Talk:Ann-Margret

message: In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article Gay icon to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article Gay icon and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much. Philwelch 20:02, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: I have no idea why the Flintstones image is so large, but for some reason I'm unable to resize it using the usual coding. If anyone can resize it to be closer to the 200px intended, please do so. 23skidoo 05:46, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Flintstones image 

message: I hope people like this 1976 color photograph that I have added to the article.  Do you think it's too large ?   I believe adding it is necessary because it conveys her sexy, garishly clad image that she had after recovering from the accident but before she stopped dancing.  I have permission from the copyright holder.  I specified that when I uploaded the image to Wikipedia.  To learn more about how I got the photo, read the "Upload Application."  Or does someone want me to put it here, too ?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dooyar (talk • contribs) 02:50, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Image of Ann-Margret On NBC In 1976 

message: The Trivia section has too many uncited/unsourced items. I have removed one completely: *Oprah Winfrey's head was put on a old picture of Ann-Margret's body on a TV Guide cover, causing a big stir. Huh? When? Is there a source for this? Also, I will delete the Wings item as it also provides no citation or other information to support it. 23skidoo 14:15, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Unsourced trivia

message: I think this article needs some expansion into her storied affair with Elvis Presley.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.145.59.90 (talk) 16:12, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Not necessarily, this is not a gossip column. PatGallacher (talk) 22:14, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

text: Agreed, there really needs to be something about Elvis here.  I'd say it's pretty significant  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.220.139.211 (talk) 13:37, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Personal Life

message: The statement that she grew up close to the Arctic Circle is sourced, but still far from the truth. Valsjöbyn is situated at 64.068° N, 14.136° E (:sv:Valsjöbyn) but the Arctic Circle is 66.56° N or 276 km further to the north. The statement is relevant as a quote, how she described her upbringing, but not as a geographic fact. Perhaps this distinction could be made more clear. --LA2 20:09, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Sourced non-sense

message: The article contradicts itself about her birthplace.  When I challenged this I got a response that this is cleary sourced in her autobiography, but I don't see mention of her autobiography in the article.  Can someone clarify? PatGallacher (talk) 22:14, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Birthplace

message: If you're a confirmed user, then you can see a great color photo of her that someone deleted from the article in 2008.  The current version of the article provides a link to the image even though the image itself isn't visible.  Scroll down to the 1970s section and you'll see the link on the left side.  If you're a confirmed user, can you please look at it and consider restoring it?  I'm not a confirmed user, but I recall distinctly seeing the image in this article two years ago.  What copyright issues, if any, were behind the deletion of it?  It's a production still from her 1975 NBC television special.  The caption says the show aired in 1976.  As a devoted fan, I happen to know it was 1975.  The first TV special she did after recovering from her accident. 
The current version of the article probably will change later today (November 17).  If it has changed by the time you read this, please see my version of the article from November 17 and then, if you are confirmed, you can see the great photo. Let's restore it!  Thanking you in advance for your attention.Photodouble (talk) 22:35, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Great color photo of her

message: Ann Margret is filming an episode of "Army Wives" for Lifetime today 3/29/10. Someone may want to add this.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.76.13.20 (talk) 16:33, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Better photo anyone? 

message: Please change location of birth from Stockholm, to Valsjöbyn.
Stockholm is the capital of Sweden, but Ann-Marget was born in the small village Valsjöbyn in the middle of Sweden.

text: Birth place was changed from Valsjöbyn to Stockholm by an anonymous and unsourced edit 19 May 2009. There are already references in the article to sources where her birth place is stated. Also, the Swedish wiki says Valsjöbyn with sources. I'll try stitch it together. David A se (talk) 17:26, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: As it stands now the article says she was married to Roger Smith 1967 d. 2017, which hints they were divorced in 2017. So I put in "his death" instead of "d." and it was equally awkward. So I reverted. I have seen other Wikipedia articles in which the phrase "his death' or "her death" are used. Can someone smarter than I am change it?Closedthursday (talk) 19:19, 26 July 2017 (UTC)

message: The sources cited in this article are largely fake or otherwise non-trustworthy.  Some of the citations point to web sites and / or publications that someone just threw up.  And I'm being nice.  73.6.96.168 (talk) 13:16, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

message: It's normal that the article's name comes first in bold type in the first line of the lead. I see no reason to make an exception here. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 13:55, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: For biographical articles, I think it's proper, or at least acceptable, to start the lead sentence with the subject's full birth name. See for example Petrarch and Cleopatra which are used as an example in MOS:LEADBIO. Also Madonna, Will Rogers, and Gary Glitter. CodeTalker (talk) 17:23, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for using the talk page which none of the others involved have bothered with! I suppose the article-name-fist policy is no longer valid. I really thought it was. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 11:10, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
