Talk:Sara Jean Underwood
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] OSU banner
An anon IP keeps removing the following paragraph from the article:
- On June 7, 2007 a group of Oregon State University students taking a Women's Studies Course created a poster celebrating Underwood's accomplishment. This poster was hung outside Bexel Hall for a few hours before being taken down by Oregon State University staff. The poster was mirrored after "Achievement" posters that line Campus Way at the university. The poster read, "Sara Jean First OSU Beaver Playmate of the Year Playboy June '07 OSU CENTERFOLD People, Ideas, Innovation" [1] It should be noted that the first Beavers playmate of the year was actually Jodi Ann Paterson, in 2000.
In an effort to come to some sort of amicable solution, I've created this section on the talk page and put a comment into the article text asking that this be worked out here before we continue this revert war. I've also removed the names of those involved from the main article and commented out the names of the people involved from the above copy.
So, what is the issue with this paragraph? She has been closely associated with the school from a reader's point of view due to her bodypaint cover and the numerous mentions in the text of any issue she's been in. She became PMOY and three of her fellow students chose to put up this banner. The paragraph helps point out the impact she's had within the student body. It's not an Oscar or Emmy, but it is some recognition by the students and an indication as to just how much of an association with the school that this woman has. I don't see the issue here. Can you please explain why this paragraph needs to be removed? Dismas|(talk) 13:32, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- The paragraph should stay, it is reliably sourced and a somewhat notable event worthy of a mention. Revert the anon as vandalism and warn appropriately if they keep removing sourced content without explaining why. VegaDark (talk) 18:53, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
