Nationality

GoodSimon - Good day. You might not read the Wikipedia guideline which I stated in the edit summary - kindly read - Born in France - WP:ETHNICITY in lead section - see https://boxrec.com/en/kb-pro/852881 ; https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/238273-nordine-mahieddine; https://www.glorykickboxing.com/news/wamba-gets-revenge-in-mahieddine-rematch:16d83fef-b393-4d11-8d46-488ba808e6b0.

This is Wikipedia, and so Wikipedia's guidelines are what we adhere of and regardless which country(s) a subject wants to represent, in the lead section we not only do not mentioned the subject's ethnicity and his present country and/or when the subject was notable where he was/is the nationality of the country(s) only will be placed on the lead section (intro).

Hello. I undid my revision because Glory website stated Nationality (Not ’’Fighting out of’’), therefore it was my mistake. What you mention about ethnicity, it seems it applies to a Biography box, not a Kickboxing reccord. It would only make sense to put up the flag of the country they represent, as they display it on TV before the fight, rather than were they are born.

GoodSimon, I saw your self-revert edit. WP:ETHNICITY applies to all Wikipedia articles and it does not matter where the subject "fighting out of", residency, or want to represent a country(s) - for this is Wikipedia guidelines and not subject to our interpretation. I suggest you to read the guideline again. Cassiopeia talk 01:06, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
