The fact that it is still a current nationality and how she is describing herself, not a former nationality is the reason it is included, and again it is even given in the box on the right of the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.167.254.38 ( talk) 17:38, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
If she is a citizen of Ethiopia and Ireland, then her nationality is Ethiopian-Irish and it should be included in the lede. It's then not a question of ethnicity at all. Note the "if", I am not familiar with the facts on this subject and so taking her citizenship as an assumption here for purposes of the question. If she is not a citizen of Ethiopia, then one solution is to describe her as "Ethiopian-born Irish actress" in the lede, if consensus is that her country of birth is significant or relevant enough to include in the lede. postdlf ( talk) 19:38, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Yes don't take their word for, make up your way forward. Did you not read that opinion piece you linked? That let's not force what our view is? Like you said we have to err on the sides caution and that would be to use their own words motor ours in their mouths. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.167.254.128 ( talk) 13:49, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
Her birth country is irrelevant to her notability so shouldn't be listed in the lead. She has done all her notable activities in Ireland so that is the nationality identity that should be listed in intro sentence. Geraldo Perez ( talk) 21:39, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
Per Geraldo Perez, her notability was an actress was developed in Ireland, and per the first comment in this thread, she herself identifies as Ethiopian-Irish. I really feel this should not be a contentious issue; the lead should state that Negga is a "Ethiopian-Irish" actress. CeltBrowne ( talk) 21:30, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
