[edit]This article uses words like "endearing" and "prestigious" in ways that suggest the author is biased in favor of Norville. In addition, in parts it is structured as a defense of Norville - her breast-feeding is "seemingly innocuous," she "In truth" was not in a managerial capacity, etc. Even the intro goes out of its way to highlight her strengths, which isn't the point of Wikipedia article. I'll make some fixes, but the article needs the attention of an expert. 68.81.114.143 02:26, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
This is about tag cleanup. As all of the tags are more than a year old, there is no current discussion relating to them, and there is a great deal of editing done since the tags were placed, they will be removed. This is not a judgement of content. If there is cause to re-tag, then that of course may be done, with the necessary posting of a discussion as to why, and what improvements could be made. This is only an effort to clean out old tags, and permit them to be updated with current issues if warranted.Jjdon (talk) 18:46, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
Need confirmation for Emmy awards
[edit]I have cleaned up this article, improved its tone, removed most of the unencyclopedic chatter, and added a couple of references so that it is no longer an "unreferenced biopgraphy of a living person". But I was completely unable to substantiate her claim to be a two-time Emmy award winner. She refers to herself that way, and so do non-authoritative internet sources like Wikipedia and IMDB. But I was not able to find those awards in any WP:RS reliable source. If this information is true, it should be featured much more prominently in this article, along with the details - what year? in what category? national or local? did she win it herself, or was it awarded to a program she was part of? If not true, or not verifiable by an outside source, it should be deleted. --MelanieN (talk) 17:25, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
- Emmy awards duly cited, but you're right-- that one was a toughy! I found a 2007 mention from Forbes with some specifics, but no dates. However, since they were awarded for her work prior to joining Inside Edition, they must be prior to 1995. Going to the source for News and Documentary Emmy Awards, there were press releases from only the last five years, and the "Winners/Nominees" link doesn't link to anything. The Primetime Emmy website has a searchable database that goes back to 1949, but I guess a similar engine for News and Documentary must still be under construction. --Rnickel (talk) 19:48, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
- Wow, great sleuthing! I moved that item to the intro, now that it is confirmed. (Two Emmy awards hardly qualify as trivia.). Good work! --MelanieN (talk) 02:28, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
