Talk:Katharine Isabelle

message: As this film was never intended for theatrical release, and was never released thus, it cannot seriously be placed in the movies category. The only sensible place to put it is in TV Movies. Granted, it has not SO FAR been shown on TV, but it will be in due course. Whereas it will never be show in a commercial theatre/cinema. You may look upon it as premature to put it in TV Movies, but it is the only sensible place to put it.81.102.115.191 (talk) 00:55, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Another Cinderella Story

message: I have just seen the minor dispute over "1st" and "lead" as to which is correct. I should like ot say that the correct term in the business is "LEAD". If one is first in the credits, you are indeed "In the lead", One gets the "Leading Role" in a film, one is never "First in the cast", one instead "Takes the lead" in a film, etc.  It's not a matter of semantics, it is simply the correct term to use.

text: I am not accusing you of anything. The first edit in this section was added by you, User:81.102.115.191. However, it included a signature, manually entered, as "User:Lost Girls Diary". On your talk page, I asked if you could explain this. You responded by deleting the section. What's the story? - Mdsummermsw (talk) 15:52, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Credits

message: A word or two on guidelines. They are, as the word implies, "guidelines", not rules set in stone. Indeed it says as much in the guideline pages.
With particular reference to the WP:MOSBIO guidelines, It says emphatically that "adherence is not required". As FCYTravis, who is an Admin here has recently seen the page as it exists now, and hasn't a problem with it, then I suggest that it is acceptable without any tampering.

message: The image in use has been there since time immemorial. Regular users of the page know this, including Bacteria, none of whom have said a word, nor have tried to remove the image before. Now a newbie - two days on Wiki and knows it all - comes along and suddenly you are all experts who want the image removed. Why?! don't give me the rules nonsense, because none of you have done anything about this before. This smacks of conspiracy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lost Girls Diary (talk • contribs) 21:08, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Image

message: As all regular users know, I started the filmography some time ago, and am considering adding both the role name and place in the final credits for each appearance. Anyone have any views on this?   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lost Girls Diary (talk • contribs) 14:55, August 27, 2007 (UTC) 
I very much appreciate your building the tables, Bacteria( I couldn't find the relative info when I started building the filmography). 
Please bear in mind that I built the filmography in the first place, from scratch! Also, please lets's not have a war over this. It is all good, useful, and correct information relative to Katie's appearances onscreen. After all I have contributed to this page, I really don't want to see it disintegrating under a plethora of dissent and misunderstanding. I hope we can all pull together, and in the same direction on this matter, and get in all the relevant information we can. Lost Girls Diary 17:18, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hey, I'm a bright shining star in the individual category. So, okay, bollocks to the example route, then. I only bring them up because they are good examples; obviously not hardcore prototype. Rules are definitely made to be broken, or at least bent, but some are in line for good cause, and I firmly believe in the one about indiscriminate information. I can only reiterate that I still find the credit placing as trivial. I don't see its point, and I honestly don't really ever give a shit about where an actor is placed in the credits. It's only of importance to me if I'm trying to fill out a movie/series guide and want to try and put credits in order. I'd do that in someplace like TVRage, but serves only a purpose of minor importance (and I hold that in high esteem only because I'm anal). The only related thing that can be informative is specifying whether she is listed as a regular guest star, a co-guest star, or special guest star. As for the episode numbers - yes, we have to assume no one is familar with the subject, but the subject is Katharine Isabelle, not the film/television she's been in. If anyone takes a lick of curiousity to what episode she's in, they can go to the series article and if there's not an internal link to an episode guide, then there's bound to be an external one. Again, our purpose in this article is get Katie's details, not make a side-by-side guide. If you want that all prettied up, I suggest you tweak the article's in question. As an aside about the image - I can understand why we don't use such images for biographical purposes. A person "in-character" is not really an accurate portrayal of the person in question. --Bacteria 10:43, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Filmography

message: The date is actually incorrect as well; it is really November 10th, and the year is 1980. The IMDB source was a fan who got totally messed up, and persisted in the fiction of 1982 - itself invented by a fan! Access Katie's brother for verification. n.b Katie has also referred to herself as being Double Scorpio in interview, (Interviewer: "You're double scorpio, what does that make you?" Katie: "Majorly fucked up!", which adds weight to her brother's statement. 
Further to this end, it is a recorded fact that Katie was 7 years old when she appeared in Cousins, which was filmed in spring 1988. Katie was also asked in interview how old she was when that movie was filmed, and she confirmed she was 7 years old. As well as this, Ben Browder of Stargate SG-1 in the commentary for the episode Katie appeared in stated her age as 25, when she was allegedly 23! Lost Girls Diary
IMDb lists her date of birth March 10, 1982 and this wikipedia article March 10, 1980. Does anyone know the correct date? Ik.pas.aan 18:56, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As we don't have a reliable source for her birthday (IMDb is user-submitted and hence not reliable at all), I've removed it. FCYTravis 21:21, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Assistants 

message: I am removing the Trivia section as this is a BLP without relocating it's one remaining statement; "She was the original choice for the role of Rogue in X-Men". I can't find a reliable source, and all others repeat the claim word for word and I think are quoting this page. The wikipedia page x-men(film) contradicts the claim saying she was "considered" for the role among a list of a dozen others but this has no citation either and again I can't find a good source. I suggest if anyone finds a source to either claim and inserts it they place it in the existing general biography section rather than recreate a trivia section.--Skirrid (talk) 21:45, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Role of Rogue and Trivia section 

message: Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but reference #3 listed as retrieved in 2007 links to a 2007 article in USA Today.  <https://usatoday30.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2007-04-26-scream-queens_N.htm#?POE>.  
1. This WP article links to "Katherine" with an E (rather than "Katharine" with an A).
2. This USA Today reference article does NOT include Ms. Isabelle (spelled in any way) as one of the past examples or 6 featured Scream Queens.  In other words, irrelevant reference for her WP article.
The problems are solved if this sentence/reference is removed. Gprobins (talk) 02:00, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
