As reported to WP:BLPN, it is not appropriate to mention her father's conviction here. Apart from anything else it is totally irrelevant to the subject. See WP:BLP WP:UNDUE WP:COATRACK, etc, etc, etc. Barney the barney barney (talk) 20:30, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Copyedit request

[edit]

Most novels are fiction so

the word 'fiction' should be removed and its title italicised. Rothorpe (talk) 01:47, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done; also wikilinked novel just in case they don't know. --Redrose64 (talk) 12:55, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. Could you also italicise the title, The Ice Room, please? Rothorpe (talk) 13:41, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Done. --Tikiwont (talk) 15:58, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fine, thanks. Rothorpe (talk) 16:35, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, now I notice that there should be a comma after 'Pythia'. Rothorpe (talk) 17:55, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Rothorpe (talk) 23:08, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Composer

[edit]

Could the composer claim be clarified, sourced or removed, please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.7.80.60 (talk) 09:40, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dragonforce

[edit]

Having scanned the Dragonforce entry on Wikipedia, I find no association with the subject of this wiki article, backing vocals or otherwise. Could the claim be sourced, clarified or deleted as appropriate? Anyway, is performing backing vocals a legitimate enough achievement to cite a genuine relationship with Dragonforce? 92.7.80.60 (talk) 10:03, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The claim is correctly sourced and she is also mentioned in the Dragonforce article.Theroadislong (talk) 11:00, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is being the subject of a painting by one's father evidence of "notability"?

[edit]

I notice a new section has been created in response to the request for evidence of notability. Is being the subject of a painting by your father evidence of "notability"? I would be surprised if it was especially as I am unaware that the painting in question is particularly notable either!

Apologies in advance if I am being obtuse; I am a new Wikipedia editor and getting to know the territory and rules! Thanks InviolataIngenue (talk) 12:44, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not suggesting it makes her notable per se, but her father is a VERY notable and controversial painter with paintings and prints in the Tate and many other major galleries through out the world.Theroadislong (talk) 12:47, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, so she's notable by default of her father being a well known painter. Now I understand... Thanks. (Though having said that, wouldn't that make any subject of her father's oeuvre automatically "notable" in the same way? InviolataIngenue (talk) 12:56, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't say it made her notable?Theroadislong (talk) 13:00, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! so she's - potentially- notable by default of her father being a well known painter? Now I understand (!) Thanks. But I thought your original edit drawing attention to the painting was an attempt to evidence the subject's notability as per the request at the top of the article and yet you now say the painting doesn't make her notable (per se or otherwise). . I'm confused! Thanks though, it's a learning curve for me... InviolataIngenue (talk) 13:15, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone clarify or evidence the "composer" claim, please?

[edit]

What has she composed, exactly that is notable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.7.97.104 (talk) 10:39, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
