Talk:Sarah Kendzior

Notability looks established
The assertion by User: Bueller 007 in the change-log (when notability template was inserted) that "there's really nothing in this article establishing her notability" seems absurd. There's this article by Helen Jung in Cosmopolitan: The by-line of the article is not Kendzior, and she is clearly the focus of the nontrivial coverage in the article (which uses her voice but is not under her byline). And there's no evidence that Cosmopolitan fails to be "independent" of her. A prominent magazine such as Cosmopolitan does profile just anybody, just any non-notable person, the way they did for Kendzior. --Presearch (talk) 19:36, 5 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Furthermore, in the St. Louis Public Radio KWMU-1 interview with Don Marsh cited as
 * Marsh in the first minutes states in his opening words that "Saint Lous journalist Sarah Kendzior has become something of a media sensation in recent years," and a few seconds later, recounts that in the pre-recorded interview, "I began by asking how she explains her relatively sudden national celebrity". Again, it's clear that there is non-trivial focus on the individual who is the focus of this Wikipedia article.
 * Unless I hear meaningful counter-arguments, in a few days I anticipate I will remove the notability template (although it would still be good for others to further expand the article). --Presearch (talk) 19:49, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Date of birth
I added a date of birth based on Kendzior being the source of A Thought for the Day on A Word A Day (see citation in infobox and here). That daily newsletter and website takes a quote from someone whose birthday it is. If there is a better source, I hope someone will find it. --Prairieplant (talk) 07:42, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Her own book is a better source, but it’s not exact. She’s clear in this book (her most recent) about where she lives. --2600:6C40:7400:1D7C:2CF5:A276:2500:C945 (talk) 11:55, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks but I removed the birth date. Per WP:BLP, a good reliable source is needed for such details. Someones thoughts on a word for the day are irrelevant for this kind of thing, and the claim about the book is challenged by conflicting data. You might quote the text from the book so others can perhaps find it in a Google search. Johnuniq (talk) 05:25, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

“... claim about the book is challenged by conflicting data”? What does this refer to? What data? Is a to-the-sentence citation of her book about her own birthday a reliable source? --2600:6C40:7400:1D7C:A1C3:4DE3:BEB2:66D5 (talk) 20:43, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

This reads like an extended press release, if not love letter to its subject. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.132.165 (talk) 04:31, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
