Jewish?

Isn't he jewish? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.200.37.58 (talk) 04:24, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

I have removed information about Karp being Jewish from the article because the first source cited is not reliable and the second source cited refers to a different David Karp. I have not been able to find any reliable sources that indicates he is Jewish and this information should not be added to the article unless one is found. - Kollision (talk) 02:46, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
Hello and thanks for writing me regarding this. I noticed you removed my edits for the second time about Karp's religion, and appreciate your effort in trying to make sure the information on wikipedia is valid and correct. I didn't know the first link mentioned a different David Karp but you're probably right, and the second source does specifically say he's Jewish, type his name in the search bar if you will, and yes I agree that it's not a good enough source. However, I wouldn't have made these comments about him being Jewish had I not known it: I personally remember reading on either the new york times or forbes magazine a statement made by him in an interview in which he said he's Jewish (not an observant though), but was unable to find this article online. Since no wiki-standard-reliable-source can be found/exists to our knowledge as of now, I'll respect what you said and will wait until one comes out to support it. After all, this issue is a little foolish to care so much about..Best, Shalom11111 (talk) 13:36, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
