She quit smoking

[edit]

https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/lily-allen-back-smokes-after-3587016 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-9021487/Lily-Allen-celebrates-one-month-smoke-free.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sir Phlau (talkcontribs) 00:41, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

These are both tabloids, so unreliable - see WP:RSP. — Bilorv (talk) 11:19, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So she gave up for a month, two years ago? But she had started smoking again 6 years before that? Errm, how about now? Martinevans123 (talk) 15:30, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lead photograph

[edit]

It would be better if the lead photograph was one without a hand and mike in the way, and showed Allen's full face. Ciridae (talk) 08:15, 18 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

(For reference: at time of writing the infobox image is here.) @Ciridae: all other things being equal, yes it would. Of the free images we currently have available, do you think any are better? I can see some candidates but each comes with its own disadvantages: Option 1 (eyes closed, facing right); Option 2 (10 years old; slightly strange pose/angle in my opinion). — Bilorv (talk) 19:55, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

She says: She gave up her career for her children

[edit]

I have only a German language source (https://www.msn.com/de-de/unterhaltung/other/lily-allen-meine-kinder-haben-meine-karriere-zerstört/ar-BB1jLowP) for it, but the en wikipedia pageviews (https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&start=2024-02-01&end=2024-03-12&pages=Lily_Allen ) indicate that there must be English sources as well. --2003:6:33AE:3D28:6829:9C0D:8DA8:2619 (talk) 15:35, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, as that source says the quotes are from a Radio Times podcast. Lots of derivative sources; I've added CNN. — Bilorv (talk) 19:13, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Myspace, Regal Recordings

[edit]

In the BBC Podcast, "Miss Me?", released on 14th March 2024, the Wikipedia article Lily Allen is discussed by its subject. An edit should probably result. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0hjdmk1

Wikipedia - "Her musical career began in 2005 when she published her vocal recordings on the social networking site Myspace; their popularity resulted in airplay on BBC Radio 1 and led her to sign with Regal Recordings.

Miss Me?, 8:25 - "Not quite true. I actually was signed to Regal Recordings before I set up the Myspace - but, you do you, Wikipedia." 81.105.46.48 (talk) 18:24, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(And it is Myspace, not MySpace as it is styled later in the article.) 81.105.46.48 (talk) 18:29, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: this needs a reliable source for verifiability. — Bilorv (talk) 21:59, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
