Need to review categorization
This category was nominated for
merging on 2 February 2010. The result of the discussion was keep.
The above discussion related to a wider unsuccessful proposal to merge the categories of "Russian immigrants", "Soviet immigrants" and "Imperial Russian immigrants" to a specific country into a single category of "Russian and Soviet immigrants" to that country. Although this category and its two sister categories,
Category:Russian immigrants to the United States and
Category:Imperial Russian immigrants to the United States, were created some time ago, many articles appear to have been incorrectly categorized among the three categories, in particular, being placed in
Category:Russian immigrants to the United States, rather than in one of the other two categories. In light of the discussion referred to above, the articles currently in the three categories should be reviewed and, where applicable, moved to the appropriate sister category. To assist future correct categorization (and consistent with the categorization of Russian/Soviet immigrants to other countries), all three of these categories now appear as subcategories of a container category,
Category:Russian and Soviet immigrants to the United States.
