there's no way kim was a nurse in 1999 if she was born in 1978 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.171.176.244 (talk) 16:34, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

So funny these editors who want to re-write everything and pretend that they have done something. All they are doing is writing fan-fiction and in doing-so creating "derivative works". Take a look at some of their pets like Greys Anatomy or Star Trek etc. Give yourself a barnstar! You know where to put it! FYI copyrighted material that is made available for promotional use is the preferred NONFREE material.(big hint for all you wannabe fan-fictionados who have made a disgrace of Wikipedia24.0.133.234 (talk) 00:54, 9 February 2013 (UTC)HBIC

Could this and other such wiki pages related to this type of show please add a "point" section which describes the point of such programmmes. I would genuinely like to see some description of the purpose and goal of such programmes, e.g. what what the programme aims to achieve or show as often such programmes just seem to be real life observations of people put together. I dont see why these people would interact and get upset with each other if they are professionals with separate lives why would they be put together in the first place. Confusing and seems to be just to make new TV programmes for the sake of it. This justification would give auch programmes some purpose for me. I don't mind this type of programme, but without justification it all seems a bit pointless.

Reliable Sources

I understand due to the nature of the show that finding reliable sources to produce a decent wiki article could be tough but I don't believe this is excuse enough to simply ignore the policies on reliable sources because there is a desire to have an article on this subject. Perez Hilton, twitter feeds, blogs, and gossip sites are not sufficient and alternate sources need to be found or the information removed. 207.216.253.134 (talk) 01:00, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

I understand all of this and I am working to improve this article. I would happily prefer you to not revert the article until. IHelpWhenICan (talk) 17:32, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Until?? Not sure what are you asking here. In order to try and work together, I'll review in more details and remove only items that could be potential BLP issues and or over-the-top gossip. 207.216.253.134 (talk) 00:35, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to say but the quotes keep being deleted so I have taken them somewhere else for safe-keeping. If Wikipedia wants them back they are going to have to ask for them nicely24.0.133.234 (talk) 00:44, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Witness the ruination of Wikipedia

I have been. It was nice while it lasted. imo anyone with admin. status who has edited any of these Real Housewives pages needs to be deleted. All you have to do is look at what they have done here and abused admin. power and bully editors who are acting in good faith. Maybe this topic is stupid but in that case they should leave it alone. But Noooo. Yes I am ranting because I am done baby-sitting this topic and I will be remembering it as the topic that convinced me that all anyone needs to become admin. on Wikipedia is an maintain IQ of 40 or less.(more will disqualify anyone from admin.).

Orphaned references in The Real Housewives of Atlanta

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The Real Housewives of Atlanta's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Season6Cast":

• From The Real Housewives of Atlanta (season 6): "The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 6 Cast Info". Bravo. NBCUniversal. Retrieved April 22, 2014.
• From The Real Housewives of New Jersey (season 6): "The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 6 Cast Info". Bravo. NBCUniversal. Retrieved May 18, 2014.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 23:04, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Timeline

The timeline also contains guest stars, who have never appeared in a recurring or leading capacity and they keep getting put back on the page. Lena and Tammy never appeared in a recurring capacity and are not listed on Bravo's website as part of the full cast. It was rumoured that both were filming in a lead/recurring capacity but on final cut neither we're part of the full cast and shouldn't be included.78.19.51.227 (talk) 15:15, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

• As stated previously, they appeared frequently and took on the role of recurring but weren't credited as such hence why they are simply a "guest." The same thing has been done for the other series- Victoria Gotti, Brynne Baylor etc. They must take part in the drama, contribute significantly an possibly partake on the cast trips. I do agree, since the first episode Lena hasn't played a role in the series much, but follows the criteria of having a reference to sustain it being mentioned on the timeline. Lena is subject to removal depending if she continues to appear or not. Kelege (talk) 15:58, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Friends

If Demeteria McKinney is listed as a friend, then Lawrence & Dwight Eubanks should also be listed...

You are basing this on? Demetria McKinney actually was part of the cast pictorial and even got her biography page on Bravotv.com. Just because Dwight Eubanks attended the reunion, it doesn't make him an official friends of the Housewives. No cast photo,no confessionals. This article is backed up with official info from Bravo, not personal assumptions from viewers of the show.TheHotwiki (talk) 00:03, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Excuse me, do you even watch the show? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.38.189.241 (talk) 14:52, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Excuse you, do you have a reference? I watch the show and I know how to post references and not just use my "personal opinion" in Wikipedia. Comment back when you have references (or receipts) to back up your claims. Thank you.TheHotwiki (talk) 15:18, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Drew Sidora as a guest

I noticed that this was added plenty of times. Drew Sidora was only introduced in the show in the ongoing current season. If she was caught by the camera for the previous season, that didn't make her as a guest as she was never mentioned before season 13 or invited to the show as an "actual guest". Lots of people are accidentally filmed by the cameras due to being in a reality show, but doesn't automatically mean they were "guests". The correct term would be an "extra".TheHotwiki (talk) 09:07, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Eva as a guest in season 13

She still hasn't appeared in the ongoing current season. Please provide a reliable source that she would appear in the current season. Thank you.TheHotwiki (talk) 09:11, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Current Cast section

What is the purpose of the current cast section? It looks messy and there’s already a more visually appealing and detailed chart below that does exactly the same thing. 2A02:C7E:56CD:6E00:F5E8:23E4:4EB4:1EF7 (talk) 07:43, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
