Comment The one problem I see with this suggestion is that we are talking about 3 different and distinct definitions.Mormonsim refers to the commonly shared beliefs of all religious sects that trace their origins back to the Church originally organized in New York in 1830 by oseph Smith. The Latter Day Saint movement refers to all sects tracing their origins back to the church started by Joseph Smith, with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Community of Christ being the largest denominations within that movement. So switching all references of the Latter Day Saint movement to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints overlooks the fact that the Latter Day Saint movment has more denominations than just that largest sect. J. That being said, anything relating to the largest sect of that movement following the 1844 succession crisis can and should be classified as relating specifcally to that church. ust wanted to mention that here

In this case I was merely removing this Sri Lanka only parent itself, treating Burgher and Sinhalese as international'ish diasporas (like Jews). It would be painful for some of these country-ethnicity subcategories. For example,
Category:Sri Lankan Chetties are mostly in
Category:Sri Lankan Chetty people by occupation, which is a container, so upmerge isn't allowed to it. Although
Category:Sri Lankan Chetty civil servants has only 1 article, he is the founder of the entire Sri Lankan civil service. So there's no good way to handle without deleting the whole Sri Lankan Chetty people by occupation tree and upmerging 2 or 3 levels.

Comment The challenge is that the main article is
Ute people and that naming is, quite understandibly, used for the biography subcategory. Would lean toward
Category:Ute since the ambiguity would be blunted as I don't think readers/editors would expect the other meanings to have a category, but there's not perfect solution to this one. -

Nominator's rationale: Per previous renaming discussions
here and
here, "tribe" should be dropped from categories related to Native American peoples wherever possible.

Oppose.
Ute is a disambiguation page.

Comment The challenge is that the main article is
Ute people and that naming is, quite understandibly, used for the biography subcategory. Would lean toward
Category:Ute since the ambiguity would be blunted as I don't think readers/editors would expect the other meanings to have a category, but there's not perfect solution to this one. -

I'd still like someone with more expertise than me to confirm whether
San Pitch Utes and
White River Utes are sub-groups of the Ute tribe. If they are not, then I think a more precise disambiguator would be desirable. Otherwise, I'm fine with "ethnic group".

I'm fine with whatever is decided as I'm not familiar at all with this subject. I just opposed the non-disambiguated name.
