it says she "started a rehabilitation facility...to re-educate and release predatory mammals." I'm speculating it should say "rehabilitate," but didn't want to make that change in case it is just missing an object to the verb "re-educate" - such as re-educate the public about predatory animals.

She presented David Attenborough with a lifetime achievement award at ITVs National Television Awards last night. [1] [2] I want to add this but I don't know where to put it, in the career section or in the Steve's Death section as she talked about how big of an inspiration Attenborough was for Steve Irwin. -- GracieLizzie 13:14, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
The link "Steve Irwin death film given to wife" seems to have gone dead. Anyone got an alternate, or something? - Gohst 12:51, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
The article currently categorizes Terri under "Australian naturalists", "Australian television presenters", and "Australians of American descent". I question whether it is really appropriate to include Terri in categories labelling her an "Australian", since she was not born in Australia and (AFAIK) she is not a citizen of Australia. (She could, presumably, become an Australian citizen whenever she wanted to, but for reasons of her own has apparently chosen to remain a non-citizen permanent resident.) Comments?

A more up to date and better picture would be nice. Fred Talk 01:22, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
I'm very concerned about the way Terri's connection to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is currently being described in this article. Calling this group "eco-terrorists" — even if backed by what appear to be reliable sources — seems to me to be pushing (if not entirely overstepping) the limits of what WP:BLP allows us to say in an article about a living person. Comments? Richwales ( talk) 05:52, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
I brought up this issue several months ago, but I guess maybe I should bring it up again. The article currently categorizes Terri under several "Australian" categories — but I see a problem with this, since she was not born in Australia and (as far as I'm aware) she is not a citizen of Australia. (I assume she could acquire Australian citizenship whenever she wanted to, but for reasons of her own has apparently chosen to remain a non-citizen permanent resident.) Unless someone can come up with a good explanation of why it is still proper to categorize Terri as an "Australian", I propose to remove her from these categories. Comments, anyone? Richwales ( talk) 06:24, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
curious why this battle of greed and etc was left out. is it against the rules to highlight the not pretty side of the truth? truth be told her public image kinda paints her as well nevermind.. just curious why the negitive is filtered out. I'm no wiki scholar so I really don't know just asking. I'm sure one of the people that can edit "semi protected" stuff wold know what's allowed what's not and what isn't added on purpose. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.169.224.99 ( talk) 01:30, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
adding again.. the battle between them was quite a few years ago, it's possible it was silently settled. still kinda disappointed why it's not mentioned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.169.224.99 ( talk) 01:35, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
tonight melbourne news said rolf harris abused bindi Irwin after a few minutes he changed the name to bindi harris this needs to be addressed — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.148.167.176 ( talk) 12:41, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
I think it's inappropriate that there are two images of Steve *without Terri in them*, one of them directly below the heading "career". Women are not defined by their husbands, whether or not his fame eclipsed hers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.43.88.2 ( talk) 13:45, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
