Talk:Vanguard international funds FAQ

Does the How much should I allocate to international? section veer too far off the main topic of Vanguard's International Funds?

Domestic/International allocation is certainly an important topic but it doesn't relate directly to Vanguard's International Fund offerings. Shouldn't domestic/international asset allocation be given a separate and in-depth page, rather than a brief blurb here, thereby allowing this page to focus solely on its subject matter of Vanguard's International Funds?

Perhaps a link reference as below to a dedicated domestic/international allocation page.

Use symbols or names
Should we use fund names more and put symbols in parenthesis? I know I'm not good at remembering symbols. Tfb 12:42, 1 June 2008 (EDT)

Edits
Given the rapid transformation of the Total International Index Fund from a fund of funds into a fund directly holding stock issues (on 2/28/09 the fund held 80% individual stock issues), I have redrafted sections of this page to reflect the narrowing gap in tax efficiency with this fund and the FTSE ex-Us Fund. I eliminated the " I have Total International in a taxable account. What should I do? segment, since this is rapidly becoming a non-issue. Blbarnitz 05:01, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
