The Feedback Loop of Saturday Night Live and Donald Trump
editGood article, maybe useful for something :[1] Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 22:21, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

Reliable sources
editPlease stop using primary sources for this article. Plenty of adequate secondary sourcing exists, such as http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/18/arts/television/snl-donald-trump-vladimir-putin-alec-baldwin.html If it isn't covered in a secondary source, it likely doesn't warrant mention in the article.

- The Baldwin section seems very large compared to the rest of the article. Sure, it´s easier to find sources closer in time, but still. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 20:33, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
Way, way to much Baldwin
editFireflyfanboy and anyone else who is interested. The Baldwin-section is now way to large, with a level of detail that is well into fan-site territory. I intend to cut this section, including getting rid of the "episode" subsections. Remember, summarize what independent reliable sources say about the subject.

The Saturday Night Live parodies of Hillary Clinton article have a similar problem. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:19, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Ok, I have now done some merciless and brutal cutting. The section looks more reasonable to me, now. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:11, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Another image
editSince we already have a non-free image in the article, I'm sceptical if we can have another, but this one [3] would be nice in the Baldwin section. Too bad Spicey is missing. I thought Ivanka was doing another cameo, but no. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:58, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
Section on Trump's reaction?
editShouldn't there be a section on Trump's reactions to the parodies (especially Badlwin's)? He has often tweeted about the show. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.229.187.122 (talk) 00:19, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
- Maybe, or just add to existing sections. Some is in the article already, but it hasn't been updated in awhile. What sources do you suggest? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:47, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Other portrayals
editThere were a series of sketches called "Them Trumps" [4] which Kenan Thompson portrayed Darius trump, a Black version of Trump. In another sketch Leslie Jones appears as Trump, in the same sketch Vanessa Bayer appears briefly as Trump.[5]Shouldn't these portrayals mentioned too?

- Do you have any decent secondary WP:RS who noticed these and bothered to write something about them? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 12:26, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
