What was her occupation?
editDoes anyone have actual information about Nicole Brown Simpson? What was her occupation? - DropDeadGorgias (talk) 18:36, Jun 9, 2004 (UTC)
She was a waitress in a Beverly Hills nightclub before meeting OJ. I'll add that info. Also, Denise is older than Nicole, not younger. Sara
Nightclub waitress or country club waitress? there is a difference.
Nationality
editSince she was born in Germany but grew up in the United States, would her nationality be German or American? 2001:569:7F96:EE00:4DD5:C16B:9759:5EF7 (talk) 02:05, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- Could be both. Nakonana (talk) 17:29, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
- Her father was a U.S. citizen which automatically gives his children birthright citizenship even if born in another country. Not sure if Nicole had dual citizenship under German law, but she definitely was a U.S. citizen from birth. Since she also grew up in the United States, this would be her nationality. 2600:100A:B1C1:40F4:0:A:7919:EE01 (talk) 21:47, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
Update photo
editShould we update the photo to have a much more respectful depiction of her, maybe in black and white? WiinterU (talk) 01:49, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
I think there could be a good idea there, especially as the current image of her is a crop of her with her husband; there are many better images of Nicole out there to find. 92.17.198.220 (talk) 20:19, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- There are almost no images of Simpson-Brown that have a license compatible with Wikipedia. That's the overriding issue, and it's why the image we have is the only one used. Please read the details on the existing image, which explain it better than I can. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 20:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe, we could just remove the color from the photo to make it portrait like? WiinterU 00:05, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
- I don't know what rules if any apply to modifying the color of an existing image. It's probably okay, but I've no experience in that area of policy, so don't take my word for it. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 03:14, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Better Picture
editIs there a better picture to use here that is more flattering and perhaps not a picture that was taken with OJ Simpson? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yyc1607 (talk • contribs) 04:30, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- It just seems like an odd picture. Open mouth and widened eyes- theres pleanty other pictures that could be used, with fair use in mind. 2A02:AA1:1617:6794:1:1:3C97:DA2C (talk) 21:34, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
"List of unsolved murders" see also entry
editAll else aside, this isn't a great see-also because it isn't central to the topic - we would need significant amounts of coverage describing it first and formost as an unsolved murder (with no qualifiers), and a significant amount of the body discussing how it's unsolved, before a generic list like this would make sense as a see-also. And it's just unlikely that that sort of coverage exists or would be WP:DUE. -- Aquillion (talk) 07:25, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
- If we had a separate article on the killings themselves ... I would argue, frankly, that we should, neither she nor Ron Goldman are really notable for anything independent of their deaths. Daniel Case (talk) 05:01, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
