Hello, I'm Brewcrewer. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Eugene Meyer, but you didn't provide a reliable source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks,  brew  crewer  (yada, yada) 23:12, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Manual of Style/Biographies: nationality, not ethnicity
Hello Begalangoram,

I have reverted your edits to several biographical articles. Wikipedia's manual of style (MOS) for the opening paragraphs of biographies states that


 * 1) In most modern-day cases this will mean the country of which the person is a citizen, national or permanent resident, or if notable mainly for past events, the country where the person was a citizen, national or permanent resident when the person became notable.
 * 2) Ethnicity or sexuality should not generally be emphasized in the opening unless it is relevant to the subject's notability. Similarly, previous nationalities or the country of birth should not be mentioned in the opening sentence unless they are relevant to the subject's notability.

Kind regards --RJFF (talk) 12:51, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
