Elizabeth Berridge in Ann Arbor, MI
[edit]Can I ask why you keep adding this reference to Elizabeth Berridge being in Ann Arbor, MI, in the 1980s? It's not worthy of listing on a subject's biography. Live Index (talk) 17:31, 7 May 2026 (UTC)
- Ms. Elizabeth Berridge was and remains a significant star of the mentioned high caliber film AMADEUS. A simple Wiki ref to one of her 100% public, professional, contractual activities after AMADEUS was released is "worthy" knowledge. True, it should not have been in "Personal Life"; it's now properly in "Career". Representing AMADEUS in a 100% public place is something Berridge did professionally to contractually support AMADEUS (as mentioned before) and she did it in places apart from Ann Arbor, Michigan. However, the photo from a Michigan US district library archive is a permanent visual demo of Elizabeth's personal and public work, supporting a substantial piece of cinema she and an international audience was fortunate to become involved with. Cheers. - BoatCandle (talk) 21:08, 7 May 2026 (UTC)
- My reasons for deleting (or wanting to delete) that reference have nothing to do with the event's being public or her publicity appearance's being legitimate; it's that such publicity appearances are part and parcel of the life of any film actor and thus don't belong on a film actor's biography. I have no objection to Ms. Berridge having a wikipedia page or her page featuring references to Amadeus; my gripe is with this minor, bland professional obligation (appearing in Ann Arbor, MI, to support a movie release) being given any weight on the page.

- Had an account on Wiki since 2003. Tens of thousands of edits and brand new pages, too. Decided to step away a few years ago, left the original account abandoned, came back for mini casual quickies. Hey, hard to resist, right? Funny stuff out there, in the world. Frankly, I've encountered many unstable Wiki edit individuals like yourself. Not to mention your way over-the-top edit descriptions. Your actions are 100% predictable; typical mentally unwell lengthy ridiculous pseudo-intellectual storybook edit narration, meaningless "obsessive" word ventures. A nut clawing at a jail cell. Or something. And yeah, I absolutely knew it was just a matter of time before you took bizarre ludicrous actions and deleted the history pic ref. Again! Was drivin' you kooky, wasn't it? Shall I describe how fucking weird you are, so deeply possessed by a Goddamned professional signing Berridge did, as part of her gig, merely a mention on her Wiki page to visually display and harbour her past? You must understand that "past is past". Or do I have to, y'know, explain? Almost like you've got something behaviorally hidden there, a freaky perspective based upon...shall I say it? Nah. FYI, spent years in the pro entertainment world, so yeah, I know all about an actor's life, whether stage or screen. Did it myself, for a while. Maybe you did, too. And now you're just a loon. Win any Oscars? Never know. Plenty of mentally unwell major actors out there, on a Sunset stair, in wardrobe. - BoatCandle (talk) 17:57, 10 May 2026 (UTC)
