WikiProject Biography Summer 2007 Assessment Drive

The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. -- Yamara 22:10, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

I have moved the following sentences from the main article to the talk page. If the speculation can be substantiated, then it may belong in the article. Lbbzman 13:25, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Morales will likely take over for Ann Curry full time on the newsdesk at the end of 2005. Morales may take over for Katie Couric as co-host of the Today show sometime in the future.

Admin rollback of content change

An edit war has emerged over the career start date of the subject, specifically whether it was 2003 or 2006. I am dismayed to observe there has been no attempt to discuss the matter on the talk page. I have restored the content to its state prior to this edit war.

All parties are advised to discuss the matter on this page before making any further changes, and especially before engaging in an edit war. Please also read the WP:3RR policy in case you are not familiar with it. Manning (talk) 15:35, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Career Start date

Natalie Started as a Correspondent and Sub anchor, But she didn't Permanently join until Late 2005-Early 2006. Here is her Biography on Today Show Website: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/3080436/http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/3080436/ JoMontNW (talk) 15:47, 16 February 2011 (UTC)Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).[reply]

Someone put that she had 3 kids and put Bobby (2014), can someone change that please? She only has 2 and neither are named Bobby 184.9.91.82 (talk) 18:08, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done - the edit was unsourced and named a child supposedly born in 2014 in an edit made in 2013. Arjayay (talk) 18:34, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Newer Photo of Natalie Morales

Hi since I am not sure how to and having problems could someone please update the Image of Natalie Morales with this Photo? this is form september of this year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Newer_Photo_of_NBC_Natalie_Morales.jpg Morningtv13 (talk) 02:13, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not done The file is a clear copyright violation of an image found at Getty Images here. It has been flagged for deletion. Dwpaul ^Talk 04:18, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay I understand. I do think a new photo of Natalie should be posted. Morningtv13 (talk) 05:17, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Career Timeline

Why can't this page have a Career Timeline on it? Many other wiki Pages on Journalists have therm. Morningtv13 (talk) 19:54, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:OTHERSTUFF. Merely because another article or group of articles have a particular characteristic doesn't mean it should be reproduced here (and the argument you are using will usually fail immediately). A timeline is mostly appropriate when there is insufficient information to populate a description (in prose) of someone's career. In this case, everything that appears in your timeline is already described in the Career section of the article, making a separate timeline redundant and excessive. Its value to the article is certainly great not enough to justify your edit warring over it (and I know this has been explained to you before, as this is not new behavior for you). You would have been well advised to have started this conversation here after the first or second revert rather than persistently repeating the edit. Dwpaul ^Talk 21:05, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. It's completely redundant. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 02:46, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please can someone remove it, it's redundant, and the user who's just added it has a COI and has been reported to WP:AN3 for edit warring. Joseph2302 (talk) 02:49, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
