message: The article says "Although he had a mediocre singing voice" which doesn't sound NPOV to me. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.212.45.32 (talk • contribs) .
*Tab Hunter apparently believed that he could not sing very well, and was quite open about it at the time, and in his recent autobiography.  I will revise the sentence accordingly.  --Skeezix1000 11:22, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Neutral point of view

message: I have deleted the statement, "according to E! TV documentary, going on the sham dates with young actresses made him extremely uncomfortable". In his autobiography, Hunter copiously recalls these women and the pressures on him to pretend to be romancing them. He makes clear that this he did not feel put out by the aspect of the phony-image-making required of him, and several of these actors were his close friends, especially those who also recognized the sham for what it was. Natalie Wood especially was a cherished friend. 
Of course, one needs to be aware that a person's autobiographical recollections could be slanted. But one needs to be equally aware that any reportage is highly error prone and celebrity reportage doubly so, so E! TV is not especially credible (nor especially noncredible). Scrutiny of Hunter's autobiography doesn't support discounting his recollections on this score to a significant extent. 
I don't like saying that small children "took" a surname. Tab Hunter's mother was the one who decided this. Hurmata 03:36, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: His spectacle dates, etc.

message: Whoever added that Hunter had sexual replationships with Ethika Choureau and Joan Cohn was misinformed. I just finished reading his autobiography, and while he states he believed he loved both women enough to consider marrying them, he also is clear that their relationships never were consumated. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 22:13, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed categories that described Hunter as Jewish since he was baptized and raised Catholic. There isn't anything in his autobiography that suggests he ever has considered himself Jewish. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 23:23, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Edits to Personal Life section

message: I just went through the filmography and added links to all of the films which already have pages.
I also added links to those pages where there is already a disambiguation link, but no page.
That way, when someone adds the page it should (hopefully) already be linked in with the other open links, as well.

thread_title:  Filmography - Missing Links 

message: the second film on the list, Island of Desire (1952) is also known as Saturday Island, and figures in Wikipedia under that name. Full details are to be found on IMDb, as it is also the name of the original story, I suggest the entry be renamed
