Talk:Callie Torres

message: I have changed the title sentence from "Dr. Calliope..." to "Calliope..." based on the Wikipedia style manual for biographies, which dictates that academic or professional titles should not precede the individual's name in the article. I also checked with the Wikipedia articles on several real-life physicians to verify that this was the convention in use. The body of the article and the infobox provide sufficient evidence of Callie's possession of a M.D. degree. DarkandTwisty29 18:07, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I respectfully disagree with changing all of the "Torres" references to O'Malley.  This has been discussed on the Grey's Anatomy and List of characters from Grey's Anatomy talk pages, although it hasn't been an issue on this article before.  Several characters have casually referred to the couple as "The O'Malleys" and Callie as "Callie O'Malley", but professionally and probably legally (despite the soundtrack of the most recent episode--"My Favorite Mistake") she is still Callie Torres.  Her medical license would be in the "Torres" name, so until and unless she went through the arduous and long process of changing it, she would have to practice medicine as Callie Torres.  There is certainly precedent for female surgeons retaining their "maiden" names upon marriage--Miranda Bailey's husband is a Jones, and even Addison hyphenated her last name prior to her divorce.  In addition, Callie's labcoat in "My Favorite Mistake" still reads "Callie Torres M.D."--when Addison's character name changed to Addison Montgomery, she also got a new labcoat.  Callie seems to still be using Torres, aside from the casual "Callie O'Malley" nicknaming. DarkandTwisty29 03:52, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

text: As of episode "Testing 1-2-3", Callie is still called "Dr. Torres", so I'm changing it back on the main page. DarkandTwisty29 05:50, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Referenced Rampage

message: Is Callie's middle name spelled Iphigenia or Iphegenia? On the main Grey's page it's spelled with an "i", but on the Callie Torres page it's spelled with an "e". I looked the name up on various baby name sites, and it's always spelled "Iphigenia". I haven't been able to find it spelled with an "e" anywhere. Rainbow 23:46, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spelling of Callie's middle name... 

message: I added the template because of sentences like: "...the two seemed destined to become friends...". Don't speculate about the character becoming "friend" or "best friend" with another character, unless it can be backed up with a verifiable source. 17:34, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Original research 

message: I think the name "Calliope Iphegenia" is just because her parents are into mythology or something. So far as I know it's pretty strongly indicated she is from a wealthy Hispanic family. Also "Torres" is not, so far as I know, a Greek name.--T. Anthony (talk) 15:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  I don't think the character's Greek 

message: ...featured in My Favorite Mistake  (Season 3 Episode 19), don't think they mentioned his first name but he should be put in the side bar along with relatives because he did actually appear on-screen ..btw he was played by Hector Elizondo Nisior (talk) 00:27, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Her Father.. 

message: The season description for season two and three is wrong. George start seeing Callie and finds out she lives in the basement in season 2. They break up at the very end of season 2 during the 'prom'.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.65.71.105 (talk) 19:47, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Seasons 

message: Hi all, I don't recall after the Callie/Arizona wedding that they took hyphenated last names. She is still referred to as "Dr. Torres" in subsequent episodes.  Therefore, in the infobox, Callie's last name should remain solely Torres unless this is addressed on the show. Sfufan2005 (talk) 16:00, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Callie's Last Name

message: Hello, I have changed Callie's titled and status to reflect her current position at the hospital.  Callie is not a member of F.A.C.S.  She has been working as an attending for almost two full seasons, but her status has not changed during that time.  Besides completing residency, there are other requirements for membership that she has not yet met.  It is best to leave the information out until her membership has been absolutely confirmed, which means the "F.A.C.S." appears on her lab coat.  I suspect this will happen when Season Eight promo pictures are released, but her information should not be changed beforehand.  Additionally, she is not the Head of Orthopedic Surgery.  Dr. Chang was last mentioned in 6.01/2 when Callie was denied her position as a regular attending as not retiring for a while because his 401K dipped and he put off retirement, which was not mentioned again during the rest of Season Six and Season Seven.  Until it is mentioned in an episode, Callie is not the head of her department and the information should really reflect that until it does change.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.204.197.98 (talk) 10:18, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It says Dr. Chang retired a year after his 401k which would mean he retired in Season 7 episode 2. Which makes her the head. She is a a member of F.A.C.S. as she got her job as an attending surgeon which means the surgeon has been evaluated. My brother-in-law is an attending surgeon in Ohio and when he became one he had to be a member of F.A.C.S. as does every other attending surgeon. The title attending can only be given to F.A.C.S. members. A significant other is not just a boyfriend/girlfriend. The definition states otherwise. Therefore, Alex Karev (her ex- sex partner) and Mark Sloan (her daughter's FATHER) are considered significant others. Please stop changing these edits as they specify wrong information. TRLIJC19 (talk) 04:36, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: This is incorrect information. The position of attending is hospital-based. A hospital rank and role is not mutually inclusive of membership in the American College of Surgeons. Membership in the ACS is voluntary, and although most hospitals have a running trend of hiring surgical attendings with such affiliations, it is not a requirement. Furthermore, giving Callie Torres this title is original research as canon has not stated that Callie has attained the title of Fellow within the ACS nor has she been mentioned as the Chief of Orthopedic Surgery. Original research is not credible, and until the show or any credible source has mentioned this, Callie should be not be listed as having FACS as post-nominal letters or mentioned as the head or chief of her respective surgical department.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.194.42.93 (talk) 03:50, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Why don't you make an account and stop trying to make significant false changes as an anonymous.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by TRLIJC19 (talk • contribs) 04:56, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: This is not false changes. You are violating wikipedia policies by changing articles based on OR. If you can cite a credible source or something in canon that states that the character has attained Fellow title in the ACS or is the department of orthopedic surgery WITHOUT transitory theory or conjecture, then what you are posting are false. Also, 7x02 makes no reference to Dr. Cheng whatsoever, and unless a character, a writer, or a credible synposis states that Callie is the head of ortho, then what you are posting is false and will be undone.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.194.42.93 (talk) 05:04, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You do not even have an account. You must be a member of F.A.C.S. to become an attending and it has been made clear that Callie is head of ortho due to Dr. Changs retirement. Do not talk to me about Wiki policies when you don't even have an account. You are not credited at all. Please stop vandalizing. TRLIJC19 (talk) 05:09, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't need an account to point out when a user is trying to pass off OR as actual fact. First, you cannot be a member of FACS as FACS is not an organization: ACS is. FACS are the letters one receives as a Fellow of the ACS; please get that correct. Second, you are still not citing credible sources to justify the character's post-nominal letters other than stating that because she's an attending, she is a member of the ACS. As I've stated, it is NOT a requirement for a hospital to have attendings as part of the ACS as a hospital has more specialities than just surgical ones, as non-surgical speicalities (cardiologiss, endcrinologists, anthestiologists, pediatricians, etc.) who have attending positions will not be able to gain membership as a fellow in the ACS as they are NOT surgeons. Furthermore, 7x02 makes no reference to Chang's retirement nor does Shonda, her writers, or any other CREDIBLE source state that Callie now the dept head of ortho. Until you can come up with citations other than OR, you cannot state that on her page. 71.194.42.93 (talk) 05:24, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

text: So even after you see my point, you continue to impose non-credible sources and OR to character articles? What you are doing is against WP policy as you are presenting OR as fact when it is anything but. 71.194.42.93 (talk) 05:45, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
