This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Dave Schilling (December 30, 2015). "Glee actor Mark Salling's arrest has me wondering, where are the cast now?". The Guardian. Retrieved January 11, 2021. Her Wikipedia page says she participated in the Ice Bucket Challenge, which is sort of like saying you did the Macarena once at a wedding in 1993. Of course you did.

duplicitive fair-use image violation[edit]

The image which has replaced the one previously deleted is still a fair-use image used here in violation of Wikipedia:Fair use criteria #1, as well as Wikipedia:Fair_use#Counterexamples #8. I've tagged the image as {{rfu}} for this usage specifically; as the other page which uses the image as a depiction of a fictional character is fine -- providing a detailed fair-use rationale is provided. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 15:28, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Past tense?[edit]

I assume Mays is not dead and continues to pursue a career in acting, so I will be changing was to is... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.220.159.42 (talk) 06:55, 5 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Married?[edit]

Her IMDb biography shows her as having married Adam Campbell, her Epic Movie co-star, as of October 28, 2007, yet I couldn't find any verification anywhere online. Barring that, I'm hesitant to take IMDb's word for it, even though we're allowed to, because they have at times approved erroneous additions. Anyone have a published source for this?

Awful main image[edit]

The purpose of having an image in a biographical article is to provide visual identification of the subject. A shot taken from a mile away, which appears to be a screencapture (therefore violating Fair Use rules) just doesn't cut it. Surely someone has a picture of her at some event, like the premiere of Epic Movie, perhaps? 68.146.41.232 (talk) 04:53, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Glee[edit]

Why is the number of episodes she's appeared in of Glee is listed as "44"? Only 20 episodes of Glee have aired so far, and the first season is only a total of 22 episodes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.26.194.163 (talk) 19:07, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Friends with Neil Patrick Harris[edit]

Apparently no one bothered to put that Mays was friends with Neil Patrick Harris. Heck she starred in an episode of "How I met your mother". Like it is just a random coincidence that they were together again in Smurfs.

Ever played 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon? Yep it is PURE cooincidence. And if it is not, then you need a source that says there is anything more to it than that. -- The Red Pen of Doom 16:45, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Correction on yours *Coincidence*. Hardly pure. Can't say their married, hell because Harris doesn't prefer women. Exactly why he came out public about it years back. Harris was in Glee, like Mays was... guess that's coincidence too. 2 actors appearing together within 4 years. Oh please. I'd be better off going on their twitter pages and asking them directly.

If you want gossip, yes. wikipedia is for encyclopedic content. -- The Red Pen of Doom 17:20, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's why most pages don't have accurate content. ~~majinsnake~~ 6 June 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Majinsnake (talk • contribs)

Dark Matters: Twisted But True[edit]

It isn't actually Jayma in Dark Matters: Twisted But True. The woman looks a lot like her, but it isn't her. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.126.104.171 (talk) 00:24, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good, thanks. --Musdan77 (talk) 03:58, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Main image[edit]

Do you think that the main image should be changed? It's two years out of date, and isn't really that good. There are lots of recent pictures of her at different events, so perhaps one of those could be used instead? I would attempt changing it myself, but I'm not sure how to do things with images on the site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.7.52.192 (talk) 23:38, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
