Smoking[edit]

Do we have a source on Katee quitting smoking? I recall reading it somewhere, but she was smoking in the Bionic Woman pilot and that seems contradictory to that part of the article. JeffHCross 01:55, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I remember reading a while ago that she had quit because she didn't want (young?) fans copying her. She might not have been smoking real cigarettes in Bionic Woman. - BeX 11:15, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it's in her IMDB trivia. - BeX 11:16, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IIRC, IMDB is fan-submitted, much like Wikipedia is user edited. I also remember reading that she didn't want fans copying her, but given that she was doing so in Bionic Woman, I feel like a source might be helpful. JeffHCross 00:55, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Photo again[edit]

OK, a few days ago i tried to put a photo of Sackhoff, but i couldn't find the way to justify its fair use quick enough, so it's been deleted. If anyone could tell me where i can justify a rationale when uploading a photo, that would help. And is it new that the infobox actor doesn't provide a way to link to the IMDB page? Arikel (talk) 22:02, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, it is not possible to justify a fair-use image for the infobox. In particular, when it is captured from a DVD, television etc. What we need is a picture from some award event. TINY MARK 00:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I put up a picture that I took of her on June 1st, 2008 at the Wizard World convention in Philly. --Wesweaver (talk) 00:54, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's also a photo under the same name at Wikimedia Commons. Kelly ^hi! 01:15, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nip/Tuck Role[edit]

TV Guide is reporting that Katie is going to star in the next season of Nip/Tuck: Katie Sackhoff: from Starbuck to Nip/Tuck - but since this shouldn't be included in "early career" maybe we need to reorganize the career section? Maybe "Battlestar Galactica" as one section and "Other Roles"? Thoughts? Tubesurfer (talk) 13:57, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be better divided between TV, film and other (to include Halo 3), not Battlestar and "Other". Mhudson3 (talk) 15:54, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tattoo details[edit]

Are Miss Sackhoff's choice of tattoos and her reasons for them really worthy of mention in an encyclopedic article about her? Don't to come over all Brittanicist (Britannica-elitist), but c'mon folks; this is Wikipedia, not ILoveSackhoff.tk. User:Danish Ranger 14:28, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Terrible Picture[edit]

Is there some reason that the main picture is so unflattering? And from a comic convention? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.239.145.229 (talk • contribs) 13:56, 4 October 2010

Yes; the crux of this particular matter would be WP:NFCC#1. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 16:56, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to say that I find the current picture (Sackhoff at the Wizard World Convention in Philadelphia in 2008) very far from "unflattering." She looks good, happy, and is clearly recognizable. IT is better than a staged photo where the person looks awkward as they did not want to be there.

The Current Photo[edit]

Any chance of updating it? its terrible! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.225.168 (talk) 16:29, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The chance of changing it from File:Katee Sackhoff.jpg is unlikely until a similarly libre-licensed image becomes available. For what it's worth, I kinda prefer the other available image at Commons:Category:Katee Sackhoff, but it's not as clear as this one, and it's facing opposite what we like for infoboxes. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 16:56, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

clone wars[edit]

she voice the star wars: clone wars charactere Bo-Katan. anyone can add it to her filmography? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.224.19.14 (talk) 18:59, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done. GoingBatty (talk) 20:46, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
