Talk:Elisabeth Sladen

Deleted content

I removed this line: "Sladen paid tribute to Barry Letts when he died in 2009" because absolutely no context is offered. Lots of people paid tribute to Letts. What, did she do a special broadcast? Give his eulogy? Appear on BBC. You can't just say something vague like that. 68.146.64.9 07:08, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

Copied

When I was reading through the article, I noticed it is identical to the wikipedia Elisabeth Sladen article. I thought copy/paste from wikipedia was prohibited?

Also, RIP. Fan555 21:52, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

You have to add a tag, as shown at the bottom. Some bits are unique.----Skittles the hog--Talk 22:03, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

R.I.P Lis. You will be dearly lost.

Birth Date

Wikipedia editors are claiming that Lis was born in 1946 and are saying that all the media and every other site which claims she was 63 and born in 48 is wrong. Are there any sources for when she is born. The only source they have for the 1946 date is ancestry.com but only people who are paying and registered can see it, so I can't even confirm if this is correct. Surely the media and everyone cannot be wrong? Surely her husband, if not Lis herself would have informed them that they were wrong? The Thirteenth Doctor 19:49, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

I think it's safe to say that the news is more trustworthy than wikipedia, or wikia for that matter.----Skittles the hog--Talk 20:15, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

Considering that she's worked with the BBC for the best part of 30(40?) years, I think they're a bit likely to know her age. Then it becomes a simple case of maths: 2011-63 = 1948. Easy. - Excalibur-117-^{(talk • contribs)} 20:57, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

RIP

When i saw the article that Elisabeth died, i really hoped it was an error or flase information. but now that i know that it was true, my heart sank. I loved Sarah jane Smith as the Doctor's companion, and it is extremely sad that she did not even become old. She looked really energetic even though she made her debut as Sarah years ago, but it just made me feel sad that she had her life taken away from her whilst still in the prime of life. RIP, Elizabeth Sladen are thoughts are with you and your family. =( Sclera1 09:33, April 21, 2011 (UTC)
