Article splitting template
[edit]The debate has gone nowhere these past years since July 2021. On resolving the issue, in accordance to rule number 8 on when to remove the template, it clearly states (ahem):
"You may remove a template when according to your best judgment the lack of edits and/or talk page discussion should be interpreted as the issue not worth fixing (as a form of "silent consensus"). Please note there is currently no consensus for general age-related removal of maintenance templates – that is, removing a template purely or chiefly because it is old is not considered a sufficient argument. Exception: removing POV-related templates whose discussions have gone dormant is encouraged, as addressed in the bullet point immediately above;"
Unless anyone has anything to say or anyone to introduce into the discussion, I will be bold and remove the template within 2 weeks. Thank you. Cleter (talk) 01:18, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Flags are excessively overused in this article. A lot of the immigrants left their original countries because they want to disassociate themselves with the regimes associated with those flags in the first place, and using those flags to represent them is not only inappropriate, but can be offensive. Furthermore, a lot of those flags are anachronistic, representing regimes or countries that didn't exist at the time the immigrants left. DHN (talk) 04:49, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- I went ahead and removed them. DHN (talk) 05:39, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

May 2024 research conducted at Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City
[edit]In regards to a recent edit, the author of the study is an economist named Elior Cohen. Is the author well known or is the report significant in terms of coverage as it relates to Immigration to the United States. Is there some explanation as to why this is DUE?

Disambiguation for JFK book
[edit]The term "nation of immigrants" redirects here, which I have no issue with. But we also have a similarly named article about A Nation of Immigrants, a 1958 book written by John F. Kennedy, so a hatnote is probably in order for this article. I'm an IP and this article is locked, so I can't edit this, but it would be nice if someone could add the following to the top of the article:
