His ethnicity is actually Ethiopian-Yemeni, he's admitted to this once on his tiktok page. Jimmybingus (talk) 23:42, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Not on the Japanese Wikipedia yet?
editThis guy is the O. J. Simpson of Japan, appeared all over major headlines in Japan, and still isn't on the Japanese Wikipedia? Why don't we create something about him there? MaghrebiFalafel (talk) 18:40, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- He is on the Japanese Wikipedia, it just hasn't been linked, I'll link it now RowanJ LP (talk) 14:15, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- It was created and then deleted. See ja:Wikipedia:削除依頼/ジョニー・ソマリ, and check out Japanese wiki's relevant notability guidelines before proceeding. – robertsky (talk) 08:36, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

He has stated numerous times that he is of Ethiopian (Oromo) and Yemeni descent. In this clip https://x.com/dlkadadkadiinta/status/1777549230900642273?s=46 he explains why he cosplays as a Somali American when in reality he is an American of mixed ancestry with immigrant parents.

This person is not noteworthy.
editThis article should be deleted, it adds no value to the Wikipedia project - there are hundreds of thousands of petty criminals globally, we shouldn't be creating pages for every nobody out in the world who commits minor crimes and who's only noteworthy mention is that theyre revenue for youtube content creators. 2001:8003:E451:A200:F93C:A18F:DD7A:DA7B (talk) 06:27, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with your opinion to delete this page, as the only reason for the public awareness of him is his effort to merely seek public attention by making obscene gestures or doing acts that disturb the general public. Dedicating a page to his name merely encourages copycats to follow in his footsteps, and Wikipedia should not be used a medium of public attention for people with histrionic personalities. clayjar (talk) 22:46, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

NOT JEWISH
editAccording to the BBC article cited, his mother is an "Oromo Ethiopian", and there is not mention of his mother being "Ethiopian-Jewish" or "Beta-Israel". Vandalism 2A02:14F:173:FE1:E4E4:B4E3:7AF5:2928 (talk) 11:28, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
Japanese Article that Includes police investigation ascertaining to johnny somalis ethnicity as ethiopian
editYou will find it in page 2 where its stated Suspect Khalid is said to be of Ethiopian descent... the wiki page should be changed since it is wrong to label him as somali when this national japanese news article clearly debunks this. Braveeagle836 (talk) 20:16, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thw current enwiki article says "Ismael was born in Phoenix, Arizona, to a Somali father and an Ethiopian mother". So he's both. seefooddiet (talk) 21:28, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- The article being used is a spam article while the one I provided is a credible national japanese news article which also includes a police investigation and they clearly stated him to be ethiopian. Many other sources also debunk his claim of being of somali descent. Braveeagle836 (talk) 05:28, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
