Semi-protected edit request on 27 June 2022

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

There is a sentence in the 'Personal Life' section which mentions Curtis' daughters. It specifies Ruby's transness, which I think should be excised as I don't think it is necessary to the context of the sentence. The source that supports the sentence describes how Ruby is transgender - and whilst the source is necessary because it supports the fact about Ruby being Jamie's daughter - her being trans isn't relevant to the content of the sentence itself. It's inappropriate for Ruby to be defined by her transness, and in the context of this sentence it comes across as saying she's not a real woman (unlike her cisgender sister) - even if that wasn't the intention of the writer. I definitely think that wasn't the intention since the sentence is otherwise written respectfully. 92.10.13.209 (talk) 23:51, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. - FlightTime (open channel) 23:52, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

I don't think that that's necessary - since someone else has already requested this alteration above - and had it approved. Someone must have changed it back, despite what was established in the talk, so I'd appreciate if my request was added. 92.10.13.209 (talk) 23:55, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

I agree with 92.10.13.209. That's unnecessarily personal information about a non-notable family member. I've removed it. Schazjmd (talk) 00:08, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Acting career

The chronology of this section is messy. The reference to the Halloween franchise should be move to the end or moved to a special section. Refering to her as scream queen is not substatiated with any source. Theking2 (talk) 14:07, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

The nickname "Scream Queen" is easily verifiable; I've added a source to the article. Schazjmd (talk) 14:13, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

The personal information about Jamie Lee Curtis is incorrect in describing her as "The Right Honourable Lady Haden-Guest". The title "The Right Honourable" only applied to members of the Privy Council. She would be correctly described as "Lady Haden-Guest" Dr Roger (talk) 16:42, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

This is wrong so please ignore it!!! Dr Roger (talk) 17:00, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Jamie Lee Curtis

From its length and depth, this appears to be a self-written Misplaced Pages entry. Although I skimmed it, I found it fascinating and delightful. So thank you, Ms. Curtis: I like you even more than I did before. 2604:3D08:2D81:6B00:E5F0:7C68:310A:452C (talk) 19:01, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

Personal life

They have two adopted daughters: Annie, born in 1986, and Ruby, born in 1996.

This is false they adopted a daughter named Annie and son named Thomas. You can add the Thomas transitioned and now calls themselves Ruby but to omit all reality, and change factual history, is contrary to the purpose of an encyclopedia.

Record Facts. Thank You. Zzvicezz (talk) 04:43, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Refer to MOS:GENDERID. Misplaced Pages is written under a neutral point of view respecting living people's lives. (CC) Tbhotch 04:58, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

WP:OWNERSHIP issues

Cryptkeeperfun seems to be displaying blatant WP:OWNERSHIP by blindly reverting mass edits here with nary an explanation. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 18:45, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

I think the same can be said for you. You are the one removing established content, not me. Don't be a hypocrite. Cryptkeeperfun (talk) 18:51, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Explain your reasoning instead of resorting to WP:PERSONALATTACKS. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 18:51, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Please pay heed to your own advice. Cryptkeeperfun (talk) 18:53, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

I did. Now your turn. :) Krimuk2.0 (talk) 18:55, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

No, you didn't. You are removing mass info from the heading for no valid reason, which appears to be vandalism, when I'm only restoring established content. It's clear you have an agenda and have resorted to making me an enemy, when I'm not. You're behaving like a brait and you should be ashamed of yourself. Cryptkeeperfun (talk) 19:02, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Firstly, it's called the WP:LEAD, and not a "heading". And it's a summary of the article, and not a listing of her credits. Also, please understand what WP:VANDALISM is. There is no such thing as an "established" content. An article, especially a B-class one as this, can and should be improved. And thirdly, and in more severe terms, calling people a "brat" and a "hypocrite" is exactly what WP:PERSONALATTACKS asks you not to do. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 19:04, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

I do understand what WP:VANDALISM is, do you? That's why I was reverting your mass removal edits. Anyone reviewing our edits can clearly see you began threats and hostility towards me, nothing you can reply to me can change that. It's now up to other edits to restore the edits if they see fit, I'm not restoring anymore content from your mass removal agenda. Cryptkeeperfun (talk) 19:11, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
