:Well, whatever GQ say, clearly drowning, or being drowned, in Bette and Tina's pool is highly symbolic. Discussion of what it symbolises might be fruitful. I don't have a clue, lol, especially if Jenny is Chaiken (but I'm sure the identity doesn't go that far). Otoh, Chaiken was mocked and accused of being a bit of a bully and stealing the show from Abbot and Greenberg after season 1, wasn't she?

In this entry there’s a reference to Max taking hormone me blockers. Unless there’s a specific show reference, Max would have taken testosterone like most people assigned female at birth do when they have hormone therapy, not hormone blockers which are common among people assigned male at birth.

Most Hated character Poll
[edit]The fact that Jenny's character was voted the most hated in the L word comes hand-to-hand with the decision of the creators to take fan feedback for the last season. It's important to have the line included in an article as it helped decide the character's fate. I suggest conducting a discussion here on what should stay or not of that sentence. Whatever POV was compromised on the sentence has been considered. If a consensus isn't reached a Third Opinion will be requested. --TLW (talk) 22:20, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
WWJD?
[edit]I have added a section to Jenny's article on the now defunct blog What Would Jenny Do?. If anyone can find reference to the blog online it would greatly benefit the article's citations. Unfortunately OurChart.com has been merged to SHO.com and I guess most of the information hosted on the site is now permanently gone. --TLW (talk) 03:13, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Second & Third Season?
[edit]shouldnt someone put her second and third season?
- Although Jenny's storyline is far more rich in the first season, part of the storyline involving those seasons has been added to the article. The fourth season should also be added. However, one should wait and see how it develops as there isn't much to say about her so far in it. --TLW 08:02, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
About The Jenny/Dana Link
[edit]Donnabella posted this question under Jenny's Chart thumbnail:
Didn't they have an awkward foreplay in the first season after which they mutually agreed that they were an awful match?
- In fact, they did. But someone argued in Dana's article discussion page that they should not be connected because they didn't have anything. I was just making clear that the connection is based on the fact that 1) Jenny and Dana were connected on the Chart displayed at the end of episode 3.12 and 2) Jenny herself commented about the awkward hookup in episode 3.11. --TLW 04:27, 27 February 2007 (UTC).
- By heteronormative standards, that someone in the Dana Talk page (which I couldn't find, btw) is absolutely right. None of their friends seemed aware of it without Jenny's comment. Donnabella 22:51, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- OK... I'll upload the chart for you within this talk page --TLW 03:21, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- --TLW 03:59, 2 March 2007 (UTC).
Fair use rationale for Image:Jenny 800x600.jpg
[edit]Image:Jenny 800x600.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Any stats on the anti-Jenny lobby?
[edit]In the special features for the Season 4 DVDs, a lot of the fan writers mention identifying with Jenny, with two disclaimers: 1) she's a writer, and 2) even though all (*asterisk) the fans hate her. I'm also wondering how much Jenny is an alter ego of Ilene Chaiken? Factually there are some important differences (Jenny Schechter never worked on Fresh Prince) but as far as personality? Donnabella (talk) 00:55, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
New
[edit]I gave the article a make over and it's better not to go crazy and expand the storyline section out again. Plenty of real world info thrown in there. That's how the others should look like, so L word fans, you know what to do. LolRAIN the ONE (Talk) 19:30, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
major cleanup
[edit]This article is embarrassingly bad and gramatically incorrect. I don't have time to clean it up right now, but it desperately needs it. Carrie1113 (talk) 02:17, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

- Character development
"Jenny is based on series creator Ilene Chaiken's past experiences from when she was younger" begs the questions What experiences? and What aspects of Jenny?DoneNew York Magazine, not Magazine New York.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:19, 26 November 2010 (UTC) Done"Throughout her duration Jenny went on a journey which saw her transform into a selfish egotist and many observers have perceived her as a narcissist" comma follwing duration and journey.DoneWhere is the leading quote for "They also observe her as looking fabulous, fun, and sexy but her downfall is her annoying side." Also comma after sexy if you don't want to make it a new sentence.Done"whiny egomaniac" periodDoneOf her character's changes after season five commaDoneResponding to the criticism Jenny has received comma--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:50, 26 November 2010 (UTC) Done
- Storylines
Please spell out and link MFA.DoneIs Iowa affiliated with the University of Iowa in this use. If so, please link and spell that out.Done- Lets write this all in a constant tense. I guess I would prefer past.
- Comment - As the storylines are discussing the fiction taking place, it's meant to be present tense, as it can happen over and over again. If it was put in past tense, it would therefore suggest these things happened to Jenny, making her seem like a living person.RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 17:45, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
"She won a major literary award and has had one of her short stories published, she meets a man named Tim Haspel (Eric Mabius) who she moves to Los Angeles to start a new life with." should be split into two sentences or conjoined with a conjunction after correction for tense.DoneI think the story lines should clarify which season each thing happened. I would dedicate one paragraph to each season and say which season was which.Done"She becomes best friends with Shane when Tim moves out, she moves in with her."split or conjoin DoneJenny starts having flashbacks of her childhood where it is revealed she was sexually abused.Probably change where to in which. DoneJenny starts writing another book and writing classes to improve. This sentence is not conjoined in parallel structure because writing is two different parts of speach in these two uses. The way it is currently constructed both clauses are dependent upon the noun-verb Jenny starts with the meaning the same as the following: Jenny starts writing another book, and Jenny starts writing classes to improve. However, proper construction in my mind would be Jenny starts writing another book and taking writing classes to improve, which would have the same meaning as Jenny starts writing another book, and Jenny starts taking writing classes to improve. I think the latter is better. You may also want to say what she was trying to improve.Done"and when she finds out the truth" should be preceded with a comma and she should be replaced with Jenny.DoneShe meets Moira Sweeney (Daniela Sea) who is transitioning into a male. comma before whoDone"Marina briefly returns during the play and Jenny realises she is over her" split or comma before and.DoneSplit or conjoin "Jenny becomes more unbalanced when she adopts a dog to get close to a vet, she later has the dog put down and begins dating the woman as part of her plan to ruin her girlfriend."DoneLooks good, but "pretending to be distraught" should be at the beginning of the sentence so it can modify Jenny rather than down. Start as "Pretending to be distraught, Jenny. . ."DoneWhilst filming comma.DoneSimilarly, "Whilst on a camping trip,"DoneSplit or conjoin "She hires Adele Channing as her personal assistant, she then starts a relationship with the films biggest star Niki Stevens (Kate French)."DoneO.K. but "biggest star Niki Stevens" needs a comma after star.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 23:40, 28 November 2010 (UTC) DoneSplit or conjoin "Adele later films them having sex, Niki who . . ."DoneSplit or conjoin "She stands down and asks Niki to join her, the split when she doesn't join her." Also the -> they,.DoneComma after interrogated "They are interrogated and Alice ends up in jail for murder."--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:44, 26 November 2010 (UTC) Done"They begin a relationship, Jenny later ends it."split or conjoin Done"Helena later finds out that Jenny revealed Dylan the truth, this makes Helena desperate for revenge on her old friend." needs to be split or conjoined and the first part seems ungrammatical.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 23:06, 28 November 2010 (UTC) Done
- Reception
"They also describe" is odd because it is a pronoun whose referent is in another paragraph. Don't begin a paragraph with a pronoun referring to a prior para.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:15, 27 November 2010 (UTC) Done
- I shall now begin making the corrections.RAIN..the..ONE HOTLINE 16:54, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
I am going to pass this without the formality of the GA Checklist.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:05, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
