Categories edit

This "ethnic group" is inexistent in all relevant articles: eg here, here, here, here, here and here. There is no legal recognition, it's not in common use, there's any consensus about this definition, status and composition. In Italy there are hundreds of romance languages ​​and dialects, none of which creates an "ethnic group". Even the so-called (of course, so-called) Proporzionale etnica in South Tyrol asks the linguistic affiliation, not an ethnicity: and in any case it's irrelevant because this article isn't called Ladin people of South Tyrol, and we are not doing original research or political rallies. The proper category is Italian people, like any other population composed only by Italian citizens, who all live in Italy, born and raised here. --Felisopus (talk) 19:15, 11 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Dear Felisopus, ethnicity is a social contruct, whose existance is not necessarily bound to a legal framework. There is a academic source in the article which explicitly talks on more than 200 pages about the Ladin ethnicity. Here are several hundred other sources. Since your argumentation is based on Wikipedia articles (no comment...) and some thoughts which are apparently your personal beliefs, I have reinserted the category and added an additional source for the ethnicity of the Ladins. --Mai-Sachme (talk) 19:27, 11 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Well, there's academic literature about ladin ethincity - what else do you need? We should accept that. Please Felisopus do not start another edit-war on the basis of false and unproved assumptions.--Sajoch (talk) 01:24, 12 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

How are Ladins an ethnicity? edit

Ladins genetically and culturally have nothing different from the other Tyroleans, and they historically were always united to Tyrol. They just conserved a neo-Latin language but this doesn’t differentiate them from Trentine Venetians or Austrians, as they also feel part of this two. 5.91.22.177 (talk) 12:09, 3 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Please read Ethnic group. --Mai-Sachme (talk) 20:34, 3 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
