Hello. Your change might be perfectly valid, but the last thing we need is yet another category naming format for one ethnic group, which simply creates more problems. These categories are enough of a mess without adding yet another naming format, reslting in new inconsistencies. A given how many opinions there are among Commons contributors about how best to name and categorize these subcats, this is something that should arise from a discussion. I'd be very supportive of any effort to standardize category naming in a new format, but it should be done across the board for all such categories, and after a discussion. If it is only done piecemeal, then we should stick to the old category names, because randomly adding yet another format doesn't help. Hope that makes sense.
