If you have an opinion on this, please visit the above listing. I find it a striking and apropos photograph -- but I'm the guy who posted it. Thanks, Pete Tillman ( talk) 00:17, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
This article's content about Samoans is highly speculative - And not very scholarly... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.114.58.46 ( talk) 21:56, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
I have to question how much sense this categorization makes, since parts of Polynesia ARE parts of America. Hawaii and American Samoa, as examples. "Mexican Americans", for example, makes sense because Mexico is entirely outside of America. Gringo300 ( talk) 19:59, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
What I find bizarre is the grouping of indigenous Australians with Pacific Islanders. They are hardly any closer to the Polynesian, Micronesian and Melanesian peoples than Europeans are. I don't know about their links with Papuans. Koro Neil ( talk) 13:04, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
Presently all the pictured politicians are Democrats, this maybe a violation of WP:NEU and/or WP:WEIGHT due to there being notable Republican Pacific Islander Americans. -- RightCowLeftCoast ( talk) 01:53, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
I was unable to find any information about the number of Pacific Islanders in the U.S. Virgin Islands. On the U.S. Census Bureau website's "U.S. Virgin Islands Demographic Profile", they list Pacific Islanders within the group "other" — this group "other" contains other ethnic groups, so its data can't be used.
