Talk:Cindy Morgan

"Invasion" vs. "conflict"
Instead of reverting an IP editor a third time, I've flagged the repeated change of "conflict" to "invasion" as non-NPOV. Comments? -- Jay Maynard (talk) 17:28, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Photo "potentially libellous"?
User:Cindymorganinfo, who has obliquely stated she is Cindy Morgan, has twice removed a photo from the article. She states, "The photo I removed was taken without my permission, and I never signed a release for it's public use. My understanding is that this is potentially libellous, and that I'm protected from abuse of my image. I have much to much respect for Wikipedia to think that you'd allow somone to take advantage of a public person on one of your pages." The photo in question is File:Cindy Morgan by Gage Skidmore.jpg. I see no particular problem with using the photo in question. I am unaware of any legal provision giving a person control of photos taken of them in a public place. Imagine newspaper and TV camera crews filming pretty much anywhere. (We are not, of course, using Morgan's image to promote a product, nor are we profiting from the use of her image.) "Libel", to my understanding, involves published statements that are both false and damaging. I see nothing false about the photo. I see nothing objectively damaging about the photo. This leaves the question of whether or not we "should" include the photo. As I see it, the only other photo in the article is the carefully posed, lit and, um, "produced" publicity photo. For comparison, I went to 1954 (Morgan's birth year) and looked for the first few actresses listed there. (My methodology is admittedly random.) I get Katey Sagal, Oprah Winfrey and Rene Russo (good company, IMO). Sagal has 2 photos. The first was clearly taken in similar circumstances as the one of Morgan. The second is from a photo op. Winfrey has several photos. Discounting the "fair use" images from various productions, the first is a spontaneous shot while she's walking somewhere. Next are: a photo op at the Kennedy Center, and Obama campaign stop and a candid shot while filming. We don't have a photo for Russo. We should. IMO, the preference seems to be for more than one photo when possible. I see nothing particularly "wrong" with either of the photos, though the promo photo seems rather, well, promotional: intended to show the subject in a favorable light, so to speak.

 * The more recent photo has been re-added via rvt to this edit. I have no strong opinion about which is preferable or specifically which belongs in the infobox. UW Dawgs (talk) 16:21, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

Birth Year Wrong?
Looks like the birth year might be off, according to the Sheriff's Office in Palm Beach, Cindy Morgan's birth date was Sept. 29, 1951.
