[edit] Blurb

I have removed most of this article, paring it down to a stub, as it has the sound of a commercial blurb, and is most probably a copyright violation. The original text of Kaitlyn Ashley, posted by the same constributor, certainly was a copyright violation.

If you are the article poster, please feel free to write something factual and original in the article.

• Whoever posted this article,please find something worthwhile to write about. Does Wikipedia really need porn star bios?

The ultimate encyclopedia would contain the sum total knowledge of mankind. Including the bios of notable movie stars, porn or otherwise. So the answer is, respectfully, yes. --Alcalde 04:14, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Wouldn't it be great if we could peer into the past to see how folks other than the elite class lived, worked and played? The info on this site covers a lot of territory and who knows what will be of great value to folks in the future? Keep every bit of information about real people!!!! The future will thank us as we lay amouldering in the grave in a John Brownish manner. Obbop68.13.191.153 02:35, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

• Sorry for my bad english; I am italian. I have added a reference to Chambers' participation on "Rabid". Could someone clean up my bad form? :-) Thanks

- According to the box at the right of the entry, Marilyn has a natural bust, but the main text says she has had breast enlargements. Which is correct?

Both. She had a natural bust during most, if not all of her hardcore career, then got enlargements after. Oldcritter 06:11, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

I'd say enhancements later as well as in high school (Staples class of 1970) she wasn't very busty and seeing her from time to time since hs, they look like they've changed and were hard looking when last saw her in a 1989 performance in New Haven.

[edit] Partial Filmography

There is no need to duplicate resourcse such as the IAFD by putting dozens of films up for porn performers. I would suggest paring down to a half dozen or so notable performances. This will keep the article cleaner.Oldcritter 06:11, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Referencing the name style

Took a bit of looking but I knew I saw it somewhere. From the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies):

"After the initial mention of any name, the person may be referred to by surname only.... The use of the first name gives the impression that the writer knows the subject personally, which, even if true, is not relevant."

That's why I changed every mention of Marilyn to Chambers. Tabercil 21:32, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Daughter

According to her IMDB bio: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001032/bio her daughter is from a later marriage to Tom Taylor. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.178.156.215 (talk) 23:40, 7 April 2007 (UTC).

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

Image:Behindgreendoor.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 02:10, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Details

Blood Group: Red - does it matter the blood group? and Natural bust: yes/no - if you don't know just delete it are they needed at all?

Blood group is considered to be a characteristic feature in Japan, a bit like the star sign in the Western world. Maikel 18:15, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

which would actually be a good reason for deletion ... Maikel 18:27, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

Noticeably longer than a stub. Close to B-Class, in fact, with more sources. --AnonEMouse ^(squeak) 06:09, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
