Talk:Polish diaspora

message: "Polonia" also means Poland in Portuguese, in addition to the languages already listed. It does, however, carry a circumflex, i.e., "Polônia", so I don't know if it disqualifies it for mention in the article. -- tmegapscm 2005-08-07
:"Polonia" is the name for Poland in a whole lot of languages. It wouldn't make sense to list them all here. – Kpalion (talk) 10:07, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Are those descended from Polish Jews considered to be part of Polonia by modern-day Poles?  My Jewish grandmother's parents came from Poland, and they definitely did not consider themselves to be Poles. --Jfruh (talk) 21:51, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It depends on individual cases. I've known both. Basically if you keep up the Polish language and share in some of the culture (music, etc.) then yeah, you're part of the Polonia, broadly defined. It's mostly a matter of self identification. It might also be worth noting that not all Poles living abroad (who still identify themselves as Poles) consider themselves to be part of any "official" Polonia. Sometimes those organizations got their own politics and subculture which can seem strange to, say, more recent, arrivals.radek (talk) 06:59, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Polish Jews 

message: "Diaspora" itself is an ethnic-specific word for the Jewish people outside of Israel and Judah.  And that remains the default meaning unless the word is qualified (e.g. "German diaspora"). Polonia is the loan word with the most specific meaning. Despite my concerns, is there agreement on the rename? RevelationDirect (talk) 01:07, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Hi,
I removed the 15 million because 15 is far too low and impossible, alone the top 4 countries (USA, Germany, Brazil and France) are around 15 million together, 900.000 in White Russia, 500.000 in UK, 450.000 in Argentinia, 300.000 in Lithuania and 300k in Russia, 150.000 in Ireland, 75.000 in Latvia, 100.000 in Italy and very much countries with more than 1.000.
See the graphic (if its not grey you found polish people there) or just check the nice table in the german article (countries with flags and numbers, so you don't need to know 1 word german to understand the list):
From South Africa to Norway or Iceland, from New Zealand to Germany (New Zealand is the country with the largest distance to Germany and I think South Africa and Iceland could be the same)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kilon22 (talk • contribs) 13:52, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The use of national populations as the key to colour an entire country is misleading because it does not reflect the population of the host country.  The United States has 9 times as many people of polish descent as Canada, but it also has 9 times as many of everybody.  I would suggest using circles.  A large circle would represent 1 million poles, a smaller circle (1/3rd the size for example) would represent 100,000, a smaller circle yet 10,000, and so on. Or for less than 100,000 you could use a segment of the 100,000 circle. Jamescobban (talk) 09:58, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

message: The table states 5000 Poles in Denmark, which is supposed to be 0.001% of Denmark's population...
which doesn't make much sense, as it would mean there are 500 million of Danes in total.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by McCartney~plwiki (talk • contribs) 19:49, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Jews 

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 :Polish diaspora'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 "Popt":
From Syrians in Denmark: 
From Eritreans in Denmark: 
From Poles in Sweden: 
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⚡ 13:38, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
