Not Israeli-American

[edit]

By Wikipedia's guidelines, Leigh Bardugo should not be described as Israeli-American.

First, her citizenship doesn't appear in any WP:RELIABLE source. The source provided isn't reliable by Wikipedia's standards (doesn't have a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy), and its use of "Israeli American" was probably copied from Wikipedia.

Second, and more important, "Israeli-" shouldn't appear regardless of whether or not Bardugo has Israeli citizenship. This is not a list of citizenships. Per WP:NATIONALITY, the opening paragraph should usually provide context for that which made the person notable. In most modern-day cases, this will be the country, region, or territory where the person is currently a national or permanent resident. Regardless of whether Bargugo has Israeli citizenship, the context is that she's a resident of the United States and publishes her books in the United States.
