Better photo? edit

Can't we get a better photo than the current blurry screenshot? --Muzilon (talk) 05:57, 9 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Filmography edit

Some of her filmography here lacks proper sources other than the unreliable IMDb. The unknown film The Horse Killer doesn't even have an IMDb page. Intriguingly, I did find a newspaper mention of a film called The Horse Killers being made around 1969 by the same crew who went on to make Little Laura and Big John. The WP article also claims she appeared in Cowards aka Love-In '72 under the alias "Susan Sparling", but the source given (Henenlotter) doesn't corroborate this.--Muzilon (talk) 00:15, 18 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Some of her biography is off, too. Was she born in 1952 or 1948?

Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 23:32, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Infobox and lead edit

  • Couldn't find any issues here.

Life and career edit

Early roles edit

  • The sentence ending with "an ailment" needs a source.
  • The sentence ending with "number of episodes" also needs a source.
  • Same issue with the sentence ending with "for school".
  • Don't forget to add year dates to each of her projects.

Collaboration with Wes Craven (1972) edit

  • First and second sentences in the first paragraph need sources (recite if necessary).
  • The last part of the sentence ending in "The Virgin Spring (1960)" needs a source.
  • Is the phrase "then scripted blonde" necessary?
  • The first mention of Craven in prose should be Wes Craven.
  • The two references after "positive reviews" don't seem reliable and go to the same link to Arrow in the Head.
  • The sentence ending with "funny film" needs a source (recite if necessary).
  • I would remove the word "extremely" as it doesn't sound Wikipedia-ish.
  • The sentence ending with "rape scenes" needs a source.
  • The second source after "throughout the shoot" doesn't seem reliable.
  • The words Last House should be in italics in the quote block.

Final roles edit

  • I would suggest combining the first two paragraphs since they're both kinda short.
  • Remove the comma after "Vinegar Syndrome".
  • The sentence ending in "(1973)" needs a source.
  • Is there a word missing in-between "when was"?
  • Try trimming the use of quotes in this section.
  • Is the description of Teenage Hitchhikers necessary.
  • If it is, "freedom, excitement, and independence" doesn't seem like a neutral phrase.
  • Move the reference from the Los Angeles Times to the end of the sentence.
  • Combine the last two paragraphs (too short) and find a source for the sentence ending in "assistant editor".
  • In this section and in others, be consistent on whether you're referring to her as "Sandra" or "Peabody".

Producer and talent agent edit

  • Try removing uses of "In [year]" as it feels repetitive and out of place.
  • Is the quote block about being an acting coach necessary?
  • "the Portland, Oregon and Los Angeles, California areas" → "areas around Portland, Oregon, and Los Angeles"

Personal life edit

  • The sentence ending in "pursued drama" needs a source.
  • I would suggest combining the first two paragraphs since they're related.
  • The last paragraph was already mentioned in the quote block so I would move it to the subsection above #Personal_life as a reason she left acting.

Filmography edit

  • Add a references column and source each of her roles/credits.
  • Also fill in some of her missing roles/credits.

References edit

  • Archive all archivable sources (manually or using this or this).
  • Mark references from Los Angeles Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from The New York Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Some references say that they are from Newspapers.com, while others don't. Try to be consistent.

Comments edit

  • Hey @The Baudelaire Fortune: Noticed you addressed all of my suggestions so I am passing the article's GAN. For future reference, try notifying the reviewer of the GA when you address their comments by simply pinging them (example: {{ping|Some Dude From North Carolina}} will notify me with @Some Dude From North Carolina:). Also try to add comments to the GA nomination itself, as this page was in my watchlist and any edits would have appeared in it. This helps me see your progress and will result in the article being passed sooner. Anyway, thanks for improving the page, since it's now a good article.
