Immigrant to Tuvalu edit

I am not sure this category makes sense when it did not have that name then. Since he had been away from Britain for 10 years at that point, directly putting him in one category does not make sense. All the more so because we only have 3 articles in the Immigrants to Tuvalu category, so it makes no sense to subdivide that category at all.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:42, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

I also think he should not be in the British Immigrants to Tuvalu category. He had been in Canada for 10 years before coming to the Ellice Islands, now Tuvalu. Saying he was either British or Vanadian at that point I believe is stating more than our sources allow.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:02, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

As I mentioned on your talk page[1], his defining characteristic places him squarely in the British emigrants to Tuvalu category. Mason (talk) 14:43, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
