Picture?

Is it possible to use the picture 'GwenCooper.jpg' from the Wikipedia article on Gwen for this page also?

No. We may only use freely-licensed images to depict living people, as per WP:FU. --Yamla 15:44, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

The filmography on this page contains many redundant entries (i.e., entries repeating the same television show and character with merely different years indicated). When I fixed this problem before, it was (apparently in good faith) reverted as vandalism. How should this problem of redundancy be fixed? 198.96.36.131 (talk) 07:02, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Make sure you use an edit summary. You're quite right, the filmography section is a mess. The whole third column is unnecessary. Ged UK (talk) 18:57, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

She was in Hellboy 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.108.131.197 (talk) 11:35, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, no she wasn't. Greg Salter (talk) 01:54, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Gove

I've removed an attribution to Michael Gove. Supposedly he referred to Eve Myles as "A Celtic Rossellini", which is sweet. It was in the "Awards" section, so was obviously misplaced. Please put it back somewhere else if it belongs in the article. --TS 03:30, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Partner and Daughter

I added information about Myles' partner, Bradley Freegard, and new daughter, Matilda, in a new Personal life section. I also added Brad to her infobox as a spouse. Is this correct? Should it be spouse or partner? Does anyone know when Myles' and Freegard's relationship began? Please rephrase and/or add info to her Personal life section if needed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.79.28.199 (talk) 12:56, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trainer

It says she played significant part in the TV series Trainer but she is not mentioned among the cast list on that page, Trainer is not listed in her filmography and she would have been 13 years old. TheOneOnTheLeft (talk) 07:58, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mistakes on this page

Per the author. NW (Talk) 23:46, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting...I wonder if any of the IP'S that have edited recently have been her personally? Have any of the mistakes been sorted then? --Τασουλα (Almira) (talk) 15:43, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to her interview linked above:

The story of how she broke her knuckles is still partly wrong. At about 2:35 into the Wikipedia Files video she discusses it. The wording "practised for a while although she states she gave up the sport" doesn't match her description. According to her it happened when she snuck into the gym at 11 or 12 years old and the damage was the result of a first and only swing that broke multiple bones when the bag turned out to be filled with wet sand. She says she never gave up the sport because she had never participated in it to begin with (though she is a fan).
The hours in labor has been changed from 73 hours to the 33 she said was correct. It's still footnoted with both conflicting sources though. (After Elton says 73, her WBEZ Wikipedia Files interview says 33.) Cloveapple (talk) 13:38, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Need newer picture

I think her picture should be updated to reflect the fact that she now looks fat and old. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.126.78.137 (talk) 15:48, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Consistency in titles

I'm just a bit concerned to see Myles's latest work not treated in the same way as former series she's been in. Surely Keeping Faith should be italicised, as should Un Bore Mercher, the original Welsh version. I'm guessing that whoever added these to the article may have had a reason for using inverted commas (quotation marks) so I'll await your comments here for a few days before making any changes.

Link to evemyles.net website

Unless anybody has an objection, I'm going to remove this link, as it goes to a false website that attempts to load malware onto the user's machine. roddr (talk) 12:27, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
