Ethnicity lists discussion[edit]

Please see discussion at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy) for current discussion of a potential policy to apply to all ethnicity lists on Wikipedia, including this one. JackO'Lantern 20:38, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

I have sourced the list in accordance with Wikipedia's Original Research and Verifiability policies. Basically, anyone described by a reliable source as "Jamaican" or "Jamaican-American" (i.e. as opposed to "of Jamaican descent", "Jamaican mother", etc.) is on the list. Here are the few people I couldn't find anything for. If you have a reliable source that fits that please restore the names:

Search for Jamaican American[edit]

If a person searches for the term Jamaican American, they should be linked to Jamaican American(s).

other Jamaican Americans[edit]

You could also add rappers D-Nice, Heavy D and KRS-1. They are from Jamaican descent.

Merger[edit]

There is a long list of notable Jamaican Americans on the Jamaican American article. Perhaps these two list should be merged,thus shortening (what I would consider) the parent article.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 02:38, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
