WikiProject Biography Summer 2007 Assessment Drive

Could use a wider range of references and an infobox, but essentially a B.

The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. -- Yamara 13:19, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Enacted revenge on rapists
C'mon, did that really happen? Cited from a book entitled "Big Bosoms and Square Jaws", can we really trust the source? I recommend inserting a "it is rumoured" or some such qualifier before dropping that clearly outrageous statement. 74.12.72.63 06:10, 12 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Suggest "According to her own account --", to avoid WP:WEASEL -- 201.19.20.38 22:45, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The name of the book is a reference to what director Russ Meyer looked for in a leading man and woman for his films. It is a thoroughly referenced biography and certainly qualifies as a reliable source. Besides, Santana was the one who claimed she exacted revenge on her attackers. The author merely interviewed her and reported what she said. 70.241.20.100 (talk) 12:02, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Same thing with the gang '' Around this time, she formed a gang, "the Angeles," with Italian, Jewish, and Polish girls from her neighborhood.[5] In an interview with Psychotronic Video,[where?] Satana said, "We had leather motorcycle jackets, jeans and boots...and we kicked butt." ''. I seriously doubt that is true. 86.45.47.235 (talk) 10:38, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

B-Girls
The link to "b-girl" in this page links to a page about break dancing. I doubt there was much break dancing in Los Angeles in 1950 (but I may be wrong) My guess is that the term refers to a woman employed by a bar to encourage customers to spend money freely. I think this should be researched and corrected if necessary.--Outlander 12:57, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Mob ties and time as an FBI Informant
The mafiahistory website has a comprehensive and well-cited account of Tura's time as an informant against Chicago Mob from 1958-60. Surely it's appropriate to include a section in her Wikipedia biography about that time in her life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HuevoHead122 (talk • contribs) 17:39, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
