nor should it be anywhere. You're clearly a troll seeking to illicit controversy 2603:8001:5800:A8B8:E4FB:635:F8F:2A0D (talk) 18:35, 17 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

I agree with what the previous poster said. This part of the definition is problematic: "Anglo-American- a person who is European American or English Canadian". Why? Because there are People of Color (meaning non-White people, including people of who are of White/non-White mixture) who are European American and English Canadian. This definition would have been more correct if it said Anglo-Americans is another word for white (also written White)people.Folklorist8 (talk) 14:40, 26 September 2009 (UTC))Reply

To clarify, there are people in Europe and Canada who are not considered White (Anglos). Therefore the definition "Anglo-American- a person who is European American or English Canadian descent" is not accurate.

All definitions equal? (short answer: no)

Some of these definitions are clearly more common than others. This disambiguaton page can be safely divided into two "sections", no?

Namely:

Anglo-American usually refers to:

X
X
X

It can also be used to refer to:

X
X
X

Implying that use of the term for "a person from Anglo-America" is just as common as for an implied relationship between England and the United States (which is the obvious primary usage for the term) is nonsense. --SchutteGod (not logged in) 68.8.189.60 (talk) 18:09, 16 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
