Please credit sources. Removed unencyclopedic bit about "Charmed" in the Trivia section. Adding one guest TV show credit is hardly interesting trivia, Wikipedia is not IMDB.

[edit] Splinter cell

How do we KNOW that he is going to be Irving Lambert in the upcoming splinter cell movie??

[edit] Name

He is typically credited as "James Avery", so I don't really think the middle initial and "Senior" are necessary. For disambiguation purposes, I think the article should be "James Avery (actor)". What do you think? --T smitts (talk) 16:49, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

There is a disambiguation page for James Avery. It includes James L. Avery, Sr. and James Avery (sailor). I agree that the middle initial and senior are unnecessary and even burdensome to use. Perhaps someone should change the page to James Avery (actor), as is normal when there are several similar names all associated with different things.

[edit] Requested move

The result of the proposal was move. JPG-GR (talk) 20:55, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Since James L Avery Sr is typically requested as simply James Avery, I think it would be better to move this article to James Avery (actor), since his middle initial and senior really appear to be unnecessary and not-so user-friendly. Therefore I think we should move this article.--EclipseSSD (talk) 20:11, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
