A fact from Katie Leung appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the
Did you know column on 17 November 2022 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
|
Some editors are changing Leung to being described as a British actress instead of Scottish. There are a few reasons Scottish is best. First, a search through news items inevitably describes Leung as "Scottish Actress". I've yet to see here described as "British". Second, "Scottish" implies "British", which is not the case of the reverse. The lead should be as succinct and accurate as possible. BashBrannigan ( talk) 02:32, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
She is a citizen of Scotland but she is not Ethnic Scottish. I think this is where the confusion lies at, and really, if you are born in China you may be "chinese" but you are not automatically Han-Chinese. British is better to describe her as its more neutral. 107.222.205.242 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:48, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Can we perhaps add some? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.139.199.17 ( talk) 19:28, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
So we have an edit-warring IP that is attempting to change the nationality of this actress in the article. Let me simply quote what
Τασουλα said in the topic above: "It was already decided per consensus and UK nationals guidelines that Scottish was fine, and also that her Chinese Ancestry has no part to play as well." (emphasis mine)
IOW, Ethnicity ≠ Nationality. Her ethnicity is already covered in the 'Early life' section. Regardless her nationality is Scottish – quoting Τασουλα from above again: "And oh, she self-identifies as Scottish which is sourced in the article too..."
Therefore, this "Chinese-Scottish" business needs to be kept out of the lede and infobox. --

Leung's voice was used in the video games Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.This uncited, undated statement, which is also its own paragraph, is rather jarring when reading through.
However, after attending a drama course at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, she was inspired.This sentence feels fragmentary, as though it was cut off midway.
an undocumented Chinese immigrant who sells pirate DVDs and stolen phones on the streets of Brixton in the hope of making a life for herself in the UK, but who first must pay her debts to the Snakeheads who smuggled her into Britain.Almost no paraphrasing from original source.
Leung next appeared in an episode of the BBC crime drama series Father Brown.This statement is unsourced.
In June 2021, Leung narrated the short audio story Off Course for Bibliophone. The story was the winner of a charity writing competition which raised money for the Scottish Refugee Council.Citation needed.
She speaks fluent Cantonese and some Mandarin.Mandarin is not mentioned in the article this sentence cites.
Mostly good, but there are some issues that definitely must be addressed. I'm putting it on hold. I will always be available if needed. An anonymous username, not my real name ( talk) 01:29, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
Hello @ Moloch Dhalgren: I can't seem to verify your claim for what citation 12 verifies. There is verification that a hate website was made against her but it doesn't say that it was from jealousy due to the romance between cho and harry. Could your provide a way to verify that?

Scottish is an ethnicity (also as per the wiki on Scottish people btw).
She is a British actress. 23.186.80.194 ( talk) 22:31, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
I think this should be put in, it's a popular series. It's a shame they weren't published when she was the right age for Hazel 2A00:23EE:1988:688C:78FE:C79:2A22:C787 ( talk) 17:12, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
