Talk:Ginger Lynn

Bondage

Why is there a "see also" to Bondage? As far as I know, Lynn never appeared in any bondage films. MK2 22:50, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

This see also would now be relevant due to the Kink.com involvement if someone wants to put it back. G.E. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.30.248.68 (talk) 09:04, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Vandalism

Does anyone know why 69.235 keeps deleting the majority of this article? His only two activities seem to be deleting random sections in articles about adult film actresses and creating poorly written articles about football players. MK2 02:39, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

move

This article really should be moved to Ginger Lynn Allen. That's her name, that's what she goes by in her "mainstream" performances, and it includes the "Ginger Lynn" so there's no problem with that. Comments? --Golbez 22:50, July 30, 2005 (UTC)

Personally, I've come across both in my research, so I wouldn't have a problem with it. However, why bother to move it when Ginger Lynn Allen is already a redirect to the current article? It seems, to me at least, to be redundant and an ill-advised use of time. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. ^{Think out loud} 02:50, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Photograph

I notice that some effort appears to be being made to use recent photographs of adult film stars of the 70's through 90's, when most of them have lost some or most of their attractiveness. Contrast this to the 1968 picture of Brigette Bardot in her Wiki Article. This strikes me as a subtle but definite violation of the Wikipedia policy against expressing bias. Dick Kimball (talk) 08:42, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Sources

I'm not going to change the templates put in by User:71.244.86.178 because I don't know enough about the subject. His comments do not appear warranted though, and would be more credible if he'd register. Most of the research seems to have been done by Joe Beaudoin Jr., so perhaps he could put some of the links he found under the heading Sources, and that would clear up the question of POV. Laszlo Panaflex 00:30, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

With all due respect, whether I'm registered should have nothing to do with my comments being 'credible'. This article has excessive detail on the subject and it seems more 'PR release' than encyclopedic. Fine tuning is needed. Also, it's bias in the areas which convey thoughts and actions by people secondary to the subject, with no substantial sources mentioned.71.244.86.178 12:30, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

If you are registered, then you get a talk space in which others can address you directly rather than via random areas like this. It also signals that you are invested in the project, as opposed to someone making hit-and-run edits anonymously. I hope you do register and continue your involvement in the project, but if you are going to make unilateral decisions about what constitutes excessive or subjective detail, you would indeed be more credible being a name instead of a number. Laszlo Panaflex 18:38, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Point taken; but bear in mind that a user account does not necessarily eliminate anonymity or force accountability. There are many users with sock puppet accounts. There are also many 'single' accounts which have multiple users. An account with a talk page is often times no more forthcoming than an IP address...or credible, as you put it. 71.244.86.178 19:30, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

I'm not suggesting eliminating anonymity or forcing accountability. I'm saying it would allow us to have this conversation in a relevant place. An account with a talk page isn't necessarily more credible, but it does allow for feedback, discussion, clarification. Whatever. As for making abrupt major changes to pages you haven't worked on before, please see my comment here. Cheers, Laszlo Panaflex 19:36, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Mainly, the sources were located under the "External links" section. However, one of them that seemed to be removed was the Luke Ford bio, primarly because that page is no more. However, here's a Google cache snapshot of the page. Of course, if you feel that the content of the article is not NPOV, then by all means go about correcting it. Also, to the anonymous user who has issues with the article: Yes, I may have put much work into the article from its previous stub-status, but if you want to add meaningful content to the article, please feel free to do so. Again, as you are so keen on harping on, add sources where applicable. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. ^{Think out loud} 18:08, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

A citation is requested in the section relating to her role in the computer game Wing Commander. I attempted to insert that she played a role in the game. naming her character. however, it appears as that was removed.. I am a credible source for this remark. I still OWN the game she is listed in the credits of the game and appears in video footage in the game, along with Mark Hamil. So, why does it still say citation needed? Who is adding that? btw and she is also listed in Wikipedia in the entry for Wing Commander. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.15.47.3 (talk) 19:32, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Reference 6, "Ralph Garman: World's Greatest Lover", is a broken link. It appears that the entire site is no more. DiamondKnight19 (talk) 01:08, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Personal Life

It seems to me that I recall her mentioning, during an interview I read years ago, having a couple of children and how important they were to her. The IMDb notes that her son Sterling was born on either March 24 or March 31, 1996. Dick Kimball (talk) 09:02, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Promotional Link

I removed the link:

   * Nicolas Barbano: Verdens 25 hotteste pornostjerner (Rosinante, Denmark 1999) ISBN 87-7357-961-0: Features a chapter on him.

since it is an obvious ad to sell the book. UltraEdit (talk) 06:45, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Porn activities

I see this blanket statement: "Part of her early popularity stems from her common performances of anal sex and double penetration. In the early-1980s adult film market, these acts were relatively rare, especially among big-name porn performers.". I do not agree with this at all. I have seen numerous Ginger Lynn movies and the number of anal sex and DP scenes is quite low.Furthermore, many performers were doing these things.I think this averment should be changed or excised as misleading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.229.217.188 (talk) 22:31, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Many of the anal sex scenes she did in her movies were cut from home video recordings to avoid legal complications. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.73.121.13 (talk) 20:14, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Article Title and need for redirect?

Given her birth name and the fact that she has predominantly used that name for mainstream credits shouldn't this article by titled Ginger Lynn Allen and have the article Ginger Lynn redirect there?

Thanks

Never mind just saw the move section.
