| ==Hāfu Diaspora==
| | A list of all the various mixes with Japanese that make up the hāfu diaspora. |
| | |
| We use flag emojis to categorize the ethnicity of each person or character in JapanWiki. There are a couple basic conventions.
| |
| | |
| 1. For hāfu, or biracial, half Japanese, we lead with the Japanese flag, and then pair that flag with the second named country or ethnicity. For example, a Japanese American would be categorized with [[:Category:🇯🇵🇺🇸|🇯🇵🇺🇸]] Generally, this is usually when the hāfu is born in America, with the second parent being non-Japanese of unknown ancestry. We lead with the Japanese flag as per the phrase "Japanese American". If the American parent is of a single known background nationality, then we can use that countries flag second, for example if the non-Japanese parent is known to be German, we can categorize them as [[: Category:🇯🇵🇩🇪|🇯🇵🇩🇪]]. However, by default, if ther is any ambiquity, or the non-Japanese parent is of multiple nationalities, then Japanese American is fine.

| | |
| 2. If the person or character is full blooded Japanese, not hāfu, and born in American we use the category [[:Category:🇺🇸🇯🇵|🇺🇸🇯🇵]]. This can be read as American born Japanese, or in other words Nikkei (日系人). The same convention can be used in other countries.
| |
| | |
| 3. If we know that a person or character is half Japanese, but we don't know the second country or ethnicity, then we use the category [[:Category:🇯🇵?|🇯🇵?]]
| |
| | |
| 4. Japanese citizens are labels with a single Japanese flag as [[:Category:🇯🇵|🇯🇵]]
| |
| | |
| 5. There are two more categories which are similar. Firstly, "Quapa" is when we know that the person or character is a quarter, or 25% Japanese. If one of their grandparents is Japanese, we categorize them as [[:Category: Quapa| Quapa]]. Secondly, if we know that someone is the child of one parent who is 75% Japanese, then we categorize them as [[:Category: 37.5% Japanese| 37.5% Japanese]]
