The article displays the name of their son but not their daughter...from a cursory search I cannot find it... -- Schultkl ( talk) 00:21, 13 July 2014 (UTC)
Birth date It says she is due to give birth in Nov 08, when was this article last updated??? 121.98.167.23 ( talk) 06:33, 27 January 2009 (UTC) Gareth
A BS in biology doesn't make you a biologist-- you have to actually do some biology. The article indicates that she was some sort of stock analyst, and then started a company. This would make her a businesswoman. Analyzing GM stock doesn't make you an automotive engineer; founding a software company doesn't make you a computer scientist.

Why is her ethnicity listed on her brief profile? If ethnicity is important information in general, why isn't the ethnicity of her husband, Sergey Brin, also listed? Glai ( talk) 14:19, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
I being voted Most Likely to Succeed in your high school yearbook really something that belongs in the article? I can see it's cited, but it seems like an encyclopedia article is not really the best place to talk about what one's teenage classmates thought of one. — mako ๛ 15:20, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
Most of the editors who worked on this article (per the talk page), have been banned, so I am doing what I can to provide sources that aren't directly from 23andme. I've added two, from the New York Times and SE Roundtable.
Here's a third, which could be included as an "External links" section, should anyone wish to do so:
Rise of the Young Philanthropists (2013).

I have reverted edits related to recent developments at 23andMe by Caneprig to avoid redundant and conflicting content on Wikipedia, in line with WP:CONTENTFORK and WP:BRD. These developments are covered thoroughly in the 23andMe article and selective coverage of the facts here is likely to be unbalanced and misleading. Caneprig has reverted my revert without any talk page discussion (BRR, i.e. edit warring).
Caneprig has also since added contentious material based on a tabloid source, which I will now remove in line with WP:BLPREMOVE, WP:BLPSOURCES and WP:BRD. Helen Online 13:50, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
It's everywhere on Wikipedia. In this article too: "She is the former wife of Google Co-Founder Sergey Brin." "It was reported on March 23, 2016 that Alex Rodriguez has been dating Wojcicki."
I changed them to: "She was formerly married to Google Co-Founder Sergey Brin." "It was reported on March 23, 2016 that Wojcicki has been dating professional baseball player Alex Rodriguez."
I find it amusing that in her own article, she is the figurative object of both of the original sentences, and also the grammatical object of the second. I wonder how often this type of subtle gender bias appears in Wikipedia articles in general. My guess would be fairly often, considering 87% of wikipedia editors are male. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.210.190.116 ( talk) 01:48, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello all!
This article has been chosen as this week's effort for WP:Discord's #team-b-vital channel, a collaborate effort to bring Vital articles up to a B class if possible, similar to WP:Articles for Improvement. This effort will run for up to seven days, ending early if the article is felt to be at B-class or impossible to further improve. Articles are chosen by a quick vote among interested chatters, with the goal of working together on interesting Vital articles that need improving.
Thank you! -- ferret ( talk) 00:00, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
