Talk:Marta DuBois

Contested deletion
This article is about an actress that appeared, albeit with minor roles, in several well-known TV series such as Star Trek: The Next Generation (1 episode), Magnum, P.I. (6 episodes), had a recurring role in a franchise of 9 TV movies (the McBride series from 2005 to 2007) and appeared in a few feature films. Her work is credibly sourced (imdb). The case does not look like one for speedy deletion. If it were, it would be under case G4, not A7. Fbergo (talk) 01:17, 20 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Two other points: 1) the previous deletion request (2015) succeeded due to lack of sources, which is not the case for this new article; and 2) and editor who requested this CSD, User:Scorpion293, has been indefinitely blocked a shortly after this CSD request, which may have been part of his stream of disruptive editing.

Unexplained cast reference to Tales of the Gold Monkey
I remember Marta DuBois on the series "Tales of the Gold Monkey" which starred Stephen Collins and Caitlin O'Heaney in the lead roles. I do not understand the reference to anthropologist Elizabeth Lindsey in this context. Suggest it be replaced by one to O'Heaney, given the context of the sentence and that O'Heaney has an existing Wikipedia page on her.Random noter (talk) 16:24, 1 May 2018 (UTC) I went ahead and made that change.

Death and Sources
I understand that IMDB alone should not be used as source, and for that the mention of her death has been reverted several times. But she apparently really passed away in 8 May 2018 and that did not make any major online news sources. It has been noted in IMDB, has been commented on social media by close colleagues (e.g., which clearly cannot be used as wikipedia source) and there is an online obituary, which I have added to the article (here: and here ). Forums of fans of Magnum PI and Macgyver have also discussed it (again, not reliable sources for the article). A print source would be best. Can anyone from the Los Angeles area find an actual encyclopaedia-worthy source (local print news paper, maybe some kind of public record) ? Fbergo (talk) 00:24, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Added a link from Find a Grave, which I hope can add some reliability.(194.69.14.123 (talk) 07:31, 1 August 2018 (UTC))
