James Burke science historian Hi The problem at James Burke science historian is that the link you ve added leads to White which is about the colour white not about the ethnicity If you had linked to white people that would make more sense Always remember to check your work However the ethnicity field in the infobox seems quite bizarre to me As you said about caucasian it s an outdated racial categorisation and I havne t seen it used before in other articles I m going to remove it entirely from that article until I get some feedback from the folks who know about these things at Template talk Infobox Person Ethnicity Hope that helps Thanks
