This should be added to the family member's reactions at the bottom of the story. Jess Woods, daughter of Mama and the Papas bandmate Denny Doherty, contacted the Oprah show to back up Mackenzie's story. She said that her father told her about it many years ago, and that he was horrified by what John had done.

Plagiarism

This page appears to me to be plagiarized from the Bio page it references in the footnotes. (I say this as a college professor who has only swiftly perused the 'Bio' page -- what I mean is that, at first glance, I would be inclined to flunk the Wikipedia page author for plagiarism -- this should at least be investigated further.)

Name

"She was named in honor of her father's friend, songwriting collaborator and performing partner, Scott Mckenzie." -- Scott McKenzie's web site (http://www.scottmckenzie.info/story.html) says the opposite, that his stage name was derived from her name. --Skylax 20:49, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Removal of copyedit tag

I've removed the copyedit tag. It seems premature. The article does not yet meet the Copyedit criteria. Please feel free to call for copyedit assistance when the other tagged problems are fixed. Jim 14159 (talk) 11:05, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Modifications made to 'Personal Life'

Skullan (talk) 11:08, 11 September 2008 (UTC) I removed the 'Later' from the Personal Life title, it makes it sound like she is dead or at least ancient.

I also removed the following comment from the Personal Life section:

"Also to note that the above criminal act is a long time used ploy of Career Agents to raise waning stars career profile .. as they say the only bad publicity is no publicity.[1]"

This comment is unneeded, it does not enhance the Personal Life section, it also has no relevance to the fact she was arrested. If there is proof that she was arrested to try and gain publicity (like an admission from her) then I can see it being placed back in. Without such a reference, it just looks petty and out of place to leave it there.

Ann Marie Montade when made to be an internal link turns red because there is no page for Ann Marie Montade. I did remove the brackets to remove the attempted link however the bad link was put back on the page. I will not bother to remove it again just will wait for the bot to come around and evetually do that for me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peacekeeper 1234 (talkcontribs) 17:49, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi, those kinds of red links are for reminders in case someone wants to write an article about them. This one looks notable enough to have an article too. No one's made one so it's a red link but hopefully in time someone will get interested in writing one. I hope that helps. --CrohnieGalTalk 18:09, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Official Website

Clicking on the link takes one to a parked domain page for macphillips.net. It appears to have no relation to Mackenzie Phillips. I did not delete, but added a dead link notice. I have no idea if I were authorized to delete the link.
