Dyspraxia

'A mild form of the neurological disease dyspraxia'. Isn't dyspraxia a mild neurological disease anyway? 92.20.180.71 (talk) 18:45, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Daniël to play Sebastion Coe in film with workingtitle "Gold"

On November 30th 2013 it was anounced that Daniel is to play the part of british olympian Sebastian Coe in the film with working title "Gold". The film about the athlete's quest for olympic gold and rivalry with fellow athlete Steve Ovett in the 1980 Moskou games is to be recorded and released in 2014. The script is based on the novel "The perfect distance" by Pat Butcher. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hmgscheffer (talk • contribs) 20:14, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Filmography section proposal

I have a problem with the filmography section. It is labeled "Filmography", but goes on to have subsections like "Film", "Television", and "Stage", two of which are not filmography and one of which is implied by the foresection. TV credits are not part of a filmography and Stage credits are definitely not. I propose changing only the main section heading from filmography to "Credits" like in the Ian McKellen article, or something of that nature. Thoughts? Rilech (talk) 05:06, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

I am going to go ahead and change it. If you disagree, feel free to ping me. Rilech (talk) 02:21, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Minor error in text -- please fix

Hello, I don't have the ability to edit this article, so this is a request to someone with editing permissions to make a small typo correction.

In the bio, it says: "Radcliffe reprised his role for the fourth time in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), "

This should be corrected to say 'for the fifth time'. I'm pretty sure the Order of the Phoenix was the fifth movie.

Not a big deal, but why not be accurate.

Thanks much! Deborah — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.107.192.173 (talk) 19:43, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Religion

Would it not be more correct to describe Radcliffe's religion as Jewish atheism in the info-box seeing that he has described himself both as a Jew and and atheist? Tomh903 (talk) 09:27, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 18:43, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
I'll change it and if anyone has an issue they can just revert the edit. Tomh903 (talk) 20:03, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

Is "militant" atheist really something Daniel Radcliffe stands behind? It seems to defy the most central message of the Harry Potter Series, that what is most important is to not abuse ones power. Maybe "atheism that stands up for itself" would be more accurate? (Personally, I consider Scientific Pantheism to be that, but that's not something I have Daniel Radcliffe heard mentioning.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anne.denton (talk • contribs) 15:37, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

It's a statement Radcliffe made. Whether you think he's wrong or not, you can't change what he said. Please note, this page is to discuss edits to the article and is not a forum - so what change to the article are you proposing? Kirin13 (talk) 16:18, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
What I'm suggesting is that he should be given the chance to phrase his religious views explicitly for the context of an encyclopedia, rather than making the page yet another magazine-level coverage. Magazine-level coverage is not accepted by Wikipedia in any other context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.129.125.153 (talk) 20:12, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
If you're a journalist in a position to interview him & publish the interview, then go right ahead. Otherwise, I'm not sure how you plan to attain his encyclopedic religious views statement. Kirin13 (talk) 22:39, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

"Religion = None" vs. "Religion = Atheist" or "Religion = None (atheist)" in infoboxes.

Per WP:BRD and WP:TALKDONTREVERT, This comment concerns this edit and this revert.

There are many reasons for not saying "Religion = Atheist" or "Religion = None (atheist)" in Wikipedia infoboxes. They include:


It implies something that is not true

Saying "Religion = Atheist" or "Religion = None (atheist)" in Wikipedia infoboxes implies that atheism is a religion. It is like saying "Hair color = Bald", "TV Channel = Off" or "Type of shoe = Barefoot".
"Atheism is a religion like not collecting stamps is a hobby." --Penn Jillette
"Atheism is a religion like abstinence is a sex position." --Bill Maher

It is highly objectionable to many atheists.

Many atheists strongly object to calling atheism a religion,[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] and arguments such as "atheism is just another religion: it takes faith to not believe in God" are a standard argument used by religious apologists.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]

It goes against consensus

This was discussed at length at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Archive 142#Changing "Religion = none" to "Religion = Atheist" on BLP infoboxes. Opinions were mixed, but the two positions with the most support were "Religion = None" or removing the Religion entry entirely.
More recently, it was discussed at Template talk:Infobox person#Religion means what?, and again the consensus was for "Religion = None".
I have changed "Religion: Atheist" to "Religion: None:" on hundreds of Wikipedia infoboxes, and have received multiple "thank you" notifications for doing so. In only a tiny minority of the edits has anyone objected to or reverted the edit, and in every case so far the consensus after discussion was for "Religion = None". I am confident that if anyone post an WP:RFC on the subject the result will be the same.

It is unsourced

If anyone insists on keeping "Religion = Atheist" or "Religion = None (Atheist)" in any Wikipedia infobox, they must first provide a citation to a reliable source that established that the individual is [A] An atheist, and [B] considers atheism to be a religion. There is at least one page that does have such a source: Ian McKellen. Because we have a reliable source that establishes that Ian McKellen considers atheism to be a religion, his infobox correctly says "Religion: Atheist". In all other cases, the assertion that atheism is a religion is an unsourced claim.

It attempts to shoehorn too much information into a one-word infobox entry

In the article, there is room for nuance and explanation, but in the infobox, we are limited to concise summaries of non-disputed material. Terms such as "atheist", "agnostic", "humanist", "areligious", and "anti-religion" mean different things to different people, but "Religion = None" is perfectly clear to all readers, and they can and should go to the article text to find out which of the subtly different variations of not belonging to a religion applies.

It violates the principle of least astonishment.

Consider what would happen if Lady Gaga decided to list "Banana" as her birth date. We would document that fact in the main article with a citation to a reliable source (along with other sources that disagree and say she was born on March 28, 1986). We would not put "Birth date = Banana" in the infobox, because that would cause some readers to stop and say "wait...what? Banana is not a birth date...". Likewise we should not put anything in an infobox that would cause some readers to stop and say "wait...what? Atheism is not a religion..."

In many cases, it technically correct, but incomplete to the point of being misleading.

When this came up on Teller (magician), who strongly self-identifies as an atheist, nobody had the slightest problem with saying that Teller is an atheist. It was the claim that atheism is a religion that multiple editors objected to. Penn Jillette wrote "Atheism is a religion like not collecting stamps is a hobby", so we know that Penn objects to having atheism identified as a religion.
In the case of Penn, Teller and many others, they are atheists who reject all theistic religions, but they also reject all non-theistic religions, and a large number of non-religious beliefs. See List of Penn & Teller: Bullshit! episodes for an incomplete list. Atheism just skims the surface of Penn & Teller's unbelief.

"Religion = None" is the only choice that represents the data accurately and without bias. --Guy Macon (talk) 09:52, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

I don't generally support listing the religion of actors in their infoboxes, period. This one seems pretty needless. It should just be taken out. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 10:27, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
I have no objection to taking it out entirely. --Guy Macon (talk) 10:41, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
I went ahead and removed it altogether. Snuggums (talk / edits) 20:29, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

What If Role

Please please please add Daniel Radcliffe's role in the 2014 film What If in this article! He did a phenomenal job, and the accompanying discussion of feminism really catapulted him from the role of Harry Potter to a full-fledged actor in the eyes of many people (largely those who spend time on Tumblr or Buzzfeed, etc.). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.218.42.76 (talk) 17:32, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Why is there so much focus on his views on circumcision and his penis?

This is really not relevant to his life story, his fame, his career, or even things which he speaks out about. The source is a gay lifestyle magazine interview; this is not something he brings up on his own. It just seems like a peculiar fixation of the article to discuss his circumcision status. 2601:4:1003:A895:F193:89D7:40BE:F85A (talk) 07:15, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

They don't need to denounce or renounce their citizenship, but they do need to take up essentially full-time residence elsewhere. -Jason A. Quest (talk) 19:19, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
Correct. The majority of British Expatriates in the United States do not renounce their British citizenship, perhaps chiefly because - so far - they are not required to do so when becoming naturalized citizens of the USA. That applies equally to other countries where dual citizenship is not prohibited. In the case of the USA, however, persons wanting to stay for extended periods of time usually have to obtain Permanent Residency, which is not the same thing as Naturalization.162.196.161.203 (talk) 21:36, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

 Not done: Seems redundant. If we continue the sentence, it would read "...the titular protagonist Harry Potter in the Harry Potter film series..." It's clear enough to me without having to say the words "Harry Potter" twice in the same breath. ‑‑ElHef (Meep?) 14:00, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

In that case I would suggest removing the link from titular protagonist and just write "titular protagonist" because when clicking on "titular protagonist" I expect being forwarded to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_role#Title_character and not to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Potter_(character)

To make an update on the Religion section, in a recent interview he said:

“I personally am agnostic leaning toward atheism,” Radcliffe tells The Post. “I don’t expect there to be a God and an afterlife — I would be pleasantly surprised if there was.”

“There was a time when I was in my teens when I was kind of irritatingly belligerent about atheism,” says Radcliffe, 29. “And I’m just not anymore. I’ve had too many friends for whom their faith has really helped them at hard times in their life.

“I’m fully aware that religion is a huge part of a lot of people’s lives,” he says. “Everyone can believe whatever they want, as long as it’s not hurting anyone and as long as you don’t think that gives you the right to tell someone else how they can live their life.”

OK DBigXray, maybe then add at the end of the "Religion" section, to say something like:

In a 2019 interview Radcliffe described himself as now "agnostic leaning toward atheism" noting that his feelings had changed because he "had too many friends for whom their faith has really helped them at hard times in their life" and that "Everyone can believe whatever they want, as long as it’s not hurting anyone and as long as you don’t think that gives you the right to tell someone else how they can live their life."[2]

You can trim it down if I included too much. 8.37.179.254 (talk) 16:19, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Most Respected Role

While some may not be aware of this particular role, those who follow him more closely know that he does in fact play the Geico in all Geico Insurance commercials. This does happen to be his most respected role by his strongest supporters yet goes overlooked by those who do not know his career well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:C340:AC:3:912C:8738:87C8:63F0 (talk) 02:40, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

2016 Racist friends admission in Imperium Interview

Radcliffe admitted in an interview that he has racist friends. This admission attracted some critique. I've added twice and have had my additions removed. Even included a citation. This content is important and Will/Should be added as its newsworthy. The excuse that it's not notable is ridiculous. The fact that his admission is public knowledge and media knowledge is notable enough and makes it a credible addition. Hpdh4 (talk) 23:58, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

HPDEATHLYHALLOWS4, can you explain why it's important enough to belong in an encyclopedia article? I don't see its importance. Schazjmd (talk) 00:12, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

It attracted "some" critique making it newsworthy and forms part of politics. Plenty of media articles report this critique . Hpdh4 (talk) 00:31, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

Would you link to those "critiques"? Schazjmd (talk) 00:32, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
Schazjmd, their edit history shows some evidence of bias against those having criticized Rowling, and this may be an attempt at vandalism. If they don't provide sufficient sources, watch that they don't try to edit the page anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.196.124.2 (talk • contribs)
Yep, I'm watching it, thanks! Schazjmd (talk) 20:55, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
I think the IP has hit the nail on the head. The inclusion is retaliatory, added solely because Radcliffe criticised Rowling, nothing more. Unlike the topic of Rowling's anti-transgender activism, Radcliffe's description of some of his friends (not the "many friends", added by HPDH4) fails the ten-year test; it even fails the four-year test! If we were to include something on this, it would need wider coverage, and would need to be presented in context - more on Imperium, Radcliffe calling out Hollywood's racism at the time, feeling sick at having to use racial slurs in the role, etc. A bald "Radcliffe has racist friends!" is disingenuous cherrypicking. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 13:33, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
Well put, Bastun. I do appreciate HPDEATHLYHALLOWS4 finding additional sources (although they should have been brought to the discussion here as part of gaining consensus), but I don't think those sources support the incident four years ago having sufficient impact or significance to be WP:DUE. The HuffPost essay merely uses Radcliffe's quote as a launch pad to discuss the larger question of what it means to be an ally. And the GOOD article (I'm not familiar with that site) merely offers two pseudonymous tweets to support that "a lot of people found this comment upsetting." There is no evidence that there has been any continuing notice of his quote, or that it's impacted his career or reputation or personal life. Schazjmd (talk) 15:17, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

Now You See Me 2 description

There's a part of this that says "character is revealed to be" and while I know concern over spoilers is not the primary focus of this or any Wiki article, this seems like an unnecessary mention, at least in this article. Just my two cents. 2603:8001:2A00:7428:604C:AAAC:5E30:E1B2 (talk) 14:28, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

That sentence needs attention anyway as, grammatically, it's a disaster. As regards the spooler, I guess it depends on when in the narrative the reveal happens. But I agree it's probably not needed here. Martinevans123 (talk) 14:38, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

change: 

"I'm an atheist, but I'm very proud of being Jewish. It means I have a good work ethic, and you get Jewish humour and you're allowed to tell Jewish jokes. For instance: did you hear how copper wire was invented? Two Jews fighting over a penny. And so on."[1][157]

 Done, also confirmed that quote does appear in the source ([20]) as it almost seems made up. Certainly an unusual sentence; agreed that the "joke" itself is not adding anything to the article about Radcliffe and not worth including. Dylnuge (Talk • Edits) 21:27, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Age of rise to fame

I realize this is a comparatively minor point, but the article currently states he "rose to fame at age 12".

Given that he had just turned 11 when he was announced to have got the part (Aug 21 2000 per https://edition.cnn.com/2000/WORLD/europe/08/22/potter.casting/index.html) and it was a press frenzy from then on, it could be argued he rose to fame at the age of 11. In fact, he was still 11 when the film concluded principal photography, per the Philospher's Stone article.

Again, I realize this is a minor point, but i'd like to see what the consensus is as to when he "rose to fame". TBicks (talk) 22:15, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
