Should we perhaps also create categories for hitch-hikers from different countries, e.g. Hitchhikers from Germany? Analogue to en:wikipedia/Category:Explorers_by_nationality. It is a good tool to unite hitch-hikers from the same country, under the same category.--Sigurdas 17:59, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, sounds good. But do we want Hitchhikers from Germany or Hitchhikers living in Germany? The second one might be more accurate if someone moves to another country. --MrTweek 19:08, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Following the Wikipedia's patterns it is more convenient to have e.g. Hitchhikers from Germany - even if a person does not live there anymore, he/she is still considered to be from Germany. In such a case it wouldn't be wrong to apply two Hitchhikers from... categories to one user: the first one reflecting where the user comes from, and another - of his/her current location.
If we all agree on these new categories, I can create them and edit users' pages accordingly.--Sigurdas 19:16, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Hmm, then again, if someone lives in a country for a long time, he can also say he is from there. Alright, so feel free to start :) --MrTweek 20:04, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Definitely agree with this proposition. Hitchhikers from a certain region in terms of hitchhikers who are based in a certain region. It is not about what your passport says but where you're at/ based. Besides, I know hitchhikers with four nationalities. And where are you from anyway? Robino 23:20, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, it might be confusing, but whatever, just start it, that's how the wiki work ;) Somehow, someday it will sort itself with all those categories ;) --Platschi 20:08, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
