Talk:Salman Rushdie

Rushdie and Israel
In light of the picture of Rushdie with Pres. Peres, does anybody know anything about Rushdie's political opinions regarding Israel? I think it would be interesting in the article.

Matter of WP:Due and WP:Relevance.
Similar to other aspects, info about his awards is already extensively highlighted in the lead, despite an entire section dedicated to it. Therefore, details of Rushdie's five marriages and divorces have received controversy and are highly relevant due to their media coverage and impact on his public persona and legacy. They provide context to his life, warranting their inclusion upfront. StarkReport (talk) 08:15, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Nationality
Hi, sorry for my ignorant and silly comments on this. However, I find the current lead sentence pretty distracting, and imo, we should either change the descriptor to "Indian-born" (as what we've already done to Albert Einstein) or omit it (as what we've already done to Elon Musk, Tina Turner, Paulina Porizkova, etc).
