FlightTime, could you please explain the reason behind stonewalling an update on a 14-year old picture of Moore to a recent, high-quality image? Per WP:BRD, if you are reverting, there must be a strong reason for it, and not for the sake of it, or else, no article on Wikipedia could ever be improved/updated.

I'm not disputing the image, I'm disputing the process, changing an Infobox image without discussion is not how things are done around here, especially on a high profile article. - FlightTime (open channel)14:40, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not that I know of. However, image changes in high-profile BLPs are often reverted but it's usually because the image is changed to a subpar one for the sake of newness. That's not the case here so I honestly don't get starting a discussion just for the sake of it. The new image is properly licensed and high-quality. We're lucky that the author has made it available for use. FrB.TG (talk) 18:02, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I made a reasonable, well-explained edit to the lead here. Another editor reverted my edit, calling it "unsourced personal opinion" (which is categorically wrong). So I re-edited, this time backing it up with evidence that's already cited in the reflist, here. Are we good? Was-a-singin (talk) 08:05, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Speaking of the ref you cite, the Portsmouth Daily Times (a small-scale newspaper) speaks of her rising stardom, which is fair by the late 1980s, but it's Ghost that put her on the world map, as multiple, better sources can attest, such as The Washington Post and Variety stating that "her career exploded in the 1990s" primarily due to Ghost. Also, the lead is not an unending listing of credits, but a summary of the most notable and important parts of her career, which her poorly received indies of the late 90s and early 00s are not.
