==Small Grammar Problem==

This is a minor thing, but really needs to be fixed. In the first paragraph of section Career:
| maxarchivesize=400K
"In the series, she portrayed the mischievous sister of the title character, Megan Parker."
| archiveheader={{Automatic archive navigator}}
This should be rewritten as, "In the series, she portrayed the title character's mischevious sister, Megan Parker." As it's currently written, it sounds like Megan Parker is the title character. I had to read it 3 times just to find out what was really intended.] (]) 19:04, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

== Smallville ==
'''FROM Mike''' ] '''-- January, 12, 2007'''<br>
I have upgraded Miranda's Filmography to a table instead links, becuase it looked pretty pathetic. ;)

I do wonder and question about something though.
In the film Smallville it is marked and confirmed to be the date of 2001, there is a problem here though... in 2001 Miranda was 8 not 5. I don't know who/why someone is changing it back but for now leave it a age 8.<br>
<br>
One more think.... do you guys know the status of adding her personal life to the article???<br>
] 07:08, 12 January 2007 (UTC)<br>
:That "Age 5" bit is reference to the ] character not Miranda herself, she probably was 8-years old when she played Lana Lang, Age 5. ] 13:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
::Well then there should be a notice of that somewhere. I'll put a footnote about it or somthing.
EDIT: Never mind that's too cunfusing for anyone who reads it none of the others have the age. I'm taking it out. ] 07:16, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
:: She actually didn't play Lana Lang; her imdb entry is wrong. That was Jade Unterman, and if you look at Jade's imdb entry you'll notice that she's credited for exactly the same episode as Miranda. ] 11:02, 13 Jan 2007 (GMT)

Why is she so mean and cruel in drake and josh?? She is like that crazy annoying girl you see at school who is a jerky tattle tale for no reason. She really needs to change her charachter
:::LOL Where do people get this information? Do they just search up her name and make stuff up?? I mean really it's not hard to figure out the correct way. I've never really trusted the IMDB anyways. ] 17:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
::::Two actresses played young Lana Lang in that episode. ] 13:25, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
:: Well ok. I haven't seen it myself, it was the owner of Amazing Miranda who said it wasn't her. I've found it on YouTube though, so I'll watch that when I have time and confirm it for sure. But really, if one of Miranda's biggest fans says it's not her, I'm inclined to believe it. ] 12:35, 14 Jan 2007 (GMT)
:: Ok. Take a look here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeOm-_DcQno at about 1:30 onwards. Are you telling me that that's Miranda, just two years before she was in School of Rock? There's just no way. Two actresses did indeed play her in that episode, but only one of them played Lana at a young age. So either way, one of the IMDB entries, either Miranda's or Jade's is wrong. And I'm sure that's not Miranda.] 14:46, 14 Jan 2007 (GMT)

:: Someone has swapped the instances of "Taylor" and "Elizabeth" at some point. I just checked the cited "California Birth Index" and the original information seems to be correct. Perhaps you think that her middle name is really Elizabeth, but by swapping the names like that you cite a source incorrectly. Now, I don't know much about the Birth Index, I don't know where Miranda was born and the validity of the index, but unless you have another source you should leave it alone.

== Stub ==

I have just marked this article as a stub because there only seems to be around a paragraph of information. Maybe this will encourage people with more knowledge on this person to expand on what we already have. I am fully aware that there are basically no reputable sources of information that can be cited because most of them are fansites which appear to be citing this Wiki page as a source and it's all getting a bit circular.

I also believe that we need to find a picture that is under a reasonable license as this is sort of a biography and poeple may want to see a picture for the purposes of identifying this person.

If you can find a better stub category please do so: I just looked through the list really quickly

How do we know her age? who told us. Misplaced Pages is probably right, but where is the source? --] (]) 06:51, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

To the first person, she's American. Yes she does look like she may be foreign or have a parent who is but she's not and does not. There are people in this world who favor a race in which they are not.

:The first person asked what her heritage is, not what her nationality is so telling us that she's "American" is completely useless. American is a nationality, not an ethnicity. And what exactly does "she does look like may be foreign or have a parent who is" mean? Do you mean foreign = not white or black lol?

To the second guy, information like that is not hard to come by. Also pretty much any site that mentions her says the same thing so.. I'm pretty sure it's right. If you need some stone cold proof, try reading a past interview she's done or ask Nickelodeon. ] (]) 20:22, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

The only thing I need to read is the reference that is included in this article supporting any heritage assertion. If someone wants to put ethnicity, race, religion, heritage in the article it must be backed by a reliable source. ].

:I removed mention of her being "of Italian, Welsh, Russian, Armenian and Slavic descent". doesn't look like a particularly reliable reference to me. It stems for "All Movie Guide", a website I wouldn't use as a reference for anything (for example, in their entry on ] - , they state that his father was Portuguese-born, which is not correct). The statement itself sounds like the usual laundry bag of ethnicities that fans make up and spread on the internet. ] (]) 20:15, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

-Can you source this interview? I'd like to know what her ethnic background Miss Cosgrove really is to end an argument with a friend. Of course she is American and fully American, but she had to have come from somewhere. I'm fully American, but if you ask my heritage I'll tell you I'm Irish.

It says on http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Miranda-Cosgrove that she is of Italian, Welsh, Russian, Armenian and Slavic descent. This looks like it may have been taken from an earlier version of this WIkipedia article. I have added it to the article: feel free to delete it.

== Career start wrong? ==

The beginning of the article states "Her career began in 2001 when she was spotted by an agent who was so impressed by her singing and dancing in a restaurant called 'Taste of LA' that he signed her up for a number of small roles in commercials." The problem with this is in the Biography section, it states "When she was three years old, she sang and danced at a restaurant called 'Taste of LA.' A talent agent was impressed, and signed her up for his talent agency." She was 7-8 years old in 2001, and if she was 3 it would have been in 1996 or 1997. The other possibility is that "Taste of LA" actually had nothing to do with her starting out at 3 years old, so which is it? ] (]) 18:45, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Ted Turner gives a billion dollars to the UN, that's philanthropy. Ed Norton sits on the board of directors of a number of charities, again philanthropy. Sing a pop song or two while people eat dinner, nice, but not philanthropy.

Philanthropy generally refers to large commitments of time and money, far in excess of what those who normally engage in charitable acts would normally give. Philanthropy implies not just donating to an organization, but being the primary donor. It implies leading an organization without taking a salary, not simply volunteering a few hours or days of time.

:I disagree with the change and have reverted it. My understanding, based on the sources I could find, is:
:*Ms. Cosgrove was spotted by a talent agent while singing and dancing in a restaurant. This happened when she was three years old (some sources have five years), so that was sometime from 1996 to (possibly) 1999.
:*She was not spotted a second time by an agent, years later, while still or again singing and dancing in that restaurant, at least, I can't find a source stating or suggesting that (other than copies of our Misplaced Pages article).
:*Her acting career took off in 2001 – not counting some earlier acting in commercials – but that was not the result of being spotted in a restaurant, unlike what was suggested by the "fix".
:*So the actual contradiction is that the article states that the event of being spotted took place in 2001, which is not possible if Ms. Cosgrove was born in 1993 and was three to five at the time.

== Accident ==

She was in an accident and broke her ankle. This is not a "severe car accident". The crash did not cause "Miranda Cosgrove fans from all around praised to her" (For breaking her ankle? Good job breaking that ankle! Maybe you'll get a cool cast!) This does not belong at the top of the article.

Compare ] She was in critical condition with a fractured spine, was airlifted to a medical center and had titanium rods permanently implanted in her spine, followed by a year of physical therapy.

Cosgrove broke her ankle. She probably went to the nearest hospital, by car, had x-rays and a cast.

Estefan's section title is "1990: Cuts Both Ways, tour bus accident and surgery" (lumped in with an album release) but Cosgrove's is "Severe car accident"? Estefan's doesn't merit mention at the top of her article. Cosgrove's does? Had this not interrupted a tour, this would merit -- at most -- a single sentence in the article. - ] (]) 16:23, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

There is no evidence this was a "severe" accident (a broken ankle is fairly minor). There is no evidence this accident "endangered her future iCarly career".

All of this is supported with several quotes and assurances that it was sad that the bus driver was hurt, canceling the tour was bad news for fans and Cosgrove was heartbroken. I would not have been surprised to hear reports on costars wishing her well (with quotes) and comments on who is helping her with personal hygiene.

== I believe that the bus crash in which Miranda and her mother were involved in deserves more recognition on Wiki. ==

There are new reports coming from her official site negating the information that is currently on her wiki page. At first I did add WAY too much detail, but then i kept it to a minimum and I believe that is warranted. I do not think this little bit of legitimate updated information is irrelevant. In the future however, I will not go into detail about her twitter postings, I will admit that was a bit much. But I fully believe that this little bit of information is relevant.

Leave it be already, and stop looking to make irrational arguments and debate on verified sources that everybody else on Wiki accepts--such as a person's Twitter account bio and/or tweets.

Why did you get so upset over this one measly edit that is so inconsequential in a Note on a film they did together, when there are so many other *major* unsourced (or badly sourced) statements in so many other Wiki pages? Besides that, 2. I found a , from an interview, so do you have any problem with that source or quote? 3. If not, do I need to wait until after 19:32 tonight (my last post on the topic 24 hours ago) before posting it without your approval, or sooner if I can get your ok as a valid source because it was a direct quote in an interview? 4. What happens if I post it without your approval either before or after 19:32 tonight, because it was a direct quote, even if it isn't in a recognized "valid source" such as in a large newspaper or magazine? I still don't understand with all the new sources available on the Internet, which ones (besides IMDb.com) are automatically rejected and why, merely because they aren't household names or because of some other vague or conflicted thinking on which ones qualify and which ones don't. The Wiki page on ] merely list general guidelines to help editors, and are frequently vague or not applicable to sources that can be both relevant and reliable, with or without a direct quote involved--which I believe a direct quote would validate almost anything a person is quoted as saying about that person's personal life. Would you say that is an accurate statement on using a direct quote unless it's in a genererally understood low level validity of a newspaper such as ''The National Enquirer''? ] (]) 08:17, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
{{od}} 1. Why are you so eager to add this bit of non-notable trivia to the article? 2. I have no opinions on the source but the quote cannot be used to source what you want to put in as a) It did not come from Cosgrove. You cannot take Ramm's feelings for Cosgrove's and b) "one of my best friends" does not mean "my best friend". 3-4) It will get reverted again. --] <sup><font face="Calibri">'']''</font></sup> 09:13, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
:1. I have a better question: why are you so eager to deny or disparage the posting of it, if it is so minor? I just had a feeling you would take that device on the specific language of 'best friend'. Suppose I just wrote, "Haley is a longtime friend" instead of your specific "best friend" labeling, but I'm now only surmising, and won't do it. Although I personally believe you are being way, way, way too picky in saying a person somehow can't have more than only one best friend at a time, such as in a small number (ex, 3 to 6) that meet or do things together regularly. Is that really what you are trying to say or imply in peoples' lives? Why was that so important for you to deny or try to stop the idea? I really can't believe you meant that exactly, and are just trying to stop the posting of the point by any means you can. BTW, all Notes on film/tv history on a person's page are by definition trivia(l), or not all that important to the point of outlining the person's media history, and the entire Notes column or posts on it could easily be eliminated with nobody caring. It was just an interesting point to make on the Notes column, and I never expected this incredible level of intensity from you and the other guy to try to stop the posting of it no matter what source is found that confirmed it. That was going way beyond and overboard just trying to stop the generally understood excellent idea of preventing inaccurate information from being posted that you personally seem to dislike and/or disparage, as the other guy did with his "teen/tween" nonsense that I called him on as completely inaccurate. So, have it your (and the other guy's) way--this time. Does that make you happy now, and make Wiki that much safer from way more important "inaccurate" postings as you obviously insist this one was in deleting it as an exercise of power on Wiki? I think not. Wiki isn't your province to delete or remove posts as you personally desire, and it isn't mine either, but I believe you (and the other guy) both need to rethink your general level of what should be allowed on a trivia Notes column that you blew-up all out of proportion for whatever reason you thought. Save your deletions/revertings for real important errors on the millions of other Wiki pages (I also find some and delete badly-no sourced statements) instead of going off about a best friend(s) notation. I'm done, unless you choose to reply to my points. ] (]) 09:56, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
::I did not say Cosgrove is a tween/young teen. The majority of fans who care that every cast member of every production is her "]" friend are tweens/young teens (though I, for one, am waiting to see her in a remake of "On Golden Pond" opposite Moisés Arias). These are the same fans, noted above, who were obsessed with the "severe" accident (OMG! a broken ankle!) that "endangered her future iCarly career", but "she had made it safely back to Los Angeles and was happy to see her father, her poodle, and her friends." We also were told the status of each person on the bus, including the bus driver's horrible, horrible stitches but that everyone was expected to recover "at least physically". All supported with several quotes and assurances that it was sad that the bus driver was hurt, canceling the tour was bad news for fans and Cosgrove was heartbroken. All of this was "necessary for the public to know". In an article such as this, we have to crop out trivia regularly. Otherwise, we end up with a worship/fansite. There are ''thousands'' of pages that list each and every person Cosgrove has ever called a "friend". That's fine, but ].
::If you are having trouble with our requirements for reliable sources (outlined at ] and ], all I can really suggest is that you spend some time reading the ] to see what kinds of sources are useable and/or consider having a more experienced editor "]" you.
::No, I won't be limiting my editing to only correcting the truly egregious errors. This would lead to a site where only the most egregious errors are corrected: "Misplaced Pages: The encyclopedia where you can add anything you want, so long as it doesn't deny the Holocaust killed millions." Not a catchy slogan. Thanks. - ] (]) 15:31, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

So it's known that she first decided to study film before switching over to major in psychology. She's been attending USC since she was 19 (fall 2012) and now she's 26. Why is it taking so long for her graduate? I ask because the article doesn't speak about this at all. Does anyone know? ] (]) 21:47, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

A fact from this article was featured on Misplaced Pages's Main Page in the On this day section on May 14, 2024.

Why is it that she's been at USC since 2012 as a psychology major?

So it's known that she first decided to study film before switching over to major in psychology. She's been attending USC since she was 19 (fall 2012) and now she's 26. Why is it taking so long for her graduate? I ask because the article doesn't speak about this at all. Does anyone know? Factfanatic1 (talk) 21:47, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

Merging the Filmography back to the main article

There is pretty much zero justification for Cosgrove's filmography to be a separate article – it's not even a particularly long filmography.
