Editing sorely needed

[edit]

This article needs to be edited by a competent writer. It's filled with poor grammatical constructions. For example, "After viewing the tape, Jackson was asked to join the show" grammatically indicates that Jackson viewed the tape, which is obviously not the case. Someone better at writing really needs to clean this up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.76.28 (talk) 01:39, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Naming family members

[edit]

I think we should not name her husband or her kids per WP:BLPNAME. Naming them adds no value that I can see, and per that policy there is a strong presumption to keep them out. If somebody has a strong reason (which cannot be "it is in sources") about how they add value to this bio, please say so. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 05:55, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, I think it's highly unusual to leave out the names of spouses in a BLP and see no harm in naming them. A reader is going to look at the article and want to know who they are. Infoboxes routinely carry the name(s) of spouses. Naming the child is something different and can fall under the policy you are citing, but spouses? I see no logical reason to omit that information. -- ψλ 12:42, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If there are good sources, WP:BLPNAME allows for both in/out, it´s up to editorial discretion. My personal preference is to leave at least names of non-public children out, but of course note that they exist. It´s not that uncommon on WP, see for example cherry-picked Bob_Huff#Personal_life.

Irony

[edit]
"They [Muslims] like beheadings and pedophile weddings".

Ironically with the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban, this is currently the default position of the left-leaning media in the United States. Perhaps this should be added to the article.Seki1949 (talk) 17:42, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unduly weighted against me statement according to Wikipedia Rules

[edit]

Hi,

There is a sentence on my page that was submitted by an unreliable source, according to Wikipedia Rules, it is Right Wing Watch...

It is also "Unduly weighted against me" according to Wikipedia rules.

the phrase is -

"In 2015, she spread conspiracy theories about Obama's religion, saying he was an "Islamic jihadist" who..."

It should be instead,

"In 2015, she suggested that Obama was an "Islamic jihadist" who supported....."

That's all.

I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you.

There is no reason to make that change. Victoria Jackson is, in fact, a crazy conspiracy theorist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.87.253.76 (talk) 19:07, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The word in question is not "spread" - it is "conspiracy" suggesting that I am a nut. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Freakingout8259 (talkcontribs) 22:18, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
