Talk:Chris Noth

message: I removed the German-Americans category because I haven't been able to find "how German" he is. I've also heard he's of mostly Irish descent? But I can't find a reliable source. Does anyone know for sure (oh, and by reliable source I mean something like article or interview, not IMDB) Vulturell 03:20, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The article states:
"Noth's addition to the series did little to enhance the show's ratings as his episodes routinely scored lower than D'Onofrio's."
The phrasing of this remark is unnecessarily demeaning of Noth.  It is not his fault that the superb Vincent D'Onofrio -- who made the character of Detective Bobby Goren both immensely likeable and intriguing -- became physically unable to keep up with the demanding weekly shooting schedule, and as a result Noth was called in as the lead in alternate-week episodes.  (I personally look forward especially to the D'Onofrio episodes, on which I am imprinted.)
But Noth, too, is an excellent actor, and it's no reflection on his acting ability that he can't be the person he is coming to the rescue of. The phrasing implies that it is.  I strongly suggest that the phrasing be altered so as to avoid the suggestion of blaming Noth for the lower ratings.Daqu (talk) 10:40, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Someone needs to update the page with the fact that he will no longer be on CI and that Jeff Goldblum is replacing him.

message: Should the article mention Chris Noth as an actor AND a poet?  The article doesn't mention any, nor do I know of any sources on the web to verify whether or not he is known as a poet.  If he has been published as a poet, it is one thing.  If CN posts a lot poetry on his personal blog and it has a large enough following than I suppose that would be credible enough to include mention on a wikipedia page, as well.  However, CN writing poetry in his spare time is not justifiable for inclusion.  Lots of people write poetry in their spare time, it doesn't make it noteworthy.  If Jodi Foster knitted in her spare time (I'm not claiming she does)should that be included on her wikipedia article? According to the wikipedia notability guidelines:
Treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to its significance to the subject. Attend to anything that may construe undue weight, including depth of detail, quantity of text, prominence of placement, and juxtaposition of statements. Keep in mind that an encyclopedia article is a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject, not a complete exposition of all possible details.
If we do establish that CN's poetry writing is notable enough to receive attention on this page, it is not what he is primarily known for. Leaving it in the primary description as it is would be like saying that because Bill Clinton could play the Saxophone we should change his page to read : "Bill Clinton, 42 president of the United States and musician."
Even if CN is somewhat known for his poetry, mention of it doesn't not deserve the prominence that it has at the front of the article.  He is most well know as an actor on a couple of prominent TV programs.

message: Just looking over last year's comments from @Julietdeltalima, who is quite right. This article remains essentially a fanpage. It's quite a useful illustration, I think, of how too much un-notable information can obscure the odd important thing. Indeed, it's a standard PR device. The allegations which have emerged against the subject in recent weeks come at the end of an article lots of folks wouldn't have bothered to get to the bottom of. This article really needs serious editing, but I for one can't be bothered with war against fans and PR people. Emmentalist (talk) 09:09, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
