List of black Golden Globe Award winners and nominees → ? – If "black" is not the right word, shall we call them Afican-American or Afro-related? As for "winners and nominees", is "recipients" the right word? George Ho (talk) 02:16, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No view on this but both articles should be consistent.--174.95.111.89 (talk) 03:19, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment how are you going to handle non-Americans, if you use "African American"? I know people have called Black British people "African American" on American TV, and they've called people in Liberia "African American", despite neither of those being Americans, but we shouldn't really be supporting such usage. -- 65.94.76.126 (talk) 12:10, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Good point, at least one of the actors listed, Chiwetel Ejiofor is British. Since he is not African American he would have to be removed if we use the African American title and I don't think that is a good idea. We will need to come up with something else if we decided to move this.--174.95.111.89 (talk) 02:09, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose It feels uncomfortable, but "black" does seem to be the right word here, per black people. As discussed above, not all of these people are actually African Americans. "Afro-related" sounds like a neologism, though I'm not clear if George was suggesting that phrase itself or just something with the "Afro-" prefix. --BDD (talk) 20:52, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • My first thought was "what on Earth is a black Golden Globe", so clearly the current title is not the clearest possible. However, as is stated above "African-American" is a non-starter unless the scope is meant to only include Americans. Jafeluv (talk) 11:08, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, or better, delete! Red Slash 02:49, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
