I'm afraid I'm not requesting for one single category but a handful of categories, and thence the section title. 218.250.159.25 (talk) 04:24, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Once more very few sources. A few of the Hoa could arguably slip by, but none of the other members of the proposed subcategories had a single source for his or her descent. Try finding reliable sources first, and ask for categories when enough articles show why they should be so classified. Anyway, Category:Hong Kong people by ethnic or national origin isn't so full it needs another layer of container category. Huon (talk) 11:52, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

They're meant to be fed into Category:People of Chinese descent and Category:People of Cantonese descent respectively. And there are indeed categories like Category:American people of Puerto Rican descent, Category:British people of Gibraltarian descent, Category:British people of Manx descent or even Category:French people of Catalan descent (part of Catalonia lies within France), Category:French people of Guadeloupean descent (Guadeloupe is a region of the French Republic, in the same way as the regions within Metropolitan France are). 218.250.159.25 (talk) 16:12, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Declined. For people moving to Hong Kong after 1997, an "expatriate" category would be wrong since Hong Kong is now a part of the PRC. Only one article remains, and that's hardly enough for a category. Huon (talk) 18:13, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The way that Hong Kong is part of the PRC is as much as the Falklands, Gibraltar and the Isle of Man are to the UK, or Puerto Rico or USVI are to the United States. Chinese people have no automatic right to settle in Hong Kong, and travel documents are required to cross the border to enter the territory. 218.250.159.25 (talk) 18:35, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
We don't have expatriate categories for any of those examples. More to the point, according to our article "an expatriate is a person temporarily or permanently residing in a country and culture other than that of the person's upbringing." Since Hong Kong is, travel restrictions nonwithstanding, not a separate country, Chinese living in Hong Kong are by definition not expatraites. Huon (talk) 02:19, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Dependencies like Hong Kong, Bermuda, Gibraltar, are countries, and therefore, for example, they customarily appear on list of countries with their standalone entries. 218.250.159.25 (talk) 04:34, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to try and find reliable sources calling those people expatriates or discussing the concept of post-1997 Chinese expatriates in Hong Kong in general. I have not succeeded at either. Without reliable sources, a category is obviously inappropriate. Huon (talk) 11:52, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

These people do not have much civil and political rights in the territory unless they have resided for seven years to acquire the permanent resident status (the same requirement for immigrants from the rest of the world). They don't have the right to vote, to stand for election or to be appointed for public offices. They are expatriates by the common sense of the word. Here are some of the sources: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. 218.250.159.25 (talk) 16:12, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taiwan isn't part of the PRC (nor is the rest of the ROC part of the PRC). 218.250.159.25 (talk) 04:38, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
True, but reliable sources calling these people expatriates would be nice to have. One seems entirely non-notable, the second may be notable, but her Hong Kong credentials are at best dubious, and the third comes close. A single person is not enough for a category.

The first one is an actress for TVB, a HK-based Cantonese-language TV channel, which is available in Malaysia, Australia and Canada by cable or satellite. The second one was an actress and appeared in a lot of Hong Kong films, until she half-retired recently from the screen after marriage. 218.250.159.25 (talk) 16:12, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Category request: [[:Category: ]] Titanic requiem

This request has been declined. Please do not modify it.

The Titanic Festival of Creative Arts 2012 is a “mini-festival” of new art commissioned with funds provided by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland. The focus of the festival is Philip Hammond’s new “REQUIEM FOR THE LOST SOULS OF THE TITANIC” The “Requiem for the Lost Souls of the Titanic” is the final event in this “mini-festival” series of new art which will take place in Belfast in April 2012. The performance has been specially funded by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, the Northern Ireland Tourist Board Events Fund and the PRS Fund for Music, with sponsorship from Harland & Wolff and Power NI. The requiem will be premiered on the night of the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic and it commemorates the tragic loss of over 1,500 lives. Composer Dr Philip Hammond speaking about the requiem said, “The requiem will involve several conductors, four choirs (Belfast Philharmonic Society, Cappella Caeciliana, ScholaCantorum of St.Peter’s Cathedral Belfast and the famous Dublin based choir Anuna), Belfast born mezzo soprano Jacqueline Horner who sings with the internationally acclaimed Anonymous Four based in America, all accompanied by the Downshire Brass Band from Belfast. The Requiem will also feature readings specially commissioned from Glenn Patterson which will be complemented by a set of musical “meditations” which I have written for The Fidelio Trio. All in all, there will be almost two hundred musicians taking part in this performance.” The Titanic Festival of Creative Arts also includes performances in other arts disciplines. “A Better Boy” is a newly commissioned one-man play from one of the leading Titanic experts, James Wilson Foster. Formerly Professor of English in the University of British Columbia, Jack has in retirement moved back to his native Northern Ireland. This play will be his first essay on stage and will be staged by Kabosh at the Belfast Barge, Belfast. A newly commissioned play involving the Lyric Theatre and offering an opportunity for an outreach project for schools in Belfast has been written by playwright Rosemary Jenkinson. “The White Star of the North” is based on the theme of emigration in the early nineteen hundreds- specifically 1912 - as the north of Ireland tries to maintain its political and social status quo. A newly commissioned song cycle from Belfast composer David Byers will form the centrepiece of an evening of music from the Edwardian Era – which will also include numbers that would have been in the repertoire of the musicians on board the Titanic. Belfast born musician Una Hunt is designing and performing this programme with two young Irish singers. The venue is the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, a new building in the Titanic Quarter, on Thursday 12th April. Before that recital, in the atrium of the new PRONI building, a specially written and devised series of tableaux based on the historical relationship between the docks and the shipyards of Belfast will be performed by Music Theatre 4 Youth in words, music and dance. A special Titanic Toasts art exhibition will take place between 10 April and 11 May at the Golden Thread Gallery. Curated by Peter Richards, it will feature two artists living and working in Belfast – American born Sara Greavu and Omagh born Phil Hession. Speaking at the launch of the festival Dick Mackenzie, chairman of Belfast Titanic Company said, “This festival seeks to reflect the huge creative energy that drove the people of Belfast in the first decade of the twentieth century in industrial terms and which now continues to permeate the arts in this small part of the world. We have designed the programme to act as a commemoration for those who lost their lives in April 1912. ”
