Forum:German people, People of Germany, People from Germany, Emigrants from Scotland - and so on

Categories and lists are easier to follow if all the entries of the same type have the same form. Not like this:
 * Emigrants from Switzerland
 * German people
 * Germans in Austria
 * People from Austria
 * People from Turkey
 * People of Sweden
 * Swiss people

Wikipedia has some consistency but not complete. I think Commons is better, though much less detailed. I hope we can combine the best of them to get a system that gives maximum standardisation without having page names that are too unnatural.

There are problems with the difference between nationality and race/descent. Discussion on Wikipedia has not settled this one! Am I right in "remembering" that the residents of parts of Czechoslovakia were Germans and were therefore the excuse for Hitler's "liberation" of them?
