Talk:Peggy Lee

Pic

I like to see portraits of celebrities from their prime, the most flattering and impressive, not too young and not too old. It is acceptable to use album covers in the context of album discussion. George Slivinsky 16:26, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Gay Icon Project

In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article Gay icon to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article Gay icon and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much. Philwelch 21:10, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Peggy Lee - Big Spender.ogg

Image:Peggy Lee - Big Spender.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Errors

The dates on the Peggy Lee page don't add up correctly. If she was born in 1912 and died in 1997, she was not 81 when she died. Further, there is considerable reference to music she recorded in the 1920s, which suggests that perhaps she was even born prior to 1912. The text moves between 1920's work and 1940's work in an awkward way. I don't know enough about Lee to correct these points, but can see that there are errors here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.192.35.100 (talk) 22:01, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

There is also a problem with dates in the following sentence: "She was also a regular on NBC's Jimmy Durante Show during the 1938-48 season."

There are still more problems with dates. She left Capitol from the early 1940s until 1943, but Capitol was formed in 1947? All dates must be checked; they are very erratic. Zaslav (talk) 02:34, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Peggy's last named husband links to a man born in 1963. It seems unlikely that this is correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.15.51.174 (talk) 20:48, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Categorizations should reflect the text in the article. For this and the other aricles you've categorized you shold add a sourced statement to the article.   Will Beback  talk  21:29, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Good point, I have therefore removed the category I added earlier. If other editors feel this is notable and wish to add it to this article, then the category may also be re-added.
