Babe[edit]

Although not listed on this article, I saw her name as voicing the cat (simply known as "Cat") in the 1995 movie Babe.68.206.17.148 (talk) 09:45, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled[edit]

Daisy Nohara? Is that Mitzi/Mitsuki? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.70.113 (talk) 23:18, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Teddy Ruxpin character[edit]

Why is there a link to her from Teddy Ruxpin's character section, yet the article doesn't mention her work as a voice character on the Teddy Ruxpin stories?--76.206.22.229 (talk) 02:55, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

She voiced Leota the woodsprite, as credited in the books that accompanied the cassette tapes. I'm surprised it's not listed in the article actually.2602:304:CFD3:2EE0:1816:6D6F:C6B:67AE (talk) 04:48, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Cemetery[edit]

Does anyone know where Russi Taylor is buried? Perhaps next to Wayne Allwine at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California. Is that true? 98.235.131.222 (talk) 15:04, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Russi is located in a single garden crypt in lot 6225 in Forest Lawn. Wayne is in the next lot, 6226.

Picture[edit]

The image on the wiki is atrocious. As a friend of Russi, I was hoping someone could find another, less pinched, shot. The image used in her Find A Grave page is vastly superior to the terrible image. She probably would have laughed at the entire notion of changing her picture since she used her face the way she used her voice but she was a wonderful person and the world should remember her as the beautiful soul she was, inside and out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mawtino (talk • contribs) 17:00, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mawtino I completely agree. It is not an image that represents the subject and goes against WP policy. I came here the other day to research the subject and was shocked by the image. I am going to remove it. Let the discuss for consensus to keep begin here; but it will be hard pressed to reinsert since there are countless other images that can be used that better represent the subject. Maineartists (talk) 23:19, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the picture is not a good one. When Maineartists left this edit summary Per Talk page request; image does not represent subject in keeping with WP policy. "Per Talk page request" caught my eye and I wanted to see the discussion and or edit request, this is neither. Just wanted to say, one response ≠ consensus. - FlightTime (open channel) 23:56, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FlightTime Thanks for your keen observations and astute input. In hindsight, I should have merely stated the action rather than the supported reason. So, strike: "Per Talk Page request" and simply insert: "Bold edit." As for consensus, I'm not sure I directly stated a consensus had been reached; only to invite a discussion that would warrant a consensus for reinsertion. Funnily, in reviewing the above: 1) "The image on the wiki is atrocious", 2) "I completely agree" and 3) "I agree that the picture is not a good one"; it can be said that an agreement has at least been started. Thanks again! Maineartists (talk) 12:31, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Revisited this page (and image) and I still agree with Mawtino. This image is terrible. Period. I'm going to find one that is appropriate and fitting for a WP BLP article. FlightTime "consensus" does not apply when common sense and WP standards overrule. After all this time, 2 to 1 = consensus. Maineartists (talk) 00:27, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Maineartists: Great, please do, I never disagreed that it was a bad image and "common sense is no longer common". Cheers, - FlightTime (open channel) 00:54, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps this will solve the issue: the original uploader claimed to own the copyright but he doesn't. The actual owner is:

Creator: Alberto E. Rodriguez Credit: Getty Images Copyright: 2018 Getty Images

So, that being said, the image is misappropriated and can be dumped, yes? Mawtino (talk) 04:50, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Something upsets me when I see that Russi's shot and killed[edit]

I'm gonna literally tell everybody to stop feeding me lies when I see that Russi Taylor didn't die of diabetic complications or get shot and killed when she actually passed away from colon cancer! This is ridiculous! DakotaSunn95 (talk) 07:29, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Phantasma[edit]

The career section doesn't mention her voiving phantasma in Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School 209.16.149.3 (talk) 23:24, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We don't have a reliable source to support that claim, do you? - FlightTime (open channel) 23:31, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I miss Russi Taylor...[edit]

Russi Taylor was the best voice actor of Minnie Mouse, but sadly passed away, she was replaced with Kaitlyn Robrock, She made me feel better. 2601:248:4400:1A10:D584:CED7:AC64:8CED (talk) 00:41, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
