Describing Kons as Jewish in the lede[edit]

Re describing him as Jewish see Manual of Style--biographies.

Ethnicity should generally not be emphasized in the opening unless it is relevant to the subject's notability.

His being Jewish is not relevant to his notability. Boodlesthecat ^Meow? 21:27, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
