Talk:Tracey Ullman

message: "At age 12, a headmaster saw Ullman's future potential, and recommended her to the Italia Conti Academy"
I very much doubt this. The head teacher may have apporved the move, but head teachers don't spot talent, teachers do. DId the head teacher happen to walk along the corridor and spot what the music teacher and drama teacher had missed? More likelt, the head allowed something to happen.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulmarkj (talk • contribs) 00:41, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

message: This article is in serious need of citations or footnotes.  It is entirely unsourced.  I had also previously tagged this with a "Fan Site" warning because of its informal, un-encyclopedic tone and content.  I do not have the time right now to start trying to find sources for the article.  I am hoping that whoever has contributed to its development in the past will go back and add appropriate citations.--Vbd 16:35, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

However, in the article for The Simpsons shorts, it says the judge ruled in favor of the Network, which one is correct?Vicco Lizcano (talk) 18:36, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

message: The inability to distinguish between comedians and comediennes is rather inarticulate. Is there a Wikimandate that requires gender blur or would it be permissible to acknowledge that she is in fact female?

*I think that her gender is apparent from the dozens of sentences in the article that refer to her by pronouns such as "she" or "her", including every sentence in the opening section. Oh, and the photograph too. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 08:27, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

message: May I comment on the recent controversy and possible edit war over the inclusion of links to outside sites, notably three sites that unofficially cover Tracey's career?  I must tread lightly here because I am the owner of one of those sites.  In the past, I have generally refrained from editing this page because my site was linked here.  If it wasn't linked here as a main External Link, I would feel more free to contribute.  Indeed, my most recent edit (when Tracey became a US citizen) was made during a time when my site wasn't linked.
Maddyfan, I appreciate what you're trying to do, but I think it's becoming counterproductive.  Please stop, for I would be better able to improve the page if my site is not linked.
Now it may be that some of my future edits might be cited by a link to a page on my site (example: a discography).  That probably should be discussed on the talk page beforehand. Rreini 18:47, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  U.S. Citizenship 

message: As Ullman had continued her professional relationship with former producer Brooks, only the studio and not Brooks was named in the suit. In fact, Brooks was allowed to videotape his testimony because in an only-in-Hollywood twist he was at that time directing Ullman in the musical I'll Do Anything, which was released as a non musical film. A settlement was reached whereby Ullman would receive a portion of the profits made from the show, although no amount was ever publicly disclosed.

message: "A settlement was reached whereby Ullman would receive a portion of the profits made from the show, although no amount was ever publicly disclosed."
I really hope that's just sloppily worded, or Ullman got stiffed and likely won't see a penny. Hollywood's creative accounting generally sees that there are no profits recorded; the smart agents ensure their people get a cut of the revenue. 203.59.80.62 (talk) 21:25, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
