There are some problems with this stub.

• why "UK-bio-stub" and not "British-bio-stub"?
• There needs to be a distinction for those were chiefly notable between (1707–1800) before the second act of uinion see Category:British people (1707–1800) stubs and those afterwards.
• The category Category:British people stubs encourages editors to move British people into the stubs {{England-bio-stub}} {{NorthernIreland-bio-stub}} {{Scotland-bio-stub}} {{|tl|Wales-bio-stub}}.
  • How is one meant to know if the person in a {{England-bio-stub}} is before or after unification and if so which unification?
  • What on earth does {{NorthernIreland-bio-stub}} mean should for example the suporters earls who took part in flight of the Earls be put in {{NorthernIreland-bio-stub}} or {{Ireland-bio-stub}}?
