Talk:Nenad Medić

Untitled

I removed the claim that Medic chose not play basketball professionally, lacking proper referencing. I consider it highly suspect that he had any pro prospects given his stats at Waterloo, not exactly a hoops powerhouse. [1] Doctofunk (talk) 19:52, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Canadian or Serb?

What evidence points to Medic self-identifying as Canadian over Serb or Serbian, when he clearly uses "Serb" as his online pseudonym and nickname, not "Canadian". --A.Molnar (talk) 06:14, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

He was born in Apatin, Serbia, Yugoslavia, but is a Canadian citizen[2], Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies) states that in the opening paragraph "In the normal case this will mean the country of which the person is a citizen or national, or was a citizen when the person became notable." and that "Ethnicity should generally not be emphasized in the opening unless it is relevant to the subject's notability". ▪◦▪≡SiREX≡^Talk 06:30, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

He is likely also a citizen of Serbia, as both countries allow for dual citizenship and he automatically became a citizen of Serbia when he was born there. So, again, what is the logic of stating he is Canadian in the first sentence, over Serbian? --24.226.16.137 (talk) 06:59, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

It's been stated on ESPN[3] and on Cardplayer[4] that he's Canadian If you have a source that states he has dual citizenship with Serbia please provide it, then his dual citizenship can be noted in the article, to say he must hold dual citizenship because both countries allow it, albeit a logical conclusion is considered original research and is not allowed.▪◦▪≡SiREX≡^Talk 09:33, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

How am i supposed to get access to his birth certificate and citizenship documentation? Pretty sure that's confidential. The only thing i can do is ask him personally to declare himself because I know the guy. --A.Molnar (talk) 19:34, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

You could ask him to say so in a reliable third party publication such as Cardplayer.com or PokerNews.com, it must not be you asking yourself, then using your private conversation as the reason for the edit, as that would be WP:OR. Verifiability is the threshold, so it very well may be that he holds more then one citizenship but it needs to be verified. thank you. ▪◦▪≡SiREX≡^Talk 21:25, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm just going to let the last edit stand as this may end being a WP:LAME editwar, as it can be said he is Serbian-Canadian irrespective of citizenship, however ethnicity shouldn't be emphasized and does touch on Nationalism which shouldn't be done when editing just facts, an another editor or admin may still object though.▪◦▪≡SiREX≡^Talk 18:01, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
