José Blanco (Nicaraguan businessman)

Latest comment: 10 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Hello, SPat! You recently approved the article I created on José Blanco, adding the descriptor "Nicaraguan businessman". I understand the need to differentiate between the several José Blancos, but the one you used is incorrect. He may work in Nicaragua presently, but he is Dominican. Could you please change the descriptor to read "Dominican businessman, cigar industry"? Thank you! TobaccoEvents (talk) 14:56, 27 August 2013 (UTC)TobaccoEvents

Hey, thanks for letting me know! I see your point that using the nationality here would be tricky. Does José Blanco (Cigar industrialist) sound better to you? Thanks again! SPat ^talk 17:05, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your quick response! Either "Dominican cigar industrialist" (preferred) or just "Cigar industrialist" would be fine. Thanks again! TobaccoEvents (talk) 01:01, 29 August 2013 (UTC)TobaccoEvents

I'll go with cigar industrialist a) for brevity and b) the whole issue of national identity looks confusing anyway. Cheers! SPat ^talk 01:07, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
