I have removed most of this article, paring it down to a stub, as it has the sound of a commercial blurb, and is most probably a copyright violation. The original text of Kaitlyn Ashley, posted by the same constributor, certainly was a copyright violation.

If you are the article poster, please feel free to write something factual and original in the article.

  • Whoever posted this article,please find something worthwhile to write about. Does Wikipedia really need porn star bios?

The ultimate encyclopedia would contain the sum total knowledge of mankind. Including the bios of notable movie stars, porn or otherwise. So the answer is, respectfully, yes. --Alcalde 04:14, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Wouldn't it be great if we could peer into the past to see how folks other than the elite class lived, worked and played? The info on this site covers a lot of territory and who knows what will be of great value to folks in the future? Keep every bit of information about real people!!!! The future will thank us as we lay amouldering in the grave in a John Brownish manner. Obbop68.13.191.153 02:35, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Sorry for my bad english; I am italian. I have added a reference to Chambers' participation on "Rabid". Could someone clean up my bad form? :-) Thanks

- According to the box at the right of the entry, Marilyn has a natural bust, but the main text says she has had breast enlargements. Which is correct?

Both. She had a natural bust during most, if not all of her hardcore career, then got enlargements after. Oldcritter 06:11, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Partial Filmography

There is no need to duplicate resourcse such as the IAFD by putting dozens of films up for porn performers. I would suggest paring down to a half dozen or so notable performances. This will keep the article cleaner.Oldcritter 06:11, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Referencing the name style

Took a bit of looking but I knew I saw it somewhere. From the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies):

"After the initial mention of any name, the person may be referred to by surname only.... The use of the first name gives the impression that the writer knows the subject personally, which, even if true, is not relevant."

That's why I changed every mention of Marilyn to Chambers. Tabercil 21:32, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
