Birth date[edit]

There should be a reference listing her birth date to justify listing a particular date in the article. The references previously included don't do that. Gerardw (talk) 10:36, 2 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I've just removed a birth date that wasn't backed up by the cited source. Instead, I've replaced it with {{Birth based on age as of date}}, since her age (but not DOB) is given in one of the references. —C.Fred (talk) 05:26, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nationality[edit]

Does the subject of this article a citizen of the United States? Was she born in the United States, or was either of her parents a United States citizen? If not, wouldn't Eurasian be a more appropriate descriptor of her ethnicity rather than American? I ask this due to an IP edit removing the subject of this article from List of Filipino Americans. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 08:08, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Her mother is Filipina-American, full name: Mary Jane Guck (although better known by her screen name Jacklyn Jose). Her father, Raphael John Gil Eigenmann (better known as Mark Gil), is Filipino-American-Swiss (his father was of half-Swiss descent, his mother half-American? That's from what I can gather at least. But either of them were of American descent). Jus sanguinis in the U.S. is not transmissible to the 3rd generation unless 5 years residence by one of his/her American parents is established before birth IIRC, and there are additional stipulations for children born out of wedlock. So she is most probably not an American Citizen, but either/both of her parents are definitely of American descent.--ObsidinSoul 15:09, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Failing a reliable source reference of her holding American nationality and/or citizenship, I propose that the article be editted to state that she is Eurasian, as there isn't an "American" ethnicity, even if that in itself is disputed. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 05:09, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
How about simply 'Filipina' and then mentioning American and Swiss descent in the body of the article? Eurasian is also a bit too vague (since by not recognizing 'American' as an ethnicity all mixed Asian-Caucasian people in the US/Aus/Canada/NZ/etc. would technically be Eurasian as well even if their ancestors haven't been in Europe for centuries)--ObsidinSoul 05:52, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That would be best, as it keeps also with WP:MOSBIO specifically WP:OPENPARAGRAPH. Off course, if a reliable source can be found to state American nationality than the article will be edited accordingly.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 06:08, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
