Talk:Anne Morrow Lindbergh

message: The layout of the article is somewhat non-standard. When I tried to standardize it, it was reverted.
For example, for no obvious reason, there are mixed "notes" in differing formats; one is "assigned" the other float, like most articles. There is confusion about the use of "bibliography" which the standard suggests avoiding for that reason. Therefore Anne's name is needlessly assigned to one subsection, though the standard says not to use the article name in subsections. And here, it is easy to avoid. WP:OWNERSHIP seems to be at stake here. Student7 (talk) 01:02, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It's an unusual article as the subject is a well known author whose work encompasses a lengthy bibliography of her own works. The use of bibliographical notation is commonplace as wiki authors establish notes to readers typically with citations, that are markedly different from the traditional "footnote" or "endnote". The reworking of the reference section was based on the Modern Language Association Style Guide and Harvard citation styles, a decision made when the original citations were not following any consistent format. There is a very obvious, oblique "note to the reader" established by previous editors, and there was no way to incorporate the note as a direct reference as it was more about the publisher's motivation for writing an article, and not as much about the subject of the article. When reviewing other long-standing work, as much care as possible should be directed to keeping the original "voice" and intent of the article. The confusion over which Lindbergh is being indicated, led the submitters (note plural) to state whether it is Anne or Charles that is being noted, and in the first instance as she is Anne Morrow, it was likely the use of her first name was to differentiate from other Morrows. This article was only recently (re-)discovered. Check the edit log as to submissions, and if you feel that your work is being deprecated for no reason, more discussion needs to take place. FWiW, since the use of similar terminology occurs, a more effusive note is being added to the section on referencing sources, but perhaps your "external bibliography" can work although there may be some reluctance to use a term that is in use in "External links", a "pointer" usually to an electronic or digital source. At least one item in the list of sources has not been used, but will likely be cited in due course. Bzuk (talk) 08:26, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

message: What proof do we have that she kept the middle name Spencer after marriage? Books say AML so maybe she substituted her maiden name as her new middle name. Or was her common name a pen name and not her legal one which no longer had Morrow in it? --Ranze (talk) 04:02, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

message: In the sections "return to U.S." and "Later Years and death" are two allegations of affairs which she allegedly had, but cannot be proven. Wikipedia seems to suffer from anonymous authors who want to tear down famous people with accusations like this, based on what "someone" said.

message: What is the Wikipedia convention regarding names within an article about a married woman? 
Several passages in this article are confusing because of the way names are used.  For example, consider the following sentence:
Lindbergh's speeches and writings reflected the influence of Nazi views on race and religion. 
Since the subject of the article is Anne Morrow Lindbergh, I expected that any sentence that uses the name Lindbergh by itself must concern Anne.  (For example, in the article John Quincy Adams, whenever "Adams" is used by itself it refers to JQA, not his father John Adams.)  But the entire paragraph is as follows:
Lindbergh elucidated his beliefs about race in a Reader's Digest article in 1939, stating: "We can have peace and security only so long as we band together to preserve that most priceless possession, our inheritance of European blood, only so long as we guard ourselves against attack by foreign armies and dilution by foreign races." Lindbergh's speeches and writings reflected the influence of Nazi views on race and religion. He wrote in his memoirs that all of the Germans he met thought the country would be better off without its Jews. 
Nowhere in this paragraph is any first name given.  But the masculine pronouns make it clear that Charles, not Anne, is the subject.
Is this according to Wikipedia style?  I found it confusing. — Lawrence King (talk) 02:29, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: It is a poor choice for a subject not known for childhood accomplishments. I have changed it to a more representative image of Lindbergh as a young woman. --Animalparty! (talk) 07:24, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
