Robert Aumann was born in Frankfurt, Germany. Rainer Weiss was born in Berlin, Germany. If a country is merely mentioned as the place of birth, an asterisk (*) is used in the respective listing to indicate this.[5]

If these 2 Nobel Prize winners were born in Germany, why doesn't Germany have them on its Wikipedia list? Please reply to me with details as to why they are not included with the List (Germany 111 Winners) that prevent them from joining the List.

If a country is merely mentioned as the place of birth, an asterisk (*) is used in the respective listing to indicate this.[5] (5): https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/literature/2007/summary/ I used the SAME source of the example [5], proving that the Theory written in quotes above, deserves to be put into Practice.

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. This isn't actually an edit request, as much as an angry question. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:08, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I posted the changes and submitted the trusted sources on October 16th

John Bannister Goodenough (Chemistry 2019) was born in Germany, in the city of Jena: https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemistry/2019/goodenough/facts/ Robert Aumann (Economy 2005) was born in Germany, in the city of Frankfurt: https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/economic-sciences/2005/aumann/facts/ John Polanyi (Chemistry 1986) was born in Germany, in the city of Berlin: https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemistry/1986/polanyi/facts/

As user ScottishFinnishRadish said above, add these three German-born Nobel Prize winners to the list of Germany winners. The source is the official Nobel Prize website, the link is next to each name. 177.54.76.237 (talk) 05:27, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. The existing consensus seems to be to list these by nationality at the time of the award. Changing this would clearly be a potentially controversial move and would require consensus.

Hello, good morning. How are you? Please, how do I ask for this consensus? I didn't quite understand how I formalize this request? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.54.76.237 (talk) 06:04, 25 October 2021 (UTC) [reply]

There is a reason for this article[edit]

Perhaps some see nationalistic pride in this, for example, when they compare the United States with India. There is also a graphic based on laureates' religion (Wiki article: Relationship between religion and science), but a list based on skin color is not in fashion anymore. 2001:2003:F641:8500:7C30:5A57:34AC:68DD (talk) 11:03, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The American Nobel awards per capita rate seems mediocre in a comparison with many European countries... Pharaph (talk) 15:09, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change Taiwan to Taiwan(Republic of China) Due to the complicated circumstances of ROC history[edit]

I am now changing The name "Taiwan" to "Taiwan (Republic of China)" and leave the comments here for further discussion. Many names mentioned in the count for Taiwan are generally considered Chinese because they were born before 1949 during the Republic of China's rule on the mainland. However, they are counted as Taiwanese due to the current abbreviation of Taiwan as the Republic of China. In other Wikipedia articles, it seems that when an element of Taiwan is considered more connected to the Republic of China era than the Republic of China rule on the Taiwan island era, it is generally mentioned using the name "Republic of China." For example, the flag of Taiwan is mentioned as the flag of the Republic of China. As a result, for consistency with such a trend, I will notify Taiwan as an abbreviation of the Republic of China rather than just "Taiwan," including the Chinese names mentioned in this list.--The193thdoctor (talk) 06:04, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

roc vs prc[edit]

if this is a list of countries of birth, #4-9 for "china (prc)" was listed by someone with little concern for historical accuracy or without any cultural understanding. it is a factual impossibility that any of #1 & 4-9 was born in the prc; the "people's republic of china" didn't exist until 1949. they were all born in a country that was then-known as the "republic of china," whose government moved to what is now known as "taiwan." the fact that the prc doesn't recognize the roc as an independent country seems irrelevant to whatever the arbitrary purpose of this article is. if this article is a list of "countries" as they are colloquially known, there seems to be no point in this articles existence. just as einstein wasn't born in "germany," likewise the aforementioned laureates were not born in the "prc."

samuel ting was born in michigan; that's in the usa. there is no mention of "prc" mentioned in mr. ting's bio on the nobel site, only "china." it completely eludes me as to why he is listed under prc except the entry editor was unintentionally racist.

Should Mother Teresa be associated to Albania?[edit]

Although she wasn't an Albanian citizen until 1991 (the Nobel Prize having been awarded to her in 1979)? 2A01:CB04:BC:3200:4977:38D9:A2A2:A9FC (talk) 12:30, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Germany[edit]

Why do Emmanuelle Charpentier, Svante Pääbo and Ferenc Krausz fall under the "Germany" category? Do any of them have German citizenship? Is this ranking based on nationality/place of birth as it should be or does it include where some of the work has been done? (in the case of Emmanuelle Charpentier the work that owned her the Nobel Prize was carried out outside of Germany and she only moved there in 2015). If so shouldn't they only be under France, Sweden and Hungary+Austria, respectively? 84.185.230.36 (talk) 20:12, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
