Portrait-photos and pictures

Portrait and action pictures are always nice. Do a Google-search and there must be a googol of her pictures. — Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 17:16, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on MacKenzie Bezos. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20150310133421/http://www.hotchkiss.org/alumni/Accomplishments.aspx to http://www.hotchkiss.org/alumni/Accomplishments.aspx

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

This message was posted before February 2018. After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals. This message is updated dynamically through the template {{source check}} (last update: 5 June 2024).

Divorce

I understand that MacKenzie and Jeff Bezos have announced their intent to divorce, but shouldn't the infobox be updated when the divorce officially happens, rather than when their intent to divorce is revealed on Twitter? goose121 (talk) 16:28, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No. "Bezos to divorce" and "Bezos divorced" are two different things. They're not divorced until they are. Simple facts. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 18:38, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Once again, Marital separation is not divorce. It is incorrect to say their marriage began in 1993 and ended in 2019. They are still married. This is just how fact are. Words mean things. Marriage is marriage. Divorce is divorce. Separation is people who *are* *still* *married* not living together. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:23, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Getting rid of Bezos in her name

Should we remove Bezos from her name since she divorced him?Iamreallygoodatcheckers (talk) 02:13, 11 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sources still say her last name as Bezos, so it should be assumed that she didn't change it back.—Naddruf (talk ~ contribs) 14:50, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

On her Medium Account, she is going by MacKenzie Scott now. It should be assumed that she doesn't want her surname to be Bezos. FunksBrother (talk) 18:07, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've just moved the page to account for this change, which is documented in a plethora of reliable sources. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 19:29, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Headshot in the infobox

Is the current headshot in the infobox necessary? It's pixelated and is hardly informative. The full picture is below in the article already, so it seems unnecessary. I would suggest we remove it.Central Midfielder (talk) 20:17, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. There's probably a much better picture in commons somewhere. BlacknoseDace (talk) 13:20, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree too, but cannot find any other pictures of her in Commons.--FeralOink (talk) 18:23, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the image. There's a line somewhere where an image is too poor to be used in a Wikipedia article, and that is far too blurry to be used. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 19:29, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Isnt any picture better than nothing? Jimboen (talk) 16:31, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should include the full picture somewhere in the article. Smasongarrison (talk) 02:26, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

venture philanthropy

Link the lede in the bio to venture philanthropy, it has it's own page for people who may be interested in learning what differentiates it from regular philanthropy.72.174.71.134 (talk) 16:50, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recent changes

I've done a fair bit of editing to the article, trying to make it clearer, easier to read and more neutral. Am happy to discuss any of my edits. There's much more potential for this article, but I'm short on time, so this is the best I can do right now. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 04:45, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

New Photo

the current photo is terrible, she's a very prominent figure and deserves something of at LEAST 1080p Equirax (talk) 02:30, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I got an email from you

Good evening, I'm Ardiansyah, I'm from Indonesia. Thank you for contacting me late. Your article is very interesting. I hope that in the future it will improve to make better articles. Ardits29 (talk) 14:27, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

From whom did you get an email? Perhaps you should be replying to the email itself. Peaceray (talk) 21:34, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
