Talk:Ethnic enclave

message: I don't see much evidence of a connection between this article and research on ethnic enclaves. You know, Portes, etc.  --Htw3 04:11, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where is the research? 

message: Off to a decent start but there is room for improvement.
* You need to cite your source on the first sentence of the page.
* You should probably include information about how ethnic enclaves impact relations between immigrant communities and broader American society.
* Another question you may address is whether or not the nature of ethnic enclaves has changed over time. For instance, have some types of ethnic enclaves vanished? Have new types arisen? How has changing technology impacted ethnic enclaves? (Think about how things like satelite television and the internet have enabled immigrants to stay in touch with their home countries.)
* Finally you could investigate how ethnic enclaves impact the rate of assimilation of different cultures.
Otherwise keep up the good work.

thread_title:  Notes 

message: I'm not sure if it works to go back and forth in describing the buildup of ethnic enclaves in the US vs. other countries.  The timing has been different. While some principles may be the same, there is also sufficient variation to make it too much of a generalization. If there is going to be an attempt to cover all ethnic enclaves in one article, there should be more history given (immigration and ethnic enclaves didn't start in the late 19th or 20th c.), and it should be clear when references are for US locations, or for other nations.--Parkwells (talk) 20:00, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: In Wikipedia, we can't CHOOSE, unless we want to move the page to Ethnic enclaves in the US. If it's to remain at the current title, it must adopt a global perspective.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.251.67.67 (talk) 22:10, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: About Section

message: Say, should Franschhoek be included in here? It's a town in South Africa which has been around for a few hundred years and its name means 'French Corner' (in old Dutch) as it was the land that was given to French Huguenot families by the Dutch settlers in South Africa in 1688.

thread_title:  Franschhoek? 

message: In agreement with the aforementioned suggestions, Michelle Rice and I propose to expand on the "Ethnic enclaves in the United States" section of this article. Our contribution is part of a class assignment. Our objective is to improve the quality of this article, and as such we welcome any comments or suggestions to our proposed edits. Our revisions will include a focus on theory and rely heavily on scholarly knowledge from existing discourse on the topic. 
Our proposed outline is as follows:
Assimilation through ethnic enclaves
* Theories on cultural assimilation (hyperlink to section on Second generation immigrants in the United States)
 
* Barriers and buffers to assimilation
Mobility
 
* Social
  
* Economic (hyperlink to immigration section in Economic mobility)
Modes of Incorporation
  
* Economic
  
* Social/Civil
  
* Political
Enclave Debate
We will be drawing on work conducted by a variety of scholars including Alejandro Portes, Douglas Massey, Cecilia Menjivar, George Borjas, and Ruben Rumbaut. The aim of our contribution is to provide clear and reliable information regarding ethnic enclaves in the US, differentiating this information from the unclear focus of the rest of the article.

thread_title: Revision of Ethnic Enclaves in the United States

message: Two deletion debates going on now at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Sydney_ethnic_enclaves and Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2013_August_15#Category:Ethnic_enclaves_in_Australia have some arguing over what counts as an ethnic enclave.  How many reliable sources do you need calling something an "ethnic enclave", and is there another way to prove it is one?  Does it count as original research to just mention communities whose census data shows have a high percentage of an ethnic group in it?  Dream Focus 17:40, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Another editor has pointed out that in the strictest sense, Australia doesn't really have enclaves like the US does because our immigration policies developed differently (you had "give us your huddled masses", we had the White Australia policy) and so the term "enclave" in Australian English has been bastardised (in a manner of speaking) and is now used in the context of racism. By the time anything resembling actual "enclaves" appeared in Australia, they were tourist areas with kitsch "attractions" (like the gateway at the entrance of Chinatown, Sydney) or stereotyped caricatures (like those throughout "Little Italy" in Melbourne). I don't have a problem with US locations being described that way, but there needs to be an understanding that in Australia, it means something else. Stalwart111 02:06, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  definition of an ethnic enclave 

message: To help orient this article to a World View, I propose having  "Ethnic Enclaves in the United States and Canada" becomes a separate article and begin changing the language in this article towards a global, broad concept of "ethnic enclaves".  Ideally we would have ethnic enclaves article for each continent or region, and briefly touch upon the differences in policy, economics, culture, society, and demographics here.

:If such a split is to be done, there ought to be more in the relevant sections. Perhaps a good start would be to make more continental, regional and national sections, and move specific ideas that are more relevant to a particular place into their particular sections.

thread_title:  Nominate this article to be split 

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Ethnic enclave's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "fact-sheet":
From New York City: * 
* 
* 
*

From Chinese people in New York City: *

From Chinatown:

From Chinatown, Manhattan: *

From Little Fuzhou: *

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 13:44, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
