Talk:Lindsay Price/Archive 1

Question
"She is the daughter of a Korean mother and a German-Irish American father who grew up as a family, when Lindsay's mother was adopted from Korea by her grandparents"

Am I misunderstanding this line, or did Price's mother marry her adoptive brother? MK2 04:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)


 * That's one way to interpret that sentence. It could also be taken as meaning that Price's grandparents adopted her (Korean) mother, who then went on to marry a German-Irish American man who was unrelated to her in any other way. Clarification, anyone? -- Jalabi99 09:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)


 * This sentence makes (almost) no sense. It's barely proper English.  Taken literally, it says that either Lindsay grew up as a family, or Lindsay's father grew up as a family, neither of which makes sense.  A person can't grow up as a family.  If I knew what the writer was trying to say, I'd fix it.  I'm guessing the meaning is something like the following: "She is the daughter of a Korean-American mother and a German-Irish-American father.  Her mother was adopted from Korea."  I'm actually going to go ahead and make this change in the article, but I might be mistaken in my guess at the meaning. 160.39.50.17 (talk) 07:32, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Your comment was not "vandalized". I removed it as you were replying to an 8 year old comment in a 10 year old thread about a sentence that was re-worded years ago. Nymf (talk) 13:42, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

According to many many sites on the web, Lindsay's parents were indeed family by adoption. Most of the sites (IMDb, TV.com, etc.) would not be considered valid sources for Wikipedia, but one of the following might (especially EW which is a printed magazine owned by Time Warner). —MJBurrage(T•C) 20:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

 * point noted about the age of thread and comment, but fact remains that the section in the ARTICLE is wrong and/or confusing in the HERE AND NOW. if the sentence was "re-worded" (sic) way back when, well then, it was only made WORSE.


 * but at least i know why you vandalized it. removing something from the article is one thing; removing relevant comments from the Talk page is quite another.  not to mention locking things up in an archive right afterwards, so I cannot even point out your error!  my, that was convenient.


 * anyway, pls either de-archive this or make the appropriate corrections in the article. or give me some confidence that you won't delete/change/revert things if i fix them myself.


 * BTW, i would have left this on your talk page, but i see pr0n there, so i'm steering clear. Cheers. 209.172.23.254 (talk) 02:02, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Whose Armistice?!
a big thanks to whoever reworded the paragraph about her parents. MUCH clearer now, despite nymf's protestations.

one quibble though -- the korean war CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. so a phrase like "after the korean war" is meaningless. i am not sure what the proper terminology is -- any military historians in the house? definitely needs to be tweaked. 209.172.23.114 (talk) 04:24, 29 July 2015 (UTC)
