Rationale for category[edit]

@Greyshark09: is this category necessary? I don't think it works as a sub-cat of Category:Palestinian people by territory, and suggest redirecting it to Category:Palestinian people. – Fayenatic London 10:24, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Palestinians have a unique situation, when there is more than one definition of Palestinian nationality. The Palestinian people is an umbrella term for all those having Palestinian passport, Palestinian refugee ID or even those having ancestors of Palestinian Arab descent (having IDs of British Palestine some generations ago). People from the State of Palestine in this regard are all those having the Palestinian Passport, but doesn't include Palestinians from diaspora who own Palestine refugee IDs or those having ancestors from British Palestine.GreyShark (dibra) 15:29, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
