[edit] Pictures

I'm all for pictures, but isn't three overdoing it for such short article? Two would look better. Jihg 11:13, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)

Clive is a really handsome man. The more pictures the better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.145.215.58 (talk) 18:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't see it necessary to delete. Cburnett 18:28, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)

Deleting one. It doesn't look real and really isn't necessary. Inhighspeed seems to be uploading and adding pictures of shirtless people. While it makes perfect sense if the article is about a weight lifter or body builder, for entries about Clive Owen and say, David Arquette, it is unnecessary. --Jtalledo (talk) 17:44, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

Jtalledo seems to be all over the place these days. Seems to like deciding what is and is not necessary. As a good Wikipedian, I will assume that Jtalledo is not a stalker, but rather knows what is best for everyone. Inhighspeed congratulates Jtalledo on a lot of fine, necessary interventions.Inhighspeed 01:07, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copy Edit, please

Lookit, either I clean this up, or YOU DO (wikipedia in general). Let's see. (Oh TFA sux at the mo!) Quanda 00:54, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Privateer II?

No mention of Clive playing the lead in the groundbreaking Wing Commander Privateer II computer game? I can't say what effect it had on his career, but I do know it was the first I ever saw of him, and I still think of him as "the guy from Privateer II"

I won't add anything about it because I don't know if it's notable... is it? Seems like it was a while before he had any major roles in mainstream cinema. 64.203.42.20 07:11, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Personal Life?

I haven't really edited an article and feel intimidated to do so, and I believe this article could use mention of his two daughters. It briefly mentions his wife but I can find no where that he is a father...66.91.22.178 21:50, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:SinCityD.jpg

Image:SinCityD.jpg 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Hard-Fi hard facts

An unlinked MySpace blog as a source? Are you serious? In fact, what is something as trivial as celebrity spottings at a random concert doing in an encyclopaedia article? --24.85.232.67 (talk) 03:16, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
