Removing “model” description in bibliography summary
A previous edit of mine where I referred to Anna Paulina as a former model has been removed, although her modeling gigs are documented and verifiable. What is the reason behind the removal? For reference, Chrissy Teigen published 3 NYTimes best-sellers for her cookbooks, but she is still referred to as “an American model and television personality”. Gisele Bündchen has several business endeavors, including in music, but is referred to as a “fashion model”.
Can someone please explain the rationale for Anna Paulina not to be referred to as a model? A2pa (talk) 20:06, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @RandomUserGuy1738 I would be most grateful if you could explain your reasoning here. Thank you! A2pa (talk) 18:08, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- model or not she's beautiful. 2600:1004:B11A:83C3:5D49:B458:20B3:1240 (talk) 03:34, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
Braddock stalking incident
I wonder if this incident deserves mention in Luna’s article, or if it would be better placed somewhere else (like in the page about the election).
Luna herself was criticized for how she handled it (specifically, her injunction mentioned two other politicians whom her stalker claimed he was conspiring with, but the other parties said they were innocent and accused Luna of defaming them). So it does seem like a controversy for Luna, not just Braddock. I’d say it belongs here; what do you think? 2604:2D80:6984:3800:0:0:0:121B (talk) 23:50, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- FYI, one of the other politicians mentioned in the above injunction was Matt Tito, who is now in the news for accusing Luna of witchcraft. So the two controversies are actually connected. 2604:2D80:6984:3800:0:0:0:7F3C (talk) 04:33, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
Conspiracy theorist category
I've removed this yet again per WP:BLPCAT and WP:CATDEFINE, A defining characteristic is one that reliable sources commonly and consistently refer to in describing the topic, such as the nationality of a person or the geographic location of a place.
ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 01:29, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
How is election denial not a defining characteristic of a conspiracy theorist any more than moon-landing deniers or 9/11 truthers are? I'm simply taking Luna at her word, that she does in fact believe what she asserts, and assigning her an appropriate category. I can't help but suspect there are ulterior motives here.

- What reliable sources call Luna a conspiracy theorist? Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 03:24, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- This neat little site called Wikipedia. You may have heard of it.
- === 2020 presidential election ===
- In June 2022, speaking about the 2020 United States presidential election in an interview with MSNBC, Luna said, "I believe that President Trump won that election, and I do believe that voter fraud occurred."[1] The previous month, Luna attended a red carpet event and screening of 2000 Mules, a film that claims to show evidence of widespread electoral fraud in the 2020 election.[1]

- We don't categorize based on single statements of belief of opinion per WP:OPINIONCAT, and attending a screening of a film does not necessarily make one a conspiracy theorist. WP:COPDEF and WP:CATDEF are based on traits that are commonly and consistently used to describe a person, not inferred or mentioned fleetingly. We don't categorize all possible traits of all subjects, and definingness has a higher threshold than mere verifiability - even more so when contentious labels are involved. --Animalparty! (talk) 07:37, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- Wikipedia isn't a reliable source, and those quotes don't call Luna a conspiracy theorist. Especially for an article about a living person, and a contentious label like "conspiracy theorist", you need to find actual reliable sources which explicitly call Luna a conspiracy theorist if you think she should be categorised as one. Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 16:37, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- Am I to understand that if a person denied the moon landing or stated that 9/11 was an inside job, they would not be categorized as a conspiracy theorist unless an outside source explicitly called them that or they held other crazy beliefs? Nokota Buck (talk) 16:59, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- Not just a reliable source saying that, but that being the common way of referring to them. That's why John Kerry isn't in the category either, despite multiple sources discussing their views on the Kennedy assassination. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:26, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Nokota Buck: Basically, yes. Barack Obama plays basketball, as mentioned in his article based on reliable sources. But we do not put him in Category:American basketball players because he is not commonly or consistently described as a basketball player, and his recreational hobbies are not central to his notability. --Animalparty!

Father incarceration
This paragraph is simply stating the same information twice, I propose it be merged into another paragraph or shortened to remove the redundancies.
The Washington Post contacted the California Department of Corrections, the Orange County Corrections Department and the Santa Ana jail, none of which had any records of incarceration for her father. When she was 10, she found his bag of meth. She claimed that her father was imprisoned multiple times for not paying child support, but The Washington Post found no records of his incarceration. With her father absent, she was raised by her mother in Los Angeles. Bsharkey (talk) 22:39, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Bsharkey See my edits, which accomplish this and help clarify. Samp4ngeles (talk) 14:10, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
WaPo - Luna’s biography on her campaign website says that throughout her childhood and teenage years, her father “spent time in and out of incarceration,” and that her communication with him during this time was “through letters to jail and collect calls.” George Mayerhofer died in a car accident in Walton County, Fla., last year, according to a statement Luna posted on Twitter. According to Monica Luna and Jolanta Mayerhofer, George Mayerhofer had several short stints in jail for not paying child support. Monica Luna said he also spent at least one year in jail for a drug-related charge. And she said he served time in Orange County. A spokesperson for the Orange County Corrections Department and the Santa Ana jail told The Post they had no records of incarceration for George Mayerhofer.
Fox - However, Luna's office easily provided Fox News Digital with Lexis-Nexis reports that show Mayerhofer did spend time behind bars. A court filing for a drug felony charged against Mayerhofer shows he was arrested and went through court proceedings in custody, and was brought back into custody for violating probation agreements. The court records show his case was dismissed.
- Quoted for clarity. starship.paint (exalt) 06:47, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- I've removed the father incarceration claim for now. While I don't think we should quote Fox News as a rebuttal to WaPo in our Wikipedia article, this does not mean that WaPo has met the burden of proof for an exceptional claim. All WaPo has reported is the absence of records that would indicate that the father was in jail. Now, what Fox News is reporting is the presence of Lexis-Nexis court records (which WaPo did not mention checking) indicating that the father was indeed in jail at some point. Furthermore, if his charge was ultimately dismissed, this may have led to lack of records about his incarceration. Or, it could be poor record-keeping. I think we should be cautious on this point, unlike the other points about the break-in and Jewish heritage where there was presence of positive testimony (from roommate, police report, relatives and photograph) to dispute the biographical claims. starship.paint (exalt) 06:47, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
George Santos 2.0
She's not even Mexican-American. Her father is of full German blood and we have no actual proof that her mother with a white sounding name has any Mexican blood. 47.146.170.94 (talk) 19:20, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
- And your point is? Everything you state above is either pure speculation ("father is of full German blood") or sounds like racist commentary ("her mother with a white sounding name"). Also, what exactly is "Mexican blood"? Mexico is a country. Mexico is not a race. More racist-sounding commentary. I suggest that everyone completely ignore the commentary above by IP editor 47.146.170.94 because it is just an old-fashioned personal attack on the subject of the article and does not add anything of value to the discussion about improving the article. -- 2601:2C6:C080:4070:214C:489:1DB8:C080 (talk) 18:08, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
Reliable sources/Noticeboard
I wanted to document here that I've started a thread on WP:Reliable sources/Noticeboard to have the news website The Floridian reviewed to determine if it is sufficiently reliable.
KD5TVI (talk) 12:22, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
Is her grandfather jewish then?
This article kind of implies that her grandfather on her father's side is jewish. Can this be made more clear? 50.45.50.60 (talk) 19:01, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
- No it doesn't. It clearly states that he is Catholic. Jon698 (talk) 22:11, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
PragerU and primary sources
While several sources are saying Luna has played up her Mexican heritage, the PragerU sentence under "Early life" reads to me like original research. The sentence is about what she says in the documentary, so PragerU is the primary source. I have not found a secondary source that describes what she says here as "falsely".
Looking more at some of the sources, what does the Northwest Florida Daily News citation have to do with Instagram influencer? And is it necessary to have the primary Maxim and Sports Illustrated sources among the cites for her modelling? 70.163.208.142 (talk) 18:41, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- What do you propose? Instant Comma (talk) 00:31, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
- At the very least, remove "falsely". The Washington Post article has several examples of Luna leaning into her Hispanic heritage, and that she was "largely apolitical" during her time at Whiteman; some are conflicting accounts and I don't care if they're mentioned.
- Unless someone has a good reason, the primary modeling sources (Sports Illustrated and Maxim) and nwfdailynews.com should go. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 02:23, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
- I got rid of "falsely." If the primary sources were the only sources for the modelling, I could see a problem. But there are secondary sources there too. Perhaps someone who understands the rules better than I could comment on this. Instant Comma (talk) 14:01, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
Central Florida Post
The Central Florida Post (May 11, 2022) has an attack article that I'm not going to link here, called "Anna Paulina Luna Has Decades Long History of Abusing Court Issued Protective Orders". It makes specific claims that might bear looking into though.
Also, the article lede calls Luna a politician and activist, but the article itself doesn't say much about her activism outside of office.
I hadn't heard of her before seeing her on TV just now, so this is all pretty new to me. 2601:644:8501:4500:0:0:0:B3A9 (talk) 19:33, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- I don't see why it should be mentioned here but not linked to.

Adding "significantly misrepresented"
@TheHetStopper: Why did you add links in this BLP article to three other BLP articles characterized as having "significantly misrepresented [their] history"? It appears to me that you want to use the Wikipedia voice to accuse Anna Paulina Luna of significantly misrepresenting her history without having to provide any supporting sources stating that she has done so. That seems like a BLP violation. -- Pemilligan (talk) 00:23, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
@Daniel Case: Could we have a discussion here instead of in an edit summary? Two concerns that I have with your comments are that I have doubts about the editor's judgment and I thought we were supposed to tske these issues more seriously with BLPs. -- Pemilligan (talk) 04:37, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

- Hello, I hope this can be non-confrontational.
- Should the main issue here be considered a matter of wording? Or a matter of which sections (like 'See also') normally need their own citations? Both might be important but...
- I understand Pemilligan may have thought I was being pointed in the phrase I used, but I would say that refutations presented in the 'Disputed biographical claims' section (along with their citations) warrant language along those lines. The fact that the *exact* phrase "significantly misrepresented" doesn't appear shouldn't inherently create an issue, at which point it becomes a matter of opinion as to what phrasing is appropriate.
- Would it be better to link to the same pages while using wording akin to "also has disputed personal history claims" or similar?
- Because asserting that these pages/subjects are not similar is suspicious in and of itself. TheHetStopper (talk) 02:53, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
