Changes and Requests[edit]

need contact details, if anyone can help then please contact myself (Redacted) thankyou— Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.3.250.163 (talk) 10:31, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Incomplete/Unverified Information[edit]

Sexuality

Where has Emma admitted she is bisexual? There is no reference to this on her site and I understood she was dating a Doncaster footballer. I have removed the comment; the reference link to back this up does not exist and it's as if someone is having a joke at Emma's expense.

Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed. Salvio ^{Let's talk about it!} 21:21, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested name change[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

Please change the title, "page move", main header name and URL to "Emma Catherine Rigby" from just "Emma Rigby," this is her full legal name, and updated celebrity, professional and actress name. Catherine is her verified middle name, as shown on her Wikipedia already. The new URL should be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Catherine_Rigby

ECRERA26 (talk) 17:43, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: See WP:COMMONNAME. Also, article names are usually done via the WP:RM process, but in light of the WP:COMMONNAME concerns I would guess that this proposal has snowball's chance in hell. Melmann 12:27, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested page move[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

Please conduct page move to "Emma Catherine Rigby" from "Emma Rigby," this is her full legal name. This is also her professional and celebrity actress name. Catherine is her legal middle name, her full legal name page move request does not have any legally binding conflict of interest to any party. Her full legal name is Emma Catherine Rigby, please make the request change, thank you.

Her new URL should be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Catherine_Rigby please

ECRERA26 (talk) 09:16, 25 June 2021 (UTC)ECRERA26[reply]

Wikipedia uses wp:COMMONNAME criteria to determine wp:article titles. A source for "Emma Catherine Rigby" being her most recognizable name, please? I see that see is listed as Emma Rigby at Rotten Tomatoes. IMDB as "Emma Catherine Rigby". AllMovie.com as Emma Rigby. wp:IMDB is not considered an wp:RS. Adakiko (talk) 10:55, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I added Emma Catherine Rigby as a redirect. DarthFlappy 19:12, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Per declines above and below. Adakiko (talk) 19:18, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested page move and/or name update to reflect full legal name[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

Regarding affiliation, I am unpaid, not promoted by, and not employed by anyone or any business, including Emma Catherine Rigby. Can someone kindly conduct a "page move" from "Emma Catherine Rigby" from just "Emma Rigby"? This is her full legal name and updated professional actress name. Catherine is her legal middle name, as shown on her Wikipedia page already; other websites/sources do not reflect this change yet, she did use to go by just her first and last name "Emma Rigby," but all sources will soon reflect the name update.

The new URL would be appreciated to be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Catherine_Rigby

Thank you

Regarding affiliation, I am unpaid, not promoted by, and not employed by anyone or any business, including Emma Catherine Rigby. Rather being a matter of being her most recognisable name, Emma Catherine Rigby just wishes to have her full legal name be reflected on her Wikipedia, this is what she goes by for her professional name now on her personal social media pages, https://www.instagram.com/emmarealrigby/?hl=en and https://twitter.com/emmarealrigby?lang=en , this is also her full legal name used for her business, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/officers/Y60SMgiXxR9ai2w9XLURS87k1CU/appointments

Also, there has been a request to update her name on Rotten tomatoes and allmovie, but it will take a while to update. Thank you.

ECRERA26 (talk) 09:06, 26 June 2021 (UTC)ECRERA26[reply]

Regarding "Emma Catherine Rigby: just wishes...", how do you know this? As noted, Wikipedia typically uses the most common name in English langauge reliable sources for a topic, and not necessarily official or legal names. 331dot (talk) 10:32, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi dot331,

Just looking at her social media and IMDb, it very much shows she is wanting her name to be Emma Catherine Rigby, rather just Emma Rigby, I will wait for sources wikipedia accepts (Rotten Tomatoes, AllMovie) before submitting my requests again, thank you.

ECRERA26 (talk) 10:51, 26 June 2021 (UTC)ECRERA26[reply]

Please place new comments below the comment that you are replying to. 331dot (talk) 10:53, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not rewrite the history of this page. If you have additional comment, please add it below. Again, policy states we don't necessarily use legal names. 331dot (talk) 15:40, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do not move the page without a consensus to do so. You have not established that her legal name is the most commonly used name to refer to her. 331dot (talk) 18:55, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I apologise, I have been following Emma's films since she started, also I found she has 10 A* not 9! I will readd those items if you wish.

Touring101 (talk) 21:04, 28 June 2021 (UTC)touring101[reply]

Edits 28 June 2021[edit]

@Touring101 and 331dot: Touring101: Do you see "Award winning" on other actors pages such as Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, Isabella Rossellini or others? Please follow the form and layout per WP:MOSBIO, WP:MOS, and WP:BLP.

In the Early life section (which is not sourced btw), Why did you change "where she gained 9 A* at GCSE" to "where she gained 10 A* at GCSE"
In the Personal life section, Why the removal of "number 98" and "reaffirmed her Catholic faith"? Note: Catholic Agency for Overseas Development (CAFOD) probably should be in the link.
Why the removal of 2nd Date Sex? She's listed on the Rotten Tomatoes' listing.

Adakiko (talk) 20:00, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't follow every detail of this article, so feel free to remove content that is not like other articles on actors. 331dot (talk) 20:25, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Emma Rigby → Emma Catherine Rigby – I have noticed she is now using her full legal name as her new professional film name as seen on her imdb, instagram, twitter and other pages. Filmer1938 (talk) 17:37, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
