Slovak-born
[edit]I cut out "Slovak-born". He was born in a part of the Hungarian kingdom which is now Slovakia. No source says that he belonged to the Slovakian ethnicity. The sources say he was Hungarian. Of course this does not definitely means that he belonged to the Hungarian ethnicity. He was Jewish, and while his internationally known name, Max Weiss refers to German-language background, the "Miksa" given name signals that he or perhaps already his parents were more or less assimilated Hungarians. I see no reason to leave the Slovakian chessplayers category in the article, but I don't remove it for the time being, waiting for someone to come out with a convincing argument which supports it.--Korovioff 15:44, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
