Talk:Micky Dolenz

message: I think Micky would be perfect to play Uncle Dudley in New Line Cinema's upcoming SHAZAM movie. I think he needs to get his agents & managers on it to get him the role.
: I'm no expert, but it seems doubtful that posting about it on his WP Talk page could've had much effect on that. (Also, no IP, no date? How do people do that?) – AndyFielding (talk) 11:15, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Micky for Dudley in SHAZAM 

message: I recall that Dolenz had an occasionally recurring bit role in Adam-12 as a local greasy-motorcycle thug called "Oiler." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.27.73.102 (talk) 08:09, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Don't forget Oiler 

message: : In 1980, Dolenz produced and directed the sitcom Metal Mickey....  Because the similarity of the character's name to his own caused confusion on set, it was at this time that Micky Dolenz officially changed his name to Michael Dolenz.
Eh?  The name "George Michael Dolenz" is mentioned in Head.  I'm guessing that this means he changed his stage name (which is registered with some union?), not his legal name.  Can this be confirmed, and concisely clarified? —Tamfang (talk) 07:52, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Wanted to be inspired? What does that mean? —Tamfang (talk) 05:01, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  From: The Monkees 

message: The Following paragraph is in "The Monkees" section:
Dolenz said in a 2009 interview that The Monkees was this show that wanted to be inspired by a famed rock group, The Beatles. Like his co-star Davy Jones, Dolenz was a huge Beatle fan. When he was 22, he got to meet everybody in the band, and became good friends with George Harrison. Once when not touring, he smoked pot with Paul McCartney. In 1995 Dolenz did a Pizza Hut commercial with ex-Beatle Ringo Starr and Dolenz's own bandmates.
First sentence doesn't make sense and isn't referenced as to the interview.  I'd edit it to read correctly, but am unsure of the overall point.  Rest of the section needs references to the validity of the occurences - especially the "pot with Paul" part as this sounds like rumor or urban legend unless properly cited.

thread_title:  Clean up and References needed 

message: Missing Link band member Dennis Raffelock stated that Dolenz was not a member of the Missing Links, despite three books saying that Dolenz was a member of the Missing Links. The Monkees did produce the series Missing Links (album) and there is a Monkees tribute band called the Missing Links in which Dolenz has been present when they played. -- Jreferee (talk) 15:10, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Malpractice 

message: The two accounts that initially advocated for the change in photo are, I believe, operated by the same person. See this report that I just filed for details. Wes sideman (talk) 11:56, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: As I wrote in response to your report @Wes sideman "Excuse me. RegionalGirl137 are not the same person. I never pretended not to know RegionalGirl137. I made a generalization by referring to RegionalGirl137, a user/person I know in real life, with two other users on Wikipedia who I do not know, Jayron32 and a user with the IP 173.9.188.89 (I do not see a username), as one group of people, three users total, when I said "A lot" of people. I have since apologized for this faux pas. I realize "three people" does not constitute "a lot". I was feeling emotional, and I do not normally even react like that, but that was after much correspondence back and forth with @Wes sideman, and becoming exhausted by it. @Jayron32 had said "If I'm going to weigh in, I think the 2008 image does a better enough job than the 2022 image does of showing his likeness. The OP is correct in my opinion that the sunglasses obscure his features enough to make it more difficult to visually identify him as Mickey Dolenz, whereas the older 2008 image is better in that regard. While it is true that all other things being equal we should use a more recent image, I think in this case that all other things are not equal, and that other confounding factors make an older image better than the more recent one." The user IP 173.9.188.89 made a comment supporting my changing the photo, which has since been removed. And the user RegionalGirl137, who is a person I know in real life, had told me months ago she did not like the photo of Micky in the sunglasses and told me she also intended to try to change it. When corresponding with @Wes sideman, I *openly* said I knew user RegionalGirl137. I have never pretended not to know her. Nor did I ask her to change the photo for me. Wouldn't I ask her to change the photo to be *a photo I took myself*, if I was going to ask her to change the photo for me? No, she changed it to a photo she took *herself*. She simply also wanted to change the photo very much, and I had told her that the photo I submitted was rejected as a choice. I have been transparent with all of my actions every step of the way. I have simply said she is another person who had told me she also did not like this photo of Micky in the sunglasses, which she told me months ago. I openly explained I knew her in real life. I did not know I was not allowed to know or talk to another Wikipedia user in real life. First of all, I do not care about what photo is in Micky's infobox any longer, this is no longer important to me. Second of all, any look into RegionalGirl137 and myself you will see we are two different people. We are from different parts of America, which our IP addresses will show. Look at our IP addresses. We don't even write/talk the same way. Please, others, weigh in." HomecomingQueenEmily (talk) 15:02, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  After reviewing the whole thing, I admit I was wrong about the two accounts being the same person, but they were definitely working in concert with each other. Close enough. Wes sideman (talk) 14:51, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
