As those who have this article on their watch-lists may well have noticed, we have constant attempts to alter the info-box and the lead to make Shaw either more Irish and less British or alternatively more British and less Irish. The facts are, of course, as stated in the agreed FA version, and therefore in the current article. I have been looking at WP:INFONAT and I wonder if this article is one of the rare exceptions mentioned. Could we reasonably attempt to curtail some of the tinkering by adding to the I-B both Shaw's nationality (Irish, as we state in the first sentence of the lead) and his citizenship (British (1856–1950) and Irish (1934–1950))? Would that make matters clearer? Alternatively, perhaps just change "Nationality" to "Citizenship" in the info-box, leaving the details unchanged.
