[edit] derogatory?
I doubt the use of derogatory in the description. I have many Indian friends who use the term ABCD without any derogatory intention. The terms is very similar to ABC for American Born Chinese. I also know may Chinese friends who call themselves ABC. Kowloonese 23:43, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
While it is used to be derogative on occasion, most of the time I hear it used in a friendly manner; I could abide by 'derogatory', but agree with the edit. shuri 30 June 2005 20:45 (UTC)
[edit] History deletion
Some text that was previously added to the article that was incorrect and possibly libelous. It had already been removed a few months ago, but I've now those revisions from the history on the request of the person who was mentioned in the article. The only changes deleted that remain in the current article were by 68.167.43.140 (talk • contribs) and are shown in this diff (with the exception of the addition of the category). No other significant edits were affected by the removal of these revisions. Angela. 11:16, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] object to merge
This article has more do with social issues for not just Indian Americans.--Dangerous-Boy 01:14, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
- I dont foresee this article growing more than what it is at present. With slight changes this will perfectly fit into Indian American as a section. If you link at what links here you only see Indian related articles only. So none of the other relevant parties seems to be concerned about it --Vyzasatya 06:30, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] nit pick
Why would a so-called 'abcd' have a house in Jersey ? I must be missing something. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 219.77.91.41 (talk) 05:13, 22 December 2006 (UTC).
It is a play on the fact that New Jersey is home to a significant Indian American population Akubhai 17:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
