I'm tempted to remove some of the following sentence (the later part): "He is suing for $10 million plus punitive damages even though his perfomance was unremarkable (three other actors were nominated for Academy Awards, while Quaid was not), and despite the fact that virtually no-one in America even knew he was in the film until after they went to see it." The strength of his claim does not seem to have anything to do with the claim that his performance was "unremarkable" or that he was not used as a star attraction. Sure, ten million dollars sounds over the top, but surely it's either a fact or it isn't that the nature of the film was misrepresented to him to get him to take an exceptionally low fee. Why should we express any point of view on this or suggest that the above matters are relevant to his claims? Any responses to this?

a) "even though his perfomance was unremarkable (three other actors were nominated for Academy Awards, while Quaid was not)" - this is insufficient evidence for this claim, there is not an Academy Award that would suit Quaid's minor role and for the reasons outlined above his character is crucial to the film's plotting. b) "and despite the fact that virtually no one in America even knew he was in the film until after they went to see it." - this is empirically unverifiable without waiting outside a cinema asking everybody if they knew Quaid was in the film. provide this evidence and it can go into the article.

Recently, a series of single-purpose accounts has been adding the same largely unsourced, POV material written in a non-encyclopaedic manner. For reference, sites which mirror Wikipedia content cannot be used as a reference; hyperbole must be avoided without an explicit reference (citing a bunch of quotes is not enough), POV ramblings about why it's OK to not be a member of a union are not suitable; neither are arbitrary Shakespeare quotations.

174.116.132.81 has made several recent edits. Some of the edits caused large sections of the article to be deleted. Some of the other edits seem to have been done as a kind of joke. Regardless the edits are being done without explanation and with the apparent purpose of harming the article and I and others have undone them.
However, I am concerned that 174.116.132.81 may have legitimate concerns about the article and because of his actions his concerns are not being addressed.

174.117.82.41 made two edits to this article.
1. Change of first sentence Was:
Is:
Part of this edit seems correct. Randy Quaid's full given name is Randall Rudy Quaid and "Randy" is a nickname and a stage name I believe. As such 174.117.82.41's edit of this seems correct.
174.117.82.41 also added a comment about Quaid's personal view of the cousin Eddy role. Even if 174.117.82.41 were Randy Quaid this edit is problematic because a source was not provided and while the information is interesting it probably is of insufficient importance to justify its placement in the lede. I believe it should be removed.
2. Removal of the text which links to an image of Randy Quaid to "File:Copyright Evi Quaid.jpg" The copyright status of the image in this article has been questioned before. It is listed as in the public domain in Wikimedia, however the image was uploaded by Boston24 and the provenance and other details about the image are not provided. I think it is possible that the image is not actually in the public domain. I am going to leave 174.117.82.41's edit with regard to this in place for the time being. If 174.117.82.41 has information that the copyright to this image is held by Evi Quaid, the best place to contest the copyright status of the image is on Wikimedia. As it stands now the image is widely used because it is located in Wikimedia and contesting the copyright of the image here would only effect its use in this article. Perhaps somebody could post some guidance here on how to contest the copyright status of an image on Wikimedia. --Davefoc (talk) 21:35, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-03-24T21:35:00.000Z","author":"Davefoc","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Davefoc-2012-03-24T21:35:00.000Z-174.117.82.41's_March_24,_2012_edits","replies":[]}}-->
I was confused: 174.117.82.41 edit changed the text about Quaid's name from what I thought was correct to what I think is incorrect. So I changed the text to what it was before 174.117.82.41's edit. I looked at the Wikipedia articles of two actors that used a variation on their real names as their stage names to see how this was handled there. The Gary Cooper article lists Gary Cooper's real name followed by a phrase indicating that his stage name was Gary Cooper. The Tom Hanks article uses the same form as this article. Perhaps something like Randy Quaid (legal name: Randall Rudy Quaid) might also be acceptable. I like the idea of emphasizing the name the individual is most commonly known as by placing it first in the article, even when that name is not the legal name. But I also think consistency is a good thing and based on a limited sample the article before 174.117.82.41's edit treated Randy Quaid's name in a way consistent with other articles.--Davefoc (talk) 21:57, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-03-24T21:57:00.000Z","author":"Davefoc","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Davefoc-2012-03-24T21:57:00.000Z-174.117.82.41's_March_24,_2012_edits","replies":[]}}-->

I removed the text for the Evi Quaid copyright claim from the infobox. The tag on the image in Wikimedia requesting source information has not been responded to by the uploader of the image at this point. The infobox states that seven days after the request for source information has been posted the image can be speedily deleted. If 174.117.82.41 has information that the image copyright is actually held by Evi Quaid he might contact her for a release that would allow the image to continue to be used with authorship credited to her. If he has information that Evi Quaid does not wish to relinquish any of her rights to the image, a statement to that effect on the Wikimedia page for the image would be helpful. As it is, the source information for the image is dodgy and I suspect it will be deleted if better source information is not provided. --Davefoc (talk) 16:35, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-03-30T16:35:00.000Z","author":"Davefoc","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Davefoc-2012-03-30T16:35:00.000Z-174.117.82.41's_March_24,_2012_edits","replies":[]}}-->

I have removed two items that violate WP:BLP. The first is the reference in the lead to Quaid being retired. According to media coverage of his Canadian residency denial, he was making films as recently as 2011 and the article here contains no reference to Quaid having retired from acting. Related to this, we cannot have a notation of "final role" in a filmography as long as the subject of the list is still alive. It's like listing Terminator 3 as the final role for Arnold Schwarzenegger and listing him as retired in 2008 when, oops, he's back making movies again. If Quaid has officially announced retirement, then let's have a source and have it indicated clearly in the article. Otherwise such a statement is in violation of BLP and has to be removed. 70.72.211.35 (talk) 01:36, 28 January 2013 (UTC) Both these edits look appropriate to me.

Before anyone else posts this twitter pic it should be noted that actual "Birth Certificates" are not usually signed by the governor of the state that a person is born in (doctor and hospital information is far more the norm) and even if they were Rick Perry was not the governor of Texas in 1950.

First of all the Gazette Review citation is to an apparent clickbait/fake news site.

Bottom line here is 1) it should not be this hard, in the USA, to determine what a person's birth name actually is, regardless of how it's been modified since. If it has been legally modified, that should be easy to trace, too. 2) if his birth name is really Randy Randall Rudy Quaid, that, in and of itself is worthy of some investigation and commentary. It's too unusual to just be ignored. In other cases where people have unusual names, Wikipedia articles discuss it to the extent appropriate.Venqax (talk) 20:12, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-08-04T20:12:00.000Z","author":"Venqax","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Venqax-2020-08-04T20:12:00.000Z-Resuming_discussion","replies":[]}}-->

Hey everyone, I've noticed a lot of edits from anonymous IP editors, and the edits don't seem all that constructive. That's why I've requested protected status, which was granted by User:Widr earlier today.
Starting March 3 until today, April 21, the vast majority of edits seems to have been by anonymous editors. While there are some edits that could be perceived as constructive (including the issue of whether to talk about his role in The Last Detail), a lot of them seem like vandalism in nature, and do not go through the proper process for making these edits. Of particular concern are strange edits of syntax and grammar (removing formatting, deliberate misspelling, etc.), and the constant disruption and rewriting of the intro paragraph. Beyond that, a lot of these edits are big ones, and there is no justification for them given by the editors on the article's history, nor here on the talk page.
So, my reason for opening this up for discussion is two-fold:
1) Would someone want to go through the edits made since March 3, to account for what has been done to the article, and make sure no major changes have been made that have yet to be corrected?
and 2) do we want to make the article's semi-protected status permanent, due to the disruptive nature of these anonymous editors?Fireflyfanboy (talk) 00:12, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-04-22T00:12:00.000Z","author":"Fireflyfanboy","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Fireflyfanboy-2016-04-22T00:12:00.000Z-Recent_disruptive_edits_from_anonymous_editors,_and_semi-protected_status-_April","replies":["c-Fireflyfanboy-2016-04-22T00:14:00.000Z-Fireflyfanboy-2016-04-22T00:12:00.000Z"]}}-->
Regarding this protection request - I wonder if it's really appropriate for subjects of articles to be able to control content of their articles like that, in spite of WP:RS and WP:V. Plus, there are credibility issues given his years long criminal case.

I can't see the OTRS ticket, and I'm unclear whether the claim is that his current name is "Randy Randall Rudy Quaid", or his birth name is that. I believe the only claim is that his current name is that; as noted above sources (as well as common sense) suggest his birth name was "Randall Rudy Quaid".

I wouldn't trust Randy Quaid. He isn't exactly reliable. Unless you can find an actual, verifiable source that has his name as Randy Randall Rudy Quaid, the name should remain the article article, Randall Rudy Quaid. The only possibility is that Randy Randall Rudy Quaid is his current name that he possibly changed legally, or just likes to refer to himself as.

Details: Image A is a reliably sourced freely licensed image of Mr. Quaid from 2008 during a time period when he became notable. Wikipedia articles often use images of notable people from their most notable periods to illustrate their articles. However, there are a host of exceptions (from Eva Gabor down to the article on Dennis Quaid) that use more recent photographs of such people. Image B is a much more recent image of Mr. Quaid, and is a cropped version of a photo of him holding up his Texas birth certificate. The uploader has no history of uploading images to Commons, and is claiming "Own work" as the source— we have no reason to doubt the claim (no evidence of copyright infringement has been brought up). According to VRTS ticket # 2017062610021476 it appears that the subject himself is requesting that image B be the one used in his article. Although the ticket's language is a little irregular, we have as yet no reason to doubt is authenticity (it is possible, even likely, that the subject had the photo taken by his wife and uploaded it under a pseudonym, but I do not think this matters so long as the image has been correctly licensed by the copyright holder, whoever that is— also, the original upload contains all of the original EXIF metadata, further suggesting its authenticity).
To the extent that all of the above is true, our choices are between an image that is older but of the subject during his notable phase versus one that is newer but is preferred by the subject himself. Under that premise, I am willing to support Image B, but since there has been some difference of opinion on the matter, I am soliciting wider input via this RfC. What do others think?

Quaid has been a professional movie and tv actor for close to 40 years, during which time he made over 90 films. However, the article devotes nearly twice as much text to his legal issues than to his career section. I think the legal issues should be no more than 10-20% as large as the career section, per guidelines. Or we can increase it to maybe 30% if WP starts selling ad space. --Light show (talk) 06:50, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-07-22T06:50:00.000Z","author":"Light show","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Light_show-2017-07-22T06:50:00.000Z-Overweight_legal_sections","replies":[]}}-->

This is a very interesting RfC as it raises thought-provoking issues relating to how we interpret our rules and deal with BLP subjects. We have reasonably good sources, and one Texas data base, saying one thing, and the subject saying something else, via a UTRS ticket and his own verified Twitter feed. There's a reasonable chance that the subject added "Randy" to his birth name even though it's not true. But that's not our problem, in my view. The subject is a reliable source on his own name.

This is pretty simple in your description of Randy Quaid‘s physical views you stated that he was very outspoken and his claims about election fraud without any evidence. I’m getting so sick and tired of hearing that. Because usually when people hear that they never want to see the truth! There is all kinds of evidence of foreign interference as well as Democrat and Republican interference.But if you don’t go look for it of course you won’t find it. And you don’t have to look very hard. There is documented evidence from our military. But no problem because all this is coming out in the weeks and months to come and then what will be your excuse?
If anyone has a link to any video of any evidentiary hearing of any election fraud trial following the 2020 election, please share. Evidence is presented at an evidentiary hearing. Cases dismissed for lack of standing or other grounds without an evidentiary hearing never afforded an opportunity to present evidence. It does however provide Marxist propagandists an opportunity to manipulate the weak minded with phrases like “claims without evidence” or “unproven claims.” When you see phrases like these, you are reading propaganda. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1702:1DC1:7120:6551:DB6:BEA0:BD08 (talk) 22:21, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230826222100","author":"2600:1702:1DC1:7120:6551:DB6:BEA0:BD08","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-2600:1702:1DC1:7120:6551:DB6:BEA0:BD08-20230826222100-2020_Election_Fraud","replies":[]}}-->
Currently this page says "He was among the Trump supporters who asserted without evidence that the outcome of the 2020 United States presidential election was the result of widespread election fraud."
There's no source for that sentence. There are two sources further down that seem focused on other claims, like that Trump retweeted Quaid's Tweet.
1. What did Quaid actually say, and where is the text? 2. Is the "without evidence" claim true? It's an oddly biased thing to say about people's normal communications, since they don't usually furnish evidence for everything as though they live in a courtroom. But I'm concerned that he actually did refer to evidence, since there's no source for this claim. 3. It's remarkably biased to smuggle in the much broader claim that he was "among the Trump supporters who asserted without evidence..." That's just a swipe at unnamed Trump supporters, and an unsubstantiated claim about their claims. It's completely unnecessary and biased. Wikipedia shouldn't be a platform for political partisans to embed their ideologies and narratives.

Personally, I think this section:
"After 2016, Quaid became an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump. He was among the Trump supporters who asserted without evidence that the outcome of the 2020 United States presidential election was the result of widespread election fraud. Three weeks after the election, Trump used his Twitter account to thank Quaid for making these claims and highlighted another post by Quaid which urged fans to boycott Fox News in favor of One America News Network and Newsmax."
seems a little biased and harsh. I would change the wording to:
"After 2016, Quaid became a supporter of Donald Trump and believed the 2020 United States presidential election was the result of widespread election fraud. Three weeks after the election, Trump, on his Twitter account, thanked Quaid for agreeing with his claim and highlighted a post by him which requested fans to boycott Fox News in favor of One America News Network and Newsmax."

Hello, as you can see right above I feel as though the "Political views" subsection has some wording that can be seen as biased.
This is the subsection's text from the article: "After 2016, Quaid became an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump. He was among the Trump supporters who asserted without evidence that the outcome of the 2020 United States presidential election was the result of widespread election fraud. Three weeks after the election, Trump used his Twitter account to thank Quaid for making these claims and highlighted another post by Quaid which urged fans to boycott Fox News in favor of One America News Network and Newsmax."
How I would reword it: "After 2016, Quaid became an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump and believed the 2020 United States presidential election was the result of widespread election fraud. Three weeks after the election, Trump, on his Twitter account, thanked Quaid for agreeing with his claim and highlighted a post by him which requested fans to boycott Fox News in favor of One America News Network and Newsmax."

Please note that this edit, although under the Political Views section, has no political purpose. The original language -- "[Trump] thanked Quaid for agreeing with his false claims” -- was slightly unclear. Perhaps, not to us today who would know what the writer meant, but to someone removed from these events (either by time or distance) this might seem to say Trump was admitting his own claims are false. As a remedy (and upgrade) I replaced that statement with the actual quote. That clears up the dissonance within the statement, adds explicit information (ie. he didn't just thank, he retweeted), and hopefully would give an outsider a sense of the intensity of the rhetoric. A simpler solution to most of the above issues would be simply to use brackets: “. . . agreeing with his [false] claims”. But since the same paragraph cites both the “Attempts to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election” Wikipedia page and the “2020 United States presidential election” Wikipedia page and uses the language “disproven conspiracy theory”, adding leaving the redundant word “false” might seem like piling on, and therefore a signal of bias.

I'm surprised there is no discussion about Randy and his "starkiller" conspiracy that he was using to claim asylum in Canada. It wasn't an off thing - i have heard interviews where he has declared this a number of times. He claims this is when someone gains "too much power" that it threatens the Hollywood elite or something. I have no idea - personally think it sounds like the rants of a raving lunatic but it sort of what was I came ot the page to read abut and didn't see a single word about it. 2600:6C56:6900:9BF:5171:C422:AFE2:3A12 (talk) 04:09, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240403040900","author":"2600:6C56:6900:9BF:5171:C422:AFE2:3A12","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-2600:6C56:6900:9BF:5171:C422:AFE2:3A12-20240403040900-\"Starkillers\"_Conspiracy!","replies":[]}}-->
