Talk:Jeremy Strong

Plagiarism

The current entry not only relies heavily on one source, it is word-for-word taken from the New Yorker profile in places. 173.8.31.161 (talk) 00:08, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Over-reliance on New Yorker profile

This article cites the New Yorker profile over 20 times, and seems to over-rely on that piece. Parts of the article simply re-state the profile, rather than provide basic biography. For example, there's a very lengthy section on "Acting philosophy and technique" which seems overly focused on this, while few other actors have such a section in their article. Really need to find more diverse and balanced sources for this biography. -- ZimZalaBim ^talk 00:56, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

I'm not about to do it myself, but if anyone wants to tackle overhauling the section, here's two other articles that might be useful:

• Jeremy Strong and Hollywood's most extreme actors
• Jeremy Strong Will Never Break

• Jeremy Strong (actor) → Jeremy Strong
• Jeremy Strong → Jeremy Strong (disambiguation)

– Clear primary topic by usage (13,000% more pageviews) and significance (Emmy etc. winner). No dab page needed. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 22:30, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

• Move. Should be no need for full RM, but you could wait 24 hours to move both pages; do not delete the DAB page, but move it to Jeremy Strong (disambiguation). — HTGS (talk) 03:47, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
• It's interesting that in this case WikiNav https://wikinav.toolforge.org/?language=en&title=Jeremy_Strong doesn't show such a clear picture like in those other few cases you nominated in the same go. The global ratio incoming to outgoing is at 52%, though it's still 354 vs one more entry that doesn't render so it sounds like a 10:1 still, or we're missing some other Jeremy Strong that an apparent minority of readers are looking for. --Joy (talk) 07:19, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

• @Joy: Doesn't weigh on the overwhelming primary topic, but one candidate is Jeremy Strong (professor) (UWL, formerly Writtle), who's mentioned in passing a couple times around the 'pedia (Eastern European cuisine, John Leeson) as the editor of Educated Tastes.

• Support, seems noncontroversial. Randy Kryn (talk) 15:30, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

"He has been recognized for his intense approach to the craft of acting"

...do we really want to say this – in the second sentence of the article? Gnom (talk) 19:39, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

While we’re at it, has he really been recognized for his involvement in films inspired by real-life events? — HTGS (talk) 05:28, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
