Uncut?

Is it worth mentioning in the article that even though he is Jewish (or at least of Israeli decent) he is uncircumsized? --98.232.188.173 (talk) 06:10, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Lucas (director) → ? – He produced two documentaries, making him a filmmaker. He is also a porn star and a director. I'm thinking "(filmmaker)" may fit this person's role, but we can alternatively use "(entertainer)" if that defines him well. "(actor)" or "(pornographic actor)" neglects the fact that he is also a director; "(director)" obscures the fact that he performs onscreen. George Ho (talk) 19:54, 18 January 2016 (UTC) Relisted.

@George Ho: Which dab do you prefer? Doesn't seem anyone else cares. Jenks24 (talk) 08:25, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm thinking "filmmaker", but he's also a porn star. Maybe "entertainer"? --George Ho (talk) 19:52, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The problem of disambiguation by occupation is that sometimes there is no simple occupation to choose. In these cases, prefer disambiguating by birth year. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:48, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ie. Michael Lucas (born 1972), which I believe is the default for when no occupation or leading notability association applies. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:33, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose any move. I was remaining neutral, but moving this to Michael Lucas (x, born 1972), as suggested above, is non-sense. The fact no one has supported or opposed the proposal in almost a month demostrates this is not broken, and therefore it shouldn't be fixed. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 22:45, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose primarily because of the reasons provided by Tbhotch. The current title is stable and concise. Other suggested dabs "filmmaker, actor" would introduce similar problems that "director" has, and the birth year doesn't add much value either. Tiggerjay (talk) 16:31, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
