Talk:Daniel L. Overmyer

Subject's nationality is American, rather than Canadian
The lead sentence states, "Daniel L. Overmyer (August 20, 1935 – November 24, 2021) was a Canadian historian of religion and academic who was Professor Emeritus in the Department of Asian Studies and the Centre for Chinese Research at the University of British Columbia."

However, as subsequently stated, "Overmyer was born on August 20, 1935, in Columbus, Ohio." His education was in the U.S. and "Overmyer's teaching career began in the Department of Religion at Oberlin College, Ohio, in 1970. After three years, he was invited to the University of British Columbia."

Thus, he was invited to Canada in the year of his 38th birthday. The article does not indicate that he became a Canadian citizen, but even if he did, the lead sentence should state "...was an American historian..." while specifying, in the final sentence of the lead paragraph, "He became a Canadian citizen in [year indicated, with an inline cite to a reliable source]". —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:21, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
