A lot of these senses seem like they might need to be merged/cleaned up. And as for sense 3; "unpatriotic; non-xenophobic." Really? That's a pretty harsh label to put on people who say "un-American" to mean "unpatriotic to the US", suggesting that devotion to one's country has directly to do with hating/fearing other countries and nationalities. I'm gonna arbitrarily delete that myself, since it seems like an obvious NPOV problem. There's also the altform unamerican, which is completely independent of this entry apparently, having different, simpler definitions (which might be a pretty good idea in the case of the whole product entry actually).

I had a go at merging redundant senses. How's it look now? - -sche (discuss) 20:07, 26 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
