Personal life
In 1996, Jackson married surgeon Patrick G. Jackson, a sixth-generation Harvard graduate and a professor in the Department of Surgery at Georgetown University Medical Center[1]. The couple have two daughters. Patrick Jackson's twin brother is the brother-in-law of Janna Ryan, wife of former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.[2] MedTeach (talk) 21:41, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Her birth middle name
Should her middle name Onyika be included in the lead? --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 04:42, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
- Yes. There's already a source (ref name: SenateQuestionnaire), which is in the first sentence of the "Early life and education" section. The opening sentence should begin with Ketanji Onyika Brown Jackson. The "Born" field in the infobox already includes the middle name. 2605:A000:FFC0:D8:FDF2:3EB5:8751:7A62 (talk) 10:05, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
- Updated to "Ketanji Onyika Brown Jackson" in the opening paragraph so it's the same as on Amy Coney Barrett. The info box was already correct. --Asr1014 (talk) 03:24, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
Reference for term end of Sentencing Commission
Is there any source for the date when Jackson's term on the U.S. Sentencing Commission officially ended? I found one for when it began (https://www.ussc.gov/about/news/press-releases/february-16-2010), and there are multiple sources confirming it ended in December 2014 ([1], [2], [3]) but I haven't been able to find a source confirming the specific date. -- Politicsfan4 (talk) 02:03, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
- Updated: 2014 is accurate. There are two citations in the article confirming her term. One is from the US Sentencing Commission website. Asr1014 (talk) 00:17, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
Photo is not good it has bad lighting and looks like she is in a dark room
The photo is poor quality and looks like she is in a dark room I would advice getting a new photo with better lighting — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.222.180.90 (talk) 16:50, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- The photo is fine, particularly compared to the ones that are also available for use. It must be free use and can't just be taken off the internet. Additionally, once she is named to SCOTUS, her official photo will be used, so it's not even long term. Pennsylvania2 (talk) 17:07, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- See Category:Ketanji Brown Jackson. These are the currently available ones, but you can upload more if you have ones you have taken with your own camera, or ones with the right license. What do you suggest as replacement? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:20, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
Remove information about her husband being a boston brahmin
The original source for that is here [1]. She mentions it only to contrast it to her upbringing. The information is irrelevant to her personal life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.204.229.181 (talk) 04:37, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- I would say her husband and his upbringing is relevant to her personal life, and it's covered in NPR and WaPo. Iamreallygoodatcheckers (talk) 04:39, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- The background and ancestry of a person's spouse is a routine part of the biographies of highly notable people, if that content is well referenced. And in this case, it is. We have a direct quotation from the subject of this biography, referenced to an impeccably reliable source. Cullen328 (talk) 04:48, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- I agree with Cullen. Not seeing any issue. ––FormalDude talk 04:53, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- While it may seem odd to mention, it's stated in several credible articles. He's a 6th generation grad of Harvard with ancestors that came in on the Mayflower so yeah it needs to be there. More details about him are being reported as of today so in comparison to other judges's spouses, the additional info should be added when there is enough credible sources to cite. Most that I see as of now are only 12 hours out but I like to wait incase there are corrections.
- I think the Main Reason it felt odd to me is that in the Indian context it would be frowned upon to start introducing a person by their caste. While I recognize that Boston Brahmin does not directly reference caste, The word brahmin while starting an introduction to a person will not go well amongst Indian readers in my opinion. Maybe another Indian editor can back me up here? I don't know whether my reasoning for deletion falls under the WP:TDLI policy. Softmattereditor (talk) 22:38, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Under personal life, change "In 1996, Brown married surgeon Patrick Johnson" to "Patrick Jackson" 216.255.101.53 (talk) 12:26, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Maskless Ketanji
I believe the photo of Biden and Jackson together should be replaced with one where Jackson is maskless. During the nomination announcement, one of three speakers (Biden, Harris and Jackson) was maskless at any given time. I believe we should use a photo like that for Ketanji Brown Jackson. --LABcrabs (talk) 13:22, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

"Sights so high"
Second line in the third paragraph of "Early Life.." the quote "sights so high" needs verification. What would constitute a reliable source as its spoken about one whitehouse.gov, numerous newspapers, twitter, etc? Asabiyya (talk) 17:09, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
Here is a video clip from Twitter of Biden talking about it: https://twitter.com/CAPAction/status/1497291012540186629 Asabiyya (talk) 17:11, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
