Why are Roger Penrose, Ilya Metchnikoff, and Adolf von Baeyer on this list?

Myself being ethnically at least 3/4 Jewish, I have always felt skeptical about this kind of arithmetic.

Both von Baeyer and Metchnikoff would be puzzled to see their names mentioned here. Von Baeyer was a son of a German lieutenant general, and hardly cared much about the Jewish roots of his Lutheran mother. Metchnikoff was born into the family of an officer of the Imperial Guard, baptised Russian Orthodox, raised as a normal Russian noble and, just like von Baeyer, had little time for the Jewish origins of his mother.

It is even more surprising to see on this list the name of Sir Roger Penrose. Well, yes, one of his grandmothers was of Jewish origin. Is that sufficient to count him in?

Born as hungarian citizen

Politzer, Friedman, Glück and others were born as hungarian citizens 90.129.194.12 (talk) 18:08, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

As was Elie Wiesel, Herman Albert Fried and others 90.129.194.12 (talk) 18:13, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

Karle: born as hungarian citizen?

If his mother was hungarian then he should be included. His mothers mother was and probably her father too, who had a hungarian family-name: Kun, but uncertain. Anyone who knows? By: László Vazulvonal of Stockholm Vazulvonal of Stockholm (talk) 12:31, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
