Exterior Signs of Wealth

The "not" writing is pretty confusing for people unfamiliar with the subject. I've found some links to a Harper's Magazine interview (here), some explanation or a reference (hopefully to something better than what I've found) would be helpful to clarify the "not" writing. 195.177.83.221 (talk) 10:12, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright problem

This article has been reverted by a bot to this version as part of a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. (See the investigation subpage) This has been done to remove User:Accotink2's contributions as they have a history of extensive copyright violation and so it is assumed that all of their major contributions are copyright violations. Earlier text must not be restored, unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Contributors may use sources as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

Personal Life?

Not very much about her personal life and family history. Relationships? parents? children? etc? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.72.159.156 (talk) 15:02, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Life and career?

The career portion of the section is sparse and needs updating. NOTE: This article has been reverted by a bot. See "Copyright problem " for more information.

Merge from Exterior Signs of Wealth

This stub about an unfinished book seems to fail Wikipedia:Notability (book). The coverage this book received is only in passing. I think the best move would be to merge the two sentences this stub has here. When the book is published, if ever, it can be recreated. Thoughts? Also ping User:Tokyogirl79 who commented at a related Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Progress (book). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:46, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support. A search brought up little to show that this unpublished is notable enough for its own entry, or that it's really overly notable for not being published. I don't even see where the claim "achieved a level of media fame for not finishing it over many years", given that it's so infrequently mentioned as a whole. I've removed this from the article accordingly, as the supporting sources mention the book but don't actually say that this is why they interviewed her. Honestly, the interviews/articles seem to be about her career as a whole, with the book only getting an offhand mention at one point in the article in the same way that most authors' unreleased work gets mentioned. It can be restored once the book releases and gains enough coverage, if it ever does. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:48, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"due to the sexual harassment and expectation to sleep with the manager"

needs more precision. "expectation to sleep with" =

coitus coercion
pressured to fuck
"Weinsteined"

any better choices?.......0mtwb9gd5wx (talk) 20:01, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
