The result of the proposal was moved. DrKiernan (talk) 13:14, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Indian British → British Indian — The American-style names "Indian British" or "Indian Britons" are not used in reliable sources about this population group.
The current British Indian disambiguation page could either go at British Indian (disambiguation) or be merged with the former version of Indian British (which also used to be a disambiguation page). Regards, cab (talk) 01:17, 21 March 2008 (UTC) —cab (talk) 01:17, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
She's an Anglo-Indian with a British-born parent and has spent time in Britain, but she is NOT British!

Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.Where's the article for people of English/Scottish/Welsh/Irish descent who were born and raised in India? What should the title of that be? A significant number of the hits you refer to seem to relate to that, not this. Dekimasuよ! 04:38, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
I created the the Indian British article, and I do not appreciate that you keep changing the articles name to British Indian, what reasoning at all do you have behind it. The term British Indian means Indian people of British descent. Even the UK's National Statistics used the term Asian or Asian British (including Indian British), all other Indian diasporas have the 'Indian' in the name first (Indian American, Indian Canadian etc). Renaming the article has made the meaning the complete opposite, and has helped to make ther small article even worse. I would be thankful if you could lift the 'move page block' as it needs renaming to its former self. I see absolutely no reason why you shouldn't, except the fact that another article is called British Asian, which is also wrong, but I do not yet want to get involved with such a complicated article, follow the link to the the correct term - Asian British, hence Indian British - in usage [1].

The 2001 Census is considerably out of date (almost a decade), even though this source isn't official government data it is much more recent evidence of a increasing population of British Indians. Also as can be seen with the British Pakistanis page, when most recent estimates by the Office of National Statistics for England as well as the 2001 census data from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are added together, a similar figure is given:

I read your article with interest - I have always wanted to know the history of British Indians. The article only mentions London populations. I'd like to know more about British Indian populations in Manchester, and other parts of Britain eg Scotland, yorkshire, and midlands.
Thanks
A British Indian
P.S. The attacks on lower caste Indians probably happened in India. I can't believe that British Indians were involved in caste associated attacks. We are usually more liberal about caste issues even if we only tend to marry within the same scio-economic or cultural group 'caste' system - lower castes tend to come from different cultural or social background, often working class. This is mainly a practice of more traditional British Indian populations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.10.85.204 (talk) 15:58, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Migration to the United Kingdom should not be based on ethnic group but on nationality and the British Tamil article is the only one based on ethnicity in the Asia section. The information in the British Tamil article is already in both the Sri Lankans in the United Kingdom and British Indian articles of where Tamil People come from therefore the British Tamil article is not needed.--Blackknight12 (talk) 03:01, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
I've started a discussion about the origin of the flag used to represent British Indians in the article at File talk:Anglo-Indian Indentity.svg. Comments are welcome. Cordless Larry (talk) 15:25, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
A notable political figure, Lord Archer mentions how the Indian people are talking over Britain(not in a bad way). [6] Speaks of their culture and how well accepted they are in that nation. I thought perhaps this might fit somewhere into the article. Show how the cultures mesh. Dream Focus 20:30, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

How do I add the Ravidassia Religion to the religion section. Ravidassia was a focus group for the 2011 census. As well as many as 22 temples around the UK.

The term British Indian is usually used to refer to the people of British-India, and not those people from Indian subcontinent who have swarmed into Great Britain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.201.241.159 (talk) 06:56, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

One of the most accomplished women and trailblazers was an Indian woman named Cornelia Sorabji. She is often overlooked but I believe she should be qualified to be added onto the gallery area with her photo. If 12 prominent British-Indians must be in the gallery then perhaps remove someone like Michael Chopra in order to add Cornelia Sorabji. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.26.97.221 (talk) 22:54, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

I have added back the sourced information which was removed by the vandal ip without any reason. 2A02:C7D:1536:C00:40C1:E902:C141:43E8 (talk) 17:09, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
I have reverted this addition for the second time, because the source does not support the claim that the majority of British Indians voted for the UK to leave the EU. Poling evidence suggests the opposite, in fact. Cordless Larry (talk) 09:51, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

Hello! It seems that "Indian British" redirects to a redirect page. Please fix that. 4TacklesMath (talk) 12:27, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
I am new to editing wikipedia. I recently added sections on art and literature under the 'culture' subheading, which were notable omissions, and cited numerous well known and acclaimed British Indians such as Anish Kapoor who has won the Turner Prize and Salman Rushdie who has won the booker prize, however these sections were deleted, but the edit description is not clear why. Please can you explain? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Natpalit (talk • contribs) 20:04, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
OK. The guidelines suggested only information that was contentious required citations. None of the content was really questionable, and I think it could have been dealt with by simply adding 'citation needed' rather than deleting all the content. Natpalit (talk) 21:25, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
An IP editor, having started by removing the image of Priti Patel on the grounds that "Everybody is sick of seeing her face", is now insisting that she's not British Indian, so I've added a reference to a reliable source to the image. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:14, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
