[edit] Trivia

"Stanley says as a younger child he enjoyed watching hours of endless TV cartoons" - What kid doesn't? is this really something that needs to be in the article? --cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 16:14, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Judaism

Can we find a good cite for Paul Stanley's Jewish roots?ThuranX 02:13, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I can't cite it, but hes my third cousin, we have an ALL Jewish family, No if ands or buts about it.--Coffeegirlyme (talk) 10:29, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Guitarist infobox

Added a guitarist infobox to the article. Stanley's career spans beyond the label "guitarist". In this case perhaps a musician infobox might be better suited. If there is concensus to switch then, by all means, substitute for the other. Anger22 01:26, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

• I think the guitarist infobox is fine. Other than his run of the Phantom, he hasn't really made a name for himself in any other field. --cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 13:37, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] new Paul image

Although I understand that it's better to use a free image than a Fair Use one whenever possible, this image is so horrible and so unrecognizable as Paul Stanley that it is effectively useless, and in fact, counter-productive to the quality of the article. No photo at all would be better than this one. WP:IUP states: "Images should depict their content well (the object of the image should be clear and central)". This one doesn't even come close. wikipediatrix 01:23, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Just for posterity, the image in question is...

And while it may be horrible, it is most assuredly recognizable. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 01:26, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

I dunno, he looks a lot like Weird Al Yankovic [1] to me. (Albeit a Weird Al on steroids.) wikipediatrix 01:34, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Nothing a little makeup can't fix ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 01:37, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] vandalism

it was almost completely cut off and substituted with insults and stupid blabbering. It is the first time I edit wikipedia without intent of vandalism in a long time, lol.213.140.22.68 (talk) 22:54, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
