This entire article has the wrong heading. He is Turkish. Anyone who knows even a small amount of Turkish knows that "bey" is used after a (given) name in a similar way to "mister" is used before a (family) name in English. The fact that so many others use the spelling from a stupid English slang does not mean that Wikipedia, which claims to want to get things right, should do so. The slang "bae" doesn't even make any sense in the context. |

@Resource sharing: In your edit summary, you write You do not have the right to make changes without a valid reason.
Well, I have given a valid reason in my edit summaries, but I can repeat it here.
First of all, I do not contest that Salt Bae is of Kurdish ancestry. On the contrary, I have several times reverted attempts to remove that information from the section "Personal life". However, whether this shall be mentioned in the lead section (the introduction of the article) is quite another matter.
In my edit summaries, I have repeatedly referred to WP:ETHNICITY, which is part of the Wikipedia guideline WP:Manual of Style/Biography. You have also been adviced in your talk page about reading this guideline, but since you obviously have not read it or perhaps not understood it, I will quote it here: Ethnicity, religion, or sexuality should generally not be in the lead unless it is relevant to the subject's notability.
I will try to explain the reason for this rule. The lead section is what most people will read, so it should present the most important information about the topic of the article. When the topic is a person, like here, the lede should tell who the person is and why the person is notable enough to have an article in an encyclopedia. The opening paragraph should usually provide context for the activities that made the person notable.
Salt Bae is notable for being a butcher/chef/restaurateur. His ethnicity (or religion or sexuality or whatever) is not notable, so it has nothing to do in the lead.
Wikipedia is a community project, where editors co-operate in order to improve the encyclopedic value of articles. When there is a disagreement about what to write or how to write it, the proper way to solve it is to use the talk page of the article to discuss in order to reach a consensus, see WP:CONSENSUS. After you erroneously accused me of vandalism, the administrator EdJohnston who declined your report, asked you in your user talk page to make your case here in the article talk page. Instead, you just reinserted your preferred version. That is called edit war, see WP:EDITWAR, and is one of the most common reasons for editors being blocked from editing.
I will give you the chance to self revert before joining this discussion. I also strongly advice you to make yourself acquainted with the Wikipedia rules I have linked to above. --T*U (talk) 06:46, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
To add to article
Basic information to add to this article: where does his nickname "Bae" come from, what does it mean, and who gave it to him? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 05:48, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
Semi-protected edit request on 8 April 2021
I would recommend the removal of the accusation that Rubio "doxxed" the miami restaurant, seeing as how the contact information for the restaurant is publicly available information, and thus does NOT constitute doxxing. 69.126.204.195 (talk) 04:30, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

Should be Salt Bey
This entire article has the wrong heading. He is Turkish. Anyone who knows even a small amount of Turkish knows that "bey" is used after a (given) name in a similar way to "mister" is used before a (family) name in English. The fact that so many others use the spelling from a stupid English slang does not mean that Wikipedia, which claims to want to get things right, should do so. The slang "bae" doesn't even make any sense in the context.
