Citizenship
This has been broached occasionally in the past, but never really dealt with head-on: it doesn't make much sense for Thiel to be identified as German-American. The article doesn't even really mention Germany other than as his place of birth, and there are sources (e.g. [1]) stating that he's not a German citizen. Tserton (talk) 15:28, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Thiel contributed $250,000 to Donald Trump's 2020 presidential campaign.[1] Mollydooker (talk) 20:33, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

The last sentence of paragraph 1 at Peter Thiel#Early life and education is grammatically incorrect. Please amend the sentence to say Thiel eventually became a U.S. citizen, losing his German citizenship in the process.

Peter Thiell is a German citizen - no idea why this isn't mentioned. You can verify this on the other translations of this page, or googling it online. As a result of this, and his personal connection to the country, I think German-American entrepreneur would be most suitable. Maxmibsb (talk) 00:59, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
