If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Then I suppose you should take it upon yourself to make the distinction who is Chinese, Taiwanese, and Hong Konger because if you imply by the term "ethnic Chinese" and by that I presume you the Han Chinese, even though both Taiwan and Hong Kong have Han majorities despite operating in different and separate entities. Yet when using the term "Chinese South Africans", I think Wikipedia readers would automatically assume that it mean the Han Chinese from China. Nonetheless I suppose renaming the category or partitioning into subsections (which is what I have previously done) could be two possibilities to deal with this issue, but I suggest you be cognizant of the current geopolitical situation surrounding Taiwan and China or the relations between Mainland and Hong Kong, even the political nuances pertaining the relations between the three entities are far more complex and beyond the scope of this current conversation, especially when it comes to establishing a clear distinction between the political context of modern South Africa.
