Comment[edit]

Regarding deletion, this was simply a typo (3 for #) and I have corrected it, which required removing the delete tag. μηδείς (talk) 20:29, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ancestry.com[edit]

Someone added a date of birth and birth place—which would be great to have—but cited them to ancestry.com, which I believe we're supposed to avoid for biographies of living people as unreliable. Hence I have provisionally reverted those changes. I started a section at the BLP noticeboard for guidance. Yngvadottir (talk) 14:39, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sperm bank baby[edit]

The article states that Aquilina had twins in her fifties "through a sperm bank". But this seems to be incomplete information, since the twins would have needed an egg in addition to a sperm for their inception, but Aquilina in her fifties was most likely past menopause and therefore no longer producing viable eggs. - Unless she had had some eggs frozen at an earlier time in her life, the egg would have had to come from a donor, or from a surrogate mother. - Wwallacee (talk) 08:22, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Look at the source; there's more information there for those who want to know. But I didn't want to dwell on her private life. Yngvadottir (talk) 22:05, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article Edits[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians. Within the next few weeks, I will be researching Aquilina's background to discover more useful information for her page in lieu of the recent controversy regarding the Larry Nassar court case. Feel free to give any advice or anything you'd like to see included! Lyndseyclos (talk) 22:39, 19 February 2018 (UTC)Lyndsey[reply]

Article Sources[edit]

Hi, again! I will be creating an edited draft of this article within the next few weeks using the sources below (some are in MLA format, others are just links to websites). Please check out the sources and let me know your thoughts on which would be useful and which sources may not be credible or helpful for Aquilina's page! I plan to focus on adding more content about her life, her career as a judge, and her role in the Larry Nassar case.

Updated Sections[edit]

Hi, all!

I have updated every section on this page to include more citations, linked Wikipedia pages, different wording in sentences (since some were directly from other sources, hence there was plagiarism), and more information about her life and career as is pertinent and neutral. I plan to also add in an info box soon. Although I originally wanted to add in a photo of Aquilina and a photo from the Larry Nassar trial, all of the images were copy righted and therefore cannot be added.
