Talk:Sable Starr

Name spelling

Many people spell Sable Starr, but her real spelling is Sabel Starr. It could be great if you correct it. Websites runned by people who met her say so, you just have to google it.

Discussion

This page has a past history of BLP problems, but we can properly source the well-known statements about her.

deleted revisions

The revision listed here was deleted out of BLP concerns, but AFAIK the statements in it are supported by other sources (more reliable) that I have seen. It is a pity that the page got deleted because the author was clueless about policy, without anyone having a chance to save it. Hopefully within the next few days I have the time to write a proper article on this person. elle _{vécut heureuse} ^{à jamais} (be free) 07:52, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

I just happen to be the "clueless" author who created the deleted Sable Starr article which I wrote while she was still alive. I, despite being "clueless", have found it necessary to clean up your article a wee bit; I was also constrained to add a citation request as the allegations you made involve many people who are still living. In future don't be so hasty to dub other editors "clueless". Thankyouverymuch.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:08, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

I didn't write the article, I just saved it from speedy deletion. That's all. Don't bite the messenger. elle _{vécut heureuse} ^{à jamais} (be free) 19:09, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

Well, whoever wrote this article needs to put more work into it and add reliable sources to back up the assertions regarding Sable's "dates" with various rock personalities many of ewhom all still living which violates BLP. That was why my article on Sable was deleted. I could not locate reliable sources to back up the allegations. Unfortunately I no longer have my copy of Star Magazine nor Pam Des Barres' book; both of which could be sourced. I was not biting you, but an editor such as myself with over 70,000 edits under her belt bridles at being described as clueless even if you didn't identify me by name. Anyroad, I'm glad you saved the article from deletion, however the BLP issues still need to be resolved.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:14, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

I have since added citations, a bit more text and an image.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 08:23, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Putting back Mick Jagger in Sable's list.

On page 61 of the referenced issue of Star magazine there is this question and answer: "STAR: Sable, who are some of the guys you've met in the superstar groups? SABLE: Rod Stewart, Alice Cooper, The Zeppelin, David Bowie, Mick Jagger, Elton John, Marc Bolan-just about all the superstars."

So, why the previous person removed Mick Jagger, and only Mick Jagger, from her list escapes me. Can we get an explanation?
