This might have come up before, but is there a reason why Taylor's reported hypertrichosis hasn't been mentioned in the section about her early life? - Jack Sebastian (talk) 04:17, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
please remove the "Throughout her career, Taylor's personal life was the subject of constant media attention. She was married eight times to seven men, converted to Judaism, endured several serious illnesses, and led a jet set lifestyle, including assembling one of the most expensive private collections of jewelry in the world. After many years of ill health, Taylor died from congestive heart failure in 2011, at the age of 79." but also remove the other mention of conversion also please remove the religion she and other celebs were born to since religion is a private thing so do the same for the other celebs by removing the religion they converted to and the one they were born to 2607:FEA8:4260:C100:8C38:3169:A4C7:996F (talk) 22:50, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No. Don't forget? Your fellow editors are not here to craft Wikipedia to your liking. You mean censor known facts out of a Wikipedia article about a world-famous person? Are you serious? That would be POV-editing. That a single editor finds certain information distasteful is immaterial if multiple reliable sources contain such information - such as Taylor's conversion to Judaism. Her conversion was done openly and publicly and she was not ashamed of it, so neither should Wikipedia censor it. And her personal life - her marriages, her divorces, her jewelry, her support of AIDS charities, and so on - are all well documented. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and Wikipedia is not censored. - Shearonink (talk) 04:52, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
