Talk:Jeri Ryan

message: Jeri was on Voyager for four years.  Is the Borg costume she wore on her first two episodes, really the only thing worth noting here?  And again just to be clear.  It was the Borg costume that made her light headed, not the unitard. The collar of the rubber Borg suit pressed against her carotid artery, causing light headedness. They measured the collar part without her bald cap on,which required a bit more room than they had previously allowed for.AlistairMcMillan 15:55, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Shapely" Seven of Nine 

message: "However, her appearance also coincided with higher ratings and more positive critical reviews of Voyager, which were partly attributed to better screenwriting and partly due to her character being both intrinsically interesting and well-acted."
I don't really dispute the higher ratings and better reviews, but where can I verify that this was partly due to Seven of Nine being "intrinsically interesting and well-acted"? mjb 03:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

message: There is an image of Jeri Ryan on the Seven of Nine page, could it also be used here?Mecil 21:39, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No.  See WP:FU.  --Yamla 22:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Are there any circumstances under which any non-free image can be used in a WP:BIO? From what I'm reading, I'm beginning to suspect the answer is no - A little too conservative for my taste, but please let us know if there's a way around it. In this case, there really don't seem to be any free images anywhere to be found, and I've spent a considerable amount of time looking. MrZaiustalk 01:03, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not for the infobox, no.  However, if the inclusion of the image is to provide critical commentary on the image itself, it can be allowed.  We are looking for an image to depict Jeri Ryan, though, and no fair-use image can be allowed for that.  Wikipedia's policy is certainly much stricter than U.S. fair-use doctrine allows for but the reason for this is that we are trying to build a free encyclopedia; copyright restrictions are "unfree".  --Yamla 01:43, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes.  You can use an image of her as Seven of Nine in the infobox.  Problem is, she has to die first.  It's at that point that no free image could conceivably be produced.  As long as she's alive, there's a chance that a free image can be produced.  See, for instance, Judy Holliday and Rita Hayworth.  Dismas|(talk) 04:57, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

text: What about this image of her from Memory Alpha? Seeing as how it's basically the Wikipedia of Star Trek, if they can use it, can't we as well? --Antodav2007 (talk) 16:54, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, MA is the Wikipedia of the Star Trek world but their policies are not the same as ours.  That image is copyrighted by Paramount and is used under a claim of fair use.  As has been already said, fair use images are not allowed in infoboxes for bio articles.  Dismas|(talk) 18:52, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Really—in all this time, no one's managed to find a better photo of this beautiful woman than this one, where she's been caught looking rather like a cartoon horse? (Believe me, I'm sympathetic, knowing how hard tabloid photogs work to get the goofiest shots possible.) Has anyone tried contacting her agency? Surely they'd like her to be portrayed better on a high-profile site like WP. – AndyFielding (talk) 10:58, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

message: Isn't this a subjective word and not encyclopedic? Yeah, it's a term used to describe a subculture, but it might be more appropriate to lead into the term, like "a subculture commonly referred to as a military brat".NG Dissonance (talk) 07:25, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see where it's subjective.  Granted, the article for military brat includes the word "subculture" but the first sentences of the article state that it is simply a term for a child who grows up in a military family.  Dismas|(talk) 00:25, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

message: On August 18, 2009, I updated the article to accurately credit Jeri Ryan's voiceover for the game Elite Force.  Her Seven Of Nine voiceover performance did not occur in a retail version until the Expansion Pack. The voiceover for the initial game release is credited to Joan Buddenhagen. Xin Jing (talk) 15:08, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: On January 29, 2010, I attached Ryan's voiceover credit specifically to the official game patch (version 1.2).  The original retail game was never re-released to include her voiceover work for Seven Of Nine by default, so as it stands the voiceover credit for Seven Of Nine in Star Trek: Elite Force still belongs to Joan Buddenhagen.  Ryan's voiceover credit doesn't take effect until the optional official Raven code is applied through an optional official patch.  I have included the citation from IMDB indicating that Joan Buddenhagen is credited for Seven Of Nine "pre-patch"; official Raven or Activision references are non-existant.

message: I wanted to know if having a table for Ms. Ryan's filmography would be useful?  Some Wikipedia actors have it for their entry.  See Jennifer Aniston's entry for one example. It displays the information very attractively.  You can make the case that the current code is easier for everyone to work with.  However, once the table is put into place it is mostly just a matter of replication as following items are added.  Take a look and see what you think.Catcher09 (talk) 04:08, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
