Talk:Daniel Radcliffe/Archive 1

message: This rumor pops up just about yearly that Daniel Radcliffe is going to UVA.  The cite for that is this article () which says nothing about him going to University of Virginia.  Moreover there's no entry for him on the People search () which has entries for all students, staff and faculty (and 2007 students are already listed).  Can anyone verify this?  Otherwise I suggest the notation be removed. 24.211.156.245 04:43, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I think we ought to mention how short this guy is. He is around 5'6, and is a lot shorter than just about everyone in his movies. He also definitely uses shoes to try to make him seem taller, so it would be worth noting.
Apparently he hasnt grown since the second movie really. Worth mentioning since in the novels Harry is supposed to be quite tall, growing a lot, albeit not as tall as Ron, but not conspicuously short as Daniel definitely is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.81.254.59 (talk • contribs) 13:13, 28 April 2007
In a recent 2007 interview he states he's around 5'6". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.81.176.164 (talk • contribs) 11:24, 3 May 2007
I agree that this is worth mentioning, as long as it is properly cited. Faithlessthewonderboy 02:12, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see this as such a big issue. Rupert Grint (aka Ron) is not as tall in the movies as he is in the books (compare his height to Fred and George) either. The only way I can see it being included is if it, as Faithlessthewonderboy said, is properly cited and it actually makes sense rather than being lumped in on its own or shoved in the trivia section. dr.alf 02:27, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have no opinion on including or excluding it (it's 5'5"), but it is indeed properly cited (if you check the html in the infobox, which still contains height, even though it doesn't show up) Tell-Tale Ghost 04:36, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Is there any point in having the bit about house prices in the article? It is (a) uncertain if this is meant to be expensive or cheap (in the context of Fulham) and (b) likely to vary rapidly (and when is "currently" anyway)? -- I suggest we delete that bit. -- SGBailey 23:15 Jan 22, 2003 (UTC)
:I made a small attempt to tidy the article up a while back, and there were a few things I thought seemed a bit silly, including the bit about the "£730,000 home", but I usually leave things alone unless I can think of a better replacement. The only reference I can find right now for the statement is a profile on a fan site called "The Radcliffe Realm", which says, "Home: £730,000 house in Fulham, W.London, England, UK - postcode: SW6". It probably comes from some newspaper article originally, but without a better reference and a timeframe it should probably go regardless of whether it has a point or not. However, I think it would become quite interesting if verified and put into context, as it would give some idea of the type of background he came from before he became a millionaire. -- Oliver PEREIRA 00:11 Jan 23, 2003 (UTC)
:If Mr. Radcliffe's house price is to be mentioned, perhaps we could also add that he goes to City of London School (CLS), and that his 'classmates' are known to  throw items at him, shouting "magic that away, wizard boy!"? Similarly inane comments seem somewhat out of place in an encyclopaedia... BTW, house prices in SW6 might be of some interest for purposes of house-price contrast.
: -- jdforrester 23:42 Apr 18, 2003 (BST)
Thanks for that link, Mr. Forrester. I think since the sentence about Mr. Radcliffe's house and dogs has no timeframe, and can't be entirely confirmed from reliable sources, I'll move it here for now, until I can think of something better to do with it. (The family currently live in a £730,000 home in Fulham, a suburb of London, with two border collies named Binka and Nugget.) However, I disagree that information about his background is "inane". His education would certainly be a good thing to include, and I'd put the name of his school into the article, except that I can't find a reference for it. I don't suppose you could cite one, could you? If you don't want me to put it in, you can always decline to answer, but I think it would be interesting. -- Oliver P. 12:31 25 May 2003 (UTC)
: Whoops, this is what happens when you don't watch a page that others reply to. No, I don't have a reference per se, I know people who are schoolmates of him...
: James F. 17:06 10 Jun 2003 (UTC)

message: This article says Daniel Jacob Radcliffe, IMDb says Daniel Alan Radcliffe. Which one is correct? Google doesn't seem to give a definite answer either. Apparently one of them is a widespread misconception; the question is: which one? — Timwi 16:13, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
thread_title:  His middle name 

message: "He is currently single (6/05)"...  Mayhaps its just me, but for an entry on a not yet sixteen year-old actor, this strikes me as both unnecessary (apart from truly high profile cases that have made the tabloids, it seems most wiki actor entries don't necessarily stress if any living actor is currently single, let alone give a date for that status) and just a tad unnerving. Any thoughts on this? 
Aleal 2 July 2005 15:56 (UTC)
:"Yea I agree the comment on the fact that “Daniel is currently single” is out of place. The guy is what 15 - 16 years of age? ...  Two years from it be would be somewhat reasonable. However at this point to publish such things is just ridiculous. I just hope that fame won’t spoil him or his life, because he’s a normal person just like all of us.” Maria 12 July 2005 1:54 (GMT-05:00)
Totally agree that Dan's current 'single' status is just a sad reflection of what we have come to expect from the tabloids.  Leave it out.  This entry should be about his career, not lewd speculation on how much his house is worth, his love life or (worst of all), whether he was bullied at school. Dear God, the boy is under enough scrutiny as it is.  Can't we respect his privacy here in what is supposed to be an encyclopaedia, a collection of facts, not a collection of sordid and trivial gossip?

text:  Although both the U.S. and UK Dan Radcliffe websites clearly state that they are "unofficial" (Dan does not have an "official" website), they are the only fansites that Dan, personally; his father, Alan Radcliffe; and Dan's publicist, Vanessa Davies, work with directly - and this close working/family relationship has existed among them for years. Alan Radcliffe is Dan's agent and, before posting any major announcements, the webmistresses of both websites (Jenna and Page) confirm the information through Dan's publicist. Occasionally, Alan Radcliffe has asked the websites to post a personal message to fans on behalf of the Radcliffe family when something of particular importance or concern has occurred, such as an incident that occurred at the Radcliffe home several years ago. All of this information and more is housed in the archives on each of the websites and is available to read. Jenna (danradcliff.com) and Page (danradcliffe.co.uk) respectively, conducted exclusive interviews with Dan in the U.S. and UK during the promotional tours surrounding both the release of "Order of the Phoenix" in July and "December Boys" in September. Dan also recently videotaped a unique personal message of thanks directed to the fans of each of the two websites (and only those websites). You can view these personal message videos on each of the websites. Dan has mentioned in recent interviews during the release of "December Boys" how fortunate he is to have both danradcliffe.com and danradcliffe.co.uk always representing his best interests, and publicly thanked both websites and their U.S. and UK fans for their ongoing support, especially during 2007, which was a a very challenging year for him in the media. These two websites are as close to "official" as it gets.

Dan Radcliffe joins £16,000 a year school
Harry Potter star, Daniel Radcliffe has started as a pupil at a boarding school which is the spitting image of Hogwarts.
The 15-year-old now attends the exclusive £16,000-a-year Shiplake College, set in Oxfordshire woodland.
Shiplake is known as a school for the rich and the famous - George Harrison's son, Dhani, was a pupil.
A close friend of Daniel said: "Shiplake is certainly big on drama and theatre lessons. It is well-known for its excellence in the arts and Daniel is fitting in very well."

 "Generally, in modern secular usage, Jews include three groups: people who practice Judaism and have a Jewish ethnic background (sometimes including those who do not have strictly matrilineal descent), people without Jewish parents who have converted to Judaism; and those Jews who, while not practicing Judaism as a religion, still identify themselves as Jewish by virtue of their family's Jewish descent and their own cultural and historical identification with the Jewish people."

message: At different articles off Wikpedia and at different times in the course of this article the 'act in which Radcliffe appears nude' is sometimes reffered to as a 'sex scene'. Articles outside wikipedia say things like 'full-frontal sex'.
So which is it? Does he appear nude? Or is he actually having sex onstage? I mean, what exactly is he doing? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.90.158.77 (talk) 07:59, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I'd like to see an update on Dan's involvement in charity projects in this article.  Dan is currently participating in project for  Charity Projects Entertainment Fund (CPEF) and his segment will be televised in American Idol on April 25, 2007.

message: The home page for Dan's favorite charity is Demelza House. One can make donations specifically on behalf of Dan from either of his official websites: Dan Radcliffe U.S. or Dan Radcliffe U.K. Dan has specifically requested that his fans make donations to Demelza House in lieu of sending him gifts for his birthday or Christmas.

message: Doesn't anyone else think that Daniel Radcliffe's role in David Copperfield is noteable (infobox), because it was one of the main parts, and people are familiar with that. I think it should go in the infobox. Lradrama 10:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The Daniel Radcliffe article gets vandalised on a rather large scale and I'm sure lots of you have noticed. There are lots of people who revert this vandalism, which is good to see. But only the RC Patrol regulars (and MartinBot of course) actually warn the vandals and tell them to stop vandalising Wikipedia. Can the rest of you please consider it too? It's only right, and it lets vandals know what is accepted and what isn't. Thank you, Lradrama 10:18, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

message: A recent edit said Details revealed Radcliffe was a smoker.  Note that's not what the article said.  What it said is that he smoked in Equus and December Boys.  Linking this here in case the prior comment is reverted back into the article.  -FeralDruid 07:41, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actors who are required to smoke in various roles may well not smoke in real life - that is quite a common occurance. It is just one of the things that has to be done in that profession (similar with kissing, sex scenes, stunts - although stunt men are often employed!) Actors also have the option to smoke 'herbal cigarettes' if they are that frightened of putting the smouldering stick in their mouth ;-) Lradrama 15:25, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

text: In recent interviews during his promotional tour for "December Boys", Dan clarified that he is not a smoker in his personal life and that when required to smoke for scenes such as in "Equus" and "December Boys", he used herbal cigarettes.  He further commented that they're quite nasty tasting, but must be inhaled, as otherwise too much smoke is expelled which doesn't look convincing on stage or screen.

thread_title: Good article nomination failed

message: I wondered if someone has noticed (or if it is just my ignorance) that the "Early Life" section sounds more like a prank than real facts? Especially information about he and Emma Watson, the neighbour catching him naked, etc. I am no daniel radcliffe pro, but the "Early life" section doesn't sound much like encyclopedic information.

replies: text: It isn't like that now, it must have been vandalism - it is extremely typical of the things that vandals put onto this article. Sorry you had to read it when it was in that state. Lradrama 19:48, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

message: What did Daniel Radcliffe study for his G.C.S.E's and what subjects did he do for his A-levels??
:I know for his A-Levels, he studied English and RE and one other, but I can't remember! He didn't study drama as many people think though! (That would have have been too much of a commitment to fit in with his filming schedule!) Lradrama 15:22, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The Hindu Times is quoted as saying DR queued up for Tendulkar's and Strauss's autographs at the end of the Lord's test match. The BBC radio's Test Match Special interviewed DR before the end when he had already got Strauss's autograph. And they reported DR left before the end - so perhaps the Hindu Times isn't right. (Strauss wanted DR to sign the new HP book for his daughter (or someone) and asked the BBC to help him get it. He didn't realise that he had in fact given his autograph to DR himself! Amazing stuff.) 88888
:It is amazing stuff yes, unless it's not just another publicity stunt again :-(. Not one for going in that article though. Lradrama 15:28, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Lead does not follow WP guideline: see Lead. 
The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, establishing context, summarizing the most important points, explaining why the subject is interesting or notable, and briefly describing its notable controversies, if there are any. The emphasis given to material in the lead should roughly reflect its importance to the topic according to reliable, published sources. The lead should not "tease" the reader by hinting at but not explaining important facts that will appear later in the article. It should contain up to four paragraphs, should be carefully sourced as appropriate, and should be written in a clear, accessible style so as to invite a reading of the full article.
