In Category talk:Anglo-Burmans, Anglo-Burmese people is cited as explaining Category:Anglo-Burmans (in addition to Category:British people of Burmese descent). So I decided to take a look at this article.
The article starts (with my emphases):
"Community" can mean many things, but it does strongly suggest some sort of social cohesiveness. (If it lacks this, then we might as well say ''The Anglo-Burmese, also known as the Anglo-Burmans, are Eurasians of Burmese and European descent etc etc.) Anyway, it's strongly suggested that these Anglo-Burmese/Burmans aren't merely people of mixed Burmese/Burman and British/English ancestry.
The article continues:
What's happened to the "community"? Do you have to be in some sort of community to be Anglo-Burmese, or do you merely need to have one or more Burmese great grandparents and one or more British great grandparents?
As I vaguely understand it, Richard Beckinsale merely had one Burmese grandparent, but otherwise wasn't Burmese in the slightest; and his two daughters each merely had one Burmese great grandparent. Does this render them "Anglo-Burman" or "Anglo-Burmese" in any meaningful way?
The second passage above continues:
Which technicalities are involved here? This seems to imply that they are somehow less Anglo-Burmese than are the sisters Beckinsale. I don't understand this. -- Hoary ( talk) 01:32, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
Does "Anglo-Burmese" include British people who happen to be of minor Burmese descent (e.g. the Beckinsale family), or doesn't it? If it does, let the article say so clearly. If it doesn't, then let's cut the (mostly unsourced) list of minor British celebs from the last part of the article. -- Hoary ( talk) 02:32, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
We were told that among famous Anglo-Burmese people:
The last sentence is directly ripped off from the geneological page cited. (Slow connection; try this Wayback Machine copy instead.) In contrast to most of the British slebs listed, she actually sounds significantly Burmese. However, there's no article about her. If she's notable, write an article about her. Meanwhile, she doesn't merit listing here. -- Hoary ( talk) 02:32, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
I deleted the sentence, Most who remained after 1962 adopted Burmese names, and converted to
Buddhism to protect their families, jobs and assets, because it has no reference and it is insulting to Burmese culture. I don't know who the stupid wrote that sentence. Nobody is need to convert to
Buddhism to protect their families, jobs, assets or whatever. Burmese have never forced others to convert their religion to Buddhism. There are so many Muslim, Hindu and other non-Buddhist and non-Burmese people are living and working peacefully in
Yangon. Another sentence also misinformed or uncleanly written that Burma was part of India Empire. Burma was part of India only after Brutish colonizations cos British merged Burma into India for a period of time. Otherwise, any part of Burma was never occupied by India but Burma occupied parts of India and Bangladesh,
Manipur,
Assam and
Chittagong just before British colonization.

Can anyone find a source where distribution of Europeans and Anglo-Burmese by administrative divisions in 1931/1941 censuses are shown? And some modern info about the same? I'm interested in knowing the numbers of Europeans and Anglo-Burmese in Shan, Kayah, Kachin, Mon states and in Tanitharyi (Tenasserim) regions and in corresponding regions during British Burma period (1931/1941). I've googled a lot, but to no avail. RickyRr ( talk) 10:40, 10 June 2016 (UTC)RickyRR RickyRr ( talk) 10:40, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
