Biography

For anyone familiar with Russ' work, could you please help out and enrich his bio. I see that several know some excellent trivia, but it would be great to enrich the main part of the article. Categories are need like Early Life, Career, and Personal life. See Kate Mulgrew or Helen Hunt for an idea of what we should probably be trying to include. Thanks! --Zuejay 05:57, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Expand Article

Article is merely a stub, can we try to expand the biography section to a full detailed article, more than just a mere listing of his movies? 74.204.40.46 02:01, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Another comment re improvement of article

• Can a See also section be added which lists related internal (Wikipedia) articles in alphabetical order. For instance check out the What links here page.
• Can any of the lists be converted to prose? Embedded list
• According to guidelines on WikiProject Biography things are starting out very well.
• Could the trivia section be modified to be included in any other sections which could be added to contribute to the broadness... see for example the guidelines set at Template:Biography.SriMesh | talk 03:16, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
• Who cares about him having had many dogs in life? It's a trivial factoid and not even verified. 192.206.151.130 (talk) 13:44, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
• What the hell is this obssession with the "many dogs in early life" thing? Is it some sort of monomania that that person has got? —Preceding unsigned comment added by David A McIntee (talk • contribs) 10:23, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Image request

Keep current Image:Tim Russ.JPG until another is available. The current image while technically good in my opinion is not flattering. – Conrad T. Pino 02:56, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Unreferenced tag

I removed this in the rewrite today as I couldn't see any major claims not covered by the external links provided. Feel free to highlight specific claims. 77.97.86.12 22:02, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

In response to your message, I added no information, I just reorganised what was there. I can't see anything in the article that is remotely contentious, or not verifiable in the external links. Like I said, if you want to better highlight unreferenced portions go right ahead, a blanket tag is rather unhelpful in my view. As for the bio template, I don't think it helps either if you leave the sections blank. I'm not going to make any changes to it at this time though, these are just my opinions on it.77.97.86.12 18:13, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification and apologize for any presumption. I agree in most cases the general tag is not helpful and will remove it. I fancy the material and wish to see it preserved. I was motivated by haven seen good material lost for the lack of sourcing. My presumption was a belief you'd contributed new material from new sources. I'm inclined to leave the biography structure in place to encourage contributions but I'll respect your edit if you remove them. Thank you. – Conrad T. Pino 19:51, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

High School

According to some sources, he graduated from a central New York High School - Rome Free Academy, although the two (probably non-valid) sources call it "Rome University" and "Rome Academy". Perhaps someone can turn up more information from a better source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.226.188.13 (talk) 14:38, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
