Talk:Keisha Castle-Hughes

message: Keisha Castle-Hughes starred in the New Zealand TV-film Piece of My Heart (2009) - alongside Rena Owen (Once Were Warriors), Annie Whittle (World's Fastest Indian) and Emily Barclay (In My Father's Den). The film was about two heavily pregnant teenagers sent to a Magdalene-type Laundry in the 1960s. This should probably be incorporated in the article somewhere, and also into Emily Barclay's article. The role is of particular note because: Castle-Hughes herself is a teenage mother and has some interesting insights about her character's situation, and, because this type of story hasn't really been addressed by New Zealand cinema until now.

message: It says in the article that she is from Auckland,New Zealand.Then it goes on to say that she was born in Western Australia but had her citizenship revoked when she became a New Zealand citizen.Maybe we could put at the introduction that she was born in Australia but now has only New Zealand citizenship.Serenaacw 09:08, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If her father was born as an English citizen then I don't see anything unusual about calling him an English-Australian. Note we don't know where her father grew up, simply where he was born. Nil Einne 12:55, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Since we are being finicky, it should be pointed out that there is no such thing as "English" citizenship.  If Mr Castle was born in Australia he would be an Australian citizen, not a British citizen.124.197.15.138 (talk) 03:55, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Well I was just following what the previous poster said probably tired or not thinking properly at the time. More to the point, there is actually a chance the father could be a British citizen even if born in Australia depending on such things as the citizenship of his parents and how that citizenship was acquired and their marital status and of course when he was born, see for example British nationality law. The father may have also been an Australian citizen which would potentially be independent of the British citizenship. Nil Einne (talk) 21:00, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Youngest Female Academy Award Nominee? 

message: According to CNN she did not attend the Nativity premiere because she was filming at another location, NOT because of the pregnancy.  This should be corrected or a source citeded saying otherwise.
According to NY Times as well: "According to publicists working on the film, Ms. Castle-Hughes did not attend the screening because she is shooting her next movie and would not participate in the worldwide marketing campaign for “The Nativity Story.”" http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/27/movies/27cnd-vatican.html?ei=5088&en=6a64f28349a74b48&ex=1322283600&adxnnl=1&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss&adxnnlx=1164864025-XtXBYcEgW6qR4ZmH7Ifn1w 
Although the pregnancy might have made immediate filming a bit more urgent for her next movie. Erstrawb 05:25, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't really related to the article, but statutory rape is relative to the age of consent.  In Australia, the age of consent is 16.  In the United States, the age of consent is determined state-by-state, with most states having ages of consent between 16 and 18. —bbatsell ¿? 04:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

text: The age of consent isn't the only factor. There's usually a gray area that comes into play; in Tennessee, there's a 4-year gap (I believe), meaning that 16 and 19 wouldn't be illegal (whereas 16 and 21 would be). EVula // talk // ☯ // 04:49, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Colbert... 

message: It says in the main article that she lost her Australian citizenship under the now repealed section-17 of the Australian Citizenship Act. Well I followed the link to the relevant article in wikipedia and as far as I can tell that section of the act applied to adults only. So my understanding of the situation is that Keisha probably still holds Aussie citizenship. But if anyone knows better or has any different thoughts on the matter?

replies: text: Potentially she lost it under section 23 after her parents lost theirs under section 17 Nil Einne 12:48, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

text: Ernest the Sheep, I think you are quite right.  I have removed the claim she lost Aussie citizenship.  Nil Einne, you may be right too but I don't have sufficient information to be sure. Robert Brockway 02:48, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Good Article review

message: This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of  , , compares against the  six good article criteria:
:1. Well written?: 
:2. Factually accurate?: 
:3. Broad in coverage?: 
:4. Neutral point of view?: 
:5. Article stability? 
:6. Images?: 

A solid start has been made to this article, however there is a great deal to be done before it can be considered as a GA. If you take a look at the Wikipedia Emma Watson article, you can get an idea of just what can, and should, be written about a young actress.
For example:
* Far more is needed on Keisha Castle-Hughes' background, and the confusion, as detailed on this talk page, over her nationality situation should be cleared up. The lead is also far too short, and should ideally include more about her early life and career.
* More detail, and references to back up the facts, are needed about her family too, as well as clarication over her father's nationality. He is either English with Australian roots or Australian with English roots, but not "English-Australian."
* The very short section on her career simply dives into her appearance in the film Whale Rider as an 11-year-old. There is no background information on how she got the role, what filming was like, etc. This needs much more detail, and far more references.
* The same goes for the paragraph on her film projects since Whale Rider. She has made several films, yet there is hardly anything written about them.
* There are no images, and although this is not a criteria for passing GA, it would make the article look brighter.
When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated.  If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it have it reassessed.  Thank you for your work so far.</div><noinclude>
:I don't see how English-Australian is such a big problem when it's even mentioned in our English Australians article but I guess the alternative is to just remove the hypen. Of course, it does need to be supported properly by WP:RS preferably showing self identification. Nil Einne (talk) 21:04, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
