Talk:Connie Rubirosa

"Her legal and political philosophy is somewhat hazy, as her character has not yet been completely revealed" This is a very nebulous, unsourced statement based on speculation. At this point in the show, would it be fair to say she is a political liberal based on her stance on women's rights and immigration? Someone could make a statement about her political ideology based on what has been seen in the show.

That isn't enough to make that assumption. Michael 19:13, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

It is probably enough for an individual to make the assumption, but not enough to write about it in an encyclopedia. I do greatly like the rewrite; if you are responsible, perhaps you can reword some of the other ADA's pages.

Consuela/Constance

The full character name is "Consuela Rubirosa" and "Connie" is technically a nickname. I believe this is significant (although admittedly, minor) information and it should remain in the article, Thus I revert. Threephi 19:02, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

According to the episode Silver Lake, Connie's real name is Constance Rubirosa, and not Consuela as believed before. 08:13 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Without a reference included, it would be Original Research if we included Constance as her real name. Please a find a reliable reference, then you may proceed. -- MelbourneStar☆ ^{(talk to me)} 10:26, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Spanish or Latina?

"The first main character to be a Latina..." and "... she revealed herself to be the daughter of a Spanish immigrant..."

Though, in everyday usage in the English language, the words "Spanish", "Hispanic", and "Latino/Latina" seem to be used synonymously, they are NOT the same thing, and these two statements contradict each other. A Latina is a woman who is either from Latin America or is of Latin American ancestry, and Spain is not in Latin America. I haven't seen many episodes with Rubirosa, so, the question is, did she actually say that she's the daughter of a Spanish immigrant or not? If she did specify that she is of Spanish ancestry, then the first statement should be changed to read "Hispanic" instead of "Latina", and if she didn't specify Spanish ancestry or just said "immigrant", then the final statement should be changed to read something like "Latin", "Hispanic", or "Spanish-speaking". - Charity 18:30, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Not EADA

The initial press releases regarding Jack McCoy's elevation were slightly wrong. Rubirosa is not EADA, Michael Cutter is as shown in the title card every time a scene switches to his office. Connie is his assistant as she was when she was Jack's assistant. I've changed this to reflect this inaccuracy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.211.203.129 (talk) 00:42, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Reception

This section is not written in an impartial or neutral style and contains material that can only be described as an opinion. I don't believe this section has a place in the article. Rjch au (talk) 13:47, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

The section gives quotes from reviewers. The quotes aren't impartial, but there's nothing outside the quotes that's partial. Unless you want to argue that the selection of quotes is imbalanced in some way, I don't see a case here. Since there are quotes that are unfavorable and some that are favorable, the only claim I could see is that they aren't representative of reviews, and that would take finding other reviews. Parableman (talk) 13:41, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Ditto. Neutrality/POV refers to the editor who writes/adds material, and whether the appearance to that effect is conveyed by the article, not by the people quoted in sources. It is implicitly understood that sources are not impartial, especially critics of creative works, whose opinions are derived from aesthetics. Nightscream (talk) 02:21, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

ADA - J.DDA

Altough Connie Rubirosa might surpass ADA's Alexandra Cabot (89 ep.), Casey Novak (109 ep.) and Ron Carver (111 ep.) in number of appearances, though her appearances in LA as Junior Deputy District Attorney won't be included in this sentence: "She is the fourth longest serving Manhattan ADA in the franchise, surpassed only by Alexandra Cabot and Casey Novak (SVU) and Ron Carver (CI).".

ADA and DDA do share their simmilarities, though they are different. One is a prosecutor in LA whilst the other in NYC. Also for example, Alexandra Cabot who has appeared in 89 episodes of SVU, has also appeared in the Conviction (TV series) as EADA, which would mean that she has appeared in a total of 102 episodes...although in a different occupation, and different show (same as Connie). Connie's LA appearances can be included in "longest DDA's". -- MelbourneStar☆ ^{(talk to me)} 10:50, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

Consuela/Consuelo

Consuela, with termination a, it's not a proper Spanish name. It's most likely a mistake in spelling or pronunciation. I believe her should name is Consuelo. This is a very common and well known Spanish name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sorrywhat (talk • contribs) 23:15, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Can you find an episode in which her full name is displayed so that we can verify this (i.e. a name tag in her office at her desk)? I'm not saying you're wrong, but sometimes parents name their children against traditional naming conventions, so we have to use the name that was given to her character specifically. Davejohnsan (talk) 17:38, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

I'll look into it. Sorrywhat — Preceding undated comment added 18:29, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Discontinuity

In Law & Order Season 22 (2023), episode 14, "Heroes," while Chief ADA Nolan Price, ADA Samantha Maroun and Lt. Kate Dixon are walking through the corridor at 21:12, you can see Rubirosa's name on the Directory listed as EADA, though no mention of her rejoining the New York County DA's office was ever made, and which directly conflicts with the fact that Alana de la Garza, who portrayed Rubirosa, is starring as Special Agent in Charge (SAC) Isobel Castille on FBI and FBI: Most Wanted.
