I've just read your article about Sándor Kányádi. I think you should have written he's Transylvanian instead of Romanian. The reason is that many of those people who live in the area of Transylvania, are Hungarians (not Romanians), both in their language and culture. Kányádi is one of the greatest poets of them and one of the greatest poets of Hungary. Thank you for reading - I decded to write here instead of changing the original article.

There is no such thing as "Transylvanian citizenship", and we're not inventing one. Dahn 22:32, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How about writing "Magyar" poet? He is a Magyar with Romanian citizenship.

You are right, but please mention that though he was born in Romania, his nationality is Hungarian. Credo

His ethnic origin is mentioned in the lead, and this is exceptional (the rule is to mention ethnicity only in the body of text). Per the meaning of the word nationality, Kányádi is Romanian. That is unless he also has Hungarian citizenship, which would need to be sourced (I presume he had Hungarian citizenship in 1940-1944 at least, so this may be worth looking into).
