[edit] Comment

What is so importaint about him and his mother being Jewish? TVRJomar 03:29, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

No idea. There seems to be this huge desire to point out that he's Jewish, then I see someone wanting to hammer home that his mother is Jewish. No idea what this is about. --Deathphoenix ʕ 03:56, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

I think mentioning Shoeneweis' Jewish background is interesting, but the current format of presenting it is awkward and borderline offensive. It would be one thing if we were clarifying why he can speak Hebrew but to just mention it out of the blue seems a little odd. Furthermore, there are no citations of any sort to back up the claim that his mother is Jewish. SERSeanCrane 22:25, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

In addition I see that User:Threeafterthree has previously removed the content with the reasoning "reverted back to standard biographical usaged...please see WP:MOSBIO, thanks". I agree with this reasoning, but only in favor of moving his ethnicity to the opening paragraph where it belongs. Also, I am removing the trivia point until it can be backed up with a citation. SERSeanCrane 22:25, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree with the deletion of the trivia point, under the circumstances. --Epeefleche 22:36, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Why does it say Canada instead of Toronto? It is a little confusing, to say his time spent in Canada, as you would not say his time spent in America, or even Ohio, if he played for the Reds —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.67.170.51 (talk) 00:52, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
