Talk:Skandar Keynes

message: Although I understand that there will be many fansites made dedicated to Skandar Keynes, please do not add any fansites other than the one that is already there; skandar.net. Leave this one alone.
There are 2 websites that keep being added;skandarsonofadam and skandar rox. Both hosted at freewebs. If you see them, please revert to the last version of which the only fansite there is skandar.net. 
And if you are the one who keeps adding them, please stop. And I have also noted that IP number 69.231.226.180, attempted to sabatage the link by changing the link of skandar.net. Do not do this.
The reason that skandar.net should stay, is because it is of very high quality. One fansite is enough. Do not add anymore. If you do you will be blocked.
Thankyou. --Rachel Cakes 00:24, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I have seen many people adding other websites as well, like skandarkeynesfan.  I have only seen skandar_rox put up once, and many other fansites have been trying to put up theirs as well.  How come just put up skandar.net when there is so many other fansites that are very good?

:Agreed. This seems to reek of an attempt to turn the Wikipedia article into an advertisement for skandar.net over skandarkeynesfan.com (at the very least it'll help their google ranking), just look at the consistent reverts in the edit history. No doubt, skandar.net is a good website, but I've seen nothing that would entitle it to special treatment above all others. For example, it is not the "official" Skandar Keynes website as far as I can tell.
:The suggestion from Rachel Cakes above that people will be blocked for adding links is ridiculous and IMO should be viewed as issuing unnecessary threats. As far as I am concerned, all reasonable quality fansites can be linked. --New Progressive 05:09, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: He/She is wrong as a matter of policy.  Listing multiple fanistes is to be avoided per the Manual of Style Guidline WP:EL which I quoted above.  Attempts to add several links will probably be reverted.  On the other hand, if you want to add information from a site and include a link to it as a reference that is fine, but it may still be reverted if others judge to information to be irrelevant to the purpose of the article (such as Skandar's favorite whatever).

message: As of 25 October 2006, per WP:WIAGA, this article fails for GA status. My main concern is that it is not broad enough – (criterion 3) – for a biography of living person. As the subject is an actor, the article is really lack of the subject's biography as an actor. All information - in the only - lead section are trivia, not related to the nobility of the subject. When this matter is resolved, you can renominate this article back. If you disagree with my review, then you can submit this article to WP:GA/R. Cheers. — Indon (reply) — 13:44, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

message: The part about Skandar being Pashto is irrelevant, I am removing it. إسكندر in Arabic, is transliterated in a number of ways including Iskander, Iskandar, Skandar, Skander, Eskander, Eskender, etc...the fact that he uses Skandar has nothing to do with Pashto, it's just his own personal choice of spelling.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.195.220.141 (talk) 23:47, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

message: I chopped a fair bit of ancestry since more remote ancestors such as King Edward are certainly shared with a very large percentage of modern Britons.  Also chopped Tony Benn since Tony Benn is only collaterally and remotely related to the Wedgwoods. I've dropped David Hume since he is at most a great uncle several time removed.  Also Ruth Padel who is a third cousin (which is fairly distant even given that the Wedgwood/Darwins are clannish).  There are links at the bottom of the article to the Keynes and Wedgwood/Darwin families articles for those who want to follow the intricacies.  I believe Wikipedia standards are not to give too much ancestry unless it is directly relevant to the article. --Erp (talk) 04:34, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

message: It would be great to have included information on the pronunciation of the Keynes`s name, in the article. If anybody is sure how the name is pronounced, he resp. she may just describe that, here, by exact comparisons to common English expressions. I would then turn that into a note on the pronunciation on the basis of Wikipedia:IPA for English. --Hans Dunkelberg (talk) 20:34, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

message: The article calls him Skandar Keynes (born Alexander Amin Casper Keynes). This makes it seem like he changed his birth name. Why not simply Alexander Amin Casper "Skandar" Keynes? Rovingrobert (talk) 06:14, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

message: Emir of Wikipedia added a  that looks to be unsourced, so I removed it.  Even if all the names were sourced, I'm not sure this belongs here.  Wikipedia isn't a genealogy website, and I don't really see what value this adds.  If he were a member of a royal family, maybe.  I don't think we need that much detail for an actor.  We've already got a prose section that details the most notable family members, and some of those sources don't even look like they are sourced very well.  Before we go creating a big list like this, we need better sourcing for the prose version. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:06, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It appears as if the majority of the family history is also present on the page of his father, Randal Keynes, with even worse sourcing should we remove that too? Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:58, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yeah, probably so.  I can understand how being related to Charles Darwin would excite fans of genealogy, but these kinds of charts aren't usually done in biographies outside of royalty.  I'm not really into this kind of genealogy stuff, so I could be off about this, but it looks like we've already got an article on Darwin's family line: Darwin–Wedgwood family.  In that case, we could probably just link there. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:11, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: We are all related so you also are related to Charles Darwin.  His immediate relatives and a pointer to the Darwin-Wedgwood family page should be sufficient.   At least he isn't dead; there is someone going around trying to put in where all the Darwin descendants and their spouses are buried.--Erp (talk) 14:15, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

text: When I was excited about this I went ahead and created Keynes family where the main links are shown.  Assuming things can be sourced they should be placed there or in Darwin–Wedgwood family rather than in individual people's articles.  Eluchil404 (talk) 15:29, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
