I read an article today which mentioned Cyndi Lauper's son. What son? I came to Wikipedia and there is a single sentence mentioning a Dex Lauper which I only found by searching the page for "son ", but nothing further. Inquiring minds want to know. This is the only BLP of a super-famous person that seems to have omitted a personal life section. What gives? There is no way there are zero reliable sources to fill in just the basics. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 22:30, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
There is a very detailed "Activism" section. I guess you'd have to settle with that as "stand in" for personal section for the time being. —Loginnigol00:10, 10 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

It's very jarring to not have a Personal Life section like nearly all other musician entries (see Bob Dylan for example). Please someone be bold and fix this. The content is already in the article but requires digging around. ~2025-42098-88 (talk) 01:57, 21 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
That would take substantial work to tease that info out of her current Wikipedia career bio.
It would be best written whole cloth from new sources.
level-5 vital article is rated B-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
