Question!

i know to those in the United States, "American" means from The States. however, Canadians see themselves as American as well. then there's Mexico (which is indeed a part of North America), and then all of Central and South America. so does this category encompass them all, or should the category be renamed to "Crews from the United States"?

I don't know a single Canadian who considers themselves an American. The word "American" in the English language is rarely used to refer to anyone other than people from the United States. If you really feel up to the challenge of renaming it, bear in mind that it also requires the laborious task of editing every article contained in Category:American smashers as well for standardization. Haha, be my guest, but I ain't doin' it! :^) Even so, though, you'd be fighting quite a losing battle on American Civil War, American Football, American Indian and the fact that by law, products that are labelled as American-made all have to legally carry a "Made in USA" label. -- RJM Talk 16:59, October 27, 2007 (EDT)
