Weird category[edit]

I noticed that the article is in the Category:Black Britons. Arbitrariness of racial classifications aside, since when are Egyptians commonly thought of as "black"? I tracked the category addition to the following edit, which was made by a user who, based on his contributions, appears like a one-issue editor. I am removing the category as rather inaccurate.

Coptic[edit]

So what's the point of mentioning his religion in the very first lines? I haven't seen this anywhere else. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7081:5D07:E706:6D38:8172:EE3A:2D1C (talk) 01:28, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
