I request to edit that he is not Jewish but has a Jewish father, his mother is not Jewish, and he was not raised Jewish nor did he convert. You erroneously list him as Jewish and he’s not. AvaZelen (talk) 10:22, 22 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
@KEmel49 So are these the parameters for verification in Wikipedia nowadays? any article which makes a claim, even if buttressed by the plain reality written a few words later "born to a Jewish father" is taken at face value?? jussie has never personally identified as Jewish, and until a reliable source demonstrates as much, the Times of Israel's assertion doesn't mean anything. 61.244.234.218 (talk) 13:38, 1 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
