Talk:Deanna Brooks

Benchwarmers event photo, not accurate.

Ok, I'm going to try and do what Wiki says, talk this through and assume good faith on everyone’s part. This picture is NOT Deanna Brooks. I've known of Deanna Brooks for years, I've exchanged emails with her, I'm a friend on hers on Myspace and Facebook and I can tell you with absolute certainty...the picture is NOT her. I contacted the person who posted it and told him the exact same thing I'm telling you. You can check out her official website, her Myspace page, her Facebook page, her Twitter page, her IMDB entry or just Google her. The women in this picture is very tanned, Deanna Brooks is fair skinned, always has been, the women pictured has breast implants, Deanna Brooks does not. What is the purpose of constantly adding a photo which is NOT her, why continue to make her entry so glaringly inaccurate? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.202.18.9 (talk) 21:16, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Well, whoever you are, given that photos of the same model wearing the same clothing at the same event are available on multiple websites, credited to a different photographer, all identified as Deanna Brooks, the identification given by the photographer who's supplied many images to Wikipedia without apparent controversy sure appears to be reliable. Women in her line of work refurbish themselves rather frequently. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 04:05, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but you’re wrong on this. Deanna Brooks has always prided herself on being natural. I was going to email her and bring this to her attention, but I read on her Twitter page that she was in a minor car accident recently. I don't want to burden her with this while she's dealing with that. But I will bring it to her attention in a few days and then, if she wants to, she can settle the matter once and for all. But seriously, ask yourself this, why I would be so "forceful" on this if it wasn't true? I’ve been making minor corrections to Wiki pages for years…always in good faith. I’m not trying to cause trouble or annoy anyone, but this picture is not her and it makes Wiki look ridiculous every time an incorrect picture is put back up. The women in this picture has a discernibly broader face than Deanna and you can’t change the width of your face.

I'm sorry, but I've seen so many "I know the subject" arguments in BLPs that prove to be entirely wrong that I don't see any reason to give yours credibility just on your unsigned say-so. As I said, there's a second photographer out there posting images of the same model at the same event identifying her as Deanna Brooks [1]. A photographer who's recently published other, similar-appearing pictures also identified as her [2]. Explanation? Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 14:26, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Their both wrong, that's the explanation. Seriously, will this be the first time in recorded history that incorrect information was repeated over and over again on the internet? Again, I'll email Deanna Brooks in the next couple of days and let her know what's going on, if it's important to her she will respond, if not, you're free to put this picture which is not Deanna Brooks back up for the world to see.

If she wants to take this up, she should see Wikipedia:AUTOBIO#Problems_in_an_article_about_you. Dismas|^(talk) 20:12, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
