[edit] NPOV please.

God DAMN could this whole article be LESS NPOV? And please, no-one knows any of these songs by their English pseudo-names - they're generally not even translated by HER, so unless the translations are official, please kindly shove them up your ass.--203.73.105.51 18:58, 25 September 2005 (UTC) (PS: Her English isn't half as hot as she thinks. Her book sucked shit and had WAY too many grammatical mistakes for an English major.)

[edit] Don't do it anymore

I think that everyone will agree that Jolin's English Diary Book is a good English-teaching book which can give everyone a good way of learning English, Can you tell me why do you have to keep changing the book's introduction to lots of insulted words? If you keep doing this, Jolin's fans will never forgive you. (An English Teaching book that teaches a way of learning English-keeping a diary. There are 24 example diaries which are selected in Jolin's real personal diary book.) I think the words above are a good introduction of this book. The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drickchen (talk • contribs) .

  • While I would dearly love to have my way with her in a wild and uninhibited fashion, Jolin needs to realise SHE IS CHINESE AND THUS NOT FUCKING AFRICAN-AMERICAN. God DAMN that woman is confused. And watching her with Luo Zhixiang in that new video trying to dance like some hip-hop slut is just embarrassing. Stupid cunt that girl is. Bet she fucks like a tiger though.
  • Because your introduction is way too much of an advertisement for a start. If it's OK for you to be biased, I will be too. And no, "everyone" will not "agree that Jolin's English Diary Book is a good English-teaching book", because it's not. Jolin's book may offer a good method, but it's done horribly and shouldn't have been marketed as a reliable English-education book. Her spoken English is excellent, but her writing needs a proofreader and editor before it's anywhere near publishable. Give a copy to a native speaker - I guarantee they'll be able to flip to any page in the book and find at least two grammatical or spelling errors. And I work in the publishing industry in Taiwan, I know what's generally acceptable, and if she wasn't famous and/or blowing the publisher, it would never have gone through. Now I'm removing ALL descriptions of the content of the book, because they're irrelevant. Plus I couldn't give a fuck what Jolin's fans think of me - most of them are idiots, sex-starved hormonal teenage boys, or under-16-year-old girls. Plus she needs to stop copying Ayumi Hamasaki or pretending she's black. That video with Luo Zhixiang is embarrassing.--Spigot the Bear 09:41, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Just because you think it doesn't make it true. Her "English" books are terribly written, educationally impoverished, and in desperate need of a proofreader. And as for Jolin's fans never forgiving me, well, let's just say that's hardly a terrifying threat.--Sdtetsuo 12:33, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Jolin's English Diary is a fairly good way to learn English; however, it was not well proofread, and the abundant errors that persist on almost every page were ridiculed by the Taiwanese press. It's not important to include your opinions about how good or bad the writing is, but it could be mentioned that the book was not held in high regard by the media. Twocs 18:49, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] scandal

What sort of category is "Scandal boyfriend"? Do we expect her to have more "scandal boyfriends"? Please, Wikipedia's an encyclopedia, not a trivial celebrity site. --Yu Ninjie 11:50, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I moved the text about Jay to a picture caption. I also got rid of the text "scandal boyfriend". 好了吗? --Ce garcon 16:42, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy and Criticism

God damnit. If you're going to put something up that's 3 paragraphs long, make sure not to make a mockery out of the english language, alright?

[edit] External Links

I am adding back the external links section, seeing as decent external links can provide a good source of information to those who want to learn more about the topic covered. Please do not remove them. --Haley 00:32, 6 August 2006 (UTC)Haley de Lioncourt

Right now, the external links are a bunch of links to Youtube videos of Jolin's music videos remixed by some guy called "Nathan Jay." Seems like shameless promotion, so I have changed them back to some more informative links. Thank you. - Lauren 68.112.132.116 18:26, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Profile

I think we should remove duplicated information and non-encyclopedic trivia like favourites. Monni 16:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Concurred. I don't think stuff like favorite colors and bands should be included in the article. Particularly since there's no source cited. Bhamv 11:05, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This reads like a press release

I'm a big fan of Jolin, but the tone of this article reads more like a press release or promotional piece than an authoritative article.

The article failed to mention her boob job, which if I remember right, was about 2002 or so and was largely responsible for this airhead's success. (oh, I said "largely"). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.136.163.211 (talk) 22:50, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
