Talk:Naomi Judd

Gay Icon Project
In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article Gay icon to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article Gay icon and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much. Philwelch 20:59, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Why is there so much missing personal info from Naomi’s page?
There is a surprising amount of easily verifiable information missing from this well-known public figure. Under Background Information, why isn’t there any mention of her marriage, divorce or children? In her Personal information, there is no mention of her first child’s biological father, Charles Jordan, or date of her marriage to Ciminella. There is also no mention of her very public admission of severe suicidal depression or her daughter Ashley‘s revelation of sexual and child abuse. Hummer61 (talk) 12:28, 2 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Naomi also has a brother (who is a pastor) and a sister that is not mentioned in the Wiki page. 2603:80A0:4:1E00:2076:73EA:93FE:F1A (talk) 05:33, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

Cause of death
Someone has added cause of death “Ashley Judd stated mental illness” this is disrespectful and not accurate. 163.182.188.205 (talk) 20:39, 30 April 2022 (UTC)


 * A statement put out by the family said that was the cause of her death, so it should NOT be considered disrespectful, only too vague. 47.25.253.231 (talk) 20:51, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It may have been suicide but, for now, the only information available to the public is "mental illness". Charliestalnaker (talk) 22:31, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It seems likely that it maybe was suicide, however, until this is officially confirmed by family or a law agency, the family statement of we have lost our "beautiful mother to the disease of mental illness"Boopolo (talk) 11:41, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

It sounds like the consensus is to update the cause with a more direct cause, once that is known. That seems appropriate. If it was suicide, and if that resulted from mental illness, the latter can be added for context. John2510 (talk) 16:05, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
 * It's suicide, sad to say. https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/country-legend-naomi-judd-died-by-suicide-after-longtime-struggle-with-mental-health-sources/vi-AAWQJKz?ocid=undefined&cvid=beac38b5417e43bfaff641bdefa37542 Charliestalnaker (talk) 05:05, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

That video, as good as it is, says the same thing as the People article: Sources. Linmart254 (talk) 07:54, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 1 May 2022
She was set to be officially inducted into the country music hall of fame TOMORROW (5/1/22) she wasn’t inducted in 2021. 67.131.49.213 (talk) 00:13, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made.  Mini  apolis  01:38, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Is it possible to be inducted twice? Her induction today (5/1/22)is along with her daughter, Wynonna (as a duet/band). There seems to be no doubt that they were scheduled to be inducted before her death.
 * Done On checking talk is correct. Someone already edited and I further edited providing a reliable sources, the countrymusichalloffame.org own website. Boopolo (talk) 12:35, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

Profession
Wasn’t she also an RN? 2604:2D80:A283:C200:2800:69E7:47D0:D31 (talk) 00:51, 1 May 2022 (UTC)


 * yes, before she got famous 173.242.245.148 (talk) 13:46, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

Books
I don’t see any info about Naomi’s book River of time: My decent into depression and How I Emerged with Hope. It was published in 2016. Paige Matheson (talk) 19:14, 1 May 2022 (UTC)


 * She wrote lots of books, including two for children. Without a source listing them all (aside from her website), we can't list them all.  Wylie pedia  @ 00:49, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

The book is listed on Amazon in print and kindle edition. Wouldn’t that be a source?

Paige Matheson (talk) 22:24, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Forgot to ask, is there a rule we can’t list all the books she wrote? Paige Matheson (talk) 22:26, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Incorrect
This following is incorrect- On April 30, 2022, Judd died at her home in Nashville, Tennessee, aged 76.

First, Naomi Judd didn’t reside in Nashville. In the NYT article used as a source it says “died on Saturday outside Nashville” and “Naomi Judd had lived for years on a farm in the hills above Franklin, Tenn., a suburb of Nashville”

So why did does the Wikipedia state she died at her home in Nashville, when she didn’t have a home there or reside there? Paige Matheson (talk) 16:53, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

---Hello, I fixed the location on the "Personal Life" section and reused the reliable source from the infobox about her death location. Hopefully, this works! - Truly yours, Aubreeprincess (talk) 04:29, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
