Her last name?
[edit]There's no article that mentions she took her husband's last name. Since this information is unverified, why not remove it? I was about to, but I thought it might be controversial, so I decided to bring it up here. Lililolol (talk) 03:49, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Image
[edit]So, 2016 is ugly, so I changed it to 2017 because it's way clearer and shows her face while she looks directly at the camera with nice lighting, in comparison to most of her 2013-2016, 2018-2023 images, which have either a bad angle or bad lighting. So, what do yall think?
Some of my suggestions are from 2019; because, it just better in terms of lighting and it shows her face. Others could be..
A (But it could be a duplicate because it is on her filmography page idk)
B the current one
C (the one that I removed)
Also yall can check her images here: Category:Gal Gadot by year Lililolol (talk) 18:46, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- I was thinking of uploading her Maxim photoshoot for 'Women in the Israel Defense Forces,' but I'm not sure because it's a non-free image. I believe it could be allowed since it would increase readers' interest in the article, (WP:NFCCP) but I'm not certain. What do yall think? Lililolol (talk) 21:22, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
Filmography
[edit]- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- The result of this discussion was a merge. Lililolol (talk) 19:04, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
Hot take, but is she really big enough to have her own filmography page? Other actors in similar cases (notable for a superhero role) don’t have separate filmography pages. Sure, she’s been in a some "lackluster" Netflix movies, but that still doesn’t seem enough for a spin-off article (WP:SPLIT/WP:SAL). Just my opinion, merging makes more sense Lililolol (talk) 19:35, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- If it’s not merged, will the "Awards and Nominations" section be included in the Filmography page? Lililolol (talk) 19:47, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- "Awards and Nominations" section should remain where is. Quaerens-veritatem (talk) 05:47, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Quaerens-veritatem Apart from DC, she's not that significant yet, so it might make more sense to merge her filmography until she gets more lead roles that solidify her as a stand-alone actress Lililolol (talk) 22:07, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- OK merge Filmography. Makes sense to me. Of course, "Awards and Nominations" section would remain where it is. Quaerens-veritatem (talk) 01:28, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

WP:ROLEBIO states that only primary occupations should be mentioned in the opening para. Is modeling her primary occupation, Lililolol? Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:17, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- Modeling? I’m not sure. She’s still modeling here and there. Plus modeling is what launched her career @Krimuk2.0 Lililolol (talk) 19:05, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- Also what is a "spoon-feeding"? Lililolol (talk) 19:13, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- "Here and there" and "launched" is not what primary career means. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 06:12, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

- @Krimuk2.0 I'm not sure, but when I searched "Is Gal Gadot a model?" I came across multiple sources, some of which referred to her as an Israeli actress and model. Plus, Israeli Forbes ranked her among the highest-paid models in Israel in 2012-2013 (this is mentioned in her personal section, though I was considering moving it to the career section)
- Some are here
- So idk, what do we think? Lililolol (talk) 23:31, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- Again, what she did prior to her acting career in 2012-2013 is not her primary profession. Also, cherry-picking some sources that incidentally mention her modelling (most of them from before she became an actress) is exactly what ROLEBIO tells us not to do. WP:CIR issues here. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 05:48, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Krimuk2.0 Well, that's true, but I would clarify something: I wasn't cherry-picking. I tried to pick sources from different time frames, such as Parade magazine, which was released a few weeks ago, and the rest are from 2015 onward, after she gained attention for Wonder Woman. So where's the cherry-picking? Lililolol (talk) 20:16, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

"third-highest-grossing actress of 2017"
[edit]Lililolol, do you have multiple high-quality sources to back up your claim that being the "third-highest-grossing actress of 2017" is "generally what makes her notable"? Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:06, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Krimuk2.0 Hi, regarding her being the third-highest-grossing actress of 2017, that information comes from Forbes. (I think I used a different source in the article, so I will change it later.) As for "generally what makes her notable", for DCEU, it's literally what put her name out there. It makes sense to word it like the current version, which is sourced in the "Breakthrough" subsection of the Career section. Lililolol (talk) 17:15, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- That's not the answer. No one is doubting the fact of her 2017 gross or that DCEU made her notable. You chose to edit-war by citing that her being the "third-highest-grossing actress of 2017" is "generally what makes her notable". Now please provide multiple high-quality sources that support that particular claim. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 17:41, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Krimuk2.0 The "third-highest-grossing actress of 2017" by Forbes, isn't that a strong source? Also, I apologize for the confusion. When I mentioned "generally what makes her notable," I was referring to this summary . As you said, it's not "lead-worthy," but I believe being the third-highest-grossing actress is a crucial moment in her career, closely tied to her DCEU roles. That's why I added it after mentioning DC. It essentially launched her into higher ranks on other major industry lists. Though I may not have worded it perfectly, I still believe it should be mentioned. I hope this clears up my point, what do you think? Lililolol (talk) 20:31, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- The fact that the DCEU made her notable is sufficient. Individual grosses of the films or of each year belong in the body. Do you see individual yearly grosses of Scarlett Johansson or Daisy Ridley or Jennifer Lawrence or Charlize Theron, all of whom had substantial female-led blockbusters, mentioned in their lead? Combined gross of her films, if substantial, like for Johansson, make sense, but not this, and definitely not for the reasoning you used to revert. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 06:09, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
- Okay, this makes sense. I guess I will change the lead Lililolol (talk) 19:06, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
