Talk:William Campbell (actor)

message: :Image:WilliamCampbell.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:STDS9Ep219.jpg

message: Hi,
during a Star Trek Convention in Berlin, 1996, Campbell said, referring to the movie scene where he sang with Elvis Presley:
"I hated every minute of it!" (laughter in the audience)
Don't know if this is of interest, include it if you want to.

thread_title:  Scene with Elvis 

message: Plenty of statements need verification. Of his performance in Cell 2455 Death Row we are told "Campbell's surprisingly powerful performance received generally good notices from critics". "Like Dementia 13, [Blood Bath] has managed to develop a cult following despite its deficiencies." Of his appearance in the Star Trek (TOS) episode "The Squire of Gothos", we are told it is "in part a parody of Liberace, whom Campbell resembled". While this is clearly a valid observation, a recognised authority really needs to have said this for it to be included here. We are told "many Star Trek fans consider Campbell's portrayal of the Trelane character as the first introduction of the "Q culture" to the series." The problem with identifying "fans" of anything with a particular point of view is that 'proof' can only come from non-reliable sources, but there are plenty of professional writers on the ST universe, so if it is a valid point someone must have made it.

thread_title: Original research

message: According to many sources, including Varietys obituary, Campbell was 87 and born in 1923. Could someone please clarify and perhaps add information to the article?
*Get the issue, date, page number of Campbell's obit, etc. of that copy of Variety, enter it here, and I (or another editor) can change it.  I'm pretty sure that would be proof enough (somebody correct me if it is not).  Sir Rhosis (talk) 23:24, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
