• New GA, well written. Some small suggestions:
  • Might be good to add half a sentence describing It's All Love
  • A lot of character names in the running text don't add anything; a description of who the character is would be better (as is done well for Yes Day, The Fallout). Relatedly, some works (After Words, Richie Rich, etc.) are missing genre labels which would be informative.
  • Some transitions between topics are abrupt; as just one example, ... offer true horror bona fides to this flick". Ortega starred in the slasher film ...
  • portraying her character's relatability: know what you mean, but phrasing seems off
  • her character's actions and dialogue did not suit her personality: actions and dialogue in just the script or as shot? Wednesday's personality or Ortega's? could clarify
  • described the material as risky: explain

But none of that holds up this nom. Photo OK. Hooks check out except ALT0, which yes, seems a little too far for WP:CALC. Incredible QPQs. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 23:41, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Revision needed: "tried to participate"

> She also tried to participate in the March for Our Lives movement, which led demonstrations in support of U.S. gun control legislation.

This needs revising because She did attend. I'm not sure how to find a good source for this. But here's a picture of her there.

AI-generated images from 2016?

This line "As a minor, Ortega was sent explicit images of herself that were AI-generated, which later led to her deleting her Twitter account" is stated as a matter of fact in the article... given the quotation that Ortega seems to claim that this happened when she was 14, it seems more likely that Ortega misunderstands the state of AI photo generation in 2016 and was simply sent a photoshop. While it's true that the quotations are from articles that also make these statements as a matter of fact, it simply doesn't line up. For one thing, Ortega did not delete her childhood Twitter account as implied, only that the page went inactive in 2015 before Ortega achieved stardom. Apparently, she deleted her adult twitter after, according to what little information I can find, people were asking her prying questions about co-stars. Regardless, it seems irresponsible to spread what seems like misinformation from Ortega, that the actor received AI edited images almost ten years ago, when the technology was in its infancy. From what I can find, AI images from 2016 seem hard to rationalize as anything other a psychedelic ink blot. What purpose does the line even serve in the article at this point? Edit: I got it. Ortega didn't claim to have been sent AI generated images, she said "Edited Content" -- probably referring to a face tracking deep fake. But, technically, deep fakes do use generative elements even if most of the product is similar to the originals. So, I suppose I was wrong. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 11:05, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

She was not Jane in Jane the virgin

In the introduction it says she was Jane in Jane the Virgin but that was Gina Rodriguez. Laurapaw (talk) 19:33, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

It says that she received recognition for her role as young Jane in The CW comedy-drama series Jane the Virgin (emphasis mine). Rodriguez did play Jane (the main character, who was in her 20s) throughout the series. Ortega was one of several actresses who portrayed young versions of Jane, at different ages, pre-teen and teen.
