== Prejean breast implant controversy ==

the fact that the pageant paid for her breast implants weeks before the pageant should be added to the page:

A few weeks prior to the Miss USA pageant, Prejean received free breast implants paid for by the Miss California pageant committee. The co-director of the Miss California pageant said "We assisted when Carrie came to us and voiced the interest in having the procedure done, we want to put her in the best possible confidence in order to present herself in the best possible light on a national stage."<ref>http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/05/01/miss-californias-breast-i_n_194385.html</ref>

== Public death threat ==
== Sex Tape Scandal ==


This is, in part, why people don't trust Wikipedia - the most determined win. Every reference to the sex tape scandal (which was significant in her settlement and has a number of valid citations, not TMZ) gets deleted. Since it's probably half of why people have even heard of her, why is it continually removed?
Why is this not notable? [[User:The Squicks|The Squicks]] ([[User talk:The Squicks|talk]]) 19:54, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

==Miss USA controversy==


==2007 CA pageant==
Let's try to keep this neutral and well sourced, people. [[User:Exploding Boy|Exploding Boy]] ([[User talk:Exploding Boy|talk]]) 06:27, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


I fixed a dead link regarding her performance in the 2007 CA pageant. I couldn't find a credible source saying that she was originally 3rd runner up and then promoted to 1st runner up in 2007 CA pageant. They all look like sources that could have gotten that info from Wikipedia... So I had to change the text. Please fix it if you can find something... [[User:Tdferro|Tdferro]] ([[User talk:Tdferro|talk]]) 04:01, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
:That means things like the comments about Alan Duncan too: According to this source [http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/matthew-bell-the-iiosi-diary-1674262.html], Duncan made an offhand remark during the taping of a TV comedy show. He joked,


== Contract termination and Same-sex marriage ==
<blockquote>"If you read that Miss California had been murdered you'll know it was me, won't you?" He later said "I'm sure she's very beautiful and that if we were to meet we would love each other. I have no plans to kill her."</blockquote>


Did her views on same-sex marriage have anything to do with her contract termination? The section mentions Trump talking about her views on it without giving any context, which makes it seem out of place.

:This is akin to taking comments clearly intended as funny or satirical made on a show like, say, Saturday Night Live, and reporting them as news. It's inappropriate, unencyclopedic, and frankly, if reported as fact, bordering on slanderous.


== External links modified ==
:To make it absolutely clear: Alan Duncan did not threaten Carrie Prejean's life. He made an offhand remark on a TV comedy show trying to get a laugh. It's barely newsworthy, and it's certainly not encyclopedia-worthy. [[User:Exploding Boy|Exploding Boy]] ([[User talk:Exploding Boy|talk]]) 15:07, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
::::::::To make it absolutely clear: This is ONLY Exploding Boy's opinion. It is NOT fact.

===Section break: responding to Rico's concerns===


Cheers.—[[User:InternetArchiveBot|'''<span style="color:darkgrey;font-family:monospace">InternetArchiveBot</span>''']] <span style="color:green;font-family:Rockwell">([[User talk:InternetArchiveBot|Report bug]])</span> 06:25, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
'''Rico asked''': Why is it notable that "Hilton called Prejean's answer 'the worst in pageant history,'"? Is Hilton a pageant historian?

'''My view''': He may not be a pageant historian, but he was a judge in the relevant contest and is a central figure in the controversy, whose widely-reported remarks (including this one) form a central part of the controversy. It's a statement that could never be substantiated, it's hyperbolic, and it certainly does Hilton's credibility no favours; nevertheless, it's what he said. We're not reporting it as fact (and it was never presented as such in the article): only as the opinion and widely reported statement of one of the controversy's central figures.

'''Rico asked''': Then why isn't it in there that Hilton called Carrie Prejean a "dumb bitch," or does that expose Hilton for what he is, rather than paint him as a thoughtful peron?

'''My view''': Largely because one editor doesn't want it there and has made it clear he will remove any mention of it on sight. I think it should be there: again, it's a large part of the controversy, it's what was said, it's what many commentators were responding to. As you say, it doesn't do Hilton's credibility any favours.

'''Rico asked''': Why is it notable that, "He stated that "There are various other ways she could have answered that question and still stayed true to herself without alienating millions of people'" -- or do we just want that idea in there?

'''My view''': Several reasons: first of all, it's what he said. Second, he and his supporters are claiming that this, rather than her opinion about marriage, is the reason he gave her a low score, while Prejean and her supporters claim otherwise. Third, this remark was part of the controversy. And fourth, it was widely reported.

'''Rico asked''': So we quote his groundless opinion, and then the substantiation that doesn't substantiate it?

'''My view''': the entire issue is based on opinion. His opinion is relevant since he was a judge in the pageant and since (it's being claimed) it was the low score he awarded her in response to his question that lost her the crown. In any case, it's not up to us to decide whether or not anyone's opinion is groundless or to prove their opinion right or wrong, only to report the facts.

This is actually the central problem in this whole dispute: the controversy is entirely based on the personal opinions, comments and actions of its primary figures: He said this, she said that; he said something then recanted it then said something worse, and on and on. The incident really isn't encyclopedic at all, but it's in the news currently and people want to report on it. So, the problem becomes how to report on this unencyclopedic event in an encyclopedic way. Fortunately, we have established guidelines: we present both sides of the story neutrally, factually (based on reliable sources), and with equal weight, and we don't attempt to draw conclusions for our readers or lead them to any judgement.

Phrasing the controversy as "Hilton made some negative remarks, then Prejean said A, B, C, D and E" is not giving equal weight. If we're going to report on the incident at all, we should be reporting what actually happened and allowing readers to draw their own conclusions. [[User:Exploding Boy|Exploding Boy]] ([[User talk:Exploding Boy|talk]]) 20:22, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

*Actually, the "he said, she said" part of it isn't that far off of balanced. (And "dumb bitch" doesn't belong there any more than "fascist" does -- I think Hilton's point comes across without it.) In my opinion, the major unbalance actually comes with the next paragraph, which is a short rundown of criticisms of Hilton, but nowhere are the references to people other than Hilton who criticized Prejean -- and there were quite a few. -- [[User:ArglebargleIV|ArglebargleIV]] ([[User talk:ArglebargleIV|talk]]) 21:46, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

===What prominence should any remarks be given?===
I just restored the removal of Hilton's remarks about the immediate controversy. I'm not going to re-restore them if they're deleted again, because I am NOT going to get into an edit war, but I hope that at least there will be discussion before they're touched.<br/>The remarks are fairly short, free of obscenity, referenced, and if Prejean's comments about what happened are going to be in here, which they should, at least having Hilton's views which she is partially responding to provides balance.<br/>
This article is here neither to bash Prejean or to promote her -- it's to describe who she is, why she is notable, and what happened to her. For a major controversy in her life such as this, its important to be balanced and present both sides, letting the reader form opinions on her own. -- [[User:ArglebargleIV|ArglebargleIV]] ([[User talk:ArglebargleIV|talk]]) 21:57, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
::There is a long discussion on the BLP incident page that talks about this exact topic: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Civility_break Carrie Prejean].--[[User:InaMaka|InaMaka]] ([[User talk:InaMaka|talk]]) 22:27, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

:I personally believe that Hilton's awful comments about b----, c---, and so on should be kept. The fact that he reacted in such a vocal manner is a direct and notable part of the whole controversy.
:As far as Prejean is concerned, I would say that- if anything- such attacks by Perez Hilton would make her seem '''better of'''. After all, her being attacked by Perez is like [[Ralph Nader]] angrily calling [[Barack Obama]] a 'negro' (naturally, your empathy goes out to Obama).

==Comments left on my talk page that should have been here==

Hi, I'm asking you to discuss any proposed changes you would like to make to the Miss USA 2009 controversy section of the Carrie Prejean article on that article's talk page. There is a discussion already going on there that you should join. Please do not make wholesale reversions or reinsert questionable information without discussing first. [[User:Exploding Boy|Exploding Boy]] ([[User talk:Exploding Boy|talk]]) 00:59, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
:Nothing that I have inserted is questionable. Exploding Boy keeps removing the comments of Prejean and limiting the discussion of the Miss USA controversy to the obviously demented viewpoint of Hilton only. This article is about PREJEAN and she should be given an opportunity to respond to Hilton's negative, hate-mongering comments. Dear Exploring Boy, do not remove the fully reliably sourced, notable comments of Prejean about the controversy in which Projean is the main character. Otherwise the article biased.--[[User:InaMaka|InaMaka]] ([[User talk:InaMaka|talk]]) 01:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

::I left the comment on your talk page to ensure you saw it and because it is directed at you. I'm still asking you to discuss proposed changes.

::I have not been removing Prejean's comments at all, but please be aware that there is no function of Wikipedia that allows it to be used as a forum for article subjects to respond to comments made about them. Our goal here is to provide '''relevant''', '''encyclopedic''' information '''neutrally'''. That means we give both sides equal space and make no judgements. This section is getting far too long as it is: it's threatening to take over the entire article, and most of it can probably be trimmed back considerably.

::Note that, while I don't necessarily agree with how it's been done (InaMaka and TharsHammer are both now technically in violation of [[WP:3RR]] on this talk page), it's a good point that both the original anonymous comment and InaMaka's edit summary violate [[WP:CIVIL]]. Similarly, the original comment isn't really related to improving the article.

::::Calling all Mormoms stupid is a fascist comment and I will continue to point that out and I will not apologize and I will not stop.

Yes, one little tiny pieces was a productive comment, but you could picked up that line of thought and attributed to yourself. You did not need to repeat the fascist comments also. Look if you want to be productive, then be productive but re-inserting the fascist comments is not helpful and with Exploding Boy assisting you re-inserting these fascist comments it makes me wonder if you are the sockpuppet or if Exploding Boy is or if you are one in the same. Why do you (or Exploding Boy for that matter) feel the need to re-insert the nasty, fascist, narrow-minded stuff??? Why not just more forward with the one, little, tiny productive question that was asked??? I will remove it again and I will call it fascist again and I will not apologize.

The fact that you feel the need to re-insert comments that clearly violate BLP AND your undying defense that the information MUST be on this talk page just because the anon sockpuppet asked one little, tiny question with any relevance at all.

In addition to my other admin posts, I'd like to remind everyone that Wikipedia is not a [[WP:BATTLEGROUND|battleground]]. We are here to write a neutral article, not fight over Prejean's statements, Hilton's statements, or gay marriage. So, no more inserting of problematic talk page edits, no more calling editors fascists, and no more incivility.

==Remarks by Alan Duncan==

This section really does not belong in this article. As far as I can tell, she has never even responded to them; we don't need to include everything anyone has ever said about a person in the article about them, and his comments are discussed in his article already.

== Perez Hilton ==

Perez Hilton is the sort of person who incurs extremely strong and polarized reactions from people, either positive or negative.
But that is ''no excuse'' to call him anything or to accuse him of anything. He '''[[WP:BLP|is a 'living person']]''' and talk pages are not the place for this kind of bashing. He is not a ____ or whatever word one would like to call him. [[User:The Squicks|The Squicks]] ([[User talk:The Squicks|talk]]) 23:38, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

a

omission?

[edit]

Why is there no mention of the sexually-oriented video that ended Prejean's lawsuits against pageant officials? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.185.225.247 (talk) 04:07, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is mentioned at the bottom of the article. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 04:30, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Does Carrie still believe in Christianity? I don't see this in this article anymore. WikiPro1981X (talk) 23:34, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sex Tape Scandal

[edit]

This is, in part, why people don't trust Wikipedia - the most determined win. Every reference to the sex tape scandal (which was significant in her settlement and has a number of valid citations, not TMZ) gets deleted. Since it's probably half of why people have even heard of her, why is it continually removed?

I'd wager that if she was ever noteworthy enough to appear in Britannica, they'd mention it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.237.201.126 (talk) 21:25, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's mentioned on the Sex Tape page - I clicked the link to this page, and no mention of it ? - 124.191.144.183 (talk) 14:47, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2007 CA pageant

[edit]

I fixed a dead link regarding her performance in the 2007 CA pageant. I couldn't find a credible source saying that she was originally 3rd runner up and then promoted to 1st runner up in 2007 CA pageant. They all look like sources that could have gotten that info from Wikipedia... So I had to change the text. Please fix it if you can find something...

Contract termination and Same-sex marriage

[edit]

Did her views on same-sex marriage have anything to do with her contract termination? The section mentions Trump talking about her views on it without giving any context, which makes it seem out of place. 50.157.104.147 (talk) 16:10, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
