Talk:Parminder Nagra

message: Hi!
Just noticed the use of the phrase East Indian (one I noticed among people in my time in Vancouver, doubtless the result of not learning the term First Nations when referring to the native peoples of Canada...) 
To clarify for those outside North America - for whom the thought of the Punjab being in eastern India would sound a bit odd - I altered the term to Indian.
Pedantic, I know... --Nerroth 01:04, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it's not pedantic...you're just trying for accuracy, that's all. I personally would use the term "east Asian Indian" or (preferably) "sub-continent Indian", for total clarity. -- Jalabi99 03:45, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

text: You're correct, Nerroth: the term "Indian" should be fine...but, even though the user population of Wikipedia is international, it is predominantly American (aka United States) and Americans are in general terribly geographically ignorant. So you have to spell things out for them at times :) -- Jalabi99 03:20, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I would have thought her name to actually mean "supreme lord (and not goddess), princess", because "parminder" would be "paramendra" in Sanskrit...--Grammatical error 16:32, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "Supreme goddess" is what she has repeatedly said in interviews as the meaning of her name.  --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 19:10, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps I'm just being pedantic, as Sikh names are largely ambiguous in relation to gender. --Grammatical error 20:17, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The traditional Sikh middle name for females, Kaur, doesn't mean Princess. It means Lioness (whereas the male version, Singh, means Lion). 72.137.224.24 09:34, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

text: the wikipedia article on kaur says that it means princess, yet it means lioness here? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.180.13.178 (talk) 14:02, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi,
The Parminder Online site seems to be closed... --Nerroth 22:37, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: POL is down for good apparently, but an equally good replacement, Parminder Nagra Online, is up. Seems strange that up to now, Parminder has no "official" web presence, but these fansites are doing a very good job of keeping her fans (me!) informed. -- Jalabi99 17:58, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

message: This article reads like a personal promotion for ms. Nagra. An editor named "Naresuan" apparently appeared on 29 September 2004, and except for four minor edits to the Lexus article, almost exclusively edited this article up to 12 August 2005... Most of the current format seems to originate from this person. Perhaps an overzealous agent, manager or family member.
Needs a major rewrite, proper sourcing and probably requires a fair bit of removing of the 'fuzzy' PR'ish language to bring it up to wikipedia standards. -- MiG (talk) 20:49, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I believe Nagra's character in ER (Neela Rasgothra) left in the most recently aired episode, should this line be removed, or changed to "most recently starred in..."? Fooboograss (talk) 11:57, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Currently stars" in the first paragraph should be removed or changed  

message: This article has been tagged for years without any of the specific, requested citations being added. It is irresponsible that uncited claims of a personal nature have been left up for so long. As the years-old tag at the head of this article demonstrates, this article has been in gross violation of Wikipedia's core policies about biographies of living people. I've just commented-out some of the more egregious violative material here, but WP:BLP says it can simply be removed. --Tenebrae (talk) 22:11, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

message: I edited the article to match Wikipedia formats, I also removed the tag, the only thing the article needs is more references. (Monkelese (talk) 22:02, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
