Talk:Jessica Alba/Archive 3

More images
The article already has plenty of images and more would be overkill, but just in case anyone needs some in the future (such as if some of the current ones get deleted for some reason), here are two I bumped into on Commons: File:Jessica Alba2.jpg and File:Jessica Alba ComicCon.JPG.

Parents
In the personal life: religion section there is a contradiction about her parents its starts "Although her parents weren't religious" but later says "They're really religious" I'm assuming the quote from her is accurate but could someone change it so it is correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.76.187.92 (talk) 23:28, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Seconded. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.92.114.160 (talk) 17:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

I noticed the same thing -- that needs to be fixed. Rjcflyer (talk) 21:29, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Addition about Bill O'Reilly
Thank you to Locke Cole for adding a source on that statement (even though it appears to be a news aggregator rather than an actual article). Still, though, I don't think it's encyclopaedic (here is the addition) and smacks of recentism. It's simply not that significant (political leanings in general are, but this is just one statement, and a pretty innocuous one at that, in a section that already shows her political leanings, the fact that she supported Obama, etc.). I didn't want to revert without discussion now that it's not a BLP violation (the first time the information was added, I removed it because there was no source), but there's my two cents.

 * Agreed. It's just a recent event, and not something noteworthy in the context of her entire life or career. Nightscream (talk) 23:11, 22 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok, I'm gonna remove it for now then. In addition to you, even Locke Cole (who added the ref) said it might not be encyclopaedic...that's enough consensus for me. Politizer talk / contribs 23:19, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Adult family life
"Alba began a four year romance with fellow co-star Michael Weatherly" is repetitive. It should simply say "with co-star Michael Weatherly". Ssladler (talk) 13:32, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Polit i zer talk / contribs 13:36, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Early Life
here it says "(both his parents were born in California)" when it should be "her" since she's a female... Vampire heart26 (talk) 05:41, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The line refers to Alba's father. It's saying both his parents (Alba's paternal grandparents) were born in California. Gimmetrow 05:45, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yah, i noticed my mistake afterwards. >.< Vampire heart26 (talk) 23:25, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

IBeatYou
I am considering adding info about Jessica and her husband starting the growing social networking web site IBeatYou.com. I wanted to get some feedback before adding it. Hda3ku (talk) 22:14, 6 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Is there no one wanting to comment about this possible addition? Hda3ku (talk) 15:30, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Regarding Alba and religion
I went through the article where she talks about religion (references 39 and 40) but didn't find anything about "older men hitting on her". I think it should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.74.248.103 (talk) 12:11, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
 * References added&mdash;a little googling goes a long way. Page 4 of current ref #39 (the GQ article) also alludes to this same thing, although it doesn't include the exact quotation. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 13:54, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Typo
Please change "epsiode" to "episode". Thanks - 58.8.17.219 (talk) 17:18, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
 * ✅, thanks. &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 18:07, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

New additions
Ashley92995 has made some large additions to the article (diff, 34 revisions), much of which needs reviewed. I tried to clean up some (diffs), but a lot of work is still needed, and I have left some tags: Since this article is currently listed as a Good Article, the cleanup needs to be done pretty quickly. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 13:13, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) A copyedit of all the additions is needed, as they include lots of grammatical, stylistic, and typographical errors; I tried to fix what I could, but there are probably still problems, and I would appreciate it if a third editor could go through and look before removing the tag.
 * 2) Many of the additions, especially in the "personal life" section, are just lots of quotations from Alba or others. I tagged the personal life section with and have removed lots of quotes already, but all the additions still need to be reviewed, as many of the quotes don't contribute much or could be summarized instead of quoted; WP:QUOTE has more information.
 * 3) All the references added are bare urls, and need to be formatted properly to include all the ref information (author, title, date, publisher, accessdate, etc.). Since the rest of the article uses citation templates, these should as well. Cleaning up the refs is not difficult, just a little time-consuming.


 * Now Ashley92995 has done this again (19 revisions). Major cleanup is still needed; most of these additions are undesirable, because they have added grammatical errors ("had asthma since she child"), overly flowery peacock wording ("Alba's "sex appeal" begins to reache new heights"), and overly detailed point-by-point recounting of every award she has gotten (the Public Image section is now a ridiculous prose timeline describing every award she has ever gotten). This article is beginning to look more and more like a fansite. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 12:02, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry for any troubles I have caused while editing (grammer, citations etc). It was an honest mistake, I don't want to in any way negatively effect this article. I'm having a very hard time fixing references, so if you could, could you help me reedit the references the right way. -Ashley92995 11:00pm June 25, 2009


 * I do agree with what your saying on the public image section, I think that regular awards she has won should be added to the career section because awards, noms, etc are part of her work as an actress. I'm going to move awards and noms from public image section to career section. -Ashley92995 11:00pm June 25, 2009

romantic
"Alba has signed on to star in the 2010 romancit comedy" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.224.127.233 (talk) 06:33, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

first word is superfluous
"In Alba is set to star alongside Kate Hudson and Casey Affleck in the film adaption of the book of the same name" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.224.127.233 (talk) 06:35, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
