Filipino ethnicity/nationality

Quite a few edits have added to the lead that he is (some combo) of Filipino-American, American / Filipino, etc. This has also been added to his nationality in the infobox. As far as the lead, ethnicity is typically not mentioned there per MOS:BLPLEAD: "Ethnicity or sexuality should not generally be emphasized in the opening unless it is relevant to the subject's notability." Short of playing on the Philippines national team, I don't think it belongs in the lead for him. As far as nationality, it's unsourced so far that he is a citizen of the Philippines, so it should not be mentioned in the infobox per WP:BLP.—Bagumba (talk) 23:43, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    FYI Clarkson is ineligible to play for the Philippine National Team due to FIBA rules.^[1] - --Wambeter (talk) 02:25, 2 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    Lithuanian sources say different, reportedly Philippines coach Tab Baldwin has added Jordan Clarkson on the candidate roster and also that Clarkson holds Filipino citizenship. He's currently in Asia figuring out if he can play for the Philippines as a non-naturalized player.^[2] - --8obis (talk) 10:52, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Should be indicated as "Filipino-American", more than 100+ online citations available and Clarkson has already been issued citizenship per the first cite below:

More sample of citations available, I can retrieve more than a hundred more indicating that Clarkson is a "Filipino-American". -3 REF Inserted- Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).

please change Jordan Clarkson's "Nationality" from "American-Filipino" to "Filipino-American" because he had already secured a Philippine passport before 16 years old per FIBA rules. ^[1]^[2]^[3] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brianfauni (talk • contribs) 02:05, 1 February 2016‎ (UTC) —Bagumba (talk) 00:32, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
