Quite a few edits have added to the lead that he is (some combo) of Filipino-American, American / Filipino, etc. This has also been added to his nationality in the infobox. As far as the lead, ethnicity is typically not mentioned there per MOS:BLPLEAD: "Ethnicity or sexuality should not generally be emphasized in the opening unless it is relevant to the subject's notability." Short of playing on the Philippines national team, I don't think it belongs in the lead for him. As far as nationality, it's unsourced so far that he is a citizen of the Philippines, so it should not be mentioned in the infobox per WP:BLP.— Bagumba ( talk) 23:43, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
FYI Clarkson is ineligible to play for the Philippine National Team due to FIBA rules. [1] - -- Wambeter ( talk) 02:25, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
Lithuanian sources say different, reportedly Philippines coach Tab Baldwin has added Jordan Clarkson on the candidate roster and also that Clarkson holds Filipino citizenship. He's currently in Asia figuring out if he can play for the Philippines as a non-naturalized player. [2] - -- 8obis ( talk) 10:52, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

please change Jordan Clarkson's "Nationality" from "American-Filipino" to "Filipino-American" because he had already secured a Philippine passport before 16 years old per FIBA rules.

The lead already has "Filipino-American", while the infobox lists "American / Filipino". It's not clear what you want changed.— Bagumba ( talk) 00:37, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
