Semi-protected edit request on 4 October 2015 OR Ethnicity is a different concept from ancestry
![]() | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
In the quick stats box on the top, right-hand side of the page, Jobs's "Ethnicity" is listed as German and Syrian. Those are his (most current) ancestral ethnicities as he did not partake in, identify with, nor was admitted to the cultural matrixes of either German or Syrian. Ancestry is more specific as the topic to the response given (or implied) there than ethnicity and hence more accurate; therefore, "Ancestry" should replace the word "Ethnicity" in that box (or else where found). The logic of ethnic cultural matrix as synonymous with ethnicity makes Jobs's American (or some equivalent term) in fact and his nationality (in today's understanding) is from wherever he held citizenship, which would likely include at least the same, but that is not always true with all of course. 2601:584:C000:3A0:4D7F:B9BB:D744:1EDE (talk) 07:03, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the
{{edit semi-protected}}
template. It would also entail a discussion on the talk page of {{Infobox person}}. -- Sam Sailor Talk! 08:36, 4 October 2015 (UTC)- I'm perplexed as to what the problem is. The Infobox template, which you can see here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_person
- offers the following categories for background:
| nationality = | ethnicity = | citizenship =
- Nationality is listed as American (which also covers citizenship). Ethnicity is the other option given (not ancestry). The Oxford English Dictionary defines "Ethnicity" as: "Status in respect of membership of a group regarded as ultimately of common descent" which covers the concept of "ancestry." Ethnicity is based upon the background of parents, grandparents etc. His biological father is Syrian and mother is German on her father's side, hence the identification as German and Syrian. His adopted mother was Armenian and Jobs is reported to have had an interest in Armenian culture and history. However, I'm not sure listing "Armenian" as one of the categories would fit under the term "ethnicity." The entry is correct. -Classicfilms (talk) 05:03, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
