April 2020 comment from Shehara Bharushi
She is in patchaoge song which sung by Arjit Singh — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shehara Bharushi (talk • contribs) 15:22, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
Nationality
@Cyphoidbomb: as per this edit by Aelita14, the subject is Moroccan since her "mother/father is Moroccan". She has cited this source, a passage of which transaltes to → Nationality by parental filiation or by paternal filiation - Is Moroccan, the child born to a Moroccan father or a Moroccan mother. Transitional provisions - The new provisions regarding the attribution of Moroccan nationality, under this article, by the birth of a Moroccan mother, are applied to all persons born before the date of publication of this law.
. However, the source that we are using to ascertain her roots [1], only mentions "she has Moroccan roots" and the subject herself say → "My family is from Morocco" - in the source. No mention that her parents are Moroccan, by "family" and "root" she/t
he source could very well mean that her grandparents are Moroccan and not her parents. IMO mentioning "Moroccan-Canadian" is violation of WP:NOR under these circumstances. Kindly weigh in. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:51, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Fylindfotberserk: Assuming dual citizenship based on one's interpretation of Moroccan law, would constitute original research. Even if her parents were Moroccan citizens, we don't know what provisions they made for Fatehi upon their arrival to Canada. We're also making an assumption that her parents didn't revoke their own Moroccan citizenship once they became Canadians. Speculative. Further, when we say "Moroccan-Canadian", that's a bit ambiguous as we usually use such pairings to imply ethnicity. Indo-Kiwi, African American, Indian Canadian, etc. See also WP:ETHNICITY. Charlize Theron is described as South African. Emily Blunt is described as British. Kirsten Dunst is described as American. Jim Carrey is described as Canadian-American, but I'm guessing that's because Canadian and American aren't really considered ethnicities. (Sorry these are all Westerners, but I just did a search for "Actors with dual citizenship") and found a TooFab article centred on western entertainment.) Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:15, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Cyphoidbomb:As per WP:ETHNICITY her Moroccan heritage would have been used in the lead only if she had been "notable" as a citizen, national or permanent resident of Morocco, which Fatehi isn't. In the case of Theron, she was born in SA, while Fatehi was born in Canada. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:53, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Fylindfotberserk:, @Cyphoidbomb: hello I have a license in Moroccan law and I am interested in politics and law especially in Arabic ... I intend soon to write on nora fathi in Arabic like what I did with the article of saad lamjared, dimash kudaibergen , MJ, eminem and others; but here, I was intrigued by the mention of Canadian but not Moroccan, something improbable for ... nora fathi is a canadian born of two moroccan parents, she mentioned that in an arabic tv show that her parents are both moroccan (here), she also mentioned that she is moroccan in her blood and that they spent the summer as usual every year in Morocco with her families (here 1) (here 2) ... apart from that nora does not speak classical Arabic but only the Moroccan Arabic dialect (Moroccan darija), she sings Moroccan, Dance Moroccan also, use Moroccan music, dress moroccan and attempt to propel Moroccan culture internationally (according to her too), the press mentions her as Moroccan without problem (S1) (S2)... so she is a Cannadian of Moroccan origin .... Coming to Moroccan law which stipulates (((Chapter II: Of the nationality of origin; Article 6: Nationality by parental filiation or by paternal filiation ... is Moroccan, the child born of a Moroccan father or a Moroccan mother.)))) therefore she is by default Moroccan, the question should not arise, except if she refuse her Moroccanness except that is absolutely not the case; so where is the problem in the english version of wiki because either the arabic or french version is mentioned normally without problems??? --Aelita14 (talk) 16:07, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Aelita14: Hi there, the introductory sentence in the lede typically describes a subject's nationality. Having been born and raised in Canada, I think it would only be appropriate to indicate that she is Canadian in that particular sentence, as that is from where she originated. While I acknowledge the very high possibility that she has dual citizenship based on the laws you've explained, it would be assumptive on our part to assert that fact, and it would constitute original research in the form of synthesis, which is described as combining what multiple sources say and drawing a conclusion that is not expressly stated in any of those sources:
- A = The law says that people born of Moroccan parents are citizens of Morocco by default.
- B = Published sources say that Nora Fatehi's parents are Moroccan
- C = Therefore A+B=C Nora Fatehi is a Moroccan citizen.
- Even while seemingly deductive, it is possible that her parents or she have revoked their Moroccan citizenship. Though you say that is absolutely not the case, none of us know that for certain, and even if you personally did know that fact, that would constitute original research, and none of us could verify that.
"the press mentions her as Moroccan without problem"
I could interpret "Moroccan" as a description of her ethnicity. It's an ambiguous label, unlike calling someone "Canadian" or "American" or "British", which typically describes nationality, as these nations are melting pots. As to your question about the various Wikipedias, they all have different rules, or maybe even a lack of rules due to an underrepresentation of quality editors. Hard to tell. But the English Wikipedia has very high standards. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:24, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: I apologize for my late response, as I am very busy with my real work and editing in the three languages of Wikipedia (Arabic, French, English) .. On the other, your question made me start to research more deeply into the subject and compare the Moroccan with others nationality law ... For this I will answer you, Based on what I found.
- First: Nora fatehi mentioned in a Moroccan Arab program ... that she was born, studied and lived in Canada while her parents are Moroccan of Fassi origin and they divorced when she was 16 years old. Being born in Canada, she's a Canadian citizen, While in Morocco she is Moroccan by descent, by blood right, regardless of where she was born. I will explain one thing to you, after marriage each Moroccan family has a civil family book, no matter in which country they reside, this booklet contains the information of parents and their children, it's like a real administrative paper, like a passport Moroccan. parents register their child in at birth and they are by default Moroccan without needing naturalization.
already you have to be careful between nationality and citizenship and naturalization which are not the same thing ... anyone can have nationality or be naturalized according to the conditions of the countries but citizenship is very difficult to acquire because it generates certain social and political rights. for example charlize theron, jim carrey, justin bieber are naturalized Americans and must choose in which country they want to benefit from citizenship (right to vote, taxes etc).
that said Morocco recognizes dual nationality. While dual citizenship by default is not recognized in Morocco.
So the questions that will have to be asked
- Q: does she have Moroccan nationality ??
- A: according to Moroccan law Article 6, yes by default, by descent, by blood right
- Q: did she follow the procedure to acquire her Moroccan nationality?
- A: I don't know, unfortunately no self-respecting journalist asked him the question.
- Q: is she a Moroccan citizen ??
- A: Morocco does not recognize dual citizenship by default ... which generates voting rights and certain political and social rights. but this Moroccan citizenship can also be acquired under certain conditions.
- Q: can we renounce Moroccan nationality ???
- A: very very difficult, Morocco is one of the countries which prohibit the automatic renunciation of nationality under conditions. The voluntary renunciation of Moroccan citizenship is authorized by law but does not remain automatic and must be approved by the Ministry of Justice and then published in the national official bulletin ... such as the case of cheb khaled who was naturalized Moroccan and published in the Official Bulletin (Source 1) et (Source 2). if it's parents have given up, it would have been published in the official bulletin and the press would have mentioned it ... it is very frowned upon in Morocco.
- Secondly Second, I completely agree with you in the other versions, especially in which I am an editor. we are a limited number of specialist editors and administrators doing their best in terms of rules and policies, but the problem is not that simple, especially in the Arabic wiki, where each country has its own laws which are not necessarily compatible with the laws of other countries. We cannot apply Wikipedia laws in English unless the laws are general due to the peculiarity of Arabic laws. In Arabic or French Wikipedia we care about the origin of the individual, which means that when we write about a person we mention their nationality in addition to their origins in the first place, it is a sign of belonging to a nation, and one intervenes in the discussions only if the person has a negative or non-neutral intention.
- thidrly : It is true that the English Wikipedia is somewhat regulated, whether in terms of laws or rules, and this is due to its being the original with which the encyclopedia began ... But this does not protect it from errors and historical distortion despite the huge number of editors and the social awareness of editing in it ... our colleague mentioned that "Moroccan-Canadian" is a violation of WP: NOR so I allowed myself to deepen my research on this rule so here is what I discovered. For example, among the world's 195 countries, there are 51 countries that prohibit multiple nationalities, among them eight Arab countries are Bahrain, Djibouti, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the Emirates and Yemen. In addition to other countries, most notably Ethiopia, China, Iran, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Ukraine and Vietnam. Etc ... But this law is not recognized in the English Wikipedia, and I do not think that the editors pay attention or search for these details, and the rule itself did not warn of the need to pay attention to nationality laws according to countries, evidenced by the presence of articles by people who present on wiki as having dual nationalities, while the law of the mentioned countries prohibits this as an example. South Korea and Japan prohibit dual nationality, so a person either holds the nationality of South Korea or Japan or holds the nationality of another country without multiple nationalities. This is the law, but I find many articles about personalities from this or that country that Wikipedia knows that they hold both nationalities and this is a violation of the law of countries and the rule . These are examples (The Japanese law requires anyone who was born with or obtained multiple nationality before the age of 20 to pick one of them before their 22nd birthday. Those who acquire citizenship of another country after turning 20 must decide which one to keep within a two-year period.(here) and (As a rule, dual citizenship in Korea is not allowed. The law explicitly states that one who has acquired Korean citizenship must renounce the citizenship of another country within one year, while Korean nationals lose their Korean citizenship as soon as they acquire a foreign one. (Source 1) (Source 2))
some examples of articles violate rule
- Japanese nationality law : Lane Nishikawa Philip Nozuka Tony Sano Harold Sakata James Saito Jun Fujita John Fujioka Sab Shimono Jim Ishida James Yaegashi
- South Korean nationality law : Daniel Dae Kim ; Steven Yeun ; Richard Chai ; Frank Cho ; List of Korean Americans
so, does this rule apply to all articles or not ??? and also the English wikipedia must be felixible according to the laws of the countries ... currently I am very busy in my work but while waiting for more proof of his Moroccan nationality I remain there. I could come back to this article when I have started to write about the actress in Arabic who me allow to have more detail since the personality grants many interviews in Arabic. sorry if I was very slow, I really tried to be short, but when it comes to law, it is to be expected ... I have the impression that I opened the debate on the rights of the nationality compared to the wiki rules ^_^, thank you for all --Aelita14 (talk) 22:11, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Aelita14: Well, that's a lot to digest. It fundamentally boils down to this: Wikipedia does not create original content and it is not our goal to prove ultimate Truth with a capital T. What we are supposed to be doing is summarising what reliable secondary sources have said about the subject. If there are no reliable secondary sources that have stated what her citizenship/nationality status is, then we should not be including it, even if we somehow know or can deduce what we think to be true. Possibly there's an argument to accept the subject's own statement on the matter since it seems rather uncontroversial. Beyond that, we're working too hard. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 23:11, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Cyphoidbomb: It is true, I know that, but I like to search carefully and in depth ... It would have been easy if a journalist asked her, but that didn't happen, and while waiting for that, the situation remains as it is ... But you should not deny that I alerted to loopholes in the rule that apply to articles without Other articles This may sound unfair. In general, thanks for everything, and happy to meet you, sir--Aelita14 (talk) 04:49, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

Just a quick search on Google (whether you look for it in French or in English) would have sufficed to know that she is clearly Moroccan: - https://www.moroccoworldnews.com/2018/04/243656/moroccan-bollywood-actress-nora-fatehi-speaks-out-against-cyberbullying/ - https://www.iwmbuzz.com/movies/photos-movies/nora-fatehi-journey-moroccan-canadian-actress-bollywoods-item-girl/2020/01/23 - http://moroccanladies.com/breaking-news/dilbar-moroccan-canadian-nora-fatehi-searched-song-google-india-25418 - https://www.h24info.ma/lifestyle/video-marocaine-nora-fatehi-epate-linde-danse-ventre/ - https://www.plurielle.ma/people/nora-fatehi-devient-la-celebrite-la-plus-suivie-au-monde-sur-instagram/ - https://www.welovebuzz.com/qui-est-nora-fatehi-la-canado-marocaine-qui-fait-fureur-avec-dilbar/
All sources call her Moroccan. I don't see why you bring your opinions when it is about facts and sources. I personally don't care at all whether she is Moroccan or not, but I also don't care at all if you personally think she is not Moroccan. If all sources say she is Moroccan, she is Moroccan, unless you prove she is not with your own sources... Denying her Moroccan nationality when every single source points to her being Moroccan is actually racist and such bigotry has no place in an encyclopedia that respects itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ucfberrada (talk • contribs) 16:36, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- She is of Moroccan heritage, no denying that, but for Canadian nationality. We do not write heritage or ethnicity in the lead as per WP:NATIONALITY, a basic policy. Her Moroccan heritage is clearly mentioned with reliable sources in the Early life section. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:41, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Cyphoidbomb: Would you weigh in? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:42, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- She is MOROCCAN & CANADIAN, she is not "of Moroccan heritage". Moroccan is a nationality in case you did not know, it is not just a culture we inherit! If you find sources claiming she is Canadian of Moroccan heritage I would have agreed, but all sources call her Moroccan, not "of Moroccan heritage". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ucfberrada (talk • contribs) 16:46, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- That's what we discussed above and decided not to mention "Moroccan" in the lead. See the discussion above you would understand. There is no proof that she holds Moroccan citizenship. The sources do not say explicitly that she is a 'Moroccan national' either, but she was definitely born in Canada, so is a Canadian national. 'Moroccan-Canadian' usage in those sources are nothing but mentions her origins. If she had been born in Morocco then migrated to Canada there would not have been any problem with adding Morocco in the lead sentence. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:53, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

- @Fylindfotberserk: If you want a similar example, look at the actress Emmanuelle Chriqui, born in Canada (therefore Canadian) but from Moroccan parents (therefore Moroccan). Double-nationality is rather common nowadays so I'm quite surprised at you denying something so clearly evident. When you think of Moroccan-Canadian you think of African-American but the two things are completely different. Africa is not a country while Morocco is one. If you're "African-American", your nationality is American. But when it comes to Emmanuelle Chriqui or Nora Fatehi, Moroccan-Canadian points to their double nationalities, Moroccan and Canadian. It is not a matter of culture or heritage or ethnicity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ucfberrada (talk • contribs) 16:57, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- The edits in question seem to be about including "Moroccan" in the lede. In the lede, we typically include a person's nationality because it's a basic 5 Ws fact. She was born in Canada, so that is her nationality. We do not include ethnicity unless it is specifically relevant to why a person is notable. See WP:ETHNICITY. That does not seem to be the case here. It is perfectly fine to indicate in the body of the article that she is of Moroccan descent, which we have done.
If it can be demonstrated that she has Moroccan citizenship, then the matter can be reconsidered. But that fact has to be clearly stated, not inferred based on Moroccan law as discussed above.As for the example of Emmanuelle Chriqui, I'll point out that the "Moroccan-" was added in this edit by the very same person who argued for the inclusion in this article. Kind of upsetting that they didn't remove it after the discussion above. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:06, 6 March 2021 (UTC) Struck through a portion of my response, because citizenship and nationality are not the same thing. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:27, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

- @Cyphoidbomb: I think that you don't seem to understand the difference between an ethnicity and a nationality. Moroccan is her nationality, not her ethnicity. If it was her ethnicity, as it would be the case for an "African-American", I would agree. But Moroccan-Canadian here would refer to her double-nationality, just as for the actress Emmanuelle Chriqui, another Moroccan-Canadian, born in Canada but having both Moroccan and Canadian nationalities. You can check her wikipedia article and you would see that since nationality is a basic 5 Ws fact, it is written in the lede that she is Moroccan-Canadian, being of both Moroccan and Canadian nationalities. All sources call her Moroccan, therefore she is Moroccan. Give me sources saying she is not Moroccan but of "Moroccan heritage" as you call it or else you're putting your biases ahead of facts and sources. 5 sources calling her Moroccan prevail on your opinion on the matter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ucfberrada (talk • contribs) 17:07, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- I understand what ethnicity is and how it differs from nationality. What I'm saying is that "Moroccan", without context is an ambiguous term, as it could either mean someone from Morocco, or it could refer to someone of Moroccan heritage. The subject was not born in Morocco, so we cannot infer that her nationality is Moroccan. The subject was born in Canada. So we know that the subject's nationality is Canadian. We do not know if she holds a Moroccan citizenship. That would be the only way she could be both Canadian and Moroccan, but even then there is a difference between citizenship and nationality. And while Aelita14 attempted to use their understanding of Moroccan law to show why Fatehi must be Moroccan, it's conjecture and constitutes original research. We've had some edit conflicts while both responding to this discussion, so in case you missed it, I noted above that Aelita14 was the same person who added "Moroccan-" to the Chriqui article. Meaning, it probably shouldn't be there either. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:22, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Cyphoidbomb: Why would "Moroccan" be an ambiguous term while "American" or "Canadian" are never considered ambiguous. Why would someone called "Moroccan" be of Moroccan "heritage" while someone called "Canadian" without further context is always considered Canadian. Denying her Moroccan nationality and calling her Canadian rather than Moroccan-Canadian when all sources say she is Moroccan and this only based on your personal opinion and that without bringing a single source to the table testifies to a colonialist way of thinking and is an appalling example of cultural appropriation with as a sole goal the pursuit of supremacism by promoting developed Western countries and belittling less developed Arab countries. Now not only you affirm that Nora Fatehi is not Moroccan without any source, but you also claim that Emmanuelle Chriqui, another Moroccan celebrity, is not Moroccan even if she says in every single one of her interviews that she is Moroccan and that she is proud of being Moroccan. And now what about Adam Lamhamedi, the famous Moroccan alpine skier, born in Canada too, who also has both the Moroccan and Canadian nationalities? The lede of his Wikipedia article also mentions his Moroccan nationality by calling him Moroccan-Canadian. What now? The issue here seems to be that you don't seem to understand that all citizens of the world born of Moroccan parents automatically have the Moroccan nationality at their birth so you will have the same problem for every single Moroccan born in a country other than Morocco. You think it is a matter of "heritage" as you call it while it is a matter of nationality, and that's the way it is, whether you like it or not. So either you bring sources saying all 3 of them are not Moroccans or else you are just trying to put your opinions ahead of facts and sources.
Here are all my sources ; show me yours or else let me modify the lede:

- BLP articles where "American" or "Canadian" is mentioned have sources to back up that those subjects were born in those countries or have citizenship of those countries. Not a single source you provided or the ones already present in the article explicitly say that Fatehi is a "Moroccan national". All these sources mention terms like Moroccan-Canadian or "born to Moroccan origin parents" or "of Moroccan origin". Inferring nationality from these is just plain original research as Cyphoidbomb has put. Those sources can be talking about anything and everything. We can't be sure. But her Canadian nationality is certain since she was born there. Go though WP:OR policy - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:11, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Fylindfotberserk: You either don't know how to read or you are the person with the most bad faith I have ever seen in my life. If you can read, many of those sources don't call her "Moroccan-Canadian" or "born to Moroccan origin parents" or "of Moroccan origin" but just plainly and simply "MOROCCAN". I could even argue that she is even more Moroccan than Canadian but let's not get into those sort of considerations. Just click on the first source and you will see written "Moroccan model Nora Fatehi". Then click on the second source and you will see written "Moroccan Bollywood Actress Nora Fatehi". They don't even say Moroccan-Canadian. They say MOROCCAN. I don't understand what you are trying to do here? Why so much bad faith? Where do you see original research here? All those sources are reliable published sources that I have no link to whatsoever. Wikipedia should have a neutral point of view: if sources say she is Moroccan (and those are sources, NOT ORIGINAL RESEARCH), we should mention that she is Moroccan or else we are being biased.
@Cyphoidbomb: Please be honest, bad faith is bad for Wikipedia... Is there something wrong in what I said to @Fylindfotberserk:?

- First, stop making personal attacks, maintain WP:CIVIL. You have been attacking other users in all of your posts. Attacks like that will get reported. This sourcec says "Moroccan model Nora Fatehi" in the title, but in the article it says "The Moroccan origin model" as well. This one says "Moroccan Bollywood Actress Nora Fatehi Speaks Out Against Cyberbullying" in the title, but in the article body it says "Nora Fatehi is a 27 year-old Moroccan-Canadian actress and dancer". Same with this, this, this, thisthis . This one, this one and this one uses "Moroccan-Canadian" both in the title and the article body. Only this source only says maintains the word "Moroccan" throughout. Perhaps you need to do the reading properly. Why don't you find a source that says something like "Fatehi is a Moroccan national" as per WP:NOR. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:47, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Birth place
@Steam5: It is regarding this edit. While the source mentioned "Toronto" as per birth place, we should note that Pink Villa is not considered reliable as per WP:ICTF WP:ICTFFAQ, The Times of India is, which lists her birthplace as "Montreal". However Hindustan Times, a similarly reliable source mentions "Toronto". There are other reliable sources that mention "Montreal" as well. So either we need to keep both names or only write "Canada" (which is not controversial) as the birthplace, unless we can source an interview or a more authentic source.

RFC: Should "Moroccan" be added to the introductory sentence of the lede?
![]() |

(Prior discussion at Talk:Nora Fatehi#Nationality)
Should "Moroccan" be added to the introductory sentence of the lede to describe Fatehi, changing "is a Canadian dancer..." to "is a Moroccan-Canadian dancer..."? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:45, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- Not yet as nominator. The subject was born in Canada. Her parents are from Morocco. While she likely has dual citizenship, as Moroccan law seems to bestow citizenship onto the children of citizens, none of the previous discussion participants have found evidence that she has retained this citizenship, and I feel that adding it to the lede would be interpretive. Further, there is a difference between citizenship and nationality, and someone who has a legal connection to Morocco might not have allegiance to that nation. She's also not known for work in Moroccan entertainment, or participating in specifically Moroccan projects. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:52, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Cyphoidbomb: Well, I beg to differ: you say that she's not known for work in Moroccan entertainment, or participating in specifically Moroccan projects while it is not true at all. She regularly appears in Moroccan talk-shows and she has had a very successful collaboration with Moroccan hip hop group Fnaïre, with whom Nora Fatehi did the Moroccan version of “Dilbar”, her most successful music hit to date[1]. The song was also composed by a Moroccan, Mohcine Tizaf, and written by Moroccans Khalifa Mennani and Ashraf Aarab. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ucfberrada (talk • contribs) 19:18, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- A poor choice of words on my part: Fatehi is notable for her work in the Indian entertainment industry, not for her work in the Moroccan entertainment industry. While she may have done work related to her Moroccan culture, that is not chiefly what she is known for. Kirsten Dunst is indicated as American, despite the fact that she holds a German passport. Angelina Jolie is indicated as American despite her having Cambodian citizenship as well, and despite having done significant work to preserve wildlife there. Further discussion on this should probably take place in the Discussion section below. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:20, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose: Per above posts. Should only be added if we know explicitly that she is a "Moroccan national" in any of the WP:RS sources abiding by WP:NATIONALITY. Not a single source discussed above in Talk:Nora Fatehi#Nationality or re-added here in the RfC clearly states that. Most of the sources say something like "Moroccan or Moroccan-Canadian model Nora Fatehi" in the title, but in the articles bodies it is mostly "Moroccan-Canadian", "born to Moroccan parents in Canada" and different iterations of the phrase (discussed here). The 'Moroccan' in the sources is an ambiguous term that can be anything, ethnicity, heritage, etc, in which case we are not suppose to use it as per WP:ETHNICITY and obviously WP:OR. Canadian on the other hand is her nationality by birth. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 19:02, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- Just to note, this source only talk about the "Moroccan version" of the song "Dilbar". Nothing about the subject's nationality. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 19:33, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Fylindfotberserk: I was answering @Cyphoidbomb:'s remarks regarding her presumed lack of participation in specifically Moroccan projects, I never said that this source in particular said something about her nationality. For sources regarding her being Moroccan-Canadian, you can see the other ones I gave, where not a single one talk of her as being solely "Canadian" but all talk about her being either "Moroccan" or "Moroccan-Canadian". If we strive for accuracy and exhaustivity, we should therefore use the more neutral "Moroccan-Canadian" rather than the biased and one-sided "Canadian".
- (edit conflict) We do not have to reiterate what's written in the sources. Wikipedia articles should go by Wikipedia policies and guidelines. There are many sources that writes "Punjabi-Canadian" singer, "Indian-American politician" based on ethnicity or descent, but we do not use it in Wikipedia. See Nikki Haley for example, an Indian born in US. These sources → [2] [3] clearly use the term Indian-American, but the Wikipedia article only mentions American in the lead, conforming to the WP:NATIONALITY policy. Is it biased? may be for some but not when Wikipedia policies like WP:NATIONALITY and WP:OR are taken into account. We have to prove through WP:RS sources that the subject (Nora Fatehi) is a "Moroccan national". That's all. The terms 'Moroccan' and 'Moroccan-Canadian' is vague in those sources, meaning we do not know explicitly whether these are referring to the person's nationality, heritage or ethnicity. Canadian on the other hand is certain since that's her birthplace. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 20:06, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

- Well, you don’t seem to understand that Morocco is a country. Punjab is not a country so nobody has a Punjabi citizenship and therefore you can’t put it in the lede of a Wikipedia article. In the lede of a Wikipedia article, we typically only include a person's nationalities because it's a basic 5 Ws fact. You can’t write that someone is African-American or Punjabi-Canadian in the lede of a Wikipedia article but you have to write Moroccan-Canadian because it refers to this person's nationalities/citizenships, not « ethnicities » or « heritage ». You also don’t seem to understand that if your parents are Moroccan, you are Moroccan, you get the citizenship at birth, whereas it seems that for Indians it is not the case, and therefore someone born to Indian parents in America is American not Indian-American, unless that person wants to get the Indian citizenship. But someone born to Moroccans in Canada is Moroccan-Canadian, meaning he has the Moroccan nationality as well as the Canadian one. It is not meant to describe an ethnicity or an « heritage ». You should not use your opinions or original research to say that she is not Moroccan-Canadian, you have to give independent reliable sources like I did. If you want similar cases, look for the Wikipedia articles for Emmanuelle Chriqui or Adam Lamhamedi, two other famous Moroccans both born in Canada to Moroccan parents. Look also to the Nora Fatehi French Wikipedia article. All three articles use Moroccan-Canadian to refer to the exact same case we have here. If all the sources I gave said African-Canadian or Arab-Canadian to refer to her, I would agree with you, since those would not refer to nationality but to ethnicity. But when it comes to the name of countries, like it is the case for Moroccan-Canadian, it refers to nationalities/citizenships and have therefore to be written in the lede of a Wikipedia article in order for it to be accurate and exhaustive. And as sources reflect, if it would be accurate to describe her as « Moroccan » or « Canadian », those descriptions standing alone would be incomplete, since she is both. « Moroccan-Canadian » is the most accurate, well-sourced, and precise.

- Yes, it should be added: As sources reflect, it would be accurate to describe her as « Moroccan » and it would be equally accurate to describe her as « Canadian » — however, those descriptions standing alone would be incomplete, since she is both. « Moroccan-Canadian » is the most accurate, well-sourced, and precise. Here are just a few of the sources I found either calling her "Moroccan" or "Moroccan-Canadian" (note that not a single one of them describes her as being solely "Canadian"): [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] [11] [12] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ucfberrada (talk • contribs) 19:22, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
