Talk:Mary Tyler Moore

Infobox Image
I think that we should change the infobox image for several main reasons. 1) MTM has been deceased since 2017. 2) The image is from during her later life (2000). 3) MTM’s career peak was from 1961-1977, when she was on Dick van Dyke’s show and did the Mary Tyler Moore Show, so an image from that period of time would be more appropriate.

One of these images from her 1967 trip to the Netherlands, in my opinion, would be the best option for the infobox image:


 * Agreed. Move the current infobox image to the down to the awards and honors section. I'm leaning towards the second 1967 picture showed. I'm also not opposed to The One I Left's suggestion. There's also the 1978 publicity photo which is seen in the article as well. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 22:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment A year later, there's a solid consensus to post a B&W pic over the 2011 pic for the infobox. I'll be bold and change the infobox image given this consensus from a year ago. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 23:17, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Can we use an image that represents her as most people recall her? Preferably the MTM Show era, but the even the DVD era would be more familiar than the current photo, updated 15 May 2024.

 * I don't like this change. The 2011 picture is more flattering than the black-and-white shot somebody just switched it with. As a matter of fact, the 2011 pic is more flattering than anything on Wikimedia. Mary looked better in 2011 than she did in 1978. Short hair did her no favors; very aging. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ieonine (talk • contribs) 00:07, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
