(For Mark Arsten, DancingPhilosopher, • Gene93k, Jeff5102, Warden, Mark Arsten, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus)

For one reason or another (I took a Wiki-break for a while, plus my watchlist is so jam packed it's fairly easy to miss things), I had no idea an AFD was taking place. In short, as I mentioned in my recent edit summary, I edited this article with no agenda or alterior-motive in mind. I find it amusing that some of the comments in the AFD accused me of peddle-pushing a book that I has never actually heard of before. In preliminary research for this article, his works struck me as both interesting and highly informative (they give a lot of information about national stereotypes away in a short place of time) so added a couple of links into External Links. Yes, the article at the moment is rather (what was the term...) sloppy, but it is a start, and I have tried to make the information, though bare, useful and objective. I sincerely hope others more familiar with the subject matter and more experienced are able to continue my work and make this article great. It is highly notable, and if people are worried about it being a hub for controversy, then I would first point out "so what?" - many of the most important topics are naturally controversial because people have very strong opinions on them. If snything, controversy is a sign of notability. I would clarify that this would be about he concept in general - its use/usefulness/history etc., while a List of national stereotypes spin-off article would *then* be the hub of controversy. So this article should remain very objective and neutral.--Coin945 (talk) 04:17, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-10-14T04:17:00.000Z","author":"Coin945","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Coin945-2013-10-14T04:17:00.000Z-My_objectivity_and_unbiasness_in_this_article","replies":[]}}-->

Many countries have a condescending attitude to the inhabitants of a neighbouring country. The English have a number of national sterotypes, some of which are based on fact which is then generalised. For example a Scotsman is supposed to be miserly, an Irishman is supposed to be stupid. They are particularly mean to the French to which they usually refer to as The Frogs. Besides stereotypes, French has come to mean something of which the use is either undesirable or not apparant, such as the French disease (Syphilis), French letter (Condom}, French balcony, etcetera.

The two terms "ethnicity" and "nationality" are often confused, since "nationality" may mean either ethnicity or citizenship. In fact, ethnic, racial, and national stereotypes are so interentangled, common people cannot separate. The two articles exhibit precisely this kind of confusion, and I am not sure this confusion is worth hair-splitting. One article has ext link titled "Ethnic and National Stereotypes", so may be a good idea is to

merge and move to Ethnic and national stereotypes .
