It’s because, I tried to add the national identity “Lebanese” to the page about Keanu Reeves, because we know he was from the capital city of the former French mandate, officialy, the Republic of Lebanon in the Midde East, called Beirut,

Pick a better cover picture

The current one, I don't care how relevant or new it is, is horrific. He has many better pictures from the last 5 years and any of them should be used over the current one. Bixerino (talk) 19:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Look bub, it's composed well, shows his face, etc etc. No reason to remove it other than your inability to comprehend that people don't continue to look like they're 40 when they're pushing 60. Hell, he turns 60 on the 2nd!
In the interest of directing you elsewhere, look at Christopher Lee. Check out his infobox image. If Keanu's caused you discomfort, that one will be apt to cause a short-circut!
If it makes you feel better, someone might get some pics of Keanu at the premiere of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 later this year. BarntToust (talk) 12:50, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
While I agree with most of your points, I will say that Christopher Lee's picture at least has him smiling. With that said, I understand why the pic is what it is. Bixerino (talk) 13:29, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

In his Infobox musical artist info, his years active info should be removed because there is already a years active info in the Infobox person section. Having two is completely unnecessary and just by having just one covers both infos. 103.231.73.87 (talk) 02:05, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: There are different start dates for each of those ranges.That's likely because the first range relates to his acting and writing career while the second range is specifically for his musical career. —Sirdog (talk) 18:53, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

Chinese ancestry?

I’ve been looking into his paternal ancestry especially his paternal grandmother Momilani Sarah Victor . She doesn’t have any recorded Chinese ancestor and her 1930 and 1940 census don’t mention her being Asian or Chinese just part Hawaiian. KAVEBEAR (talk) 00:47, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

Never mind, her paternal grandfather was Chinese-Hawaiian. Family generated below. Should not be included in the article though because it is trivial. KAVEBEAR (talk) 01:41, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
