What is the criteria to include the corresponding ethnic groups on this article? --PaxEquilibrium 22:05, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, I just threw it together. I linked to BiH specific articles, though I had to make an exception for Bosniaks and Muslims by nationality (which don't have country specific articles for BiH).--Hadžija 08:37, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is a difficult question. BiH has not had an official census since 1991. I would go by the general believed ethnicities. The ones that are in the template right now are fairly correct. One thing that I think is different from Serbia is "Muslim by nationality". I think one would find those Muslims as declaring themselves as Yugoslav before simply saying they are Muslim. Officially, Muslims are Bosniaks according to the Bosnian-Herzegovinian government. Even if we were to take a census, maybe some towards the CG border, not many would declare themselves Muslim, instead Bosniak (which implies they are Muslim).

If we were going solely on the 1991 census, I wouldn't have included Bosniaks, so I think we should leave it as it is, it seems like a good compromise to me. I mean, a few people probably still view themselves as Muslims, and we have no way of knowing they don't.--Hadžija 23:38, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Of course we cannot be sure, that is why I did not change it. The war has changed a lot of things. Had we all been Yugoslavs (i.e. Yugoslav Muslim, Yugoslav Orthodox, Yugoslav Christian...) after WWII, we might have still been a nation today. Vseferović 02:28, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was asking to find out whether I could add the Roma people or not... --PaxEquilibrium 09:47, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead, but it would be best if there was a BiH specific article.--Hadžija 13:22, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
