Talk:Graeme Wood (journalist)

Are no details about his early life available?

Parents? High school? The man sprang fully formed from the schoolmaster's forehead at St. Mark's? No ancestors of his did anything noteworthy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.85.22.100 (talk) 17:02, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

"What ISIS Really Wants"

I redirected "What ISIS Really Wants" to Graeme C.A. Wood, though this article has received a lot of media coverage and it might be notable enough for its own article. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 17:50, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Graeme C.A. Wood → Graeme Wood (journalist) – Where is he ever presented as "Graeme C.A. Wood"? This usage is unnatural. GregKaye 09:01, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

• Support speedy move. And also Graeme Wood to Graeme Wood (cricketer), 1988 is a long time ago. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:44, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
• Support. Can make Graeme Wood disambig for Graeme Wood (cricketer) and others -- Aronzak (talk) 09:53, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
• Support - speedy move per WP:COMMONNAME and we can disambiguate for the cricketer. Mbcap (talk) 15:51, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
• Support, both the subject's own use and external references to the subject exclude the "C.A.", making it an unlikely source of assistance to recognition by readers. bd2412 T 13:25, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

I've redirected The Way of the Strangers and The Way of the Strangers: Encounters with the Islamic State to this article for now. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 03:04, 4 November 2017 (UTC)

Nationality?

Is Graeme Wood a Canadian or American journalist? He is listed here as an American, and this biography indicates that he has lived his whole life in the United States outside of journalistic endeavours, but he won Canada's Governor General Award for non-fiction, which is reserved for Canadian citizens. Perhaps his parents were Canadian and he's lived most of his life in the United States despite being a Canadian citizen? I've also found some websites that describe his nationality as Canadian. Loquacious Folly (talk) 23:42, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

-- Resolved on July 11, 2022. He holds Canadian citizenship which makes him eligible. I cited a source where he self-describes as Canadian. You don't need to be living in Canada, necessarily, to win a GG. 2607:FEA8:2CC1:5470:A4CC:9EC2:A378:33AB (talk) 21:20, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
