Template:Vital article

Infobox image

There was an RFC about Robbie's infobox image last year, before this image, which is a much-clearer face shot, was available on Commons. I've made a WP:BOLD edit on the article, and if anyone objects to the current image, please do so here. Cheers! Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:57, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I support the change, as it's a much better image. - JuneGloom07 Talk 01:44, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The one that I added is not included in RFC nor any other discussion. It's from this year and represents the person better (because of her age etc.). Sebastian James what's the T? 14:12, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Krimuk2.0: There isn't any consensus to gain. Check this page first. The image I added has nothing to do with the past incidents (this was in April, and now we are at the end of 2019). We don't have to start a discussion every time we add a clearly better and more recent picture. Sebastian James what's the T? 15:52, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"clearly better" is subjective. "Recent" by a few years is not how we choose an infobox image. When in disagreement, let others weigh in and maintain WP:STATUSQUO until then. Cheers! Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:03, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

She doesn't look like the way she did 6 years ago. Put an image from the subject's childhood then. It looks like it represents better in your opinion. My talk page and the things I wrote above wisely says, but as expected, you don't understand. Sebastian James what's the T? 16:18, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The 2013 image is clearer, she is facing forward into the camera, and her hair is not obscuring parts of her face, which is why I prefer it (for what it's worth). - JuneGloom07 Talk 18:58, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article incorrectly states Margot Robbie was nominated for an Academy Award for Bombshell (2019) - She was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Motion Picture, Oscars noms aren't till later January. 81.102.191.107 (talk) 00:39, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I moved the mention of the Academy Award nomination. The sentence was referring to I, Tonya, but it was a little confusing. - JuneGloom07 Talk 02:40, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 7 January 2020

Article incorrectly states that Margot Robbie “was the first actress nominated for an Academy Award for playing a real-life athlete.” The citation specifies that she was the first nominated for playing an Olympian, not just an athlete. Robert De Niro, for example, was nominated and won for playing real-life boxer Jake LaMotta in Raging Bull, decades before I, Tonya. 2600:1008:B04E:B81:35D8:D1AA:1EF:E64E (talk) 21:48, 7 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

“Actress” means female.... which De Niro is not. ⌚️ (talk) 21:56, 7 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The existing EW review in the article already gives us a direct quote about her performance, so review no. 1 (LA times) gives us a different perspective, as it talks about how "Yan and Robbie have largely salvaged Harley Quinn from the dour, sexist ugliness of that 2016 movie [Suicide Squad]".
