Religion? Born Jewish?
editWas she born Jewish? She married jewish producer Scott Stuber so she converted to Judaism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.150.233.228 (talk) 02:25, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
- We don't have a reliable source saying she was born Jewish. Whether or not her husband is Jewish does not indicate that she converted. - SummerPhD (talk) 03:35, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Hair colour
editHer eyebrows and lashes are rather dark, her recent photo from work on continuum shows her with natural looking brown hair. I would be very surprised if her hair had never been dyed when she worked as a model, on the contrary, her blonde hair from photos in her mid-twenties looks dyed. Claims like "never dyed [her] hair" are easily made, but often just publicity. (93.196.239.176 (talk) 20:03, 17 November 2013 (UTC))
- I agree she looks like a natural brunette. But you would need sources to change the text of the article in this regard. Debresser (talk) 23:46, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
- She is blond again in Tokarev (film). Debresser (talk) 19:36, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

Date of birth
editI don't believe any of the references offered so far meet the criteria required for WP:BLP information, at least as far as the year is concerned. The Instagram ref might be ok for the month and day. Please refer to WP:RSN and WP:RSP before suggesting references of the quality that have been repeatedly removed. --Hipal (talk) 16:39, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- Somebody recently put her DOB back. I removed it because it had rather poor sources. Rotten Tomatoes is not a journalism site and it's main business is film criticism, not actor bios. It shouldn't be used for WP:BLP especially since some of the DOBs listed are incorrect. As a matter of fact, I asked about this a few months back and pretty much all the editors that replied agreed.

- I've never heard of that movieplayer site before, but looking into it, like Rotten Tomatoes, I see it also has the incorrect DOBs for other actors. So I wouldn't be surprised if that just scrapes this sort of info from other places because that's what a lot of sites do these days and not doing any fact checking. Now the instagram source probably would have been okay to use if Nichols said her age. And there's really not much value to the article having just the month and day.
