This page needs a lot of work. The english is very poor and in many places just doesn't make sense.

[edit] Numbers

At Columbia, he was a member of the Columbia Lions football team, and played in the game that broke Columbia's notorious 42-game losing streak.

I just think that's awfully ironic, since 42 is one of The Numbers Morhange 04:56, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

It was 44 games, not 42. Jiggz84 03:40, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blue Jays fan?

He confirmed in a December 5th interview on the Canadian network Much Music that he was not even a baseball fan, let alone a Blue Jays fan. Unless he was kidding around the statement that he is a fan of the Jays should be removed from the article. --Carl Brutananadilewski 23:05, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Third child?

The article cited on his page that says he and his wife are expecting a third child is dated November 2006, so if it was true, the child would be born by now. Anyone have any more information on this?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Jacklost.PNG

Image:Jacklost.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Wind River High School

Wind River High School in Pavillion, Wyoming is not an indian school. The majority (75%) of the school is white and always has been. Most of the Native Americans go to Wyoming Indian, St.Stephens,or the charter school in Fort Washakie. I think the writer of the story might have exgaggerated this for effect. My husband and I are both Wind River graduates and found this to be quite silly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.72.69.100 (talk) 02:57, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Place of Birth

Where was Matthew Fox born? In his info box it says he was born in Exton, Pennsylvania while the first sentence of his bio states he was born in Crowheart, Wyoming. Does anyone know which one is correct? -Zomic13 (talk) 05:30, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Additionally, IMDB lists his birthplace as Abington, Pennsylvania. -Zomic13 (talk) 05:31, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] External link to ZotFish?

Hi, I was wondering if it would be appropriate for someone to add an external link to the ZotFish page for Matthew Fox?. I believe it's of genuine interest to readers, but I want to make sure I follow Wikipedia policy and not post it myself -- more info on the site can be found at Mashable.

The site violates WP:ELNO and WP:NOT#REPOSITORY, and it does not enhance the article. It should not be added. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:33, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
