Twilight edit

HONESTLY I swear I saw a photo of him for a character that will be in the Twilight series. IF thats true that is a heck of a comeback. Id love more info on that! Ill come back with more info if I can find it. 67.40.92.229 (talk) 09:29, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

YEP... he is playing "ALEC VOLTURI" in the Twilight series. Im not sure where his character is in the upcoming movie "Breaking Dawn", but this series comes from the books and I havent seen anything become this HUGE in a long long time! These books are disappearing on the shelves and the movie is HUGE. Now they are making a Hollywood film and it looks like Jake is back.. take a look at this myspace page run by the people that run Twilight (promotional page)... and you'll see what Im saying here. If anyone knows more let us all know! http://www.myspace.com/alecvolturi 67.40.92.229 (talk) 09:37, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
No, I'm positive that's Cameron Bright. -Phoenixrod (talk) 16:27, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

His name... edit

It's freaking Jake Matthew Lloyd. He should be making a video on his Facebook page, answering fans questions. If he mentions his real name, will you guys FINALLY let me fix it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Horrorfinatic (talkcontribs) 02:44, 15 February 2011 (UTC) xsdddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddzdReply

Will you finally read the policies on reliable sources and verifiability? We have to go by what the sources say. -Phoenixrod (talk) 03:19, 15 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

I don't want to read all that! Would that not be a reliable source though? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Horrorfinatic (talkcontribs) 03:40, 15 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Okay, here's the relevant bit from the verifiability policy: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth; that is, whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true." So on Wikipedia, we can only say his middle name is Matthew if it's been published somewhere. Facebook doesn't count. But it seems workable to leave out his middle name completely for now. Maybe he'll give an interview we can cite in the future to include his middle name. -Phoenixrod (talk) 04:55, 15 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Okay. Thanks Phoenixrod. I'll let them know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.253.60.5 (talk) 19:49, 15 February 2011 (UTC)Reply


Does this work: http://www.wizardworld.com/jakelloyd.html? Met him today at Toronto Comic Con and he said he told someone his real name so that I could finally get this sorted out. I'll keep looking for more.

I'm not sure if that site counts as reliable, but I'm guessing not. A real, published interview or article would help. Something more than a brief biographical blurb. -Phoenixrod (talk) 22:39, 10 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

But if you search "Jake Matthew Lloyd" on google now, tons of things come up. I'm fairly sure he said it in an interview with some guy from Teletoon@ Night, but I'm having a tough time finding it...Why can't the Wizard World one work? They're an official...published...thing and they actually just had him at one of their events. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.253.60.214 (talk) 01:05, 14 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Death edit

Is there any good source to prove that he has passed? OttselSpy25 (talk) 22:33, 14 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Looked into it, apparently from fake news website msmbc, infamous for the Willie Nelson death hoax earlier. Removing from article. OttselSpy25 (talk) 22:35, 14 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Jake Lloyd moved to a psychiatric facility? edit

According to this source: http://entertainment.inquirer.net/193392/young-anakin-skywalker-jake-lloyd-moved-from-prison-to-psychiatric-facility Reliable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dapperedavid (talkcontribs) 17:42, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Seen it elsewhere as well, and Enquirer is probably fairly reliable a source, so, yeah. 85.229.55.77 (talk) 14:58, 2 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
