I think a better picture should be added. She looks awful on that one

Is she really a natural blonde? You can see brown hair where her roots start.

She's dyed her hair red and brown. As of now, the sites with her vital statistics I've researched have listed her as a natural blonde. She was a blonde when I first saw her in Popular Mechanics for Kids and Are You Afraid of the Dark? if I recall correctly. --Antrophica 23:10, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

While in the process of adding a new high-res picture, I had some page layout problems with the film poster. I think the placement should be changed so maybe someone can try different combinations.

[edit] Good Article

I promoted this article's nomination (which for some reason wasn't listed here on the talk page), and I couldn't be happier to do it (Cuthbert is #2 on my personal list of most beautiful celebrities). A couple of style notes, however. The "Other roles" section should be rolled up into the later career (it doesn't warrant it's own header), and the personal life section should hopefully be expanded? Maybe she's been politically active? I know she's given at least one interview in FHM/Maxim/one of the 2895030 other men's magazines she's appeared in, certainly you can find more info for that area of the article. Staxringold 14:26, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't think she's much of a politically active person, for better or worse. I don't think I've ever even come across anything controversial from her lips. She's quite bubbly in interviews, but careful so far. --Antrophica 15:31, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
That sounds absolutely possible, I just feel like the more content outside of what's expected/assumed (film history for a film actress, eg) can make an article more interesting. If she's just bubbly without much notable private life to mention, oh well. Staxringold 15:34, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Maybe when she starts dating men worthier of note, we'll have something to write about. --Antrophica 16:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Doesn't this article need a picture of Kim Bauer? (Though not the bondage one.) —wwoods 20:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Awww, no bondage? Heh, I didn't dig around for a Kim Bauer pic because she doesn't look all that different as Kim, but I'll add the lead image from Kim Bauer to the 24 section and amend the fair use rationale (she does have longer, straighter hair with an outfit and ID badges she would never normally wear). Staxringold 20:21, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
On closer review, the sourcing on that image really stinks. Rather than risk some craziness with that image, I've uploaded a normal screenshot from Season 1 which helps out the Kim article and fits better here. Staxringold 20:23, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Love Actually

I dont think Cuthbert stars in Love Actually....this article has to be validated by some one Ref [1]

Actually, IMDB says she did. In addition, I'm not sure what your referencing, because even if Wikipedia was a WP:RS for itself, that article states she was in it as well. --Kevin Walter 01:58, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Sorry About that...as i saw the starcast of Love Actually in wikipedia ...i didnt see her name thats why but now as i hve seen the movie....she definitely is in the movie
No problem, thanks for posting on the talk page instead of just removing the info from the article. --Kevin Walter 04:05, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Citations

I just updated some of the citation links.

  • One dead link updated.
  • One link to a general fansite page, which provided none of the info it was supposed to, removed.
  • One citation (about her previous work and who she worked with) was unnecessary and therefore removed.
  • The Spiderman citation needs to be resourced. A fansite page isn't a good way to citate something, anyone can make up that stuff, it's no different to uncited material on Wikipedia. So if an interview can be found, it needs to be added ASAP. I can't find any interview or reliable source with that info, so I haven't updated the citation. I'll remove the Spiderman info within a few days if a reliable source can't be found. —B33R(talkcontribs) 22:03, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
