Net Worth?

According to Fortune, Chloe Moretz has the most earning potential of any child star. This is all proven, and deleting proven facts is not allowed on Wikipedia.

It's not about proving facts here at Wikipedia, it's about providing reliable sources. If you have a reference, feel free to add that back! Cheerio, CapnZapp (talk) 09:05, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

::Lol how dickish. Is wikipedia policy really "my opinion about your source is different, so it's not reliable and you're an asshole" these days? I remember back when it was about providing accurate and relevant information to a broad audience, rather than being a police state mocked up as a forum of public interest.98.27.162.44 (talk) 07:56, 18 November 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Ignore Troll's comment. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 8:43 18 November 2010 (UTC)
Cute, I talk about what Wikipedia's mission statement is and how the community used to interpret it and I'm a troll. Yet you editing another user's post and providing no reason as to why you take issue with it is acceptable. If you're really trying to say what I said was wrong, then provide a valid argument rather than proving the point I made. Also, unregistered users are users too. Just because I'm not afraid to post my IP on the web doesn't make me less a valid user than you with your pseudo-anonymous screenname.

On-topic: removing information that's common to other articles needs to have more specific criteria on what is and isn't a reliable source than that you don't like a particular magazine.98.27.162.44 (talk) 02:28, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

The recent act of vandalism to this page was disturbing, particularly given that the target is a minor. I recommend this page should be locked so only logged in users can edit it. KristianSC (talk) 09:10, 19 June 2009 (CET)

There is not enough recent disruptive activity to justify semi-protection. If multiple IP users continue to vandalize this article, you can send request for page protection here.

The vandalism is probably happening due to Chloe Moretz being a fairly significant part of 4chan these days. I dunno if it would be worth including that fact on the page somehow? There probably won't be any sources to back up the claim. Wikiditm (talk) 13:52, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the importance of Moretz on 4chan should be included as its almost impossible to visit /b/ without realizing shes the new queen — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.130.228.163 (talk) 23:32, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. I've added in a sentence about it as there are multiple mentions daily, and for people outside the US it might be the only thing they know about her. I couldn't find a reliable source other than things like the 4chan archive, so I've made the line as short and unprovocative as possible. Wikiditm (talk) 08:44, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. --> Gggh talk/contribs 13:12, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Is there a discussion somewhere to help out with cases like this? My guess is that there are a good few million people who only know Chloe as the "queen of /b/" so it seems weird to leave that fact out of the article, but at the same time, how could there be a reliable source for internet culture? It's not like there's any news source covering it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiditm (talkcontribs) 16:46, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Any actions of 4chan users regarding Moretz have to be reported by reliable sources first, not by Wikipedia editors. See WP:OR. --> Gggh talk/contribs 07:30, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Stop Vandalism

New Role

It has recently been announced that Chloe Moretz is going to star in Carrie. I think this should be mentioned it the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.30.156.66 (talk) 22:31, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

According to the news sources, negotiations are still underway. She's been offered the part of Carrie, but it doesn't seem she's accepted it quite yet, or at least nothing is official yet. We will add when it becomes official. — FoxCE (talkcontribs) 22:50, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: moved to Chloë Grace Moretz. Favonian (talk) 09:15, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Chloë MoretzChloë Grace Moretz. Relisted. Lynch7 08:00, 1 May 2012 (UTC) – Seems like the actress is mostly credited with her middle name. QuasyBoy (talk) 17:31, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is how she prefers to be credited and called in real life. She wanted Chloe Grace to be a double first name (as in Mary Kate Olsen) but early on most people credited her as just Chloe Moretz because they didn't know. Now she often corrects people whenever they don't call her Chloe Grace Moretz. But because old habits die hard, most people are still getting used to calling her by her full name. For An Angel (talk) 17:59, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So you want the name to stay as is? QuasyBoy (talk) 18:15, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If we're voting then my vote is for the rename =] For An Angel (talk) 18:17, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am the the Spanish editor. In the Spanish Wikipedia the article was originally named Chloë Grace Moretz and was renamed early this year to simply Chloë Moretz. I to vote for the rename and if this occurs the Spanish version will quickly fallow. Generalpompeyo (talk) 23:44, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Could someone please provide a reliable reference showing she prefers to be called "Chloë Grace Moretz". Looking at gnews, it seems pretty clear the current title is the most common name, but as this is a BLP the subject's own preference does carry considerable weight. Jenks24 (talk) 16:56, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In all her films she is referred to as Chloë Grace Moretz in the cast, always. generalpompeyo (talk) 20:52, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't find an interview where she actually says "I prefer Chloë Grace Moretz over Chloë Moretz" but pretty much every time she introduces herself she calls herself Chloë Grace Moretz. In one interview, he introduces her as "Chloë Moretz" and she corrects him by saying "Chloë Grace Moretz" but she doesn't make a big deal out of it. For An Angel (talk) 01:01, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the replies. I think I'll go with weak support, as I think that in BLPs the subject's preference should be a big consideration, and it's not like "Chloë Grace Moretz" is never used in the media. Jenks24 (talk) 22:07, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support per For An Angel's documentation that she introduces herself this way, and it is also indicative that the widely-followed IMDb credits her under this name, see her page at IMDb. -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 00:41, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So Chloë (Grace) Moretz goes on The Late Show with David Letterman last night and he asks her, "Should I call you Chloë or Chloë Grace?" and she says, "Chloë, but my mom really likes the Grace". So now I'm just confused. For An Angel (talk) 16:22, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, she probably said that to be nice. Moving the article under her full name, covers all the bases for now. QuasyBoy (talk) 19:14, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Here's the YouTube clip for Letterman, I guess people can judge for themselves. I'm a bit more ambivalent than before. -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 21:28, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with QuasyBoy, moving the article under her full name would cover all possibilities. Furthermore it would be accurate with all sources. generalpompeyo (talk) 10:10, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment "Chloe Moretz" returns far more results than "Chloe Grace Moretz" on google search results. --Peaceworld 11:36, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support I agree with generalpompeyo and quasyboy Tiller54 (talk) 19:49, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kick-ass 2

I saw the news via The Hollywood Reporter, but it only says her return is "expected." |The Hollywood Reporte]]r, but it only says her return is "expected." Nothing official.
