The "Oprah" of quilting, founder of a company which is the largest shipper of pre-cut fabric pieces in the world, and the largest private employer in Caldwell county, Missouri is not important/significant-sounding enough? X[[User: |Ottawahitech]] (talk) 16:34, 27 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

I support this, a quick Google search reveals a WSJ article (http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303277704579349133544709954), a Kansas City newspaper article (http://www.kansascity.com/2013/07/13/4343339/missouri-star-quilt-co-is-a-pattern.html) and probably more. Definitely notable, I will try to spend some time later adding some sources. Mrfrobinson (talk) 17:58, 27 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
@Drmies: Thanks for encouraging others to add material to this article. I tried to click on the links you provided above, but am unable to see any text content. However I found a relevant You Tube channel which I added as an external link. Is that allowed? Ottawahitech (talk) 15:13, 31 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
Hey Ottawahitech, I suppose it depends on the link. I don't know why these two aren't working; I typically don't add links if they don't go anywhere. Who knows. That WSJ link is still working, and there's this from NBC (I can't see it because I blocked the two million scripts on that page). Wait--that's almost the same URL; perhaps the last set of numbers in the URL I pasted is faulty? Drmies (talk) 15:23, 31 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
@Drmies: Unfortunately I am also unable to view the WSJ article, which Mrfrobinson had volunteered to add back in February (see above). Ottawahitech (talk) 15:48, 31 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

I bet this page was created by the lady herself. What a great way to promote her business. Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:30a:2e5e:e000:91dd:9252:863:d9e7 (talkcontribs) 19:47, 9 January 2016‎

Only one problem with this theory: I started this article on Wikipedia. I am not Jenny Doan and have never met her. Ottawahitech (talk) 00:58, 27 January 2016 (UTC)please ping meReply

Unsigned comment by Mrfrobinson

[edit]

I see an unsigned comment by Mrfrobinson in the thread above. I seem to vaguely remember a bot who signed unsigned comments on talkpages. Has this bot been discontinued? Just curious. Ottawahitech (talk) 14:39, 1 February 2015 (UTC) : Weird: Looks like the comment is signed? How did that happen? Ottawahitech (talk) 16:40, 29 November 2015 (UTC)please ping meReply

This is a white washed version of her life. Jenny was previously married, had two children, divorced before she met her current husband. Why purposely cover that up? No shame in being a real person with a real history. This bio is like a marketing blurb, not a bio.

This is a white-washed version of her life. Why leave out that Jenny was previously married, had two children, and was divorced before she met her current husband. Why purposely cover that up? No shame in being a real person with a real history. This bio is like a marketing blurb, not a bio. Jen 4680 (talk) 02:01, 24 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Are there reliable secondary sources that cover this in detail? Note that editors must be particularly careful with neutrality and verifiability for biographies of living people. All content must also comply with Wikipedia guidelines on due and undue weight.
If there is a specific change you would like to be made, you are free share it here on the talk page for others to review. Please include your sources. GentleHillRacer (talk) 02:11, 24 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
