'Massachusettsan?' Having grown up and lived here for many decades, I have never once heard this term. 'Bay Stater' is the default, and by far the most commonly used, demonym. This is also on Wiktionary [1]

I've removed Pennsylvania Dutch and Pennsylfaanier. These were added without sources by an IP in 2020. "Pennsylfaanier" was later sourced, but is nothing but "Pennsylvanian" in Pennsylvania Dutch. Pennsylvania Dutch is not a general demonym for inhabitants of Pennsylvania. It's a specific ethnic group. Meters ( talk) 06:14, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
Pennsylvania Dutch: Pennsylfaanier. "Pennsylvania Dutch" was followed by a colon, indicating it is the language in which the following word is from. BilCat ( talk) 07:12, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
If any updates to the maps are needed, reply in this topic so I get a notification and can get on it ASAP. Thanks! HMElza ( talk) 16:27, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
I am suggesting that we remove the source "netstate.com" and re-source or remove any information from that source under the general Wikipedia Reliable Sources policy. This website itself does not have national recognition, notable authors nor sources for its own materials. If no contest, I'll contribute the change.

looks like there's been quite a few folks who have tried to edit the page to replace the gpo-official "connecticuter" with "nutmegger"; i've reverted the most recent such edit so that the page is once again accurate, but based on this and the discussion above, it might be prudent to add some clarifying text regarding the GPO standards and common usage? i am going to attempt as much but i figured it would probably be helpful to have more of a discussion on this than just a contextless edit
