==African-American==
After seeing that trivia removed (and rightly, as it's extremely debatable), I felt I ought to point out something regarding characters' ethnicity. That being: if it is discussed at all, we should be extremely careful what terminology we use. "African-American" is predicated by there being an Africa or an America by those names in any official material. America we can assume, thanks to Lt. Surge's title, but Africa is far less confirmable. It would be better to discuss skin-tone, although that's less specific and voids pretty much any trivia. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] 20:41, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
