I apologize but do not understand why you consider this "disruptive" or "vandalism." Raven-Symoné is a very famous celebrity and entertainer who openly discusses her recent problems with her weight. The addition of her name and a brief description of her best work to the "Plus-Sized Entertainers" page (to me at least) does not seem inappropriate. She is a very successful young woman who has embraced her self-image, serving as a role model to young females that may struggle with such issues. Is this not the epitome of a plus-sized entertainer? If someone has struggled with but overcome problems like she has, I don't see why that doesn't belong. Her main page also has some discussion others have had about this. A fact is a fact.
- Well, let's see: Your latest edit was made to appear as if it had a reference, but the reference is to a dead website that cannot be verified. Describing her character as gigantic certainly isn't respectful language, and she isn't a model. Only one of your edits even approaches being acceptable, and it seems a little odd that discussions of her weight is the only thing you have been interested in adding to Misplaced Pages.
