Talk:Ashley Massaro

Pre-GA review
Just a couple of things Nikki
 * A few things in the infobox aren't sourced, but they should be easy enough to find sources for.
 * Debut and early feuds (2005–2006)
 * "In June 2005, after beating the seven other chosen finalists, Massaro was declared the winner on the August 15, 2005 edition of Raw" - two conflicting dates - June 2005 and August 2005. Seems like part of a sentence or something has been removed.
 * 'attacked Massaro to welcome her to Raw" doesn't really make sense - perhaps attacked her after pretending to welcome her to Raw" or something alonf those lines.
 * "a jealous Mickie James" - why was James jealous?
 * London and Kendrick; release (2006–2008)
 * 'Surrounding the release of the cover" doesn't sound quite right to me, but maybe it's just me...
 * 'Massaro had loosened a screw in her ankle that needed to be surgically repaired by being reinserted into a plate in her ankle, which was inserted last year after she legitimately fractured her tibia and fibula while in a battle royal." - whoa! Too many thoughts in one sentence - perhaps split it into two?
 * Modeling and acting
 * "and even appeared" - sounds very suprised imo. Remove the "even"


 * That's really it, apart from a lot of inconsistency between "Ashley" and "Massaro" throughout the article. Pick one and stick with it. Good luck with the review! Go n'éirigh an bóthar leat - ♥ Nici ♥ 18:55, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much! I fixed all the above problems. Nikki  ♥  311  22:41, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Father to Ashley's daughter
Who is the father of Ashley's daughter? Why there is no mention about him? --Rimara (talk) 11:26, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Because it is not information that needs to be made public. There is a thing called "privacy". Darrenhusted (talk) 10:01, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Good news I found out that Ashley's daughter Alexa's father is Austin Fierstadt. Foudn this form []. Kingzwest (talk) 20:04, 23 June 2020 (UTC)(talk)

thanks so much, please do change it. Barbieespiritx (talk) 04:40, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Since the article has been semi-protected due to disputes over the image used, you will need to gain consensus to change the image first before making an edit request. Furthermore, we would be unable to use a Playboy cover in this article as this would be a copyrighted image and therefore be in violation of our non-free content policy as free images are available.

Ashley Massaro posted on twiter she wanted to change her wikipedia picture, I uploaded the photo she mentioned

 * Yes check.svg Done DannyS712 (talk) 16:36, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * ❌ She has not proven she owns the rights to this photo. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 19:59, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * @HickoryOughtShirt?4: She's claimed on her verified Twitter that she owns the picture. Is this something she'll need to (have her people) contact OTRS about? —C.Fred (talk) 22:09, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * The problem is I found the photo on google and other websites so I am unsure how much she owns this photo. Just a side note, when this whole thing started she did not claim to own it yet, just wanted the photo changed, so that was where I was coming from at first. My only worry is that she is misunderstanding the term "own" and this photo has been uploaded under different names on Commons and tagged for deletion on Commons too (by other people) so those will have to be rounded up if not already taken care of. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:12, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Since she's engaged directly via Twitter about this, do you think it's worth sending a reply tweet to her? "You need to contact Wikipedia directly to prove that you own the photo and can give away the rights" with a link to WP:OTRS or WP:DCM? —C.Fred (talk) 22:18, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I was debating about that but I do not have a Twitter account. One person in the comments has mentioned this to her twice, . I guess I'll just create one? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:23, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I have two. :) —C.Fred (talk) 22:31, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your responses and attentiveness. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:37, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

News of death
It looks like other news sources are still pointing back to the TMZ story about her, but there is starting to be wide coverage of her death. That's why I went from removing it to letting it stand. A quick reminder that WP:BLP still applies to the recently deceased, "particularly to contentious or questionable material about the dead that has implications for their living relatives and friends". —C.Fred (talk) 00:17, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
 * The LA times doesn't point back to TMZ, so I added it as another source for confirmation. --DannyS712 (talk) 00:51, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
 * LA Times is going off a WWE statement, so I feel much more comfortable with the veracity of the story now. —C.Fred (talk) 01:02, 17 May 2019 (UTC)


 * It's looking more and more like an OD....she was very frail and skeletal looking leading up to this so that's my best guess. also wondering about whether she was fearing turning 40 10 days from her death cuz the timing is suspicious to say the least. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.151.123.139 (talk) 08:46, May 17, 2019 (UTC)

Problem is her Cause of Death up on the page says suicide while clearly reports are it is still undetermined. It’s inappropriate to say the least it was a Suicide when nothing has been determined as it’s only been 24hrs.
 * The Blast is reporting that it's a suicide, they apparently confirmed that through a post on a fake Shelly Martinez facebook post, per PWInsider. We should remove all suicide mentions until it gets confirmed through a more reliable source.LM2000 (talk) 23:40, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Aye. Or "unless" it gets confirmed. Happy thoughts! InedibleHulk (talk) 23:43, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Sourcing and adding info on death JohnWickTheBoogeyman (talk) 02:06, 22 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Not entirely sure how much more detail is needed, as what's here was sufficient before your request was made. The only question remains is whether her brain injury contributed to her depression and suicide, which has in some cases, but we may never know for her. —  Wylie pedia  @ 02:15, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Yes before Ashley massaro passed she's wanted her pic changed to her red bikini photo. She has on in Twitter page on February 1 2019.

Cause/method of death sources
The cause and method of death are sourced to TMZ, which cites "multiple sources connected with the situation". Does that pass WP:RS, or should we pull it until there are other sources? —C.Fred (talk) 00:19, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * "TMZ is a tabloid news website" ~ Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid: it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives; Just a quote ~ in all the reliable sources I have read, they all talk about Donating ~ Just an example from ABC the ones I have seen relating to TMZ ~  state "the official cause of death has not been released" ~ I think we should wait until the official cause of death is released before we rely on TMZ reports Mitchellhobbs (talk) 10:52, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
