Revision as of 15:26, 4 March 2010

The following:

"Wiedergott attended the Bridgewater State College in Massachusetts. He played football for the BSC Bears but had to quit this career because he got injured."

...was removed by 76.80.121.216, stating: "Certain information was incorrect. I deleted it. I'm Karl's fiance." --Alan del Beccio 23:55, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

I've wrote it on this site. If he was not on the Bridgewater State College several sources in the web are wrong (IMDb, was changed in the last weeks, and wikipedia). The information about his football career was also on IMDb and was removed. – Tom 09:17, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Homepage ??

This site [1] is the site of a Karl Wiedergott, but I am not sure it is the actor. The man played football, also in germany and was born in Massachusetts, but on his site is nothing mentioned about his acting career. A second Karl Wiedergott? – Tom 09:23, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Removal of images

Karl Wiedergott has requested the deletion of the two images on this page, namely the ones of him playing Ameron and Larr. Complete deletion of the pictures is out of the question, as we still need the screenshots for the pages of those two characters, but removing the images from the Karl Wiedergott page might be an option. What do you guys think? --Jörg 08:42, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

If doing that would prevent them from coming up when his name is Googled, which seems to be his issue, I could support it for the peace of MA if it was the only option. I personally don't think he looks that bad in the makeup, so I don't understand the issue, but I'm not him.--31dot 11:33, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

Any more input on this? We've had similar, but slightly different cases before, like Todd Bryant, Marco Palmieri or Brad Phillips. --Jörg 05:41, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

On the other pages you've mentioned a piece of information was the problem (adult film career, birth year) but here it is a piece which made this article interesting for Memory Alpha, a part of Star Trek. When we remove the images from this article what will be next? To remove the images from MA? Remove the links to the character pages from MA? IMO these images should stay on this page. If the community decides that they should be removed, maybe Mr. Wiedergott can provide a headshot of himself to illustrate the article? – Tom 12:25, March 1, 2010 (UTC)
