[edit] dob

We really need to find a date of birth for this girl, but I can't find anything online. If anyone finds one, be sure to add it right away ^_^ JayKeaton 19:14, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copying

Certain portions of this article are word-for-word copies of the IMDB trivia page [1]. I don't know who copied from who, or if the same person added to both, but it is something that should be looked into. -- 16:54, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image

Image:Dakota B. Richards.jpg is fair use and isn't tagged as such. Has no licensing information at all. Fix plz. 81.153.124.23 (talk) 22:19, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Not to mention it is an extremely unprofessional image. It seems to be a wallpaper from a fansite. WIS (talk) 04:25, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Actually, is it fair use? The box that pops up when you add the "needs photo" parameter to the WikiProject Biography template says that you can almost never claim fair use on an image that's being used "to merely show what a living person looks like". So, umm, what we need is for someone to go along to premiere or something and snap a picture of her... -- KittyRainbow (talk) 09:37, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

My point was that it's not free. 81.153.124.23 (talk) 13:22, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Anyway I tagged it for CSD based on no licensing or attribution info. 81.153.124.23 (talk) 13:27, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Just to clarify, I wasn't contesting its status as a non-free image. It's clearly a non-free image, as it contains promotional images from The Golden Compass. But the English Wikipedia allows the use of certain non-free images under "fair use" criteria... which this image does not satisfy, as it's technically possible for a WP editor to take a picture of Dakota Blue Richards and release it into the public domain. That's what I was trying to point out. Anyway, thanks for tagging the image and removing it from the article. :) -- KittyRainbow (talk) 13:57, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

No worries. You might be able to find free pictures on Flickr. As an account-less person, I can't upload images. 81.153.124.23 (talk) 15:01, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] dakota blue rrichards : on fire

          Dakota Blue Richards is likely to become a very tslented accheaved actress

[edit] Deleted content

Especially when we're dealing with underaged subjects, WP:BLP needs to be followed closely. I have removed a sentence regarding some accusation involving her and a snowman that had no sourced. Assuming it doesn't originate from a gossip rag, if there's a reputable source that can be cited, it can be put back, though to be honest it's so non-notable an incident as described I don't really see the point. 23skidoo (talk) 18:19, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Page protected

Since a number of anonymous IPs have decided to target this article for vandalism, I'm locking the article down until further notice; anon IPs and new users won't be able to edit it for awhile. There have been some good faith IP edits in recent days, too, but unfortunately others have spoiled it for them. Actually I take that back; I couldn't find any. 23skidoo (talk) 02:07, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

• It's been a couple of weeks. Should I remove the protection or should we keep it locked down? 23skidoo (talk) 23:35, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unofficial Website (http://www.dakota.skyefairy.net/)

I was looking at her info here on Wiki yesterday and wanted to remove the URL Unfortunately, my registered account doesn't have enough permissions to edit it.

The unofficial website, [2], is reported as a harmful site by Google, and I am unsure if the website itself has indeed been hacked or altered to send out malicious content. However, if the site is indeed dangerous especially to those who browse websites unprotected by antivirus and antispyware softwares, please remove this link temporarily until the website is working again.

Thank you.

• Unofficial fan sites aren't really allowed under current Wikipedia rules anyway, so it probably should have been removed anyway. We won't pass judgement as to whether it's a good faith site that got hacked or if it isn't. Either way, I've removed it. Good catch. 23skidoo (talk) 20:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
