Talk: Dr. Cristina Yang

Beverly Hills High School? Was it ever mentioned she attended this school?

Yang ?? I don't think so. Dr B2 (talk) 13:41, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Age

How was her age determined? Assume bachelors of 4 years. Three to five years for PhD. Four years for medical school. If she entered college at 17, this puts her at a minimum of 28 when the show begins. And we're in season four. Unless she skipped several years of school, she's got to be in her early 30s by now. --Westendgirl 22:55, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Cristina Yang/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: TBrandley (talk · contribs) 00:01, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   "On the creation of Yang, Rhimes" write her full name as first mention in actual article. Also, Oprah Winfrey how is show important, who is she, explain it. "while also noting her weaknesses" remove also. Then, "New York magazine wrote of the character" huh? That doesn't make sense. Link eighth season in its first mention. Don't use curly quotation mark things, use regular quote marks, per the WP:MOS. Same goes for references. In the first line of reception, it goes straight to reviews. I'd like an intro quickly.

Rhimes name is given now. Oprah context. Why would I remove that clause? Yes, actually, it does make sense. The magazine wrote of her character.. S8 linked. MOS:PUNCT is not a GA criterion. Intro given. TRLIJC19 (talk • contribs) 17:48, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   "New York (magazine)" it actually says that, remove "(magazine)" in references, ref 11. Use single quotes rather than double in references please. Regarding 2b, how is ref. 34 a reliable source

Magazine removed. MOS:QUOTEMARKS is also not a GA criterion. The website has been used in other articles, including GA George O'Malley. TRLIJC19 (talk • contribs) 17:48, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

"The website has been used in other articles, including GA George O'Malley" isn't a good enough rationale, could have been added after review, reviewer could have missed it. Either way, it doesn't explain or have a good enough rationale for source. TBrandley 00:44, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

First of all, you reviewed George O'Malley. The website has a staff, and from scoping around the website, it appears reliable. TRLIJC19 (talk • contribs) 15:47, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

1. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   Yep, looks fine. If you do happen to run into more useful information, please add it though. :)

2. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

   Looks fine.

3. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

   Looks fine, no edit wars, vandalism, etc. Nothing to pick at.

4. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   For the first image, the non-free rationale of it needs expanding, to met WP:NFCC also. Also, de-bold her name in caption in infobox.

MOS:BOLD says nothing about bolding the article title being a problem. Rationale expanded. TRLIJC19 (talk • contribs) 17:48, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

1. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   Obviously in good shape, this one will be good to pass after the above are addressed. Well done! TBrandley 05:04, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Trivia, I guess. Yang says she is Filipino then says Korean

Season 1, 2nd episode at minute 15:32 she says her nationality. On the original airing, she states she is "Filipino". On the Netflix replay she is very obviously over dubbing the original audio and says she is "Korean". She said it again in season 3 episode 22, but the scene has been removed. I'm a registered nurse and work with many Filipinas and Filipinos, the name of the ethnicity of people from the Philippines. Filipina girls always refer to themselves as Filipina, not Filipino, and there is nothing believable about Sandra Oh being Filipina. The actress that plays her mother, is Chinese, Tsai Chin Zhou. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.90.146.56 (talk) 00:37, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

• You can't even see her lips for more than half a second when she says, "Besides, I'm Korean." in episode two, so I'm not sure how you could say it's been dubbed over. I highly, highly doubt it ever said she was Filipino because the character is Korean, as is the actress, Sandra Oh. And when in "The Other Side of This Life" do you think she said she was Filipino? Librarynerds (talk) 01:49, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, it's dubbed. Close your eyes and listen. It's super obvious. Tone and pitch and mood and volume is changed. Dubbing over isn't about lips moving, it's about sound. And I can say she said she was Filipino because I heard it and I thought it was stupid at the time because she's Korean. At the time it seemed to be put in for shock value so the viewer would say "I wouldn't have guessed that. I shouldn't judge a book by its cover". Her mother speaks with a Chinese accent, not Korean, so thumbs down to the casting agent. It's trivia now since I can't find any other record of it. But if I do ill post it! 72.90.146.56 (talk) 15:51, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

• In that case, it could have been that they used ADR in post-production because there was something wrong with the original recording (background noise, audio quality was lacking) and they needed her to redo it, with the same dialogue. Librarynerds (talk) 22:44, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
