Early education edit

This article has long stated that Langenkamp graduated from Booker T. Washington High School (Tulsa, Oklahoma), and was a student there when she got her first acting job, in Francis Ford Coppola's The Outsiders (1983). However, an October 30, 2009 Tulsa World profile[1] states that she attended "high school in Washington, D.C.", and was "working as a copy clerk at the Tulsa Tribune" when she got the part in The Outsiders; this article doesn't mention Booker T. Washington High at all. Many websites state that she graduated from BTW in 1982, but I have not yet spotted any that qualify as reliable sources. If not, this may need to be changed. --Arxiloxos (talk) 15:42, 30 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Assessment comment edit

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Heather Langenkamp/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Some POV stuff - "Langenkamp's innocent look", for instance - who says? Needs editing back or giving an independent citation to support the remark. Citation and reference needed generally. Picture needed also. Edofedinburgh 21:09, 20 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 12:53, 24 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Infobox and lead edit

  • Infobox looks good.
  • "lowbudget" → "low-budget"
  • "Award–winning" → "Award-winning" (dashes)

Early life edit

  • This section looks good.

Career edit

  • The sentence ending with "attack" is unsourced.
  • "low budget" → "low-budget"
  • You can't cite IMDb after "previous attempts" per WP:IMDB. Find a replacement.

Personal life edit

  • "of brain tumor" → "of a brain tumor"

Filmography edit

  • Per consistency with other GA-articles, every single one of her projects needs a source for verification.

Awards and nominations edit

  • Same thing with this section (sources are needed for each award).

References edit

  • Archive all archivable (either manually or with this tool).
  • Check for sources in this article from Google Books, because most of them are missing page numbers.
  • The reference after "1982" is a bare link.
  • The references after "youngest housewife" and "Variety Series" should not be in all caps per MOS:ALLCAPS.
  • Mark references from The New York Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Los Angeles Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • People.comPeople
  • Overall, a lot of references are missing several parameters (authors/dates/access-dates/websites) and just look bad, so try fixing them.
