Arab percentage[edit]

As of the 2000 Census, major ancestry groups reported by Hamtramck residents include:

· Polish - 26% · Black or African American - 15% · Yugoslavian - 12% · Arab - 11% · Asian Indian - 7% · Arab/Arabic - 6% · Bangladeshi - 10% · Ukrainian - 4% · German - 3% · Albanian - 3% · Other Arab - 3% · Irish - 2% · Italian - 2% · Russian - 2% · English - 1% · French (except Basque) - 1% · Lebanese - 1% · Pakistani - 1% · Scottish - 1% · Macedonian - 1% · Mexican - 1% · Iraqi - 1%

This list treats "Arab," "Arab/Arabic" and "Other Arab" as three separates. Can I assume that this is a mistake? I'm guessing that the first "Arab" listing, which is at 11%, actually is supposed to include the other two. I don't know that for a fact, though. 68.40.64.186 04:43, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


I think "Arab" and "Other Arab" mean different things but what's the difference between Arab and Arab/Arabic? I can't confirm those numbers with the US Census, we should probably update them with better info. Dr_Cherry 16:26, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Macedonians are Yugoslavian why are they seprate...And Most of the Yugoslavs in Hamtramck are Bosniaks(bosnians)....

Content reversion[edit]

John from Idegon reverted my change, claiming there needs to be a new source, even though the change that I made was to bring the phrasing in line with the source material. The previous phrasing, Ultimately Hamtramck amended its noise ordinance in July 2004, regulating all religious sounds., implies that

  • A) the amendment to the ordinance "regulates" religious sounds that were previously unregulated and that
  • B) the amendment regulates "religious sounds" in a broad sense, rather than calls to prayer.

This is incorrect on both counts. The amendment carved out a special exception for calls to prayer, where they were previously indistinguishable from other "noise" by the statute. From the amendment:

The city shall permit "calls to prayer" "church bells" and other reasonable means of announcing religious meetings to be amplified between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. for a duration not to exceed five minutes.

As you can also see from the above text, the amendment specifically refers to calls to prayer, and not "all religious sounds". "Religious sounds" that are not related to announcing religious meetings would presumably not be covered by the amendment. My edit changed the sentence to read: Ultimately Hamtramck amended its noise ordinance in July 2004, creating an exception for religious calls to prayer and regulating the volume and times at which such calls may be broadcasted. which I believe is what the amendment says. If John from Idegon or anyone else has any objection to the change, I'd love to hear your reasoning. If you happen to have some kind of case law or other source that supports the previous incorrect wording, I'd love to see that too. AlexEng(TALK) 02:07, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What's correct in your view is irrelevant. What the sources say is. All I asked you to do was start a discussion here to gain a consensus for your change. Which per WP:BRD you should not have reinstated. I have again reverted it. All interested parties can discuss it here, and when we reach a consensus, then we can change the article. I do not see a source for the attitude here. This is exactly how this is supposed to work. John from Idegon (talk) 02:57, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What's correct in your view is equally irrelevant. What you restored is Original Research and not indicative of what's written in the sources cited. If you have a PAG based reason to restore factually incorrect content, I'm all ears. AlexEng(TALK) 03:09, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
