[edit] Ed Gein?
I removed the reference to Ed Gein under the doll suit section. Making a suit out of female corpses isn't the same as making one out of an inflatable doll. Ace of Sevens 10:11, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image accompanying article not HQ sex doll
The image accompanying this article - Gum_girl.jpg - doesn't appear to be a "high quality sex doll" at all, but is actually of the pornographic model Renata Daninsky aka Peach (adult model). This can be established by visiting http://ww4.actiongirls.com/gallery8/Peaches where you'll find the same image alongside other photos of Daninsky. (Needless to say, the URL features nudity.)

- Just go ahead and remove it then. Would be nice if we could find an alternative image to use though. --GraemeL (talk) 21:32, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- I thought that seemed awfully high quality. We need to get a picture of a RealDoll without copyright issues, though I suppose it would probably be fair use anyway. Ace of Sevens 01:03, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RealDoll pic
I've added a pic of a RealDoll - no copyright strings attached as this is a photo taken specifically for this wikipedia article and released under the GNU license as per the owner. I can also get a closeup shot of the genital area, if there is a need for such a pic. Robotman1974 04:05, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] External links
In response to Luftballoons's comment on my talk page here, I removed the link that was added because to me it looked like a collection of commercial product plugs configured to look like a 'consumer' article on sex toys. Also, judging from a look at Luftballoons's contributions, it appears to me as if this user is only interested in adding similar links to articles on adult entertainment subjects. I could be wrong of course, so I suggest that before the link is added again, a request for comment is made. This can be done here. Also, it is important to keep in mind that Wikipedia is not a repository for links. See also Wikipedia:External links. Robotman1974 22:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] blowmeupsexdolls.com
I removed this link from the article because to me it appears to be an advertisement. Promotional or commercial material doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Robotman1974 01:29, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] blowmeupsexdolls.com reply from Darwin
Dr. Darwinc 23:05, 1 November 2006 (UTC) Thank you for your reply. I didn't know at first that I was spamming by adding my link repeatedly whenever it was removed. I apologize for that.
I ask for someone to review this site more thoroughly and consider its valuable contents. It has through descriptions and images of blown up sex dolls. You will be able to see at least more that 5 angle views of each doll that are blown up.
To date we have spent over $15,000.00 to construct this site- have the dolls inflated and professionally photographed for everyone's use. My site is not a place to purchase these dolls but we do accept affiliates and that is how we get revenue.
Just for you to know I have posted my question on the general forum (here at Wikipedia) and the replies were great, there was link exchange because they thought that the website offers in depth descriptions and detailed images to someone who wants to know more about a sex doll. I have received a lot of compliments and praises too.
I do think that my site has a niche that Wikipedia can be proud of. Wikipedia would be losing out on this if you guys decide otherwise.
I can provide Wikipedia with a doll's image if you allow me too.
Please let me know your decison on this one so I can stop bugging you. I will wait for your reply in this matter. Thank you for your attention and time.Dr. Darwinc 23:05, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Dr. Darwinc. My opinion hasn't changed, but if a consensus among Wikipedia editors is reached I'll abide by that decision. Can you please post a link on this page to the discussion on the general forum you mentioned? Robotman1974 23:14, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] blowmeupsexdolls.com inquiry Dr. Darwinc 23:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Hello Sir:
I browsed the wiki page below and it has a link that sells vibrators... I have enclosed the links for your review.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibrator_%28sensual%29
http://www.howtousevibrators.com/
http://www.pleasuremenow.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=780
Why were these allowed to stay on a wiki page when it appears to be an advertising page?
Seeing this wiki page is unfair. My doll site should be included because as I have mentioned before it is not an ad but an educational website. Please reply to my email. Thank you for your time.
- Hi again. For starters, what appears on or what is considered appropriate for other Wikipedia articles is irrelevant to Wikipedia policy. Sorry to be so blunt. If those links you mentioned are indeed violations of Wikipedia policy, then you should mention them at Talk:Vibrator (sensual). Considering the link I removed from Sex doll, my opinion has not changed. Please see Wikipedia:External links. Robotman1974 00:03, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Question? From Darwin Dr. Darwinc
Hello Sir:
No problem , no offense taken.
Is there a higher officer that I can speak to regarding my sex doll pagelink? Can you tell me how I can contact him? I can at least show them the similarity of my situation to that of the vibrator contributor.
I do apologize if I am being pushy but I think that my site should be included in Wikipdia. There is no other site like it.
I will wait for your reply.
