Re: "If you do't liek it"[edit]

It's got nothing to do with me... and I think you stated my case better than I could have. The Manson Family was not a "gang", and the sentence as you insist on putting it here is rambling and not that relevant. (This is an article about the life of Christopher Jones, not the death of Sharon Tate.) Nothing personal there. Zephyrad 09:56, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The sentence was *not* rambling as originally inserted. It was only after you moved it and truncated it that it became problematic. And the info (in my opinion, anyway) is relevant, as it points to the time period when the affair occurred-- while she was pregnant with another man's child. I have expanded it a bit to include info about his "premonition" of her death, and the reference does quote him as saying that. I am trying to improve the article. Can you say that?

Can I say you are trying to improve the article? I could, conceivably... The original sentence was worse, and out of place, IMO. I also doubt this story: Everything I've read suggests Sharon Tate was in love with both Polanski and her pregnancy, and was disappointed that he continued to see other women. Therefore, would she really have been a hypocrite in this way? (It's also very easy, forty years after the fact, for someone to boast of an affair with someone who is dead and can't deny the story.) Also notice that I am commenting on the writing itself; you on the other hand appear to be making a personal attack, because I edited your work to fit into the rest of the article. And shouldn't you have waited until you had your work finished, instead of adding it unfinished and then complaining when someone had their doubts about it?

Confusingly written sentence needs work[edit]

Under the heading "Acting career", the final sentence reads "He engaged in a few long-term relationships, did painting, art deco, and Roman classic sculpting in clay, and had a family life, living quietly at the beach with his children" (emphasis added). This is poorly and confusingly written. The passive "did painting" should be replaced with "painted". One doesn't "do" Art Deco; the latter is an historic style of art and design. Perhaps he painted in the Art Deco style? "Roman classic sculpting" is nonsensical; perhaps "sculpted in clay in the Neoclassical style" would be more appropriate. Finally, I would propose that the two themes of the sentence -- his personal relationships and family life, and his pastimes -- be separated into two sentences, something like this: "Jones spent his time painting in the Art Deco style and sculpting Neoclassical figures in clay. He had a few long-term relationships, and lived quietly at the beach with his children." Thoughts? Bricology (talk) 20:01, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Olivia Hussey[edit]

Do we need what may be deliberate lies in the main article? Without evidence, Hussey makes a claim of what she says happened half a century ago, having waited till Jones has been dead for four years before doing so, so he cannot defend himself.(90.164.52.212 (talk) 02:00, 15 October 2021 (UTC))[reply]
