Talk:History of Asian Australians

North African and Middle Eastern

edit

According to Australian Standard Classification of Cultural and Ethnic Groups (ASCCEG)[1] the follwing is a list of ethnic groups belonging to the category of North African and Middle Eastern:

ARAB: Algerian, Egyptian, Iraqi, Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Lebanese, Libyan, Moroccan, Palestinian, Saudi Arabian, Syrian, Tunisian, Yemeni, Bahraini, Emirati, Omani, Qatari, Arab, nec
JEWISH: Jewish
Peoples of the Sudan: Bari, Darfur, Dinka, Nuer, South Sudanese, Sudanese, Peoples of the Sudan, nec
Other North African and Middle Eastern: Berber, Coptic, Iranian, Kurdish, Turkish, Assyrian, Chaldean, Mandaean, Nubian, Yezidi, Other North African and Middle Eastern, nec

So according to this, the above Ethnic Groups are NOT Asian Australian and instead should be classified as North African and Middle Eastern respectfully. SCN 1999 (talk) 03:40, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Proposed Structure of Article

edit

Instead of having the histories being divided by ethnic group/ ancestry perhaps we change it to this:

  • Pre-history migration (2300 BCE–2000 BCE)
  • Pre-colonial era (1627–1787 CE)
    • Early arrivals
  • Colonial era (1788–1900 CE)
    • Indentured labour (1848 to 1853)
    • Gold rush (1850s and 1860s)
  • Since Federation (1901-present)
    • During the White Australia policy (1901-1973 CE)
      • World War II (1941-1945)
      • Post-war immigration
        • The Colombo Plan
    • Since the end of the White Australia policy (1973-1999)
      • Phasing out of exclusionary policies
      • Mass migration of Indochinese refugees, 1970-80s
      • Settlement of Lao people in Australia, 1990s
      • Re-migration and multiculturalism
    • 21st century
      • New waves of Asian immigration (2000–present)
  • Timeline of key legislation and judicial rulings

Moving of some content to "Asian Immigration to Australia"

edit

I think that immigration is mention too much throughout the article I will be moving most of this to the article Asian immigration to Australia. I think this is the appropriate response, otherwise it becomes a long list. AverageFraud (talk) 11:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
