Please add movie

Jodie will be in Finding Santa in November 2017 as Jessica in Hallmark movie http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/christmas/2017-holiday-movies-preview/10 . 68.231.27.254 (talk) 05:52, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done Added. However, didn't state her role, as the source provided doesn't directly state "Jessica" as Sweetin's role - it is in the film's description at Hallmark Channel, but we'll need another reliable source to connect the dots to avoid WP:OR.

"Recovered" or "recovering"

I've seen several edits in recent weeks in the Substance abuse section, like this one [1], changing it from "Sweetin is a recovered drug addict" to "Sweetin is a recovering drug addict". I'm reverting it each time, as "recovering" doesn't appear to be the right word, from what I'm reading from one of the cited references here. In the ABC News article, from 2006 ([2], found at the end of the third sentence, which ends in "bored"), it reads Sweetin has been clean and sober since March of last year [2005] and now wants to get back into acting. I can't say 100% that this means "recovered", but it's even less likely that it means "recovering". MPFitz1968 (talk) 08:56, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The theory goes that you're never a "recovered" addict, you're always "in recovery"... The issue here is that the source actually uses neither word, so I'm thinking to avoid issues like "recovered" vs. "recovering" we should actually reword that to avoid use of the word as the source doesn't use it. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 13:26, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have decided to remove the sentence in dispute altogether. It could be seen as like a paragraph's topic sentence, which generally expresses an opinion, with the other sentences in the paragraph supporting that sentence with facts. I'm not sure whether sentences of this nature are encyclopedic, and at this point, I think that just removal of the sentence is sufficient for now, but if others want to chime in as to how to improve the Substance abuse section, please do.

Name changes

Name changes must be well sourced. Specifically it is not automatic on marriage, particularly for people with a notable career in their original name. Also if it does change, the source must be clear on what it was changed to, there are a lot of options. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:56, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
