Talk:Robyn Moore (Australian voice actor)

Use of "iconic" (in quotes) ... necessarily Peacock ?
If the Spray'n'wipe commercial, which every Australian knows and most could probably sing, is referred to in multiple sources as "iconic", and it is described here as "iconic" (in quotes) and the source of the adjective is given... then haven't we moved beyond peacocking and given a culturally contextual description? It seems that this persons association with the long running advertisement is a step beyond simply doing generic and unremakable ad voice overs and the (referenced) use of "iconic" helps to show that. I don't think that there is doubt that the spray'n'wipe ad is iconic of its type. but I am not asserting even that, just that as this particular ad is a cultural phenomenon due to the jingle and that this voice over artists contribution would be her most recognisable and long lived piece of work, certainly way beyond "Blinky Bill", this term refers to the special nature and is supportable.

 * — That's a very big "if" ...
 * — The single source cited is Moore herself: it literally says "I voiced the iconic "Spray 'n Wipe" ads". So not really an independent reliable source. Can you provide some other, independent reliable sources that describe the ads as "iconic"? Mitch Ames (talk) 01:03, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't that is a big "if" at all. I doubt I have ever met anyone in Au who lived through the commercial tv era and doesn't know it. I'll bet you do. I should have said "since" rather than "if".

 * https://tonedeaf.thebrag.com/living-end-cover-one-iconic-aussie-ads-90s/ - "the ads ... involved [Paula] Duncan singing a song ...". None of the links you provided here mention Robyn Moore at all. Please read WP:SYN. Mitch Ames (talk) 05:12, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I was showing sources that affirm "iconic" as an appropriate descriptor for the advertisement in question. I don't think this is synthesis. I am not claiming that the voice-over artist who sang the song is iconic. Parsons nose (talk) 06:04, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * — Your references show that  the ads with Paula Duncan are "iconic", not that the ads that Robyn Moore voiced are iconic. So far as I can tell, there is nothing saying that they are the same ads. That's where the synthesis lies. Mitch Ames (talk) 06:30, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * OK. I misunderstood and thought we were discussing whether using "iconic" is a fair call. Perhaps there is not sufficient (or any) reference that Robyn Moore is the voice of that series of ads so I will add that. Cheers! Not sure if I got anywhere with "iconic" but now at least that part can be supported by independent references. Parsons nose (talk) 00:44, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
