[edit] Clean

It is not true that Christiane remains clean. Actually, she never was for long periods. Please, someone with better english, correct the article.

[edit] The book v the author

It seems to me that "Christiane F.", redirected from "Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo" ought to refer to the book and/or the movie. Not that the author doesn't deserve an article, but it should be under her full name.
The article "Berlin Zoologischer Garten", for instance, says "...the book "Christiane F. - The children from Bahnhof Zoo" (Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo) by Christiane Vera Felscherinow", but both links point to the same article. That's mad! Book and author should point to different articles. Scolaire 20:50, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Discography section

I removed the discography section. I incorporated a mention of Bowie's soundtrack album into the preceding paragraph, but I don't know what to make of these:

  • Gesundheit! (12"), Posh Boy (1982)
  • Wunderbar / Health Dub (12"), Playhouse (2003)

I don't see how a 1981 movie could use music from 1982 and 2003. I don't know what is being referred to. User:Angr 19:06, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

G'day Angr. sort of understand your confusion but if you look at the Discogs link and crosscheck one of the fan site interviews, she did actually release records, namely the ones you've removed - they have nothing to do with the soundtrack to the film. Agree the soundtrack should be in the main body of the article as I'm not aware of her contributing anything to it but the other items appear to constitute a legit discography and should stay.

[edit] Where does she live?

Article has two contrary claims about her current address:

  • As of 2006, she remains clean and lives with her son in a small city in Brandenburg.

and

  • She lives today in Berlin and has a 10 year old son.

Can anyone explain that and clean this part? Regards, Piotr Mikołajski 14:21, 12 January 2007 (UTC) Brandenberg is a distinct town but it is in the general area of Berlin Plutonium27 (talk) 13:03, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


Plutonium27, that is incorrect. Brandenb_e_rg is nowhere near or in Berlin, no matter which Brandenberg you're talking about. (There are four towns with this name in other parts of Germany) Brandenb_u_rg on the other hand is a German Federal state surrounding the German Federal city state Berlin. Not one of the four Brandenberg-towns is located in Brandenburg. The German wikipedia article claims she lives in a small town in Brandenburg. I'd wager that this is correct. 91.50.205.242 (talk) 12:46, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
