Clarification
I think this category should be redefined as, Mexicans who are pure Spanish, and have no mixed blood. This category cannot be defined as Mexicans of Spanish descent as most Mexicans have Spanish blood in them. Please rid wikipedia of this since it is truly ignorant. Have the category Spanish Mexicans, Basque Mexicans etc, but no Mexicans of Spanish Descent. I mean jesus, Carlos Vela is on here, you might as well put every other Mexican in Wikipedia on here (unless fully indigenous). —Preceding

<<Well, i DO consider them un-needed, as well as some other other "Mexican American actors">> etc.
Well, that is fine, but unless you provide a reason for you considering them unnecessary, then you must understand that I may disagree. I have explained to you why
Category:Spanish Mexicans may not provide much information, since most Mexicans do have Spanish blood in them.
Category:Basque Mexicans, etc. do provide more information, since the region of Spain is being mentioned. If you have noticed... there is no
Category British Americans, but in turn there are
Category:Welsh-Americans and
Category:Scottish-Americans.
It is natural to assume that others will agree with our point of view. However, it is not enough of an argument to oppose changes.
<<and you're not the only one who edits here so don't get mad if i make a few changes to your articles/categories.>>
I am very well aware of that, I don't get "mad" if someone makes changes to "my" articles/categories (they are not really mine). What I do mind is edits with no edit summary.
"If you don't like it then sorry but don't edit."
Yeah, there's always that option. --

According to wikipedia, the
United Kingdom is a country.
Catalonia is an autonomous region with its own language. Basques come from the Basque Country with its own language.
Galicia has its own language as well. --

Of course the
United Kingdom is a country, but so are the ones within it (they are called
Nations or
constituent countries). So, just because this Spanish region is called "
Basque Country", you think it's officially a country? I'm guessing you also think the Brazilian state of "
Rio de Janeiro" is really a river because it's called "Rio", right? Well, as i said before,
Galicia,
Catalonia, etc. are kind of like states. Also, just because a certain region has it's own language, it doesn't make it a country. There's plenty of different indigenous languages in
Mexico. Does that mean that the regions they are spoken in are also considered countries? I think not. >>>

Unless they belong to an indigenous ethnicity- which make up less than 10% of the population, virtually all Mexicans can be presumed to be of Spanish descent, as the rest of the population (90%) is considered mestizo, which is the mix of the Native American and Caucasian race, predominantly Spanish. — Preceding
