Talk:Jenny Schecter

Most Hated character Poll
The fact that Jenny's character was voted the most hated in the L word comes hand-to-hand with the decision of the creators to take fan feedback for the last season. It's important to have the line included in an article as it helped decide the character's fate. I suggest conducting a discussion here on what should stay or not of that sentence. Whatever POV was compromised on the sentence has been considered. If a consensus isn't reached a Third Opinion will be requested. --TLW (talk) 22:20, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

WWJD?
I have added a section to Jenny's article on the now defunct blog What Would Jenny Do?. If anyone can find reference to the blog online it would greatly benefit the article's citations. Unfortunately OurChart.com has been merged to SHO.com and I guess most of the information hosted on the site is now permanently gone. --TLW (talk) 03:13, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Second & Third Season?
shouldnt someone put her second and third season?


 * Although Jenny's storyline is far more rich in the first season, part of the storyline involving those seasons has been added to the article. The fourth season should also be added. However, one should wait and see how it develops as there isn't much to say about her so far in it. --TLW 08:02, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

About The Jenny/Dana Link
Donnabella posted this question under Jenny's Chart thumbnail:

Didn't they have an awkward foreplay in the first season after which they mutually agreed that they were an awful match?


 * In fact, they did. But someone argued in Dana's article discussion page that they should not be connected because they didn't have anything. I was just making clear that the connection is based on the fact that 1) Jenny and Dana were connected on the Chart displayed at the end of episode 3.12 and 2) Jenny herself commented about the awkward hookup in episode 3.11. --TLW 04:27, 27 February 2007 (UTC).


 * By heteronormative standards, that someone in the Dana Talk page (which I couldn't find, btw) is absolutely right. None of their friends seemed aware of it without Jenny's comment. Donnabella 22:51, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * OK... I'll upload the chart for you within this talk page --TLW 03:21, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Jenny 800x600.jpg
Image:Jenny 800x600.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Any stats on the anti-Jenny lobby?
In the special features for the Season 4 DVDs, a lot of the fan writers mention identifying with Jenny, with two disclaimers: 1) she's a writer, and 2) even though all (*asterisk) the fans hate her. I'm also wondering how much Jenny is an alter ego of Ilene Chaiken? Factually there are some important differences (Jenny Schechter never worked on Fresh Prince) but as far as personality?

New
I gave the article a make over and it's better not to go crazy and expand the storyline section out again. Plenty of real world info thrown in there. That's how the others should look like, so L word fans, you know what to do. Lol RAIN the ONE  (Talk) 19:30, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

major cleanup
This article is embarrassingly bad and gramatically incorrect. I don't have time to clean it up right now, but it desperately needs it. Carrie1113 (talk) 02:17, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Only just seen this, if it bothers you, a month has passed, maybe you'd like to correct the faults? RAIN..the..ONE  HOTLINE 00:58, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

= Needs updating?=

in GQ the mystery of her death was revealed and I feel this needs to be added QueenAlexandria (talk) 17:15, 06 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Well, whatever GQ say, clearly drowning, or being drowned, in Bette and Tina's pool is highly symbolic. Discussion of what it symbolises might be fruitful. I don't have a clue, lol, especially if Jenny is Chaiken (but I'm sure the identity doesn't go that far). Otoh, Chaiken was mocked and accused of being a bit of a bully and stealing the show from Abbot and Greenberg after season 1, wasn't she? But all this is ancient history by now, and we're flogging a dead horse. FangoFuficius (talk) 08:50, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
 * There is no point is discussing what it may symbolise. Editors own views are not to be added to articles. We edit with sources only and we cannot assume anything.Rain the 1 10:13, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Incorrect gender affirmation reference
In this entry there’s a reference to Max taking hormone me blockers. Unless there’s a specific show reference, Max would have taken testosterone like most people assigned female at birth do when they have hormone therapy, not hormone blockers which are common among people assigned male at birth. 2600:1017:B82A:6D55:81F9:2425:4CAF:B69B (talk) 16:53, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
