Race and ethnic groups and national origin groups in Hawaii

I see there is active editing on this article related to race, ethnicity, and national origin of inhabitants of Hawaii. All official statistics on this issue are constrained by official definitions and procedures imposed on the United States Census by regulations that originated in other agencies. I'll check the edits after all of you have looked over that section of this article and may link to some of the Census publications for the official definitions. Keep up the good work; this article should be well on its way to becoming a good article here on Wikipedia. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (Watch my talk, How I edit) 21:06, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
