Fair use rationale for Image:WilliamCampbell.jpg[edit]

Image:WilliamCampbell.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 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 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.

Image copyright problem with Image:STDS9Ep219.jpg[edit]

The image Image:STDS9Ep219.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
  • That this article is linked to from the image description page.

This is an automated notice by FairuseBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. --00:46, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Scene with Elvis[edit]

Hi,

during a Star Trek Convention in Berlin, 1996, Campbell said, referring to the movie scene where he sang with Elvis Presley:

"I hated every minute of it!" (laughter in the audience)

Don't know if this is of interest, include it if you want to.

Well, I suspect he didn't really "sing" with Elvis, unless his voice was three octaves lower in the 1950s than it later was. This myth that he performed a duet with Elvis is the most laughable thing ever when you see the film and realize he was obviously dubbed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UaJCiTMNco 96.42.38.210 (talk) 03:40, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Original research[edit]

Plenty of statements need verification. Of his performance in Cell 2455 Death Row we are told "Campbell's surprisingly powerful performance received generally good notices from critics". "Like Dementia 13, [Blood Bath] has managed to develop a cult following despite its deficiencies." Of his appearance in the Star Trek (TOS) episode "The Squire of Gothos", we are told it is "in part a parody of Liberace, whom Campbell resembled". While this is clearly a valid observation, a recognised authority really needs to have said this for it to be included here. We are told "many Star Trek fans consider Campbell's portrayal of the Trelane character as the first introduction of the "Q culture" to the series." The problem with identifying "fans" of anything with a particular point of view is that 'proof' can only come from non-reliable sources, but there are plenty of professional writers on the ST universe, so if it is a valid point someone must have made it.

Birth Year[edit]

According to many sources, including Varietys obituary, Campbell was 87 and born in 1923. Could someone please clarify and perhaps add information to the article?

You need a subscription for Varietys obituaries, but here is Los Angeles Times obituary [1]. It states he was born in 1923 according to public records. Hope it is sufficient enough for you. Hope for a quick respone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.69.14.117 (talk) 07:20, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
