Talk:Erin Phillips

message: "Personal" section starts with this: Phillips was born on 19 May 1985 in Carlton, Victoria. She is from South Australia., while infobox has her birthplace as Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
The infobox has no sources marked while "Carlton" has two. Seems that Carlton is a suburb of Melbourne so the infobox could be true also. But then what means "She is from South Australia"? From where in South Australia? Neither Carlton or Melbourne are in South Australia, but in Victoria. 85.217.41.106 (talk) 02:07, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

message: How is she married when gay weddings are illegal in AUS? 210.50.37.79 (talk) 06:28, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia relies on what is reported in Wikipedia:Reliable sources: she is referred to in all newspaper coverage as married, so we describe her as married regardless of your personal feelings. The Drover's Wife (talk) 10:57, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a bit of bush lawyering going on! Australian editors need to remember that most readers of WP are not in Australia. For a large majority, marriage equality is legal. A good example is the USA, where it is constitutionally protected, so Phillips is married for USA readers. Furthermore, as the Drover's Wife states, we use sources here - to describe a relationship by any other terminology requires citation. Jack N. Stock (talk) 18:19, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm inclined to bypass this dispute by removing relationship status from the page. I don't think it is on any other AFLW player's article (I haven't checked them all, but not from what I remember), and not sure it is relevant on articles about people primarily known for sports. It is not the family that is notable about Phillips (plenty of people are married with children, and IVF is not unusual anymore), but the WNBA and AFLW accomplishments. Jack N. Stock (talk) 16:20, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Not a solution. Their marriage was very widely reported on in the press, and the photograph of Phillips' daughters in the inaugural Premiership cup one of the most prominent images of AFLW period to date. It is absurd to remove undisputed (in reliable sources, at least) fact because of one single-issue account who's prepared to revert a few times. The Drover's Wife (talk) 09:55, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

text: Phillips' marriage has been the subject of multiple newspaper articles and other news reports. I fail to see the argument here. Whether you support same sex marriage or not, Phillips is legally married. She was married in the US and ordinarily resides in the US, a jurisdiction where same-sex marriage is legal. Relationship status is a routine part of biographic articles. The statement on her marriage is one sentence - it is hard to argue it is being given undue weight. -- Mattinbgn (talk) 21:56, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

message: A recent edit changed her 2004 Australian Rules appearance from the "Slowdown" charity match, to a womens only match. I don't think that is correct. "Certainly after twenty years out of the game.  Although, Erin did play in 2004 in the “Slowdown” charity match for the Little Hero’s foundation." . Yet this link  says "Her last competitive Australian Football hit-out was in a women’s Crows v Power match in 2004." She could have played in two games, but I suspect one of the links is wrong. Adpete (talk) 08:49, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: And no sign of her in this video , but that was the 2004 State of Origin slowdown. There was also a Crows v Power West End Slowdown that year. Adpete (talk) 22:03, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

message: I was a bit surprised this was promoted to FA without mentioning Phillips' 2008 Alpha photo shoot which got a fair bit of coverage - e.g. . Is it worth putting in the article? Should there be a separate section on modeling? StAnselm (talk) 06:05, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I've added a bit (under "personal life") but there wasn't actually much in reliable sources except for the article I've referenced. StAnselm (talk) 22:16, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
