Don't Make Waves

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Tate prominently co-starred in the 1967 film Don't Make Waves, her first film actually released to theaters, which I was going to add to the lead. Any major objection to "mystery horror film Eye of the Devil (1966) and co-starred in the 1967 film Don't Make Waves" or similar language. Although she disliked the film it was her first released starring role. Also, the link Playboy in the second paragraph should be italicized. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:47, 15 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

I had fully protected the article due to a minor but persistent edit war (see above discussions preparing for an RfC). That might be why you posted here. At any rate, I just removed the protection, so please edit. Johnuniq (talk) 08:42, 15 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Unborn baby disagreement

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I have archived this talk page to Talk:Sharon Tate/Archive 2 and am recording that significant disagreements regarding Paul Richard Polanski (Tate's "unborn child") have occurred. The archive includes Unborn baby, July 2017 and Protected, April 2025 with several following sections. The latter includes drafts for an WP:RFC that was not started due to the disagreement fading. If the issue is raised again, feel free to contact me to help start an RfC. Johnuniq (talk) 21:30, 20 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Pasadena High School

Sharon Tate did attend Pasadena High School in Pasadena Texas because she was in my French Class for the full school year in about 1960 or 1961…contrary to your statement. 2600:387:15:3A17:0:0:0:8 (talk) 14:09, 20 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
