Prodded, but I thought this needed a discussion as it appeared to be not uncontroversial as required by WP:PROD. This seems to me to be a list that violates WP:NOT - Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate source of information - and WP:NPOV as the "definition" for inclusion, particularly on the "race" side, be subjective and arbitrary at best - how many of a person's great-grandparents must be African American to "qualify" for the list - eight? six? two? one? What does it mean to be "African American" in the first place? Despite an assertion in government publications to the contrary, it's up to a person's interpretation, thus making it a POV issue.

My research here:
Showed that at age 110, African-Americans had a life expectancy advantage of about six months over their Caucasian-American counterparts. It was not possible to determine a maximum lifespan difference (unlike gender, where women live 7 years longer). The "qualification" to be African-American is mostly self-determined, or as recorded in documents such as the census, Social Security, etc.
I might ask the question, however: what would happen if someone created an article on "List of Caucasian-American supercentenarians"?Ryoung122 13:05, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
