Cleanup

I have removed a lot of poorly sourced and unsourced text. As well as a lot of repetitive gossipy stuff and an inordinate amount of comments about her nose. This article badly needs attention from someone who knows enough about her to summarize all the commentary about drug addiction and write a balanced article. Some of the deleted material can probably be sourced, but most of it was rehashing the same stuff over and over and over. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 20:42, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have sourced it all to her biog. Thing is, her drug addiction was a massive part of her life so far. She's made films, written books and sold about a million stories about it to the press, so I dont think it being covered here in this depth is out of place. specific bits can be condensed, maybe, but I dont agree that the amount you removed was necessary.GunGagdin ^Moan 21:16, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Other names

She went by the name of Danniella Morgan for a while in the late nineties and was even credited as this on EastEnders episodes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.100.191 (talk) 07:01, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Per what reliable source? –anemone projectors– 14:09, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The episodes themselves for a start - example here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSmZJHpYP4w

But she appeared on chatshows and did magazine interviews at the time under Morgan.

I'm not being funny but for someone to assume control over all EE content on here you would at least think that person would have watched the show over a lengthy period of time and would already know something like this otherwise it is just guess work as to what to allow in articles regarding its continuity and history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.100.191 (talk) 07:25, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

All I did was ask for a reliable source. No need to be so rude. –anemone projectors– 09:01, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway, the article already says she was married to Ben Morgan. What exactly did you want added to the article? It's not as if the page is protected. You can add it yourself, if you supply a reliable source (not YouTube). –anemone projectors– 09:04, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There's a section in the info box 'alternative names' where Danniella Jenkins is listed. So you don't consider EastEnders episodes a reliable source (the fact I've used Youtube to prove it to you is neither here nor there), in that case most of the information on EastEnders articles can be removed, leaving blank pages. :p — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.108.184 (talk) 09:11, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can {{cite episode}}, yeah. –anemone projectors– 09:22, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just my two cents - I've definitely seen a cast card with Danniella Morgan on it. Can't be arsed to bend over backwards finding it just to please AP though. -Trampikey^{(talk)(contribs)} 12:20, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I already said that the episode can be cited. –anemone projectors– 13:31, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've added it anyway, without citation. –anemone projectors– 13:37, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Change to wording in line about gang rape.

"In 2013, Westbrook admitted in an interview that she had been kidnapped and gang raped by drug dealers during the period she was addicted." The word "admitted" seems inapropriate here, she can hardly be guilty of her own rape. How about. "In a 2013 interview, Westbrook talked about her kidnapping and gang rape by drug dealers during the period she was addicted."

NBeddoe (talk) 09:41, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that sounds good to me. Or she "revealed"? –anemone projectors– 10:24, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nice. I've changed it to "revealed". NBeddoe (talk) 09:56, 30 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Latest partner

George Arnold (2015–2016)

Nothing about him in the article. Did they split up in 2016, or was it just a mention that needs updating? Valetude (talk) 23:36, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
