Talk:Jolin Tsai

message: I see there isn't a single mention of Tsai's Strabismus (斜视). Should I assume that this is another celebrity article being maintained by fans who prefer to filter out such things?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minlunn (talk • contribs) 23:34, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Strabismus

message: It was very interesting to read about Jolin. However, this wiki article reads like a resume. Since most readers are not looking to employ Jolin -- but rather educate themselves -- maybe a more balanced approach could be taken?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.36.230.148 (talk) 19:21, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

message: God DAMN could this whole article be LESS NPOV? And please, no-one knows any of these songs by their English pseudo-names - they're generally not even translated by HER, so unless the translations are official, please kindly shove them up your ass.--203.73.105.51 18:58, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  NPOV please. 

message: I think that everyone will agree that Jolin's English Diary Book is a good English-teaching book which can give everyone a good way of learning English, Can you tell me why do you have to keep changing the book's introduction to lots of insulted words? If you keep doing this, Jolin's fans will never forgive you.
(An English Teaching book that teaches a way of learning English-keeping a diary. There are 24 example diaries which are selected in Jolin's real personal diary book.)
I think the words above are a good introduction of this book.
—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drickchen (talk • contribs) .
* Because your introduction is way too much of an advertisement for a start. If it's OK for you to be biased, I will be too. And no, "everyone" will not "agree that Jolin's English Diary Book is a good English-teaching book", because it's not. Jolin's book may offer a good method, but it's done horribly and shouldn't have been marketed as a reliable English-education book. Her spoken English is excellent, but her writing needs a proofreader and editor before it's anywhere near publishable. Give a copy to a native speaker - I guarantee they'll be able to flip to any page in the book and find at least two grammatical or spelling errors. And I work in the publishing industry in Taiwan, I know what's generally acceptable, and if she wasn't famous and/or blowing the publisher, it would never have gone through. Now I'm removing ALL descriptions of the content of the book, because they're irrelevant. Plus I couldn't give a fuck what Jolin's fans think of me - most of them are idiots, sex-starved hormonal teenage boys, or under-16-year-old girls. Plus she needs to stop copying Ayumi Hamasaki or pretending she's black. That video with Luo Zhixiang is embarrassing.--Spigot the Bear 09:41, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

message: What sort of category is "Scandal boyfriend"? Do we expect her to have more "scandal boyfriends"? Please, Wikipedia's an encyclopedia, not a trivial celebrity site. --Yu Ninjie 11:50, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: I am adding back the external links section, seeing as decent external links can provide a good source of information to those who want to learn more about the topic covered. Please do not remove them. --Haley 00:32, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I think we should remove duplicated information and non-encyclopedic trivia like favourites. Monni 16:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Concurred.  I don't think stuff like favorite colors and bands should be included in the article.  Particularly since there's no source cited. Bhamv 11:05, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Profile 

message: I'm a big fan of Jolin, but the tone of this article reads more like a press release or promotional piece than an authoritative article.
The article failed to mention her boob job, which if I remember right, was about  2002 or so and was largely responsible for this airhead's success. (oh, I said "largely").  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.136.163.211 (talk) 22:50, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Where does the translation 'tricks of love' come from? Surely a better translation would be 36 Stratagies of love, or rather, 'Thirty-Six Stratagems of Love'. Looking at the spelling 愛情36計 I would assume it's a play on the name of the famous 36計 Thirty-Six Stratagems.Number36 (talk) 03:45, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  36 Tricks of Love 

message: First, I know nothing about this person, whether they are simple or controversial. But in most entertainment figures biographies, there is at least a short paragraph that talks about their personal life (relationships, kids, hobbies, charities they support, hobbies, country where they live, etc.) but this entry reads more like a background sheet on record releases and tour dates. 
There must be more to her life than her career. Again, I know nothing about her and I don't think Wikipedia is the place for tabloid celebrity gossip. But I read biographies to get a sense of the person, not just a list of songs they've released. After reading this, all I can tell about this woman is that she is well-known for her dancing. She must have a bio section on her personal website with some of the basic info, doesn't she? Newjerseyliz (talk) 17:03, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Does she have a personal life? 

message: Something should be in this article about "We're All Different, Yet the Same" which has a lesbian marriage theme, and was thus banned from Singapore's airwaves, both radio and television. Very wide commentary on this issue:

There's enough coverage of this song to give it its own article: "We're All Different, Yet the Same". Binksternet (talk) 16:59, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
