Why isn't there an image of the individual?

Add the category: Category:Roman Catholics
- First request (catholic lang.):
Not done as the claim she is not a practicing catholic is reliably sourced.
- Second request (twitter link):
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.
- Third request (category):
Done Added Lebanese Roman Catholic category.

- The Twitter link is the source for the first and second request. It is a 2021 update on her religious status and is reliable source directly from Khalifa. Here is the updated request:
- In Personal Life,
- change: In 2015, Khalifa stated that she was no longer a practicing Catholic.
- to:
- She is a Catholic.[1] Squaredtrig (talk) 23:41, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Squaredtrig: Good day: when Khalifa stated that she is "a catholic" that does not necessarily mean that the state meant "she is no longer a practicing catholic" is not true. That said, I did
Partly implement your request by clarifying that she still identifies as a Catholic. I think this is a fair compromise since both statements are true. P,TO 19104 (talk) (contribs) 19:44, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
- @P,TO 19104: The edit is missing the word 'she' before still.
- I'm also requesting to move a sentence from Personal Life to Career#Other work: In May 2023, Khalifa has been invited to speak at the Oxford Union and was featured on the front cover of Huck magazine under the headline "We Are All Mia Khalifa". Squaredtrig (talk) 21:22, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Squaredtrig: I fixed that minor error.
What is your reason for requesting the removal of that sentence? P,TO 19104 (talk) (contribs) 21:27, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
- @P,TO 19104: Not a removal, but to move it to Career. It fits better in that section.
- Squaredtrig (talk) 21:33, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Squaredtrig: I'm sorry, I misread what you wrote. Yeah that's fine.

- @Squaredtrig: I'm sorry, I misread what you wrote. Yeah that's fine.
- @Squaredtrig: I fixed that minor error.
- I undid this change. One could read "I'm catholic you twat" as a sarcastic retort to the common misconception that all Arabs are Muslims, especially since it was a direct reply to a tweet accusing Khalifa of "hat[ing] Christians". Saying Khalifa "identifies as a Catholic" goes beyond the intended meaning of the source IMO, and is too much of an exceptional claim to base on a single primary source. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 00:19, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- "@Sangdeboeuf: Can "Khalifa stated that she was no longer a practicing Catholic" be changed to "Khalifa stated that she is a non-practicing Catholic"? It's closest to her statement in the BBC article. Squaredtrig (talk) 06:03, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Suggestion to add real name
[edit]In the introduction and early life sections of the article, I suggest adding Mia Khalifa's real name, "Sarah Joe (BLP violation removed)." Mia herself has stated in an interview that she is not "Mia" but rather "Sarah Joe," which is also listed in her Instagram bio. Given that this information is publicly shared by Mia Khalifa, it seems appropriate to include her real name in the article.
Proposed changes:
- Introduction: Change "Mia Khalifa (/miːə kəˈliːfə/; Arabic: ميا خليفة Miyа̄ Ḵalīfah [mijaː χaliːfa(h)]; born 1993[1])" to "Mia Khalifa (/miːə kəˈliːfə/; Arabic: ميا خليفة Miyа̄ Ḵalīfah [mijaː χaliːfa(h)]; born Sarah Joe (BLP violation removed) in 1993[1])."
- Early life: Add a note that "Khalifa was born as Sarah Joe (BLP violation removed) in Beirut, Lebanon[1]..."
Sources:
- Instagram Bio: Mia Khalifa’s Instagram clearly lists her name as Sarah Joe (BLP violation removed).
- Interview Clip: A clip from the interview where Mia states her real name can be found on YouTube.
- Full Podcast: The full interview is available on Apple Podcasts, where the description also mentions her real name.
This would provide readers with accurate information about her real name while respecting her privacy and following Wikipedia's guidelines.
Thank you for considering this. Daniel Caspi (talk) 17:49, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- I've redacted the subject's last name, which is not mentioned on their Instagram as claimed. YouTube interviews and podcasts are self-published, so not usable unless published by the subject of the article. Without a good source for the full legal name, adding the personal name "Sarah Joe" is unencyclopedic trivia. We also can't assume someone's legal name is also their birth name.
- Per WP:BLPNAME,
When the name of a private individual has not been widely disseminated or has been intentionally concealed, such as in certain court cases or occupations, it is often preferable to omit it, especially when doing so does not result in a significant loss of context.
Coverage in outlets such as Indy100, Newsweek, and Variety continues to refer to her solely by her stage name as of late 2023, and she still goes by "MiaKhalifa" or "Mia K." on her various social media accounts (Instagram, Twitch, Twitter, YouTube), so I don't see any confusion or loss of context in omitting her legal name here. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:10, 28 August 2024 (UTC)- Thank you for the valuable feedback on my previous suggestion. I now understand that my initial proposal could have violated Wikipedia's BLP and NOR policies. As a new editor, I appreciate the guidance, which has helped me better grasp Wikipedia's standards.
- After further research, I found reliable sources that support including Mia Khalifa's preferred name, "Sarah Joe." These sources not only confirm that this is her birth name but also highlight her preference to be called by it:
- The Sun: States that Mia Khalifa currently prefers to go by her birth name.
- LADbible: Discusses her addition of "Sarah Joe" to her Instagram bio, causing confusion among fans.
- The Daily Wire: Mentions her birth name, adding credibility to its inclusion.
- While her full name "Sarah Joe (BLP violation removed)" is mentioned in these sources, I believe it’s important to respect her preference to be known simply as "Sarah Joe," which is consistent with her birth name.
- Thank you for considering this. Daniel Caspi (talk) 07:44, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

- The sources you listed are tabloids. Morbidthoughts (talk) 07:58, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- Concur that the above sources are not usable (FWIW, The Sun & LadBible simply call her "Mia", while The Daily Wire actually uses "Khalifa" throughout). Once again, the subject's supposed preference to be known by her birth name is certainly odd given that she uses some version of "Mia Khalifa" on all her social media accounts. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 09:09, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- I want to thank the experienced editors for their feedback, which is helping me better understand Wikipedia's guidelines and improve my contributions.
- I acknowledge that LADBIBLE and The Sun are entertainment news outlets and not generally considered reliable. However, they are relevant when discussing a public figure in the media and entertainment world like Mia Khalifa.
- The Daily Wire, on the other hand, is a serious news outlet with a conservative perspective, not a tabloid.
- More importantly, regardless of the debate over her birth or legal name, Mia Khalifa has publicly identified herself as "Sarah Joe" several times. She continues to present this name on her Instagram account, where she has 26 million followers. This shows that while she still uses "Mia Khalifa," she also publicly shares the name "Sarah Joe."

- By exclusively using Mia Khalifa's stage name, we risk overlooking her deliberate choice to also publicly identify as Sarah Joe. This choice reflects her agency in shaping her own narrative, balancing her professional persona with her personal identity. Acknowledging both names allows us to respect the complexity of her multifaceted character. Mia Khalifa is not just the adult actress who debuted with that name years ago; she is also a human being with a past and a personal life beyond her public persona. Since she has chosen to use both names on her widely followed profile, it’s appropriate that we recognize and acknowledge both as integral parts of her identity, past and present.
