Fair use rationale for Image:Desmondlost.PNG[edit]

Image:Desmondlost.PNG 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 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 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.

Lawsuit against Henry[edit]

In early 2009, Henry Ian Cusick was named in a lawsuit by Chelsea Stone for sexual harassment. ABC and Grass Skirt Productions were also named. It was settled out of court in late 2009 with an undisclosed result. Sources:

It is my opinion that this should be included in the article. Conchaga (talk) 16:03, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted this because it is scandal, defamatory which is against Wikpedia policy. (WP:NOTSCANDAL)

Content is supposed to be neutral what is found in an Encyclopedia with all information being referenced through a reliable source. (TMZ is not a reliable source, it is even described in Wikipedia as a source of "Hollywood Gossip") It should not be defamatory or publicly disclosing private facts that reveals information that is not public concern (the settlement was made private, which means this is not public concern). Mr. Cusick was not convicted of any crime. And because the case was settled privately, there is not enough information to denote any kind of guilt which puts him unfairly in a false light. Often studios settle cases just to avoid cost or publicity. The article clearly says that the accuser settled which means they agreed to drop it. It does not say she was paid, or that she was right. She could have agreed to drop it because she changed her mind, or was found to have been lying. There is no way to know either way because the information is not available, and because of that it is damaging to a person reputation, it should not be here.

Imagine if Wikipedia were to allow this kind information on a celebrities page, then anyone would have opportunity to ruin reputations with unfounded accusations. People could make any kind of accusation, get one article written about it, agree to drop it "privately" and add it to Wikipedia. It is a very dangerous was to successfully damage a persons reputation without any factual basis.

example: Justin Bieber Baby mama drama is not in his Wikipedia page because it is a scandal. There are multiple articles written, but because there was no proof, it was dropped and he was not charged, having it in his Wikepedia page would validate it and put him in false light.

I made additions to this article that stuck but the line about harassment was added back with no explanation in talk section. I think my argument is valid for reasons given. It is not aloud on other celebrity pages under similar circumstances so that should remain consistent here. Can an editor look at this and make a decision? 66.8.182.178 (talk) 02:30, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ian Charleson Awards commendation[edit]

An editor with the same username as Cusick's best-known role (Dhume) has been repeatedly misrepresenting Cusick's commendation received at the Ian Charleson Awards. Cusick did not receive a "Special" commendation. I have the printout of the original announcement article from the Sunday Times. Please do not allow anyone to misrepresent the facts and vandalize the article further. Cusick only received a commendation, not a "Special" commendation. Thanks very much. Softlavender (talk)


The reference from the Sunday Times is incorrect. You can clearly see directly on the Ian Charleson Award website that this was a "Special" commendation. Source--Dani808 (talk) 15:21, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The website you cite is an erroneous mess of a site which has absolutely no official relationship to the Ian Charleson Awards, as the site itself clearly states. The information on that site is grossly incorrect and incomplete, and taken from extremely unreliable sources. The only official record of the Ian Charleson Awards are the yearly articles in The Sunday Times, which created, officiates, and presents the awards. Softlavender (talk) 03:41, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That is not the only source of official record. I previously provided a link to Henry Ian Cusicks website which states it is a special commendation. This is coming directly from the recipient of the award. I notice that the edits and some notes I had previously added are no longer there specifically that which credited this source. I just contacted Henry Ian Cusick's manager directly and he confirmed that it is a SPECIAL COMMENDATION and is in the process of getting a photograph of the actual award to send it to me. Is this being made into an issue because it was suspected that Mr. Cusick was behind the edits of DHUME? I just want to say that is not likely a working actor would take the name of one a character to make edits much less untrue ones. Especially someone who is very private and vocal about not liking social media. As soon as I get the information from Mr. Cusick's office I will post.--Dani808 (talk) 10:24, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Award and nomination recipients often misrepresent which award or nomination they received. This has happened as recently as this past April, when actors on Twitter claimed to have received Ian Charleson Award Special Commendations but didn't. Actors' own websites are not WP:RS because they are not independent of the subject. By the way, please indent your Talk page posts using colons to correctly nest your replies under whichever post you are replying to. Thank you.

SCOTTISH????[edit]

Given this individual was not born in Scotland, his mother is Peruvian and French, and the so-called Scottish father was Irish, he doesn't live in Scotland and rarely has (and you can bet your life he doesn't regard himself as Scottish), under what criterion would you define him as a Scottish national? There are people out there who literally are half-Scottish but because they weren't born or bred in Scotland they are not defined as such -- i.e. Kim Stuart, James Scott (actor), Maggie Smith, Jacqueline Bisset, Emma Thomson, Dirk Bogarde, David Niven, etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.104.195.178 (talk) 19:19, 31 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
