There's a 2002 article about Lyse on the Guardian web site: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2002/jan/08/broadcasting.bbc
Would it be appropriate to link to it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dinch ( talk • contribs) 22:37, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
I don't know where the idea comes from that LD "is almost unknown to the domestic British audience". She is a regular correspondent for BBC News 24 (TV) and BBC Radio 4, and also appears on BBC news bulletins on other BBC channels, especially if a Middle East story is current.
The BBC has had an integrated news operation for several years now and reporters provide material for all BBC domestic and international channels including online services. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.176.142.11 ( talk) 15:46, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
I've added a disambiguation reference to Élise Lucet because, with Lyse Doucet's name following a French manner of pronunciation, the names sound confusingly similar. Philh-591 ( talk) 17:00, 24 December 2019 (UTC)
Especially the introduction and Early Life and education paragraphs read a lot like a linkedin intro, leading me to believe that the article has at least in part been created by LD herself. While this is not really an issue in principle, adding comments like "Doucet speaks English and French (and is always trying to improve her Dari and Arabic.)" seems like a misuse of Wikipedia. (Note there are no sources for this claim either.) Archach ( talk) 02:07, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
This is undoubtedly written and curated by the subject, parts read like a CV. Nothing on her personal life for example. These types of CV wiki pages should be improved or deleted. Rustygecko ( talk) 19:58, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
Is there any supporting text in the article for this Category? Thanks. Martinevans123 ( talk) 12:45, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
On the radio this morning, she introduced herself as leeze. 86.4.118.201 ( talk) 10:13, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
