I changed the header from "...was an American lyric writer..." to "...was an US-american...". This was changed back by User:Threeafterthree with the reason "(why US-American?? Just curious, per Wiki style on biographies, just list nationality in header, take to talk page if you feel different, thanks!!)". Not that I care about the change, I just wonder how it should be done correctly? I mean America is no country / nationality but the name of two contintents. It's like writing "Tony Blair, European prime minister" or "Pelé, American soccer player". Even if we in Europe and the USA mostly think of the USA if we talk about Amerika, should it be mentioned more clearly in Wikipedia. I made some Latin Americans upset when I talked about America, meaning the USA. I just wan't to know how it's done as I wrote US-american in several articles today.

It is said the Dietz papers are the largest single collection the Library has. You'd expect them to reveal his true birthdate. The biography at [1] says he was born 6 September, 1896, while most other sources say 8 September. Could this just be a typo, or do they know something the rest of the world doesn't? -- JackofOz ( talk) 02:37, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
