Adding Jewish to category

The indication of Jewish, as we also have Israeli Arab artist. similar to noting gender in art history it is acceptable to write what style as Jewish is considered a stream of art history not a religion here, similar to this is the gender if an artist is a women and that is an important part of the art they create them this fact is regarded as a movement or stream of art.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean about "Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design was deleted in the description". I did remove a wikilink of Bezalel in the "Career" section. Generally you should only have a one wikilink in the article, not including the infobox. There is a wikilink of Bezalel in the "Teaching" section above "Education". So, I removed the wikilink in the "Education" section. I'm assuming you mean the removal of Jewish from "Nationality" in the infobox. Religion, race and sexual orientation in infoboxes are a big controversy on Wikipedia. The official policy is to include religion if it is important to what makes them notable. Some obvious ones would include articles on Rabbis, those killed at the Munich Olympics or those performing in Yiddish theater in the U.S. Personally I'd leave it out as you are doing Israeli artists and not Jewish-Israeli artists. Also, Israeli is the nationality. There is not a nationality that is Jewish-Israeli. With that being said, "Jewish" or "Arab" goes beyond religion and into what culture one identifies with. Also, as you said above, it is a stream of art history. The "Movement" in the infobox, there is now "Israeli Art". Having "Jewish Art" is valid. Is there a Jewish-Israeli movement that you can add there? If not, maybe mention Jewish in the article. I don't know exactly what to do. You know better than I, so use your best judgement.

Hello, it is a complicated subject. I have just checked e.g. at Wikipedia in German, where Albert Einstein, Sigmund Freud and Martin Buber are not in a "Jews" category. --Ziko (talk) 19:47, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

I have been looking through wikipedia finding similar categories, for example: List of Jewish American visual artists. On the page for Marc Chagall there are many categories mentioning his Jewish ness, which was indeed a great influence on his art: Jewish artists, Jewish painters, Belarusian Jews, Russian Jews, French Jews, Soviet Jews, Jewish School of Paris, etc. Drkup(IMJ) (talk) 20:49, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
