Merge with Criminal gang?

This article is exclusively talking about criminal gangs (and mostly specifically about street gangs), but "gang" doesn't necessarily mean criminal. We do have a Criminal gang article, but it is just a disambiguation article (with a link to this article piped from "Street gang", and links to other types of criminal gang that are also mentioned and linked to by this article). We also have a Gang (disambiguation) article, which states that a gang is merely "a group of recurrently associating individuals who share a common identity", but which links that to this article and doesn't actually list any other type of gang. I think we should merge this article with Criminal gang (preferably under that name). Meanwhile, I'll start adding other types of gang (e.g. chain gang to Gang (disambiguation).

Should Kamala Harris get a title change?

Due to Kamala now being the vice president of the United States, should her title be changed from Californian Attorney General to Vice President? JPaul Getty ptoductions ( talk) 18:17, 3 February 2021 (UTC) reply

  • She took the actions as AG, so it should stay that way. It makes sense for the AG to do that, but would seem odd for the VP. Niteshift36 ( talk) 23:05, 3 February 2021 (UTC) reply

What is that line referring to?

  • African gangs in the United States are directly related to violent tribal violence, usually over women. Rape is a common expression of dominance among Africans.

What is that line in the introduction referring to? Where's the citation?
