Polish.[]

I suggest to put "Polish" in the "others" ethnich groups, ukraine has a large polish minority. -Unsigned post

I found the demographics of Ukraine on Wikipedia:

Ukrainians 77.8%
Russians 17.3%
Belarusians 0.6%
Moldovans 0.5%
Crimean Tatars 0.5%
Bulgarians 0.4%
Hungarians 0.3%
Romanians 0.3%
Poles 0.3%
Other 1.7%

If anyone is to be added as an "other" group, it would be Belarusians, then the Moldovans, and so on. But certainly Jewish should be removed, less than 0.2% of Ukrainians are Jewish, much smaller than any of the above ethnicities. LurkerLordB (Talk) 14:10, May 18, 2012 (UTC)

Poles[]

Yeah, but, poles should be added too, it is a large minority but most of them speak ukranian as first language, and i think that they feel ukranian ( even the polish speakers). Maybe not jewish, but i think that poles should be added.

Poles are 0.3% of the population of the Ukraine. Such a move makes no sense whatsoever. Lordganon 16:14, May 21, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, but, as they said below, i thnk belarussians should be added as third minority, I understand why you not want to put poles as the principal minorities. anyway, thanks for your edits in my articles, sometimes is difficult to link.

Even the Moldavians and Belorussians are only 0.6% of the population. Still makes absolutely no sense, as does adding Judaism to the ledger. And, The two religions are Ukrainian Orthodox, and Ukrainian Catholic. Lordganon 21:26, May 22, 2012 (UTC)

OK, Lordganon, no problem, the minorities continue to exist anyway even if they are not putted :), anyway, how do you see to extend the article of ukraine a little more?
