Cleanup needed

This article reads like it was written by her agent. The TV and Film sections are way to long and detailed. We don't need a full paragraph for every single appearance. Will work on this. --ZimZalaBim ^talk 13:25, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Her film roles include...

This paragraph is a sea of blue, also seems like a misplaced filmography, This needs to be thinned out. I would gladly do it, but have no idea the most notable ones for her. - FlightTime (open channel) 20:10, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Should we change the picture?

Is this the best picture we could get of Janney? Her facial expression and posture are very strange. Had it not been labeled, I would not have been able to recognize her.

The original source of the picture is Flickr; the same Flickr user has several pictures of Janney that I think are better. —Mark Dominus (talk) 13:26, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree and found a better and more recent picture on commons and I changed it. WikiVirusC^(talk) 13:42, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is a much better picture! Thanks very much for your speedy and constructive response. —Mark Dominus (talk) 01:05, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, was easy fix with other pictures already uploaded. WikiVirusC^(talk) 12:33, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
