Sadie Sink's parents are Casey Sink and Lori Sink who currently reside in Summit, New Jersey.^[1][2] Her brother Mitchell Sink has performed on Broadway in 'Elf' and 'Matilda', and her sister Jacey Sink played a young version of Sadie's character Max Mayfield in Stranger Things.^[3] I think these would be good additions to the article.

 Partly done: Her parents are not independently notable enough, so I didn't add them per guidelines. Aaron Liu (talk) 08:59, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The sentence starting with "In October 2019, Sink starred in Netflix's horror film Eli as Haley", can we shorten it to just as I have quoted? The information immediately following it that is about the role is unnecessary for a BLP. It'll be better to remain on the film's article. 119.18.1.30 (talk) 11:12, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you. Uricdivine (talk) 22:24, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

FMSky, please stop removing the chronological summary. Leads, especially in featured articles, are not written with the latest role as the intro sentence. Stranger Things is not the only project Sink is known for, and she was first notable for her theater/Broadway roles: Playbill, Broadway World, Broadway.com. Many current articles also mention this. This BLP should start with her first major projects, which were in theater. Lapadite (talk) 15:47, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

look, i didnt know anything about edit warring, all i know is that all other actresses have their photo updated and if you go to Jenna Ortega's wikipedia page you can see that they updated hers too but its a low quality image. if you dont think that my image is "good enough" then why dont you find a suitable photo since you know all the guidelines? Devanjana Rajesh (talk) 11:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

While I agree it would be great to get a more up-to-date photo for the infobox, if given a choice I would pick choose the older, high-quality image than the newer blurry one. From

ok if the image is not clear then why cant you or someone else actually replace it instead of fighting with someone that tried to, honestly its embarrassing for her to be this big actress and still have an ugly photo from ages ago on her page. Devanjana Rajesh (talk) 19:27, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @

in good faith

for what you think is better. I encourage you to assume the same about others.

You state that the older photo is "embarrassing" and "ugly". There is no requirement that the article have a photo in the infobox. If there is no

consensus

to use either photo, then we can just omit including either one. Consensus might also be to include one or both further down in the article. What do you think?

You may also want to explore finding a more appropriate photo that can be used (i.e., appropriately licensed). — Archer1234 (t·c) 19:51, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Archer1234. I'm not fighting anyone here. Like everyone else, I too was searching for a suitable photo for her infobox. The thing is, I don't get why no one's taking initiative into updating her photo, and then crushing down someone that actually does it. I've tried so many times to replace her photo, but someone will change it back to the old one. Even actresses that are less popular than her have a kore up to date photo. I'm presently trying to find a more appropriate photo for her page, but I feel as if that's a thing that everyone should take initiative for. I got mad at Krimuk 2.0 for reverting my edit multiple times which can be considered for banning as per wikipedia consensus, and blatantly removing the updated photo without an explanation and not taking initiative to finding a better photo and talking down on mine.

In other words, the problem with the editors on the page is that they are quick to revert your edits or to remove updated sentences, but when it comes to actually updating or editing her page none of them takes initiative or try to. Devanjana Rajesh (talk) 20:34, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Devanjana Rajesh, I'm sure everyone here would prefer an updated, high-quality image for the article, but the ones edited recently have been blurry. You can search for a qualifying image, upload it and edit it or propose it here. Please refer to the Wikipedia:Image use policy. Lapadite (talk) 01:54, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thats what i'm literally saying, it's not about the wikipedia policy, its about the impression it'll make on other people when they view her page. If there is no photo in her info box, then people will go "Oh she's not that popular". If theres an old photo in her info box people will be like "So she's not that popular for them to update her photo". She's one of the most popular actresses out there. I'm presently searching for a qualified image for her info box, but it's a necessity to update her photo since she's gotten so popular. And that won't work out if i'm the only one doing it. And also, if all of you would spend less time fighting with someone and more time to actually upgrading her page, we wouldn't even have this problem by now. I mean, just view Jenna Ortega's wikipedia page. you will see that she has a blurry photo on her page, but no one's changing it because it's the most recent image.

All i'm saying is, instead of telling me to find a photo and upload it (Which i'm currently doing), all of us has to take initiative into doing this, because this isn't my personal problem, it'll affect how people see her as i mentioned earlier. It's not even that hard. Devanjana Rajesh (talk) 13:29, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

could someone add the film o'dessa to the filmography part of the page, it recently wrapped. 2A00:23C7:D103:5F01:C53C:DCCB:EEF9:13F6 (talk) 16:49, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article currently says she’s married to a “Yasmin Sink” and has a child. Seems surprising giving her age, it doesn’t have a citation, and I can’t find any information that supports this. Should this be removed? Possible vandalism from a fan? 86.27.245.50 (talk) 20:43, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It may not necessarily be Vandalism. The editor who wrote that could have possibly read it on a fake site (there are all kinds of sites that have all sorts of fake news about celebrities), and probably thought that it was real information, and added it because they thought it was true. 70.50.199.125 (talk) 04:48, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Take a fresh look at some of the paragraphs, which could benefit from variance in sentence length and sometimes sentence starts. Only a few grammar errors. Ping me when done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:56, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pamzeis Just making sure: you think you've tackled everything? Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 20:59, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for not responding earlier, but I believe I've resolved all your comments. Lemme know if there's anything else!​ Pamzeis (talk) 05:01, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

• She began acting at age seven in local theater productions, and played the title role in Annie (2012–14) One subject, no comma
  WP:CINS
• They would often recreate scenes from High School Musical (2006); and watch Broadway plays and Tony Award performances. Incorrect use of a semicolon
• Try and vary the starts of sentences: sometimes three sentences in a row start "She" or "Sink"
• Reflow some paragraphs that feel a little jammed with unrelated content
• while the Los Angeles Times's Justin Chang found her emotional intensity "impressive", but felt her role was poorly written Drop the comma

Sourcing and spot checks

• 6: Glamour story lists siblings and contains the "step out of being a kid on screen" quote. Y
• 37: IGN comment is correctly reproduced. Y
• 45: W story on Sink's return to S3 of Stranger Things. Y
• 48 + 49: Sink joining the second half; the first ref mentions the trilogy more. Y
• 54: It only fuels Ziggy’s anger at the world and herself, and Sink’s intense performance gets a great deal of volume out of this one note. Y
• 57: Looks like this sentence really could stand with only 58, but no issues with the ref if needed elsewhere for this topic. Y
• 65: Across nine episodes, which were released in two parts on May 27 and July 1... Y
• 68: stars like Millie Bobby Brown and Sadie Sink (the clear standout of the fourth season) remained snubbed one of several acclaim examples Y
• 71 as a citebundle of 67–70, instead reviewing
  • 70: While Stranger Things is led by an ensemble of fantastic young talent, Sink comes out as such a clear breakout that the strangest thing of all would be her not getting some serious recognition come award season. Y
• 74: Saturn Award nomination. Y
• 101: I made the switch almost five years ago after I worked with Woody Harrelson on a movie. He’s a very passionate vegan and his entire family is vegan as well, so by spending time with them, I was able to learn that a vegan lifestyle is totally doable and it’s not as hard as it may seem. Y
• 122: Woods Hole win for Dear Zoe. Y

Earwig flags a few quotes, but nothing of concern.

Images

There are three images, all CC-licensed from various festivals. Encouragement: Alt text of "Refer to caption" probably suffices.
