Claire Meade[edit]

Hi, I shortened the paragraph on Claire Meade because it duplicated info already found in the Claire Meade article. --Mezaco 19:02, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request Anent Important Undocumented Stage Work[edit]

I am certain Judith Light starred in a staging of Ibsen's Hedda Gabler some time after the cancellation of her television sitcom Who's The Boss in 1992. This is an important legitimate theatrical endeavor: Hedda Gabler is one of only a few roles to approach Hamlet for an actress. Anyone who has information appertaining to this portrayal is encouraged to post it on the Judith Light biography page. Prime-daedalus (talk) 05:35, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NOT born Judith Ellen "Licht"[edit]

You see it time and time again that Ms. Light was born Judith Ellen "Licht". This is simply UNTRUE. I work very closely with Judith on a daily basis and can assure you she was born Judith Ellen Light. It is true, however, that the surname "Light" descended from the surname "Licht", hence the misunderstanding. Judith's father is Mr. Sidney Light, and always has been. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnwmclaughlin (talk • contribs) 20:57, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"One Life to Live" -- 23 episodes[edit]

Section 5.3, Filmography:TV Series states that she was in 23 episodes of One Life To Live. This is just incorrect -- I watched the show while she was on it, and as her bio section notes, she was a lead character for 8 years, for a show that aired 5 days a week. She was certainly in hundreds of episodes, possibly close to a thousand.

The problem is, I can't find a source for it. IMDB only lists ~40 episodes, and I haven't found any soap-specific DB.

So what's the right way to fix this incorrect info? Just remove the episode count altogether from the column, since there's no source given?

Anti-Semitic "Jew-tagging"[edit]

Once again, Wikipedia allows the "born to a Jewish family" tag to identify people born Jewish, when the religions of non-Jewish people are, by comparison, only very rarely mentioned. It's a thinly-veiled anti-Semitic practice that Wikipedia actively enables, and it's disgraceful.
