Photo[edit]

Although we have a photo up, we should have one portraying just Carlson. In the old article (prior to its deletion due to the fact it was a direct copy), there was a picture; I don't know if it's still saved somewhere. Mike 7 00:52, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Most notable, huh?[edit]

How can she be "most notable" for a show that lasted maybe 13 episodes when she was a main character on Third Watch for three years?(A show that's not even mentioned except in passing at the bottom)--T. Anthony 12:39, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Then, did you add information on that? Most recently, she was in TBJ as one of the co-stars. Michael 17:45, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just did so, but I intended to stop editing articles. Ahh well.--T. Anthony 06:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, then. Michael 06:42, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

College age?[edit]

The section on her background seems to imply that she started college at the age of 14. Which isn't completely unheard of, but if true, it is notable and should be mentioned explicitly. If not, those sentences need a rewrite... /blahedo (t) 23:26, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Spouse or partner?[edit]

if you ask google if shes married, a million websites say she and syd butler got married in 2004. i didnt edit because im not sure what constitutes credibility. im assuming quality over quantity. and i didnt really find that.

just wondering if maybe she really is married. Snarevox (talk) 03:14, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article smacks of puffery throughout.[edit]

Anti-NPOV adjectives and puffery-style descriptive phrasing throughout. She’s a good actor and deserves a solid NPOV article in our encyclopedia. (It seems likely that a lot of the article was written by a paid editor.)

Please see the NPOV edit I just did on the first intro paragraph (complete with a small joke in the “Improved?” description).

I don’t have the bandwidth to rework the whole article anytime soon, but felt an obligation to point this out. Left Central (talk) 15:01, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
