Subcategories should be renamed in the format Category:People of the United Kingdom of xxxxxxx descent, consitent with parent. Josh (talk) 00:45, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support in general, but:
Comment 1: This should include the sub-subcategories with similar names.
Comment 2: Not all subcats would fit the proposed naming (for example, Clans of Ireland and Clans of Scotland). Also, are we sure that categories like "<Foo> people in <location>" (Spanish people of England, Bulgarians in the United Kingdom, Romani people in the United Kingdom, etc.) aren't for people of the indicated nationality or ethnicity that are located in the UK, but have not become British? Some may be refugees in the UK who are still citizens of their countries of origin. --Auntof6 (talk) 01:08, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think being resident includes you in "People of the United Kingdom" regardless of citizenship, no? - Themightyquill (talk) 09:39, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"People of xyz descent of the United Kingdom" sounds more natural, right? RZuo (talk) 12:11, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
