In November 2023, it was announced that Ortega was leaving the upcoming [[Scream VII] due to scheduling conflicts. These news came one day after her co-star Melissa Barrera was fired for social media comments about the 2023 Israel-Hamas war.

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Pamzeis (talk) 00:14, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
Someone correct the 1st line
It says 'actor' instead of 'actress'. Apparently I can't edit since it's semi-protected Triple Doctor (talk) 04:18, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
Done. Corrected in the lede and a few other places per this edit. MPFitz1968 (talk) 17:18, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @MPFitz1968 and Triple Doctor:, I'm the editor who changed "actress" to "actor". I won't revert or alter your changes but please consider MOS:GNL; we should use gender-neutral language where possible. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 03:41, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- Also when it makes sense to do so. Don't follow a guideline to the point it goes against common practice such as the case here. In this specific case "actress" is the correct choice. We generally use actress for women unless the subject has expressed a desire to be referred to as an "actor". Actress is not considered a lessor title which is one of the reasons a lot of the female titles for other occupations get changed to the male title or some other neutral word for GNL reasons. Geraldo Perez (talk) 04:24, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- Outdated gendered terms belong with smallpox in a bygone age; let's leave them there. Female actors are actors. In this source, we find: "I do not want to be pigeonholed as an actor, and I want to do the most diverse roles that I possibly can and really switch up." Anyway I'm done here; do as you wish. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 06:01, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- This one isn't outdated and is still in common use even officially for some awards. Geraldo Perez (talk) 06:17, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

- a (reference section):
b (inline citations to reliable sources): 
c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism): - Has a refs section, which looks fine. Earwig copyvio checker says 29.1%, but looking more closely that's almost all due to quotes.

- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Major aspects covered, and is on-topic.

- Images are all relevant, with suitable captions, though just "Ortega in 20xx" may be slightly too brief. (No alt text, but that's not required for GA.) Images all claim to have a Creative Commons license.
- a (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- Pass/Fail:
Early life
- "Ortega stated rejections motivated her" to "Ortega stated that rejections motivated her"
- Done
Lead
- Oxford comma suggested before the "and" in "for which she received nominations at the Golden Globe, Primetime Emmy and Screen Actors Guild Awards"
- Done
2012–2017
- No comma needed after "Ortega made her acting debut in the sitcom Rob (2012)".
Removed
2018–2021
- "Ortega led the high-school drama film" needs clarifying I think.
- Could you clarify on what needs clarifying??
Question: Led in what way, as in directed/produced/lead cast member, etc. -Kj cheetham (talk) 13:20, 23 March 2024 (UTC) - Revised
- Could you clarify on what needs clarifying??
2022–present
- Oxford comma suggested before the "and" in "style of speaking and facial expressions"
- Done
- Is "the" needed in "episode of the NBC's sketch comedy series"?
- Removed
Upcoming projects
- Change "Ortega is set to star" to "Ortega is set to star in"
- Done
- Needs a comma after "a dark comedy co-starring Paul Rudd"
- Done
- Is "attached" the right word in "Ortega is attached to star in Alba"?
- I believe it's correct, but probably not the most encyclopaedic, so I've replaced it
Influences
- "She also admired Fanning's sister Elle and followed both of their careers as a child." should have commas either side of "Elle".
- Done
Role choices
- "more-varied" doesn't need a hyphen.
- Removed
- Change "in 2021 she did not want" to "in 2021 that she did not want".
- Done
Personal life
- "more-challenging doesn't need a hyphen.
- Removed
General
There's a few instances of quotes following a colon where I'd have used a comma.
- I believe that's just a matter of style and is grammatically correct. Pamzeis (talk) 01:06, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'd agree with that. -Kj cheetham (talk) 13:18, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
I do want to note these are all minor, and not essential to achieve GA. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:44, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Sourcing check
Glancing at the sources they look okay overall. Sampling 24 randomly (which I think is more than enough):
- 13 - interview, but that's fine
- 18 - this is for Iron Man 3 - but is it your interpretion of it that it's "successful at the box office"? (I personally agree it was successful though, and ref 20 backs it up.)
- I've removed this bit entirely, as it's not really relevant to Ortega's career
- 23 - ok
- 25 - ok
- 29 - ok
- 33 - ok
- 45 - ok
- 48 - is "craves more independence from her parents" enough to say "stubborn" in the article?
- It does say that she's wilful, which essentially means she's stubborn, according to dictionary.com
- 52 - ok
- 75 - ok
- 80 - ok
- 94 - ok
- 95 - ok
- 103 - ok
- 110 - ok
- 120 - self-published by Ty Burr, but I think that's ok in this case.
- 129 - ok
- 180 - ok
- 181 - ok
- 194 - ok
- 197 - ok
- 200 - ok
- 202 - ok
- 210 - ok
Pamzeis, All my comments are very minor really, so I have to say well done for this overall! I've give you chance to respond to things before, but I think it's almost ready to be marked as GA. -Kj cheetham (talk) 13:44, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Kj cheetham: Thanks for your comments :) I've responded to the above. Pamzeis (talk) 14:48, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

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 offher 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 clarifydescribed the material as risky
: explain
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.
