Make sure that the wording is used in such a way as not to diminish her accomplishments.
There have been repeated additions and removals of a link to the Mary Cassatt page at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. The museum's page seems to be useful additional background, but I'm not going to restore the link given the volatility of the page. Could someone who knows the work of this artist better than I do please assess whether the link (and links from articles on other women artists to their pages on the National Museum of Women in the Arts web site) are appropriate or not?

I heard in a lecture that she met him in 1876, so maybe that 1874 date should be confirmed. Schnozzinkobenstein 09:34, 10 July 2006 (UTC).

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Under the horse chestnut tree2.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on March 8, 2011. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2011-03-08. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! howcheng { chat} 17:58, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

An editor is persisting in transferring material concerning Cassatt's rerlationship with Edgar Degas from Little Girl in a Blue Armchair to this article. I have already spent significant time explaining the rationale of these edits on the Talk page there. Cassatt's relationship with Degas was but an episode of her life, adequately covered here. A discussion of her relationship with Degas properly exists elsewhere, but not here.
I have no idea why this editor is persisting so. I can see no evidence of this editor otherwise contributing to the Visual Arts. I ask her to cease her wholly unwelcome intrusions and I apologise to the editors here where I have only made minor edits in the past. I hardly know what else to do faced with this. I am so very sorry. Coat of Many Colours ( talk) 01:41, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
I have nothing to add here. I made my edits in good faith with a view to expanding Wkipedia's coverage of Mary Cassatt. At the outset I determined that her article here was an extremely adequate one plainly contributed by experts, or at the very least by knowledgeable enthusiasts, and one moreover with a rather more able grasp of the English language than I can muster. Other than a few minor edits I felt no need to expand it, though I did spend some time providing fresh links to better images.
The situation is exactly as I set it out on the talk page of the other article. That material was always readily accessible from this page via a hat-note and from the Navigation box via a link "Relationship with Degas".
Placing this material here imbalances the article and is a considerable disservice to Cassatt. I am extremely sorry to see this. I hope and trust that a disinterested editor at a later date will revert the intrusions made here by editors with no history of editing the visual arts and whose motivation and sense of self-entitlement frankly baffle me. Like all new editors to Wikipedia, or so I gather, I find myself pondering once again whether it can be worth continuing to contribute to the project in the face of intrusions like this by its City Hall elements.

Why is the pronunciation of Cassatt given as /kəˈsæt/? I have never ever heard it that way. I have always heard it as given on the Oxford Learner's Dictionary website: http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/us/definition/english/mary-cassatt I would fix it but I've never done an edit.

Hi, would it be helpful for readers to have a section about where her works are housed, exhibited, and publications in which they have appeared, notable of course, or is external links enough? I ask this as I have a number of publications in which her works appear. thanks, Coolabahapple ( talk) 06:04, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Since when has Pittsburgh had an archbishop? I presume John Barrett Kerfoot was meant, in which case it should be corrected to bishop. Rwflammang ( talk) 03:32, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
