message: Accolades section shows he won an Oscar in 2017 for Arrival.
I agree he deserved it over that La La Land nonsense, but maybe Wikipedia should stick to facts

replies: text: For instance :Tim Burton does not have it. I checked several other actor-directors and did not find it. Can you show where you found it and explain why it should be added here and nowhere else? Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:24, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Frequent Collaborators 

message: It appears that the convention for biographical articles includes stating the person's citizenship in the first sentence. Citizenship, NOT ethnicity. However, for several famous Canadians from Quebec, they are identified as "French-Canadian". When I try to correct this to "Canadian", the change is reversed very quickly; this happened again tonight with Denis Villeneuve, the Director. He has no connection to France.
If ethnicity is used, not citizenship, then it's time to get Martin Scorsese's and Madonna's articles changed to "Italian-American". No? Sounds like hypocrisy and ignorance.  2607:FEA8:BF21:C800:8DBB:1967:E49B:5EE7 (talk) 04:06, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: To weigh in on this recurring discussion - I agree that the citizenship convention should apply here and “Canadian” should be in the first sentence. French-Canadian falls in the category of Italian-American or German-Argentinian - it refers to an ethnicity or cultural status. I realize that Quebecois want to clarify their identity, but it's not yet a separate citizenship. Further clarification on Villeneuve’s cultural ties should be added in later sentences.
