Richard Cromwell (actor)

Saw your revision to Richard Cromwell (actor), thanks for your contributions, and thanks for using the edit summary box. I saw the source material cited in the edit box.

Whenever you have a source for your material (which should be as frequently as possible) please add a reference to the bottom of the article page. Even if you don't know the proper style for citing your sources, please add them to the main article anyway, and err on the side of providing too much information. Others can help reformat them to proper style. --Un focused 16:16, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I came across a page in the Filmbug forum [1] in which someone posting as Joan Radabaugh, and claiming to be Richard Cromwell's niece, says that his father's name was actually Ralph R. Radabaugh, not Hobart Radabaugh. She was responding to this article there, which I'd guess was either written by you or was copied and pasted from the article here at Wikipedia. I'm curious. Is this Joan Radabaugh who she claims to be? I was about to edit the WP article to change Hobart to Ralph R. when I checked the talk page and found that the article had been written largely by another person claiming to be a relative. I guess I'll leave it to you two to sort it all out, though. Whyaduck 13:09, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Whyaduck. Thanks for letting me know about the Filmbug discussion. Yes, Joan Radabaugh is in fact whom she claims to be, though I have never met her within the family: my 2nd cousin Dan Putnam (Cromwell's nephew) has mentioned her over the years. I will attempt to get in touch with her. In fact, I just posted this blurb on Filmbug, so stay tuned . . . (Thanks again, Bill Keane). <<<On January 10th, 2007 Bill Keane wrote on the Filmbug forum regarding Richard Cromwell >>> Hi Joan Radabaugh--My name is Bill Keane and I hope this message reaches you as we are 2nd or 3rd cousins, once or twice removed. I'm the guy that wrote most of that Wikipedia article which appears reprinted in Filmbug. I know our mutual cousin Dan Putnam, and met Opal Radabaugh Putnam (your aunt?) many times over the years. I will reference the changes you mentioned, though Dan never said anything and I've sent him copies of the article many times. I, like Dan, and probably like you, have a treasure trove of "Cousin Roy"/Richard Cromwell memorabilia gathered from my Stocking relatives on my mom, Sally's side. (Sally met Roy on several occasions when she was growing up and my late, great-aunt Marguerite Stocking Buttrey was a very close friend of his). In fact, I've even corresponded with Angela Lansbury over the years about Cromwell. Please e-mail me at: keane4@mindspring.com. Thanks regards, Bill K. Keane4 10:28 a.m (P.S.T), 10 January 2007

Interested in an L.A.-area Wiki meetup?

It appears as though L.A. has never had a Wiki meetup. Would you be interested in attending such an event? If so, checkout User:Eric Shalov/Wikimeetup.

Tyrone Power

Hi you really need to be able to cite a reputable written source for the bi category on Tyrone Thanks Arnie587 14:38, 6 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi you can find a bit via google on this link [2] various claims are made about relationships with Howard Hughes, Errol Flynn, Cary Grant etc. a lot of it seems to come from a book by Hector Arce "The secret life of Tyrone Power" which is slated on Amazon.com for lack of identified sources. I just wonder whether people may have said things against him because they had a grudge or were jealous... Cheers Arniep 00:30, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Deborah Kerr

Hello, has the Michael Russnow interview with Deborah Kerr that you refer to in your updates to her page been published anywhere? SteveCrook 03:12, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What's My Line List

I really don't think the list belongs in the article. The list is a) incomplete b) long and intrusive in the article and c) belongs in its own article (like the list of mystery guests article)

You're absolutely right. The list and the show was like a who's who of the 50s and 60s. But it's an article on What's My Line. Not 60's celebrities. Unless there's some reason I'm overlooking, I think it should be reverted until someone can make a complete list (or even an incomplete list to build on) in a seperate article TheHYPO 01:15, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Arthur Hill Gilbert, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

A tag has been placed on Arthur Hill Gilbert, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you feel that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Bill Keane responds: Yes, I'm a little rusty, but am working on this article. Stay tuned. (and I welcome your feedback here, etc.) Thanks, --keane4 22:19, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there; did you intend to write more in this article? I ask because it has so far attracted two {{speedy}} deletion tags, and will surely go unless it has some work done quickly. If you want to create a page but do not have time to finish it, may I suggest that you create it either in your sandbox or in a sub-page (WP:SUBPAGE), and move it into the article-space when it's done?--Anthony.bradbury 22:15, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good article now; well done. I'm glad I didn't delete it!--Anthony.bradbury 09:54, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Richardcromwell.DVDcover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Richardcromwell.DVDcover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:44, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Richard Cromwell, circa '33 (from Bill Keane collection).jpg

Bill Keane responds:

To whom it may concern, please note... Regarding Image: "Richard_Cromwell,_circa_'33_(from_Bill_Keane_collection).jpg" This is an 8x10 glossy personally given by Richard Cromwell (actor), aka Roy Radebaugh, to his cousins and my late grandparents: Lowell ("Socks") & Ethel Stocking of Santa Monica, CA, circa 1933. I have owned this photo for 15 years upon inheritance from my late grandparents. Thanks for not deleting it as there are clearly no copywrite issues as it is from my personal collection.

Please feel free to edit this page to be more in compliance with my obvious wished to have this photo, a personal possession of mine, to be perpetually included on Wikipedia, and anywhere else on the web going forward. My intent is to upload the photo to the Richard Cromwell (actor) article, and not have it unnecessarily deleted. My only request is that if the photo is used elsewhere in the future, then it be properly attributed to my personal collection. Thanks very much for your assistance in properly conveying my wishes.

Much obliged, Bill Keane,aka Keane4, Conejo Valley, CA. 08/31/08, Wikipedia article contributor since 2004/2005 keane4 (talk) 23:45, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Richard Cromwell, circa '33 (from Bill Keane collection).jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
