Talk:Carol Burnett

message: Perhaps I overlooked it, but I didn't see any mention of Burnett's recording career in the article. I'm not an expert on Burnett, but I know she recorded 4-5 albums of show tunes for major American recording labels, and participated in some cast recordings. Seems like an important aspect of her work in the 1960s. 157.131.199.252 (talk) 01:33, 10 July 2019‎

message: I was unable to find mention of Carol Burnett being on the game show, "What's My Line?," as the Mystery Guest, and this is usually done with other Comedians. 
Carol Burnett, was on "What's My Line?" at least four different dates as the Mystery Guest, 5/7/1961, 12/17/1961, 2/16/1964, and 3/20/1966. 
One can find these on YouTube, and they were very well done, as was Lucille Ball's appearances on the show.Easeltine (talk) 18:07, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Carol Burnett on "What's My Line?" 

message: I thought everything would work out but apparently I only got 50% there. Under the litigation portion from the menu there was a citation needed template. I cited the entry directly from the court document dismissing the second suit from the website containing the entire ruling. As much as I have tried to learn how to handle the template on my own, I find it awkward and cumbersome. The reference appears to be appropriately added but it didn't remove the citation needed tag. When I attempted to add the needciteremove tag it put me into a loop of redirects that I can't follow. This is the type of thing that caused me to stop editing some 15 years ago. This should be a simple task, but I am forced to come to the talk page to beg for help. My best guess is that there is a project page created by the citeneeded template. The redirect is lacking information that could easily be included. So any help would be appreciated. --SlimJimTalk
:, in wikitext, you just highlight and delete the maintenance tag. (If you use Visual Editor, I don't know how it's done.) I've removed it. Schazjmd (talk) 14:01, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

message: @FlightTime Hello, I don't think "groundbreaking" is impartial or neutral language. I am not discrediting her as an "OG of female comedy", it's about the fact that "groundbreaking" sounds more like something I'd see in ad. Like it has the same energy has "took the world by storm". Also, what 'ground' did it 'break'? Is it being a milestone by being one of the first women to host a comedy-variety show? Or was it something specific about the show itself? I get that the first paragraph on an article doesn't tend to get into all the specifics immediately but the phrasing as is just is not clear and "groundbreaking" just really doesn't fit the tone of a wikipedia article.

replies: text: First of all, thanx for opening a discussion. I see your point, do you have any objections to waiting and see if other page watchers have any input? If not, I have no problem with you reverting my edit (maybe reference this thread in your edit summary). The discussion will still be here.
