Imagine if her name was Vera Long Wang. -- Mrwojo 14:42, 17 Dec 2003 (UTC)
While technically correct, I don't understand the need to identify the American-born Ms. Wang as "a Chinese-American" while Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein are simply identified as "American". For the sake of uniformity, we should identify Mr. Klein as "Jewish-Hungarian-American fashion designer" or simply refer to Ms. Wang as "American".-- Brendanmccabe ( talk) 14:04, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Okay, so it's settled. She's American. Why the Chinese pronunciation? Brendanmccabe ( talk) 23:37, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
