Substance
This article is in need of substance. What of her business career and her ventures? Who cares about Paris Hilton comparisons. Wiki is not a tabloid and that is tangential to the pertinent matter of this person; she is a business woman, first and foremost and we should really cover some items showing that she either is or is not one. I would like to see information from start to finish about how she earned her merits, career info, and successes, as reported by media. I think that would provide a substantive and well rounded biography. The way it stands now, it appears to me someone has gotten the basic facts right, but we need more meat on this article. If there is a claim here that this person has earned their success, lets show it, or expose it, in all the glory of Wiki neutrality. I think this person deserves, as any biography does, a rounded exposition on what is what. This just seems like a vanity page to me and this person clearly is not in need of that--has a lot more to offer from an achievement perspective, than that. --98.208.209.78 (talk) 00:16, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Spelling
Why is "principle" (box on the right side) misspelled? It even links to a page that has nothing to do with the article. The correct spelling here is "principal."

which 'cum laude'?
on the official site of the apprentice, it states that ivanka graduated 'magna cum laude' (http://apprentice.tv.yahoo.com/trump/06/theshow/ivanka_bio.html). unfortunately, on this website: http://www.golfdigest.com/gfw/gfwcover/index.ssf?/gfw/gfwcover/gfw200611trump.html , she states she graduated 'summa cum laude'.
i've changed it from summa to magna, sry if i got it wrong. i hv no means of vandalism; but this is very confusing!--Sli723 00:35, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Quick Facts ??
shouldn't this be named trivia ? Quick Facts sounds like the paragraph title these trivias were ripper from
socialite and heiress arnt occupations

Controversies
This entire section violates at least two Wikipedia principles as currently written. Each of the listed controveries needs a citation to support its claim as per Wikipedia:Verifiability, and the weasel words should be removed as per Wikipedia:Neutral Point of View. Mobilegamer 19:53, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- I pulled it/deleted it just now, and if whomever put it up puts it back in that same form I'd advise next time having a moderator/editor notified of their actions. Wikipedia does try and clamp down on baseless accusations since I can't think of a worse, more PoV way to ruin an encyclopedias credability (even one that often lacks as much credability as any celebrity article here does). While I may not be a fan of her capabilities, that doesn't mean I think it's okay to slander someone just because they happen to be lucky in who they were birthed to. For the record it also violated at least three policies, it also violated the 'no original research' clause as well as the two you mentioned. If the poster can back that stuff up from an outside source, more power to them and it belongs. Otherwise don't insinuate something negative about the lady just because you don't like her. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.132.156.26 (talk) 10:20, 2 April 2007 (UTC).
I deleted the "trivia" piece about her dating some guy named Sean Oeding. The link was to Topher Grace's biography on Yahoo!, and a quick survey of the web does not pull many hits on him. As if to verify this was not true, the quote also said he was dating Scarlett Johannsen, but her Wiki page and Yahoo! mention nothing about this guy.
So, whomever you are Mr. Oeding, nice try at some PR, but it did not work! Scryer_360 19:23, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Ivanka Trump herself edited this page!

Hi Ivanka
For the time being I only want to make my presence known on this page of yours.

School mates
When did Ivanka attend Choate Rosemary Hall? If she graduated from high school in 2000, did she ever know Angela Ruggiero, who graduated from Choate in 1998. If they did go to school together, why wasn't that a subplot of the show? —Preceding unsigned comment added by BeefJerkey (talk • contribs) 04:07, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, they went to Choate for a few overlapping years. If they knew each other, it needn't be part of the subplot of a TV show, of course. Frankg (talk) 23:18, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Comparisons to Paris Hilton
I think these are ridiculous. See my recent addition to the article. Unlike the Hilton family, Ivanka's dad has nothing but pride over his daughter. The media seem too stupid to comprehend that wealth, beauty and blondness do not a valid comparison make. Give Trump a break! SimonATL (talk) 00:39, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- I agree. This should really not even belong here. This is riding on the razors edge of neutrality and the gossiping of tabloids. This is an image issue and not really clean under the biography standards. I suggest we remove it entirely. Any to support this? --☯Lightbound☯ talk 02:23, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
- I did not even see the date of this original poster. This was three years between. I am going to go ahead and cut it. It does not match with the Wiki standards for biographies. Here is why: WP:BOLP under the section regarding that Wikipedia is not a tabloid and that the issues should represent a substantive view of the subject and not opinions and personal views. A biography is a lasting impression that should show substantial subject matter. In this case, a single set of comments regarding tabloid comparisons between two people is subjective, regardless of verifiable sources. Therefor, I am deleting that section. --☯Lightbound☯ talk 02:28, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Net worth gender gap

Should 'Religion: Judaism' be qualified by (convert)?
I see a little recent back-and-forth over the question of whether to add a parenthetical (convert) to the identification of Trump's religion as 'Judaism' in the infobox. My personal opinion is that I don't see why adding (convert) is necessary in the infobox. It appears to me, not to add important information, but to express some editors' point of view related to Judaism. People are not born with a religion, in the way that they are born with a gender or a race, and for any adult, 'religion' identifies a matter of personal choice. We don't make a habit of parenthetically identifying most people's way of acquiring certain characteristics in infoboxes. I've never seen, for example, 'Christian (inherited)' or 'Nobel Prize winner (undeserved)' in a biographical infobox. I'd prefer to see the religion as simply the one word, and then, if it is possible to discuss using reliable sources, some information about Trump's conversion to Judaism could be added to the body of the article. Does anyone else have an idea about the best wording for the infobox? -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 13:52, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
- It should be mentioned due to the meaning of who is a Jew.--88.104.136.214 (talk) 22:03, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- It shows that, even after centuries of discussion, there's still two classes of Jew, and that they never merge. It might be OK to add "convert" if there was also the discussion of why Jews maintain that there's a difference.Santamoly (talk) 04:45, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
Chelsea Clinton?
"She is a close friend of Chelsea Clinton ... " With the ad hominems that Ivanka's father has applied to Hillary Rodham Clinton, is this still true? I won't assume that the relationship is terminated, but it must at least be strained. Thank you for your time, Wordreader (talk) 00:50, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
Unfortunate coverage of convention appearance
The coverage here about Ivanka's convention speech is pretty bad. It completely ignores the rave reviews that she got - see https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/07/23/ivanka-trump-continues-to-impress-the-media-her-father-feuds-with/?hpid=hp_hp-cards_mhp-card-politics%3Ahomepage%2Fcard to get a summary of all the positive remarks.

Czech nationality should be added
The law effective at the time of birth Trump's children by Ivana Trump (http://www.zakonyprolidi.cz/cs/1969-39/zneni-0) declares in Paragraph 8 "Acquisition of citizenship by birth" under point 4 the following: "(4) Dítě, jehož jeden z rodičů je cizincem, nabývá narozením státního občanství republiky, jestliže druhý z rodičů je státním občanem republiky." A child, whose one parent is a foreigner, acquires the citizenship by birth, if the other parent is a citizen of the republic. Hence, all Trump children by Ivana Trump are dual US - Czech (and thus, EU) citizens, unless they actively renounced their citizenship (which I think is improbable). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.90.214.215 (talk) 17:10, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Jewish Telegraph "mainstream as it comes" ??? Really ???
I reverted an undue bit about Ms. Trump's visit to a cemetery during the campaign. I feel this is undue and that it would require coverage in RS mainstream venues that treat it as a noteworthy or significant event. This was promptly reverted with an edit comment "JTA is as mainstream as it gets". Regardless of its following within the Jewish or Brooklyn communities, that source does not qualify as mainstream media coverage, and certainly does not establish this event as encyclopedically significant. Other opinions please? SPECIFICO talk 17:56, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
- I'm going to remove it. Per WP:NOT, Wikipedia isn't an indiscriminate collection of information, it's an encyclopedia. The goal of an article is not to collect every piece of information about a topic, it's to provide an overview. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 21:53, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
- I agree with User:Avaya1 on this. It is true that Jewish Telegraphic Agency is as mainstream as it gets. You can go to any large library and ask the librarian for directories that list Jewish periodicals, and you'll find it there. They do fact-checking and meet every other criteria of WP:RS.
- The fact that she went to the Lubavitcher Rabbi's grave is noteworthy. A Google search for "Ivanka Trump visits the Lubavitcher rebbe’s grave" shows that the JTA story was covered in the Jewish Post, Jewish Press, The Forward, Haaretz, and other major Jewish publications across the spectrum of Jewish viewpoints. The multiple coverage alone is enough to establish WP:WEIGHT. (There are many varieties of orthodox Judaism, and this suggests that she was affiliated with the Lubavitcher sect, as opposed to for example modern orthodox, which is probably why the Jewish press gave it so much coverage. But I'm just saying that for your understanding, and all that's necessary to include it in Wikipedia is to have multiple WP:RS reporting it.) I think it should go back in, but I'll wait for someone else to second that.--Nbauman (talk) 06:30, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

The third paragraph states "Her other friends include Georgina Bloomberg, whose father Michael Bloomberg has also considered entering the presidential race." It should be changed to "had also considered" since Michael Bloomberg announced some time ago that he wouldn't run as a third-party candidate and endorsed Hillary Clinton, which has been sourced on his page.

"one of the world's most affluent families" ?
I doubt the following sentence in the article :
- In 2003, she was featured in Born Rich, a documentary about the experience of growing up as a child in one of the world's most affluent families.
Ivanka was born in 1981, her phase of "growing up as a child" may be considered as the 1990ies. Was - then - the Trump family "one of the world's most affluent families" ?
I don't find a reliable source for that and propose to change the quoted sentence. --Neun-x (talk) 03:31, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

Identifying the subject's children
Per WP:MINORS, someone who is incidental to an article, but significant enough to mention even without identifying them, should not be identified "even if good sources do publish the name, when a more general description will suffice." So let's remove the kids' identifying info. Anythingyouwant (talk) 22:32, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

But the grandchildren are not, despite one of them singing for the Chinese president (which is in this BLP using only her first name without birth date, and I have not removed it). WP:MINORS says (emphasis added):Do not name or otherwise identify the person, even if good sources do publish the name, when a more general description will suffice." Even if we ignore WP:MINORS, we still find similar advice elsewhere, for example at Template:Infobox_person#Parameters which says, "For privacy reasons, consider omitting the names of children of living persons, unless notable." Suppose it were perfectly fine to give the names of these children; it would still be bad writing to give such detail including the full and exact birth dates. Birth dates are often used to confirm identity in our society, and anyway why would the year alone be insufficient? Surely we do not really want readers to feel it necessary to pay attention not just to the birth year but to the birth month and birth day. Same goes for the full middle names. It's just overkill. Anythingyouwant (talk) 16:19, 24 May 2017 (UTC)
- I agree that birthday is unnecessary. Their names, however, are not. They are widely mentioned and reported, not just in the article I cited, but in plenty of other sources too.

Bangabandhu (talk) 03:12, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
- No, Barron Trump is stuck with fame whether he wants it or not. The grandchildrens' middle names are clearly unnecessary in this BLP. I agree with you that it's a closer question regarding their first names. Of course, just because a parent has not objected doesn't mean that the child has no privacy interests distinct from the parents.

Done Cannolis (talk) 13:40, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
@Cannolis: Doesn’t anyone ever check the history of the article or the Talk before making changes based on requests by new accounts without any editing history before or since? The Sep 7, 2016, HuffPo reference reports (and presents evidence!) that the claim of her having graduated summa cum laude was false. I therefore added the reference and corrected the article on May 18, 2016, and added an explanation to this Talk: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Ivanka_Trump#Mistake_in_article. I’ve now removed the three older fluff pieces on "Ivanka’s drop-dead gorgeous eyes" etc. which were from a women’s fashion magazine, a men’s fashion magazine, and the NY Times fashion & lifestyle section. The backflap of Trump’s first book also touts the summa cum laude claim; her new book doesn’t and neither did the Trump Organization’s bio which is still available on the web archive - third paragraph from the bottom: Ms. Trump graduated Cum Laude from the Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania and received a bachelors degree in science in economics. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 06:22, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
Cum laude, not summa cum laude
Continuing the previous section with a title that hopefully the next editor who is considering "correcting" the latin honors type from the current correct "cum laude" to the incorrect "summa cum laude" will see and refrain from doing so. There are quite a few of old and newer articles out there that have it wrong because nobody checks on something "everybody knows" and, apparently, nobody every asks to see any proof. The "summa cum laude" claim was on the back flap (hardcover)/back page (paperback) of I. Trumps's first book; there was only one edition, as far as I can tell, and the mistake was never corrected. It was also in the bio the Trump Organization used on its website in "The Next Generation" section until late 2014 (and the title of that section is a sacrilege!) when they removed "summa" along with replacing the photo with the not-appropriate-for-business attire. If anyone wants to look it up, here’s the link to the 2011 version of her Trump Org bio, claiming summa cum laude honors: web archive capture June 6, 2011. I could add a short sentence to the article to prevent readers and other editors from thinking it's a mistake, unless there are objections; for the link to the last (2015-2016) version, see previous section.
Quoting from her new book: "Perception is more important than reality. If someone perceives something to be true, it is more important than if it is in fact true. This doesn't mean you should be duplicitous or deceitful, but don't go out of your way to correct a false assumption if it plays to your advantage."

Clothing factory. Addition reverted without justification.
The article is currently under heavy protection, with the requirement that "You must not ... reinstate any challenged (via reversion) edits without obtaining consensus on the talk page of this article..."
Today, I made a sourced addition to the article, about a factory that makes clothes for the Ivanka Trump fashion label. Soon after, User:SlackerDelphi reverted it, giving a reason that does not withstand scrutiny: "The article does not say that Trump's clothes are made there--tenious tie to Trump. Guardian hit piece. Needs to have stronger tie to Trump."
The article does say that the factory makes clothes for the Ivanka Trump fashion label. Normally, I would:
- WP:AGF that SlackerDelphi had accidentally skipped the relevant part of the article,
- revert SlackerDelphi's reversion, and
- simply add the relevant quote from the article as evidence.
However, the protection measures above forbid this.
Therefore I request consensus to re-add the following paragraph to the article:
- In June 2017, a factory in Subang, Indonesia, where clothes for the Ivanka Trump brand are made via an arrangement with G-III Apparel Group, was revealed to pay poverty wages, to routinely require unpaid overtime, to frequently verbally abuse its workers, and to flout holiday laws.[1]

Alia noticed her labels popping up on the clothes about a year ago. ... Alia makes the legal minimum wage for her job in her province: 2.3 million rupiah, or about $173 a month – but that legal minimum is among the lowest in Indonesia as a whole, and as much as 40% lower than in Chinese factories, another labour source for the Ivanka Trump brand. ... "You have to assess minimum wages in the context of the country itself and, in that context, it's not a living wage," said David Welsh, Indonesia and Malaysia director at the Solidarity Center. ... Jim Keady, an American labor rights activist who has worked extensively in Indonesia [said,] "But with these poverty wages — and I would call it that — just because something is legal, doesn't mean it is moral." ...

Buma also has a pattern of firing workers right before Ramadan [because] Indonesian law dictates all workers are owed a holiday bonus according to their religion...

- @Zazpot: You do not have any consensus to re-add the sentence below because there is a sentence in the Guardian article that completely undermines your claim that the Trump's garments are made in the factory pointed out in the article. The article, and I quote directly, says, "PT Buma, a Korean-owned garment company started in Indonesia in 1999, is one of the suppliers of G-III Apparel Group, the wholesale manufacturer for prominent fashion brands including Trump’s clothing." This sentence makes is clear that the factory in the article is owned by PT Buma which supplies to G-III Apparel Group. The sentence also makes clear that G-III makes clothes for many "prominent fashion brands", way more than just Trump. This sentence contradicts other parts of the article. In the article cited there is zero definitive evidence that this particular factory is making Trump clothing. There is no tie to Trump, other than an attempt to make a link by guilt by association. You do not have consensus to re-insert the questionable material.--SlackerDelphi (talk) 17:31, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
- @SlackerDelphi:, I think you are attacking a straw man. No-one here is claiming that the factory only makes clothing for the Ivanka Trump brand. The article does claim, though, that the factory makes some clothing for that brand: "Alia [makes] clothes for brands including Ivanka Trump at the PT Buma Apparel Industry factory in Subang, West Java." zazpot (talk) 01:53, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Zazpot: You have thought wrong. I am not attacking a straw man. Your argument is a red herring. My comment is quite straight-forward and you have not replied to it. The article points out that there is a contractual relationship between PT Buma and G-III and it points out that there is a contractual relationship between G-III and Trump. But the article does not point out a contractual relationship between PT Buma and Trump. The factory belongs to PT Buma, but the article does not provide any contractual privy between PT Buma and Trump. Maybe PT Buma makes clothes for G-III that eventually get to Trump but maybe not. There is no proof of that in the article. It is a merely an attempt to place guilt by association. Also, even if you can get consensus to make the claim that the article definitively provides a contractual relationship between PT Buma and Trump (to which I will not agree) then you have another problem, which is your heavy-handed wording which is not presented in a neutral manner. SlackerDelphi (talk) 02:27, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @SlackerDelphi: another straw man from you! No-one here is claiming "contractual privy [sic]" between PT Buma and Ivanka Trump. As for your "maybe not", this is contradicted by the article. Please see my previous comment, above. zazpot (talk) 02:42, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Zazpot: You seem to only understand one concept and that is straw man. But that does not get you over the problem you have. You have an article that does not show a definitive connection between PT Buma and Trump. I have reviewed your comment above over and over again and you haven't provided any response to the fact that the article has a sentence that implies there might be some connection between PT Buma and Trump through G-III but there is no definitive connection. And your sentence is violates NPOV. And you did not respond to that blatant violation of Wikipedia rules. SlackerDelphi (talk) 02:55, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @SlackerDelphi: your primary argument against inclusion is a straw man argument, which is why I have been making that point. As for my proposed addition being non-NPOV or a "blatant violation of Wikipedia rules", that is as imaginary as your straw man. My proposed addition summarises the WP:RS's key assertions; nothing more. zazpot (talk) 10:01, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Zazpot: This discussion is going nowhere. I am not going to agree to add your sentence which violates NPOV and it ignores contradictory statements in the article. Also, you just keep repeating the word "straw man" and that does not help your case. Since you have repeated three times now, without providing any other new information then it is clear you don't have any other valid rationales to support your sentence.--SlackerDelphi (talk) 15:15, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @SlackerDelphi: we clearly differ about:
- the meaning of the cited source, and
- the validity of your objections to my proposed edit.
- We differ about these things sufficiently that neither of us has been able, despite some effort, to convince the other that our viewpoint is correct. I propose we disengage from discussing the matter with each other for the time being. Sound good? zazpot (talk) 16:01, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

- The article is pretty conclusive that IvankaTrump-branded clothes are made in that factory. SlackerDelphi quoted one paragraph from the Guardian, but not the following one. Here are both in order:
PT Buma, a Korean-owned garment company started in Indonesia in 1999, is one of the suppliers of G-III Apparel Group, the wholesale manufacturer for prominent fashion brands including Trump’s clothing.
Many Buma workers know who Ivanka Trump is. Alia noticed her labels popping up on the clothes about a year ago.
- Many fashion labels obtain their products through one or more wholesalers and don't have direct contracts with the factories. In the eyes of many customers that does not absolve them of responsibility for poor work conditions and miserable pay, and since that's bad for business many labels are now starting to pay attention to those conditions. You put your name on it, you own it! That goes for the Chinese shoe factory, too. Suggested rewording: "... which makes clothes for the G-III Apparel Group for, among others, the Ivanka Trump brand, was revealed ...". Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 07:45, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Space4Time3Continuum2x: thank you for your perspective, and for your proposed alternative wording, which I would be happy with. For clarity, please could you state whether you support or oppose inclusion of the paragraph? Thanks! zazpot (talk) 10:05, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
Support, maybe also substituting "was accused by workers of paying …" etc. for "was revealed to". Bloomberg has several recent articles on I.Trump’s "brand and its use of offshore production". Item #8 in this one mentions "her $100 million clothing line manufactured by G-III Apparel Group" which, in turn, probably farms the actual work out to several suppliers and looks for the lowest bidder. There is also Marc Fisher Footwear, "which makes Ivanka Trump shoes under license" in Chinese factories where the workers are allegedly underpaid and forced to work excessive hours and where three labor-rights activists were arrested. I’ve been meaning to update the "Business" section but I don’t have a clear picture yet of what she owns outright, what she’s licensed her name for, and what her current involvement in all these business endeavours is, what with her other day job at the White House, conflicts of interest, etc. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 15:32, 14 June 2017 (UTC) Suggested NPOV wording: In June 2017, a factory in Subang, Indonesia, which makes clothes for the G-III Apparel Group for, among others, the Ivanka Trump brand, was accused by workers of paying poverty wages, routinely requiring unpaid overtime, often verbally abusing its workers, and flouting holiday laws.

Is Ivanka a politician?
Ivanka has no training or education pertaining to politics. She is not "a person experienced in the art or science of government", as Merriam-Websters defines 'politician'. She is not an elected official. She is not involved in the business of governing as a profession. How on earth can she be described as a "politician"? She is a public servant, but which respectable dictionary defines the word 'politician' in a way that would accurately describe Ivanka Trump? I suggest that, unless her description as a politician can be justified, it should be permanently removed. Philo mornings (talk) 11:29, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

- Since you guys need a roadmap, apparently - her legal name is "Ivana", therefore the lede should show "Ivana". Or alternatively "Ivana (called "Ivanka")". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.23.190.27 (talk) 21:21, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
Writing
The Trump Card: Trump thanks six people "for helping me make this book happen". One of them, Daniel Paisner, who calls himself "ghost-writer to the stars", says on his website that he wrote the book "(uncredited) with Ivanka Trump". I haven't found any mention of this in secondary sources, so I didn't add the info to the article. If anyone comes across a secondary source, please add it to the article or to this Talk.
Women who work: According to secondary source WaPo, Trump's spokesperson said that Trump used some of the money she received before the election as the first two (of four) advance payments "to pay a writer, researcher and fact-checker who worked on the book".

First Daughter?
Do we really need to include "First Daughter" as part of her held offices?
"First Daughter" is not particularly a role of the same magnitude of, for example, "First Lady". It's not even a role anyway, just a title - unlike the role of being a First Lady which has its duties.
Even if we gave "First Daughter" its own section in the infobox, would we really go through the trouble of listing all the criteria such as term dates and predecessors? Speaking of which, the articles of former First Daughters such as Chelsea Clinton and Amy Carter have not received such treatment.
And who would we give "First Son" to? Donald Trump Jr. for being the eldest? Or Barron Trump for being the resident White House child?
Thoughts? 144.136.140.81 (talk) 11:23, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

Are 'First Daughter' and 'Advisor to the President' two distinct, positions or is 'First Daughter and Advisor to the President' a single position?

Replacing image with cropped image to remove blurred head at bottom left

Religion
"Ivanka and her husband made a pilgrimage to the grave of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, a popular prayer site, shortly before her father's election victory.[117][122] On May 22, 2017, Ivanka and Kushner also traveled with her father on the first official visit of Israel by the Trump administration, where her father made the first visit to the Western Wall by a sitting U.S. President.[123] Ivanka also visited the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial in western Jerusalem and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem during the trip.[124]"
This paragraph feels a bit light in terms of important content. I'd propose cutting this paragraph. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cazer78 (talk • contribs) 15:20, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Agree. Not sure if we really need all that. Perhaps there is something significant about that pilgrimage - something about her being in a certain sect, but that should be explained and shouldn't put undue weight on that either. Galobtter (talkó tuó mió) 15:30, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
I removed that paragraph about the Israel visit. I also clarified that she converted due to her engagement. I also removed the line about her father's support for Judaism b/c it felt a bit like propaganda. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cazer78 (talk • contribs) 00:22, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

There were too many pictures of the subject serving no illustrative purpose; I have removed one. Also, I would like to suggest changing the main picture to this one, which is better focused on her face, and is more recent. The current lead picture, which portrays her when presenting her child-care policy initiative, could then be used to illustrate that event (not mentioned yet in the article but probably should).
Any comments for or against the change? — JFG talk 17:40, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

- I think the one from February 2018 is much more suitable for infobox use, and in fact, I find her more recognizable in that one, and it has more quality.

- I'm talking about where it stood before this current dispute, which stood for over a week before you reverted. There was no real issue prior to today. You were incorrect in saying there was "consensus", because the issue never came up until recently, as a whole bunch of sources (as I documented) refer to her as Senior advisor. You're coming off as this is some kind of personal affront. Vjmlhds (talk) 21:29, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
Also, you're the only editor that seems to have a problem with this. Vjmlhds (talk) 21:29, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- Are you really trying to suggest that the one week where it stood discounts the year where nobody challenged it. The sources you have provided describe her a an advisor who is senior, none of them say her title is Senior Advisor. The fact that you reverted the other editors I made in the time with no explanation instead of just changing the bit about the title does make this seem a bit like a personal affront though. And you were the only editor who seemed to have a problem with following the sources in the over a year the version without Senior was up. --Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 21:34, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- That's a you problem, then. If a third set of eyes wants to take a peak over here and chime in, I'd be fine with that, but you can't take it personal when one of your edits gets undone...price of doing business on Wikipedia. Vjmlhds (talk) 22:25, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
- I'm fine having a "third set of eyes" giving a view, but you still have not explained why you reverted the rest of my edits that were not related to the title of role, like the sourcing of an unsourced statement [8]. -- Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 22:31, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

First Daughter is not a recognized Federal title. It does not appear in the Order of Precedence that governs protocol rank within the government. This is a fictional title and should be removed from the page. Awrush (talk) 21:48, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
Not done: First daughter does not need to be a recognized Federal title to be used in Wikipedia. The term need only be used by a large portion of sources. The term 'First daughter' meets this requirement, as its use is widespread, having been used in the past and with other presidential daughters including Chelsea Clinton, Amy Carter and the Bush sisters.

Investigation For Felony Fraud: Trump SoHo Hotel
This is probably a controversial subject, and I'm not exactly sure how Wikipedia handles subjects like this, but I think this page should include her involvement with the Trump SoHo Hotel Project, as she was an instrumental role in it.
" In June, 2008, Donald, Jr., and Ivanka, alongside their brother Eric, gathered the foreign press at Trump Tower in Manhattan, where Ivanka announced that sixty per cent had been snapped up. “We’re in a very fortunate position where we have enough sales, and now we are strategically targeting certain buyers,” she said.
None of that was true. According to a sworn affidavit by a Trump partner filed with the New York Attorney General’s office, by March of 2010, almost two years after the press conference, only 15.8 per cent of units had been sold."

Parents were married
In this diff [31] User:Trillfendi you sound personally offended or something ("Stop. Just stop"). Please know this is not the case to upset or offend you. It is normal in biography articles to clarify that the parents were married. Indeed, Ivanka Trump was not born out of wedlock, her parents were married. The easiest way to convey this information is by saying they were married. So I am confused by your reversions of this information. How might we resolve this? -- GreenC 21:15, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- @GreenC: It wasn’t personal offense to the obvious fact that they were married but more to the manual of style for the scope of the WikiProject(s) this article is involved in. For a while now I’ve been correcting it yet for some reason people insist on putting it back. Long story short, it’s not particularly relevant how many times the man has been married, Ivana Trump is notable for her own career therefore you have to lead with that career rather than that gendered ownership language which WikiProject says. Trillfendi (talk) 21:22, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- The article is about Ivanka Trump not Ivana. The sentence is about Ivanka's parents (plural). It is important to note that her parents were married when naming them. I don't know anything about gendered ownership language, the sentence is attempting to communicate that her parents were married. Can you please find a way to clarify that her parents were married. -- GreenC 02:01, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
- Who the fuck cares. It truly does not matter when describing someone as progeny. Tiffany is no different. If that were the case you're going to have to go through every child of a famous person's article and put this "first wife" bullshit instead of the standard of their job. Stella McCartney, Zoë Kravitz, Lily Collins, Michael Douglas, Wolfgang Van Halen, Colin Hanks, countless examples exist. So for every man that has ever been divorced that now has to preface their notability. This is called sexism. Trillfendi (talk) 03:48, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- I get that it doesn't matter to you, but it matters to people if she was born out of wedlock and the way it's currently worded it's unclear if her parents were married or not. If you don't like 'first wife' there must be another way to word it. I'm giving you the opportunity to find a way to say that her parents were married. It is conspicuously missing which is an open question creating a BLP problem. -- GreenC 16:20, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- It's not about gender; in those cases, both parents have independently notable careers. Ivana Trump does not. Look at how sparse the section on her career is in our article on her - and that absolutely does reflect the sources, which mostly cover her from the perspective of "here's what Donald Trump's ex-wife is doing." If someone is primarily notable for who they married, we have to cover them with that in mind - we don't automatically treat their career as noteworthy. Portuguese television journalist Jorge Arantes, for instance, doesn't get an article just because he was previously married to J. K. Rowling; Neil Murray, her second husband, is a doctor (a perfectly respectable career), but it's not what he's famous for. --Aquillion (talk) 00:37, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

- Ivana Trump is not notable for her own career; in fact, if she hadn't married Trump, it is extremely unlikely she would pass WP:BIO - there are zero sources on her article from before her marriage to Trump, while virtually every single source there seems to in some form exist because of who she married (even in the ones about her career, she is uniformly introduced as "Donald Trump's ex-wife", because that's what makes her notable and is the reason she was being covered.) In her own article, her career is a comparatively minor part of a biography that focuses primarily on her relationship with Trump; and, more importantly, we had to write it that way, since the sources to that article are almost all about Donald Trump, or cover her based on her relationship with Trump. --Aquillion (talk) 00:37, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

Change political party from Independent to Republican (formerly Independent). According to New York Voter Registration Records, Ivanka is a Republican (REP). This is the source: https://stevemorse.org/nysvoters/nysvoters.html
If you search "Ivanka Trump" in the search boxes, her information will come up.

Not done That’s called original research. That information has to come from an independent, reliable source. Trillfendi (talk) 17:10, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
Should the lead section say Ivanka's parents were married?
There is a clear consensus that the lead section should say: "She is the daughter and second child of President Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana."
Editors found the "Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana" wording to be the simplest language. RfC participants noted that both Ivana Trump and Ivanka Trump are notable because of Donald Trump.
Editors found the "formerly married President Donald Trump and model Ivana Trump" wording to be awkwardly worded and the "Donald Trump and model Ivana Trump" wording to be problematic language because it could imply that the two were not married when Ivanka Trump was born.
Bangabandhu noted that Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. do not have the "Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana" wording, and R2 suggested changing those articles also. I recommend that editors boldly edit those articles to have the same wording as this one and if those changes are contested, then opening RfCs on those articles' talk pages.

Survey
- Support as nom, and seeding survey. I attempted compromise wording June 25: "She is the daughter and second child of formerly married President Donald Trump and model Ivana Trump", but it got reverted by a different user back to the "first wife" language. We need to establish some consensus to avoid this slow motion edit warring. It is also a BLP problem, there is no clarity that her parents were married it opens questions if she was born out of wedlock ie. illegitimate. -- GreenC 00:16, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

- I went to Maureen Reagan and found the following: Maureen Elizabeth Reagan (January 4, 1941 – August 8, 2001) was the first child of U.S. President Ronald Reagan and his first wife, actress Jane Wyman. I suggest something similar here.Adoring nanny (talk) 01:48, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

- Comment Some people will say to this "other stuff exists" but I think it is a good point nonetheless. However: Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. do not mention "first wife" before Ivanka.

- Support. It's important not to suggest that Ivanka might have been born out of wedlock. The least awkward wording is
Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana Trump
. Ivana is much better known as Trump's first wife than as a former model. The "first wife" language also helps to situate Ivanka among her half-siblings. R2 (bleep) 19:27, 8 July 2019 (UTC) - Support. I can understand the argument that automatically listing her mother's marital relationship with Trump as the primary descriptor would be sexist, especially in a situation where the mother or the article's subject are independently notable; but that isn't the case here. In this particular case, both Ivanka and Ivana's notability is primarily derived from their relation to Trump, so it makes sense to emphasize it in the lead and lay it out as early as possible. Ivana is not primarily famous for being a model. --Aquillion (talk) 00:14, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Support If her parents were married when she was born (from what I understand, they were) I don't really understand what the issue is about saying so other than some political correctness going on. Implying that her parents were somehow not married at the time would be far worse than any other concerns. StonyBrook (talk) 00:34, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Support simplest language, such as "daughter of Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana". Stating that Ivana was Donald's first wife helps readers understand the family context; not mentioning Trump's presidency makes sense because he was not president at the time, and not even a politician; not mentioning Ivana being a model makes sense because she did not have much of a modeling career. Finally, the reverting editor cites an essay, which is neither a policy nor a guideline, so that we must per policy refer to Ivana's portrayal in a majority of sources about her, ergo she is mostly notable as Trump's first wife. — JFG talk 07:41, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose (Apparently I now have to point that this is not a “separate” discussion. But common sense isn’t common) You people are simply not understanding that saying she is daughter of President Donald Trump and model Ivana Trump instead of saying she is the daughter of President Trump and “his first wife” is ADHERENCE TO THE MANUAL OF STYLE FOR WIKIPROJECT WOMEN which this article is apart of. Read it. No other article delineates in the lead what the marital status of someone’s famous parents were (except maybe Henry, Duke of Cornwall but for crying out loud the king married 3 Catherines and 2 Annes) or which marriage they were on. Not for Mariska Hargitay, not for Sean Lennon, not for Zoë Kravitz, not for Lily Collins, not for Stephen Curry. I can keep going all night. Nobody cares which number wife she was, besides Ivana Trump herself. Trillfendi (talk) 01:15, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
- Is the essay Wikipedia:Writing about women the one you refer to? At the very least we have here a written guide on how to mention someone's parents, seeing that there doesn't appear to be anything on the subject at MOS:BIO. As I understand it, the advice given therein seems to be, do certain things whenever possible without having to bend over backwards to do it. I would like to find a way to impart to the reader the information that Ivanka's mother a) was married to Donald at the time of her birth and b) is not presently married to him/not the First Lady, to anyone coming to this encyclopedia to learn (if everyone knew this already, why bother saying anything about it or even have an article?) Saying model makes things complicated, so I'm ok with leaving out president. If saying first wife or former wife is offensive to some, why not try
She is the daughter of and second child born to Ivana, who was then married to Donald Trump
. This might be bending over backwards a little but if it conveys the point without stirring up drama then so be it. StonyBrook (talk) 06:10, 10 July 2019 (UTC) - An essay is neither policy nor a binding guideline. There's nothing sexist about describing Ivana Trump as Donald Trump's first wife, because her marriage is the main reason of her notability, as reported by zillions of sources over decades. Likewise, Philip May is mostly known as Theresa May's husband, and Joachim Sauer is mostly known as Angela Merkel's husband: his article even states:
Because of his wife's political career, Sauer has received far more media attention than is usual for a research scientist. On several occasions he has stated that he is not fond of this publicity.

Or even better... the son of Yoko Ono and her third husband? Are you gonna change Paloma Picasso’s lead to say she is the daughter of Pablo Picasso and his 4th mistress Françoise Gilot? Not only does it sound superfluous and ridiculous, marital status is immaterial to someone else’s life’s lead. That’s the point.

- An essay (not "THE MANUAL OF STYLE FOR WIKIPROJECT WOMEN," as claimed) is not the Bible, and we're not obligated to follow it. The most salient difference between this article and the others pointed to by Trillfendi is that both Ivanka and Ivana are only notable because they're Donald's ex-wife and daughter. And lots and lots of people care which number wife Ivana was, as evidenced by the thousands of articles over the years that have described her as Dona'd "first wife." I also don't really appreciate Trillfendi's comment that "we people" just don't understand and the insinuation that if we did, then we'd necessarily agree with them.

- Support per the elegant example text used at Maureen Reagan and kindly supplied by Adoring nanny. I think it's important and easy to convey that Trump and Ivana were married at the time but no longer are now. I also can't understand the argument against this wording — references to all the other articles we will need to change are unconvincing, especially since the bot called me to this article, and not to others. -Darouet (talk) 14:46, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

- What’s seems to be lost here is not that her parents were indeed married at the time of her birth (in other news, grass is green) but that this isn’t a leadworthy statement, there should be a unilateralism amongst all children, including the half-siblings Barron and the one whose "parents weren't married" Tiffany, and that Ivana should be described by her actual job title rather than as someone’s wife in that space.

- Comment: Apologies for not reading this thread sooner. My objection to the word "model" is simple: It's incorrect. She was a model many years ago but she hasn't worked in the profession since her marriage to Trump in 1977. It hasn't been her actual job title in 42 years. I already removed it completely earlier, and I have just done the same on Jr.'s and Eric's pages; I'm good with putting "first wife" back on this page and on the other two or not, and I'm strongly opposed to "model." I'm at a loss as to what to replace it with, and I'm the current top editor on Ivana's page. Since Ivana's name links to her page, I don't see that we need any definition. I can't speak for any other editors; for my part, "first wife" was not a reflection on Ivanka being born in or out of wedlock or on Ivana's life or personal (worth/value?), it was just a designation to say that Trump's been married three times and she was

- Then why not just leave it as "Ivana Trump". A lot of these adages are obsolete. I think we all agree on that. The reader is welcome to read her article if they are interested. Because if we're taking the order of succession route Donald was Ivana's second husband. Trillfendi (talk) 21:21, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

- Comment Now this is an actual comment; if the marital status of Trump’s wives are so “important” to the lead of Ivanka, what will be the case of Tiffany Trump? Her parents weren’t married when she was born. What now. Tiffany Trump is the daughter of Donald Trump and the woman who got pregnant from having an affair, whom he married two months later?

And why is it even relevant.If someone is really that concerned about it, she’s got her own page detailing all 4 marriages.

"Yael Kushner"?
Is there any evidence whatsoever that this is her legal name? I've only ever seen her called (both by herself and others) "Ivanka Trump". Jews frequently have a Hebrew name for religious purposes in addition to a secular name, and the secular name is their legal name. Is there any actual proof that she is legally "Yael Kushner"? After all, we don't say that Jared Kushner is really "Yoel Chaim Kushner" (which is his Hebrew name) Lovesaver (talk) 06:14, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
- I have restored the long-term stable version of the intro sentence until the present discussion reaches consensus. Wikipedia goes by WP:COMMONNAME, not official or religious names, so that I think the proposed change is unwarranted. No objection to mentioning her religious name later in the sentence. — JFG talk 09:54, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
- First, I should say upfront that I'm not convinced "Yael Kushner" is actually her legal name, so (given the lack of coverage) we shouldn't use it. That said, MOS:FULLNAME is actually confusingly-worded on this point. (It might require some clarification.) It says
In some cases, subjects have had their full names changed at some point after birth. In these cases the birth name should be given in the lead as well
, but it doesn't specify how or which one should be given prominence (as noted, I'm dubious that her name was legally changed, and she doesn't seem to publicly use Yael, so it's hard to see a justification for including it here.) MOS:LEGALNAME saysFor people who are best known by a pseudonym, the legal name should usually appear first in the article, followed closely by the pseudonym.
, but (keeping in mind that we have no evidence that this is her legal name), even if it were, I would say that if the possibility for exceptions implied by that 'usually' ever applies, this would be a case to apply it. I'm inclined to say that, absent any indication that this is her legal name, and absent any indication that she publicly uses or prefers it, it's just a non-notable Hebrew pseudonym and therefore not something that should be covered in the lead (only notable pseudonyms go there.) --Aquillion (talk) 10:10, 2 March 2019 (UTC)

Photo of Ivanka and Trump at Wedding
Trump is in the center of the picture. If you crop the picture exactly in half horizontal-wise, one of Trump's eyes remain.

Hebrew name in lead
![]() | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Whether or not Ivanka Trump took the Hebrew name "Yael" for religious purposes, it is not a name she is "known as." It is, at best, an answer to a trivia question. The sources offered below to support that she took the name at all are not particularly specific. (What, if anything, did she say on The View with regard to her name?) The discussion of this a year ago was sidetracked by username confusion and I don't see that it made any case for featuring the Hebrew name so prominently. 73.71.251.64 (talk) 23:09, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

In 2012, Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump, Jr. were investigated by the Major Economic Crimes Bureau for misleading investors who bought property at the Trump SoHo. They escaped felony fraud charges when District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. dropped the criminal case after a private meeting with Trump lawyer Marc Kasowitz, who had made a $25,000 donation to Vance’s re-election campaign.
