Wikipedia's article on the Rothschilds: "Jewish family" replaced with "European family"

The article's edit history contains a lively discussion among editors about why the Rothschilds suddenly became a family with a "European background" instead of a "Jewish" one, how this relates to politics, and why it is nonetheless correct to state their ethnicity.

In the end the editors did replace the new wording with "Ashkenazi Jews".
