For your excellent work on multiple ethnicity-related articles! It's wonderful! Articles like that (e.g. Japanese community of São Paulo, Maghrebian community of Paris) are very interesting! And, maybe they can be good ways to show people diversity. I hope they can make people become less intolerant. :) Haha maybe I'm a dreamer... Anyway, it's delightful to see your work on it.
