Talk:List of Hungarian Jews

Alanis Morissette
There is no official information divulging that Alanis Morrissette is Jewish, but there are clues that she may be Jewish descent. She got her surname from her father, a French Canadian, but her mother was a Hungarian immigrant to Canada named Georgia Mary Ann Feuerstein. That's a Jewish surname, and certainly not a Hungarian one. And if her mother's Jewish, she is as well. The only other possibility is that Alanis's mom is a Hungarian of German descent, but if that's the case, why don't any sources say so? My hunch, especially since everyone I've ever heard of with the name Feuerstein has been Jewish, is that Alanis's mom was a Jew whose family wanted to keep a low profile due to anti-Semitism. But this is only a theory that so far remains unverified in any official source. Can anyone confirm this? Maybe, you, Alanis??Barmispain (talk) 10:40, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Actress, not Actor
This list has female actresses listed as actors. Someone correct this. 205.174.22.28 04:42, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

"I did not object to his opinion, but the way he expressed it made it sound as if he were speaking for all Jews, and it was insulting to have someone I disagreed with claiming to express my opinion."

Péter Nádas
Can anyone please confirm if the acclaimed contemporary writer Péter Nádas is of Jewish descent? This certainly appears to be so from apparently autobiographic elements in his novel: 'A Family Story'. --RCSB 30 April 2005

I asked the same question and found in this article that Nadaz is Jewish. http://www.theguardian.com/books/2011/nov/11/peter-nadas-parallel-stories-review — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.191.250.61 (talk) 18:38, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Yes, well, the citation is somewhat equivocal, given the diametrically opposed positions that Horton and Nuland take on the subject. However, Nuland did write the biography and presumably carried out more extensive research than did Horton, the reviewer. Also, I haven't found any other credible citation showing that Semmelweis was a Jew. (Yes, a Hungarian named Ignaz + a German last name would seem to make a good candidate... but not in this case, it would appear.) --Maxn 19:06, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Hungarian:

Merge with Eastern European Jews

 * It doesn't make much sense to have the Czech and Ukrainian Jews on a list together and not have the Hungarian Jews on the same list (as the Jews in those countries were much more numerous than in Hungary). So, I propose a merge to cut down on the lists and make everything more organized.(anon)

 * Mmm. Hungarian Jewish community (Unger) has it's world. like Litvak.(Sheynhertz)

 * There are more jews that lived in Ukraine than Hungary but you don't see a separate page for them. These extra pages are nothing more than fluff as Hungary is as applicable to East Europe as any of the others on that list.(anon)

 * Hungary is not an Eastern European country, so why should Hungarian Jews be put on a list of Eastern European Jews? The Czech Republic and its predecessor Czechoslovakia are/were not Eastern European countries either. If this list is to be combined with any other, perhaps combine the Hungarian, Czech, Slovene and Austrian Jews on a "List of Central European Jews".(anon)

 * Question of size - this list looks big enough to be viable on its own. - Newport 18:43, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

 * I searched "Hungary" on Jewish Encyclopedia. --Sheynhertzגעשׁ״ך 08:16, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
 *

 * I disagree! The Jews of Hungary were a unique community, greatly assimilated and intertwined with general Hungarian culture and history. The history of Hungary without its Jews is incomplete in a qualitatively different way than the history of Poland would be without the history of Polish Jews. From some historical point onward (I do not know which it was), the Jews in Hungary ceased to be seperate from the general populace. This cannot be said of Jews in any other part of Eastern Europe. Hungarian Jews were closer to their fellow countrymen than they were to the shtetl Jews of Eastern Europe. They contributed mightily to Hungarian arts, science and politics. In fact, nearly every famous Hungarian personality, whether it be in mathematics (von Neumann, Erdos), chess (Polgar sisters), music (Mahler, Gyorgy Ligetti) literature (Kertesz, Nadas?) and so on, has had Jewish origins. These facts cannot be discounted. Hands off Hungarian Jews! Do not attempt to rewrite history and force them into the xenophobic club they havn't been interested in for generations. RCSB 20:57, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

George Olah
Jinfo fails to provide a source for Olah, in fact, there is much "assuming" as the following is said about him:

"He states "I do not want to relive here in any detail some of my very difficult, even horrifying, experiences of this period, hiding out the last months of the war in Budapest. Suffice it to say that my parents and I survived." That statement is the closest he comes to identifying himself as being Jewish.  Nearly everything in the book is consistent with an upper middle class Hungarian Jewish background, with the exception of his attendance at the Gymnasium of the Piarist Fathers, a Roman Catholic teaching order."

As it is obvious we are dealing with assumptions here, it is safe to say Olah should not be listed on this page nor have categories attached to him based solely on assumptions. 70.146.15.71 18:22, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Sandor Ferensczi also lacks a source on Jinfo. Unless another can be found, the default is to remove. 70.146.15.71 18:22, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

 * On Olah, jinfo gives a source that says very clearly that he was Jewish: "Yet for months thereafter our Jewish classmates could still attend our Catholic high school and, after the interruptions of the 1944-45 winter, graduated there. (One of them, Mr. George Olah, now an American citizen, just received the Nobel prize a few years ago and went back to visit his old school with pride.)"  And "While Freud would regularly confirm to his Jewish colleagues like Karl Abraham and Sándor Ferenczi"  (Needs a subscription, but the relevant words are visible on a Google search.)--Newport 21:24, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Why do we need another source for Ferenczi? jinfo is a good enough source by itself. If it gave a source, people could argue that that source did not have a source, and we'd get into an infinite regression! --20.138.246.89 13:38, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

The Gabors
Wikipedia works by WP:V and WP:NOR. We report what reliable sources say. In the case of Eva and Zsz Zsa Gabor, the Israel News Agency says that they are Jewish, so we report that. Nobody is saying that they aren't Catholic as well; if a reliable source says that they are Catholic, they can go in a list of Hungarian Catholics as well. To assert that they are not Jewish because their father wasn't, or because they or some relative practise another religion, clearly breaches WP:NOR. It can equally be argued that because their mother was Jewish, they are undoubtedly Jewish in orthodox Jewish law, but I am not relying on that. --Brownlee 20:35, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Clean up?
I have no objections to tidying up the list by re-arrangement and the addition of extra categories. I have the strongest objection to the removal of undoubted Hungarian Jews, even rabbis.--20.138.246.89 11:12, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I ask again, why are you reverting? What "undoubted Jews" are permanently removed from this list as you claim? Once again, the only name to be removed is Albert Ehrenstein as he was born and lived in the Austrian Empire and is an Austrian. . You cannot revert a users edit without good reason, because otherwise it comes off as a personal attack. You also cannot remove s without first finding a source. 72.144.139.35 04:59, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

All new additions without articles need sources
Also to any further contributions, before adding names to this list that do not explicitly state in their wikipedia articles that the person is Jewish or Hungarian, you need a source per the following established note:

<--When adding names to the list, please include a reliable source that explicitly describes the person added as "Jewish" or "Hungarian Jewish" (or a source where the person describes themselves as such) - not their father, mother, etc., in accordance with the No Original Research policy.-->

Thanks. 72.144.139.35 05:04, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

From reliable sources "The responsibility for finding and adding references lies with the person adding material to an article, and sources should be provided whenever possible." 72.144.139.35 05:10, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Reach consensus before making changes
I have reverted changes by 72.144.139.35. I understand there's a disagreement as to who should or should not be on this list. Please build consensus before making changes, as is required by Wikipedia policy, see WP:CON. Thank you. -- Steve Hart 03:17, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Hi Steve Hart. Observing the changes implemented, it can be seen that no names were removed from the previous version except Albert Ehrenstein who was an Austrian, not Hungarian per given references above. Furthermore it has recently been established that one cannot add or subtract names from a list without references or (in the case of subtraction) lack-of references. Otherwise, clean-up and organization can be implemented per WP:BOLD. If there is a dispute over the addition of substraction of a name, please revert to a version before the change in question rather than a whole-sale revert. Also, for future reference, when asking for a NPOV consensus, a moderator typically should revert to a version that was not edited by either of the users in the conflict. Thanks. 72.144.68.74 16:31, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Hi. There's a broader discussion at Talk:List of German Jews, I'm replying over there -- Steve Hart 19:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Sources Dispute
There is a citation for Bela's mother being a non-Jewish German. His first language was even German, so this has significance. If Encyclopedia Judaica say's that Bela's mother was Jewish as well, please "quote" that sentence and use it as a source for removing the statement about his father being Jewish. In which case, we will need to find a third source indicating which is the truth. Anything else can easily be interpreted as a violation of WP:CITE. Numerous figures who are only partially Jewish in origin have articles in Encyclopedia Judaica. This makes absolutely no conflict with the previous edit. 141.213.211.81 10:44, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Someone is Jewish if a reputable source says they are Jewish and no reputable source says explicitly that they are not. Anything else violates WP:NOR.  In particular, the languages they can speak are irrelevant to whether they are Jewish.  As 141.213.211.84 well knows, the fact that Encyclopedia Judaica includes an article on someone is an explicit statement by its editors that they regard the person as Jewish; no further citation is needed.--20.138.246.89 11:17, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

 * The source says only his father was Jewish explicitly. Haven't you lectured on how it is wrong to not note was a source says? So Encyclopedia Judaica does not include articles of people who are partial in Jewish origin? This is an ethnicity list, not simply a cultural or religious identity list (we don't even know if Bela was religiously or culturally Jewish). 141.213.211.81 11:41, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

George Soros' father is mentioned twice on the list: once as Tivadar Soros, writer, once as Teodoro (??) Schwartz, businessman - pls cancel one of the two (Auguste, Hungarian Wiki)
 * Done; well spotted.--Runcorn 22:38, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Brassai
We have two good references that say explicitly that Brassai was Jewish:

 * "we find Jews making significant contributions ... Gyula Halasz as Brassai"

 * "Three of the greatest photographers of the 20th century, Andre Kertesz, Robert Capa and Brassai, were Hungarian Jews" --Runcorn 22:35, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

 * The former does not state explicitly that Brassai is Jewish, though natural sentence flow would suggest it to be the case. These are not separate sources. I e-mailed the author of the latter and asked if he has a source for his statements. He directed me to a link of the former who, in turn, response to that comment was that "he heard this information from friends." Feel free to do the same if there is doubt. WP:RS is an important policy to follow closely here. Are the authors of these two articles better experts on Brassai than his memoirs (Brassai: Letters to My Parents) and this biography? (Halász Gyula: A századik év küszöbén. Bukarest, 1967)

 * Also it is important to note that every one of his biographies mention his mother as an Armenian, not Hungarian nor Hungarian-Jewish. 141.213.55.112 18:59, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Comments? 141.213.55.112 18:57, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Found my way here via WP:3O. Hm... tricky. To be fair, while a person should probably be considered an expert on their own heritage, they're not necessarily neutral about it -- though the same could be true about the two columnists mentioned above. I would say that both sources linked make a clear point that Brassai is Jewish, but only one of them seems to pin him down specifically as Hungarian.

 * While your email communication with the author of the second article is a concern, that seems to be venturing into an area of original research that gives me pause. Generally, I think, the idea is to report what others have already said and published, assuming that reliable sources are, well, reliable.

 * But, as you mentioned, neither his memoir nor the biography mention his being Hungarian-Jewish. i haven't read either of these, but I'm inclined to take your word for it. From the look of things, most of the letters in Brassai's memoir were written and sent during the 1920s and 1930s? If so, I'm inclined to think that a Jew in Europe would have been likely to keep tight-lipped about that, during that time period.

 * My impression at this point is that we can probably pin him down as being Jewish. I'm less sure about whether we could safely say he's Hungarian. Luna Santin 19:41, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

One source, a not terribly good one, states he is Jewish. Two excellent sources state he is not. The second source does not state he is Jewish, but merely remarks that his name sounds Jewish, hardly a RS. This is insufficient for a self-proclaimed Christian who mentions in letters and memoirs that he is Christian, and mentions celebrating Christmas. KillerChihuahua?!? 22:31, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Gyula Halász
Istvan Remenyi Gyenes wrote that Gyula Halász was Jewish because they said he was another non-Magyar emigrant photographer. This was a mention of his Armenian background and not any Jewish. Gyenes said that Gyula Halász was mentioned in the Magyar Jewish Lexikon. This was another Gyula Halász, one born in a dozen years before Gyula Halasz, Brassai. I put the statement in the edit summary box and have removed him from this page. Here is the page with the other Gyula Halász http://mek.oszk.hu/04000/04093/html/0348.html
 * This is original research. We have a reliable source that Brassai was Jewish, and Wikipedia goes by what reliable sources say.--20.138.246.89 12:44, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I changed your edits because you are mistaken. Gyula Halász, Brassai, is not the same Gyula Halász of Istvan Gyenes, and there is a statement from the Magyar Zsido Lexikon revising the error which I had placed in the edit summary. I wish you would pay greater attention in the future. Also, if you do not read Hungarian you can read either Gyula Halász's Letters to Parents or Roger Grenier's biography of Gyula Halász. I believe they should confirm this for you. Here is also a link http://mek.oszk.hu/04000/04093/html/0348.html for you to sift through the lexikon and see for yourself. It is also true that you may notice comments on the journalist article that point out the mistake. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.92.18.12 (talk) 14:29, 25 April 2007 (UTC).

Orphaned references in List of Hungarian Jews
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of Hungarian Jews's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

 * I too had long thought that "Anthony Quinn" was a nom de Hollywood. But Quinn's memoir, The Original Sin, is rightly decisive in this matter.202.36.179.65 21:44, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Acting: no mention of "Barabbas (1962)"
Kind of surprised there's no mention of the film "Barabbas(1962)" Millions of people got Quinn's image burned into the memory as the face of the man who was spared cruxifiction by the Jerusalem mob who chose to spare him versus Jesus, according to the Bible. I'd think that the film is notable, irrespective of the movie's box office performance, or reviews of Quinn's performance. It is widely screened on TV every year during the Easter season, and that must make it one of his most watched films, not only in the United States, but in all predominently Christian countries.

Why I rewrote much of this entry
I often consult Wikipedia on show business matters. Nearly always, the entries all well-written, and I would guess that that is the case because they are written by professional publicists. This entry is a curious exception; while I cannot dispute the facts, the prose was in need of a lot of polish, which I proceeded to supply. I revere Quinn as a Hollywood giant and as a manly man, but have not seen all that many of his films (e.g., I have never seen Viva Zapata). My favorite Quinn role is the title role in The Magus. I did not know that Quinn was a rogue in the bedroom until I read this entry. I suppose the idea of bearing Anthony Quinn's child must have thrilled more than one pretty woman.202.36.179.65 21:55, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Tonight show
In an earlier appearance on The Tonight Show hosted by Johnny Carson, Quinn remarked that people were coming up to him and saying, "ZORBA", carrying on in Greek in a vain attempt at conversation. I think he was being modest because he said, "I don't speak a word of Greek. I'm Mexican." I recently saw him in a Fellini film, speaking what sounded, (to me), like perfect Italian. Granted, competency in Spanish, English and Italian do not a Greek speaker make.--W8IMP 03:13, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Opening paragraph rewrite - 5/23/08
Quinn was both an actor and "movie star" of considerably greater note than the former lead indicated. The article as a whole does a decent and well-intended job of skimming through Quinn's career but misses several essential points - that he was a massive presence in the films he made, that he was a major box office draw, and that most of his films prior to 1970 were A level major studio releases that were widely discussed and frequently very popular.

The shortcomings of this article are reflective of a broad problem in Wiki articles on popular culture: since computer/internet use in the U.S. still skews rather younger than older, articles tend do give undue weight to living subjects and relatively recent phenomena. The median age in the U.S. is now 36.5 years or so, which would put half the country born in 1971 or after. That could account for why cinema lightweights like James van der Beek and Jennifer Aniston among many others get as much cyber ink as a figure of far greater significance as Quinn was and is. (A related outrage - one of hundreds - would be to compare space given to Gary Cooper to Tom Cruise - other heavyweight vs. flyweight examples abound.)

The rewrite of the lead is a first step. The rest of the article provides, as noted above, an acceptable framework on which to build an article more worthy of its subject. Sensei48 (talk) 05:30, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 * "...he was a massive presence in the films he made..." POV?
 * "...he was a major box office draw..." CITE?
 * Tom Cruise's box office receipts flyweight??? Compare his receipts as a percentage against production cost of the film, and as a percentage of that years gross, versus Cooper.
 * The bottom line what is "hip" at the moment will get the most "ink" (then) / "webspace" (now). It is called Pop Culture. IP4240207xx (talk) 06:53, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 * ...he was a massive presence in the films he made.
 * Supportable from critics, but of course virtually any statement about a film can be.

 * Tom Cruise's box office receipts flyweight??? Compare his receipts as a percentage against production cost of the film, and as a percentage of that years gross, versus Cooper.''

''
 * The clear sense of my rewrite and comments are about the artistry of the actor, not about the receipts s/he generates. Surely you are being disingenuous on this point. I know of neither any major serious critic nor any reputable film historian who takes Cruise seriously as anything other than a pretty boy movie star; Cooper, Gable, Tracy, Fonda, Stewart and a few others are iconic figures in American film acting - need a citation?

 * ''The bottom line what is "hip" at the moment will get the most "ink" (then) / "webspace" (now). It is called Pop Culture.

''
 * My point exactly. And there is nothing more fundamentally antithetical to the nature of an encyclopedia than that. There are plenty of editors out there in hosts of articles who are striving to make Wikipedia something more than a message board for pop culture - or pop perception. Sensei48 (talk) 09:49, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 * If it is from a credible source, that is what is needed, doesn't matter if you or I agree with it, at least it takes it out of POV & OR. That is the point. It doesn't matter what you or I think. No Original Research; No Point of View. We are not writers here, we are the editors with the red pencil gathering sources. Cruise v. Cooper: You don't say what criteria in your original sentence, you just say: "(A related outrage - one of hundreds - would be to compare space given to Gary Cooper to Tom Cruise - other heavyweight vs. flyweight examples abound.)" So, I was trying to make a point, On What Basis? You have no idea about how I feel about Cooper or Cruise, and if you take WIKI Policy to heart, you never will. I am just the guy with the red pencil trying to get you to be a better contributor. But, if you are really smart, and check the edit history's, you will find that I have spent a lot more time with Quinn and Cooper than with Pitt and Cruise, and that should just be about all you need to know about me and what I think. But, lets just dot the "T's" and cross the "I's" shall we. IP4240207xx (talk) 10:32, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Hello again IP4 - I neglected to add this page we've been discussing to my watchlist and hence missed your comments of 24 May until now. The first and really only significant response I would make is that I wouldn't at this point disagree with your revision of my sentence in the lede - until and unless I gather what you or another editor would find to be acceptable sourcing. Even as revised, it still works better than what I replaced in terms of establishing WP:Note.

 * Please note that I have restricted my other comments and observations to which you take exception to Talk pages; they are observations inviting just such response as you made and to which I have counter-responded. Cruise vs. Quinn is not a real issue, and I didn't intend it to be anything more than a Talk page note - not a significant point in an article requiring proper sourcing.

 * The functionality of working on Wiki articles is a somewhat different point, however. As I'm sure you're well aware (note that I am not questioning "if you are really smart" - please add a smiley here), even creditable objective sourcing can be found for a broad range of apparently POV statements regarding art and culture. Richard Schickel might well love a film or actor that Kenneth Turan hates, yet the stature as critics of both would make either an acceptable source.

 * The consequence of this is that on Wiki the function of editing transcends that of red penciling, which is actually more the province of copy editing. A better example of editing might be found in what Ezra Pound did with T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land - in suggesting edits that amounted to removing about half of the original text, Pound helped Eliot create what amounts to a different (and in general critical consideration, a better) poem, leading Eliot to dedicate the poem to Pound, referring to him as "il miglior fabbro" - "the better maker" or "the better craftsman." The fact that Wiki has a qualitative rating scale for articles and that administrators often demand extreme revisions to existing articles before they are promoted to a higher level on that scale puts the act of editing here on a different footing than one of merely of finding sources for points already expressed.

 * And if you understand that - and look across the broad range of my edits on a host of other subjects, characterized by careful sourcing and civility in language and attitude - then you will be a better contributor. Sensei48 (talk) 19:10, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Greek confusion
Due to his high-profile Greek-character roles, not just Zorba but also Aristotle Onassis and Guns of Navarone, I am certain I have seen printed articles and definitely online articles, erroneously referring to Anthony Quinn as being, himself, Greek. Of course when I want to add the information, I can't find it. So I'm mentioning it here in case anyone can provide sourcing so it can be added to the article that despite being Mexican, Quinn is often mistaken for Greek because of these roles. He's in good company: Israeli-born Chaim Topol is often thought of as a Russian actor because of Fiddler on the Roof. 68.146.81.123 (talk) 18:37, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Christianity / Charismatic ?
I am puzzled why this article about a Hollywood movie actor would interest WikiProject Christianity / Charismatic. Late in life he joined an evangelical Christian church, but so what? HairyWombat 01:47, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Later. I have removed WikiProject Christianity / Charismatic. HairyWombat 13:29, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Awards
I have moved the awards into a single sub-section; for some reason they were separated. The two tables still need to be combined. I don't know why they were ever separate, so hesitate to do this myself. Perhaps somebody who knows better the history of this page should do this. HairyWombat 14:14, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

Later. I have removed one of the two tables. HairyWombat 13:33, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Manner of article - major rewrtie
Quinn is famous as an actor. I think this article was started long before the MOS for these types of article was created. Nowadays they discusses the career rather than just make a narrative, with the acting fitted in along the way.

This article should start with his career, then add a personal life to fill in the rest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.184.123.245 (talk) 11:11, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

 * I couldn't find a MOS that suggested a structure for this article. I did find Manual of Style (biographies) which seems relevant, and WikiProject Biography which is unhelpful as it doesn't actually mention Structure at all. (Whatever happened to Truth in Advertising?) I would encourage you to go ahead with this rewrite, but don't expect any help. This article has not been "adopted" by anyone, so you will be on your own. Best of luck. HairyWombat 14:10, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Location of Death
The location of death in the info box on top right does not match what's described under title Death in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.60.28.223 (talk) 20:27, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I fixed it. --V111P (talk) 22:03, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Birth name needs clarification
The article has at least two conflicting versions of his birth name -- one in the body of the text (Antonio Reyes), another in the Box (Antonio Rodolfo Quinn Oaxaca). Can someone with access to good sources sort out this confusion? Nandt1 (talk) 16:17, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

 * I tracked the insertion of the supposed birth name Antonio Reyes to an anonymous editor with no record on WP. It is inconsistent with other entries in the same article, and the cited sources that I also looked up, and also unconnected to his parents' names, so I felt these were good reasons to revert.  Nandt1 (talk) 20:52, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Birth name: Antonio Rodolfo or Anthony Rudolph?
Having disposed of Sr. Reyes (above), I see that we still have an issue over his first name at birth. Our article says Antonio, but a couple of sources say Anthony. Would someone like to look further into this aspect? Nandt1 (talk) 21:01, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

 * So, I found obituaries from the New York Times and from the British papers The Guardian and The Independent, all three of which I would consider serious sources as newspapers go. All give the birth name as Anthony Rudolph [Quinn Oaxaca] rather than Antonio Rodolfo as in our article (his father being half Irish and half Mexican -- and himself apparently going by either Francisco or Frank -- either of the spellings could be plausible a priori).  Anyone else have anything to offer on this?  Nandt1 (talk) 14:40, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Was he really Mexican American?
I don't see any reference that shows Anthony Quinn obtained U.S. citizenship. If not, he should technically be referred to as a Mexican actor, not a Mexican American. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.23.214.4 (talk) 05:35, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

Children
His autobiography mentions an additional unnamed French son. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.136.164.83 (talk) 16:19, 26 May 2014 (UTC)

More FLW influence?
When I was an architecture student, a batch of us went to Taliesin. On our tour, one of the tales we were told was that Quinn was born tongue-tied. Wright was supposedly the one who urged Quinn to get a surgical repair of the condition. It would improve client presentations for him if he stayed in architecture and it paved the way for his acting career. Is there any truth to this tale? Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 00:15, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

Mafia section should go
There is a small but significant section on Quinn's alleged interest in the Mafia. The longer first paragraph has no citation, the second short paragraph has one citation that doesn't exist and a second from an interview of others, conducted by a game show host, given after Quinn's death. This requires readers to find the interview and go through it, looking for such a dubious claim. The section says Quinn had a "personal relationship" with organized crime figures. It is all vague and unproven. Perhaps Quinn merely wanted to play an Italian character and was doing research. It would be like saying Quinn was the Pope because he played one in a movie (which he did, of course). The Mafia section should be completely erased for lack of evidence.Purplethree (talk) 16:18, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Disagree with such a drastic solution. But I'd be interested in hearing what others have to say. Quis separabit?  02:48, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Cancer
Quinn actually died of pneumonia and throat cancer. (217.42.104.101 (talk) 16:02, 27 April 2016 (UTC))

Nationality in lead
All his notable activities were in the US, he's done nothing notable in Mexico and article states he wasn't even accepted in Mexico due to his name. MOS:CONTEXTBIO says "neither previous nationalities nor the country of birth should be mentioned in the lead unless relevant to the subject's notability" so Mexico shouldn't be in the intro sentence or lead as not relevant to his notability. Geraldo Perez (talk) 22:41, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

 * I'd say his Mexican background is quite relevant. See last sentence of second paragraph: he remains a seminal figure of Latin-American representation in the media of the United States. Also, it seems his Mexican nationality has always been mentioned in the lede until quite recently. Unless there is consensus to the contrary, we should re-add it. Vpab15 (talk) 07:58, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The phrase you quoted is in the lead already and is sufficient lead mention of the impact his ancestry had on his notability. Latin-American is a cultural attribute and that description covers much more than just being from Mexico. MOS:CONTEXTBIO gives the justification for Mexico/Mexican not being in the lead as specifically being from Mexico was not a contribution to his notability. He left Mexico as a child, it has no more relevance for him than any other person with Mexican ancestry. Having it in the lead, and more specifically in the intro sentence, in the past went against the MOS guidance. Generally we need a local consensus decision to deliberately go against the MOS, not one to conform to it. Geraldo Perez (talk) 16:57, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The discussion is whether his Mexican background is relevant per MOS or not. In case of no consensus, we should go back to the status quo and re-add it. Vpab15 (talk) 18:45, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * It is an accident of birth, no more. Pretty major stretch to say it is relevant to his notability and there is nothing in the article that supports relevance so MOS says leave it out. Latin-American is mentioned in the lead and covers what is important. Article said Mexican-American for most of the article history. For some periods article said Mexican and American, and Mexican born American. Article has said American actor since I changed it in April from Mexican-American. Mexican-American is an ethnicity tag, not an nationality. Mexican born could be justified only if relevant to notability. Mexican and American actor is incorrect as he never was a notable Mexican actor - that construction is only used for people with notable activities in both countries. Geraldo Perez (talk) 19:05, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The lead now mentions he is Mexican-American. I don't mind changing it to any of the alternative formulas (eg. Mexican born), as long as his Mexican background is mentioned. Vpab15 (talk) 09:25, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I strongly disagree with Mexican-American in the intro sentence as that is purely an ethnicity tag like African-American, Jewish-American and others. I reverted your changes to the status-quo of the article before your changes and expected to follow WP:BRD process. You have not made a case to go against the manual of style by showing in any way why his Mexican ancestry has any bearing on his notability. Geraldo Perez (talk) 14:44, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * WP:CONTEXTBIO specifically states Per the above guidance, we do not add ethnicity ("Jewish-American") or country of birth ("Russian-born American"). These details can be introduced in the second sentence if they are of defining importance.) Schazjmd   (talk)  15:36, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * That is just an example for Isaac Asimov. It doesn't mean the same applies to every single person. Vpab15 (talk) 15:41, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Asimov was used as the example for the general rule that was being applied. The statement does not apply to only Asimov, but to all people with similar backgrounds such as Quinn. Quinn's physical appearance seems relevant to his notability, though, and that is related to his Mexican/Irish/Cherokee ancestry. Put something in the second sentence as an attempt at compromise. Cherokee is sourced but not mentioned in article. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:46, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * @Vpab15, each example is chosen to illustrate a specific case; Asimov was used to illustrate someone who emigrated as a child and continued to identify as a citizen of their adopted country. Doesn't that apply to Quinn? Schazjmd   (talk)  15:49, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * someone who emigrated as a child and continued to identify as a citizen of their adopted country, which doesn't necessarily apply to this article. Vpab15 (talk) 15:56, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't understand. Are there sources supporting that Quinn did not identify himself as an American? Schazjmd   (talk)  16:23, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, there are : With a name like Quinn, I wasn’t totally accepted by the Mexican community in those days, and as a Mexican I wasn’t accepted as an American. So as a kid I just decided, well, ‘A plague on both your houses. I’ll just become a world citizen.’ So that’s what I did. Acting is my nationality. Vpab15 (talk) 16:40, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't think his feelings about not being accepted in either community negate the MOS guidance for the first sentence. Schazjmd   (talk)  22:19, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

History
After entering Meiji Era, the former shōgun owned lands became Iwahana Prefecture and the former Maebashi Domain lands became Maebashi Prefecture. After the Abolition of the han system in 1871, the entire area became Gunma Prefecture, but due to the changes to the prefecture, the area became Kumagaya Prefecture in 1873 and to Gunma Prefecture in 1876.

Due to the land reforms of 1878, the district was split into two with the Mount Akagi is being the borderline, the northern foothills of Mount Akagi became Kitaseta District while the southern foothills became Minamiseta District. Since the area of Kitaseta District was too small, the district merged into Tone District in 1896. At the same time, Minamiseta District merged with Higashigunma District to recreate Seta District.

Kannur district

Kannur is one of the 14 districts along the west coast in the state of Kerala, India. The city of Kannur is the district headquarters and gives the district its name. The old name, Cannanore, is the anglicized form of the Malayalam name "Kannur". Kannur district is bounded by Kasaragod District to the north, Kozhikode district to the south, Mahé district to the southwest and Wayanad District to the southeast. To the east, the district is bounded by the Western Ghats, which forms the border with the state of Karnataka (Kodagu district). The Arabian Sea lies to the west. Paithalmala is the highest point in Kannur District (1,372m). Enclosed within the southern part of the district is the Mahé district of the Union Territory of Puducherry. The district was established in 1957.

Kannur Municipal Corporation is the sixth-largest urban local body in the state and Kannur Cantonment is the only Cantonment Board in Kerala. Indian Naval Academy at Ezhimala is the Asia's largest, and the world's third-largest, naval academy. Muzhappilangad beach is the longest Drive-In Beach in Asia and is featured among the top 6 best beaches for driving in the world in BBC article for Autos. Kannur district is home to some forts which include St. Angelo Fort, and Tellicherry Fort. Thalassery town in the district is known for the Thalassery pepper.

Kannur is the sixth-most urbanised district in Kerala, with more than 50% of its residents living in urban areas. Kannur has an urban population of 1,640,986, which is the second largest in Kerala after Ernakulam district. It was part of the Malabar District under the Madras province during the British Raj.

Formation
Following the formation of the state of Kerala in 1956, the erstwhile Malabar District was divided into three: Kannur District, Kozhikode district, and Palakkad district. On 1 November 1980, the North Wayanad Taluk of Kannur district was separated to form Wayanad district. Again in 1984, Kasaragod and Hosdurg Taluks were separated to form Kasargod district.

Pre-history and Ancient Era
The earliest evidence of human habitation in the district are rock-cut caves and megalithic burial sites of the Neolithic age. The Taliparamba-Kannur-Thalassery area abounds in rock-cut caves, dolmens, burial stone circles and menhirs, all of megalith. Kannur was the seat of powerful kingdom based at Ezhimala in the Sangam period (1st–5th century CE). The ancient port of Naura, which is mentioned in the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea as a port somewhere north of Muziris is identified with Kannur.

The kingdom of Ezhimala had jurisdiction over two Nadus - The coastal Poozhinadu and the hilly eastern Karkanadu. According to the works of Sangam literature, Poozhinadu consisted much of the coastal belt between Mangalore and Kozhikode. Karkanadu consisted of Wayanad-Gudalur hilly region with parts of Kodagu (Coorg). It is said that Nannan, the most renowned ruler of Ezhimala dynasty, took refuge at Wayanad hills in the 5th century CE when he was lost to Cheras, just before his execution in a battle, according to the Sangam works.

Early Middle Ages
Ezhimala kingdom was succeeded by Mushika dynasty in the early medieval period, most possibly due to the migration of Tuluva Brahmins from Tulu Nadu. The Mushika-vamsha Mahakavya, written by Athula in the 11th century, throws light on the recorded past of the Mushika Royal Family up until that point. The Indian anthropologist Ayinapalli Aiyappan states that a powerful and warlike clan of the Bunt community of Tulu Nadu was called Kola Bari and the Kolathiri Raja of Kolathunadu was a descendant of this clan. The Kolathunadu (Kannur) Kingdom at the peak of its power, reportedly extended from Netravati River (Mangalore) in the north to Korapuzha (Kozhikode) in the south with Arabian Sea on the west and Kodagu hills on the eastern boundary, also including the isolated islands of Lakshadweep in the Arabian Sea.

An Old Malayalam inscription (Ramanthali inscriptions), dated to 1075 CE, mentioning king Kunda Alupa, the ruler of Alupa dynasty of Mangalore, can be found at Ezhimala (the former headquarters of Mushika dynasty) near Cannanore, Kerala. The Arabic inscription on a copper slab within the Madayi Mosque in Kannur records its foundation year as 1124 CE. In his book on travels (Il Milione), Marco Polo recounts his visit to the area in the mid 1290s. Other visitors included Faxian, the Buddhist pilgrim and Ibn Batuta, writer and historian of Tangiers.

Late Middle Ages
Until the 16th century CE, the Kasargod town was known by the name Kanhirakode (may be by the meaning, 'The land of Kanhira Trees') in Malayalam. The Kumbla dynasty, who swayed over the land of southern Tulu Nadu wedged between Chandragiri River and Netravati River (including present-day Taluks of Manjeshwar and Kasaragod) from Maipady Palace at Kumbla, had also been vassals to the Kolathunadu, before the Carnatic conquests of Vijayanagara Empire. The Kumbla dynasty had a mixed lineage of Malayali Nairs and Tuluva Brahmins. They also claimed their origin from Cheraman Perumals of Kerala. Francis Buchanan-Hamilton states that the customs of Kumbla dynasty were similar to those of the contemporary Malayali kings, though Kumbla was considered as the southernmost region of Tulu Nadu. Just like other contemporary kings of Kerala in the medieval period, The powerful Kolathu Raja also came under the influence of Zamorin later. The Kolathunadu in the late medieval period emerged into independent 10 principalities i.e., Kadathanadu (Vadakara), Randathara or Poyanad (Dharmadom), Kottayam (Thalassery), Nileshwaram, Iruvazhinadu (Panoor, Kurumbranad etc., under separate royal chieftains due to the outcome of internal dissensions. The Nileshwaram dynasty on the northernmost part of Kolathiri dominion, were relatives to both Kolathunadu as well as the Zamorin of Calicut, in the early medieval period.

Colonial era
Kannur was an important trading center in the 12th century with active business connections with Persia and Arabia. The port at Kozhikode held the superior economic and political position in medieval Kerala coast, while Kannur, Kollam, and Kochi, were commercially important secondary ports, where the traders from various parts of the world would gather. Kannur served as the British military headquarters on India's west coast until 1887. In conjunction with her sister city, Tellicherry, it was the third-largest city on the western coast of British India in the 18th century after Bombay and Karachi. The Arakkal kingdom had right over the city of Kannur and Laccadive Islands in the late medieval period.

The Portuguese arrived at Kappad Kozhikode in 1498 during the Age of Discovery, thus opening a direct sea route from Europe to India. The St. Angelo Fort at Kannur was built in 1505 by Dom Francisco de Almeida, the first Portuguese Viceroy of India. The Dutch captured the fort from the Portuguese in 1663. They modernized the fort and built the bastions Hollandia, Zeelandia, and Frieslandia that are the major features of the present structure. The original Portuguese fort was pulled down later. A painting of this fort and the fishing ferry behind it can be seen in the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam. The Dutch sold the fort to the king Ali Raja of Arakkal in 1772. The British conquered it in 1790 and used it as one of their major military stations on the Malabar Coast.

During the 17th century, Kannur was the capital city of the only Muslim polity in the Far-South of India – Arakkal – who also ruled the Laccadive Islands in addition to the city of Kannur. Arakkal Kingdom and Chirakkal kingdom were two vassal kingdoms based in the city of Kannur. The island of Dharmadom near Kannur, along with Thalassery, was ceded to the East India Company as early as 1734, which were claimed by all of the Kolattu Rajas, Kottayam Rajas, Mannanar and  Arakkal Bibi in the late medieval period, where the British initiated a factory and English settlement following the cession. In 1761, the British captured Mahé, and the settlement was handed over to the ruler of Kadathanadu. The British restored Mahé to the French as a part of the 1763 Treaty of Paris. In 1779, the Anglo-French war broke out, resulting in the French loss of Mahé. In 1783, the British agreed to restore to the French their settlements in India, and Mahé was handed over to the French in 1785.

During the British Raj, Kannur was part of the Madras province in the Malabar District. Initially the British had to suffer local resistance against their rule under the leadership of Kerala Varma Pazhassi Raja, who had popular support in Thalassery-Wayanad region. The municipalities of Kannur and Thalassery were formed on 1 November 1866 according to the Madras Act 10 of 1865 (Amendment of the Improvements in Towns act 1850)   of the British Indian Empire, along with the municipalities of Kozhikode, Palakkad, and Fort Kochi, making them the first modern municipalities in the modern state of Kerala.

Government and politics
Kannur district consists of two revenue subdivisions - Taliparamba and Thalassery. For sake of rural administration, 71 Gram Panchayats are combined in 11 Blocks, which together form the Kannur District Panchayat. For the sake of urban administration, Kannur Municipal Corporation and 9 municipal towns are there.

For the representation of Kannur in Kerala Legislative Assembly, there are 11 assembly constituencies. These are included in three parliamentary constituencies, i.e., Kasaragod, Kannur, and Vatakara. The district is further divided into 132 villages which together form 5 subdistricts.

Talk:Takuya Kimura

untag?
Well clearly the page lacked formality and it looked more like a timeline of his life. I tried to make it formal as much as possible. Is it okay to take the tag off now? And the discussions should be about the article itself, not the celebrity. mirageinred 20:52, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Great, it's a lot better; however, certain sections could still use a lot of work. I will remove the tag on the whole article and tag those sections appropriately.  --C S (Talk) 10:33, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

 * alright mirageinred 06:00, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Could you tell me specifically which sections need work? mirageinred 06:15, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Sorry, I should have done a better job of tagging; I've added some more specific tags which should help clear things up. I believe the section "Rise to fame" is the most problematic, but other parts have some problems (not as serious IMHO).

 * One general thing that can be fixed is to do better sourcing, e.g. all these statistics such as "viewership was such-and-such percentage". But my main issue with "rise to fame" is the tabloid style and unencyclopedic tone.  "Of course, his fans were shocked and angered".  That's just one example, but if you look, I'm sure you will see several others.  I call this kind of thing "tabloid" because it's the kind of gossip one might read in a supermarket tabloid.  The reason I don't just remove this, however, is that there may be something to be kept here.  Perhaps there was some public outcry, something that could be suitably referenced and included, e.g. articles in fanzines, commentaries on TV, etc.  But otherwise, it just appears to me to be unverifiable opinion.  Also, the tone is too conversational.  The article as a whole suffered greatly from that, and now it's much better, thanks to you, but that section still has a problem with the tone at a few places.  --C S (Talk) 03:09, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I don't know what's with this article. The structure of the "Rise to fame" section just makes it so hard to fix it for some reason. mirageinred 23:13, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for all your work; it has improved the page tremendously. There are still spots where citations are really needed and I've tagged some of those. But generally, sourcing (and removal of unsubstantiated remarks) has been good enough that I don't think there really is a need to put a source tag on the entire article. So I removed it. The tone issue has been minimized also. --C S (Talk) 03:30, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Beautiful Life and Beautiful life
You would think that those two pages would be identical, but they are not. The first one is about the TV series and Beautiful life is a page about an Australian singer's album. Which one should be moved under a different name? mirageinred 04:14, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

 * In this case, it's improper style to have the second word uncapitalized, so whoever created that page should have used "Beautiful Life". So it seems here that we have two things with the same title; in that case the proper thing to do is create a disambiguation page for "Beautiful Life" and then the TV series should be "Beautiful Life (TV series)" and the album should be "Beautiful Life (album)".  The only reason one article would still stay under "Beautiful Life" is if it was undeniably the primary topic for that phrase, which I wouldn't say is true here.  --C S (Talk) 15:35, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I see. I couldn't make a disambiguation page, but I renamed both pages. mirageinred 05:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I created the disambig page. Take a look to see how it is done.--C S (Talk) 06:00, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Thank you very much mirageinred 19:06, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I've requested this page be moved back to Takuya Kimura as primary topic disambiguation applies. The move of the Kimura article to Takuya Kimura (singer) should not have been done without discussion. It seems that someone wanting to disambig between the baseball player and the actor/singer did not understand the disambiguation policy. --C S (Talk) 11:21, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree with C S. The singer is significantly more notable than the baseball player, and so this article must be the primary topic.--Endroit 20:18, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I also agree the page shouldn't have been moved. We should keep the disambig page, though, at Takuya Kimura (disambiguation). ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihon joe 20:52, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Kimuratakuya.jpg
Image:Kimuratakuya.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
