Talk:Richard Carlson (actor)

Fair use rationale for Image:ILedThreeLives.jpg
Image:ILedThreeLives.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 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.

– The actor is not more popular or significant than the author/psychotherapist. Looking at credentials, the actor didn't star in a leading television role. Rather he made significant guest television appearances and B-movie appearances. The author/psychotherapist wrote so many self-help books that have been bestsellers. Probably the author is more popular than the actor; the stats of the actor are not accurate. George Ho (talk) 02:45, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Obviously there are no "edits" allowed on the discussion above, but I assume commenting is still okay. The idea that an obscure author of books no one I know (including me) ever heard of is somehow "more popular" than an actor who starred in two television series seen and remembered by millions and which played in syndication for two decades in every broadcast market in the word -- ridiculous. And dismissing his work in features as "B-movie appearances" is like dismissing the other guy's work as "several phony baloney New Age pamphlets."Ted Newsom (talk) 18:58, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

I discovered a short travel film directed and starring Richard Carlson and his actual wife Mona on Youtube. Not sure where to put it or link it. I will leave it here for an experienced editor to add to his bio. He directed it for an airline in order to attract travelers to Los Angeles. In it, he gives a tour to a young married couple on their honeymoon that he met on a flight. They meet his real wife Mona and they take them to their home (I am pretty sure it's his real home) and then on a tour of LA. It's pretty interesting and I believe fairly historic.
