Vandalism?
editWhen I first saw this article, I was surprized to see that some random editor had placed Bernard Lee under the catagory titled "Gay Actors". As a big fan of the James Bond series and an admirer of Lee's performance as "M", I had to find out if this was true. However, during my research, I could not find any solid evidence (not even in the biography section for Lee in the Internet Movie Database) that Lee was actually a homosexual. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that the inclusion of the "Gay Actors" tag in this article was probably either the result of vandalism or malicious rumors and I felt obliged to remove this controversial tag. If anyone had any solid proof that Bernard Lee was in fact gay, please provide actual references before re-adding this catagory back into the article. Thank you! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaiser Taylor (talk • contribs) 10:10, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Actually, it was well known in the acting profession that Lee was both gay and an alcoholic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.15.57.80 (talk) 10:10, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
- Then please provide the evidence in the form of citations. In the absence of anything in the article to support him being gay, there is zero justification for having him in a gay category. "Well-known" does not amount to any form of evidence. For now at least, the category is being removed. -- JackofOz (talk) 01:01, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

- To be honest when I first clicked on this I thought this might be enough to fail the whole article, but the rest is so well done that I think it is better to explore this more. The article is very short, especially for an actor with over 100 films to his namee. Is there just not much information about him out there? I found this after quite a search, which mentions some hobbies and a daughter. Others [1] [2] [3] [4]. An interview would be awesome (one of those links suggests he did one). Mayne these can help or you can find more.
- Thanks for these - there are a very few little bits around, but not an awful lot - he was not really in the press much as he was normally not a lead actor, but a cast member. I'll do a bit more digging around on this bit too. - SchroCat (^ • @) 00:34, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

Comments
editWell done on the expansion. You deserve a lot of credit for getting as much information as you have. Unfortunately some prose issues have been introduced. They should be easily fixed though. I made some changes myself, feel free to revert any you don't agree with.[5]
- work on the West End stage in thrillers, such as Blind Man's Bluff[4] and Ten Minute Alibi, where he played in a comedic role with Arthur Askey. It is unclear which play involved Askey (both or just the Ten Minute Alibi).
- After wartime service in the army between 1940 and 1946,[6] with the Royal Sussex Regiment;[5] whilst Lee was awaiting his demob he attended golfing ladies night and met a producer, also a fellow guest, and Lee was offered a part in the play "Stage Door" This needs revising. Saying too much and too many commas to follow easily.
- He returned to the stage whilst also developing a successful film career Is this Stage Door? What time frame is this? How does it fit in with the sentences around it?
- During the 1950s he appeared in a long run on stage as Able Seaman Turner... Not sure on this. "Appeared in a long run on stage" doesn't sound right.
- gave him a cheque for $6,000 to clear his debts note saying that everyone has a spot of trouble once in a while Something went wrong here, how does note fit in.
- Three years after the fire, Lee married television director's assistant Ursula McHale[19] who was present at his death. who was present at his death would fit in better under death. It looks wrong here.
- On 16 January 1981, Lee died at the Royal Free Hospital in London after a battle with stomach cancer, just six days after his 73rd birthday, having been admitted to hospital in November 1980 I would work the admitted into hospital first then the death if possible.
- because of Lee's suffering from his condition. Would after witnessing Lee's suffereing be better?
- Lee died after filming had started on For Your Eyes Only, but before he could film his scenes as M, as he had done in the previous eleven films of the James Bond series He died on the other films too?? :) Might need rewording to make it clearer.
- Many thanks: I think I've covered all the above, but please let me know if there is anything I've missed, or if I've missed something else. Cheers - SchroCat (^ • @) 14:36, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
- During the 1950s he was in a long run on stage I still not sure about this. "He had a long run on stage"? AIRcorn (talk) 08:20, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
- Yep - you're right about that: it reads a lot more clearly now. Cheers - SchroCat (^ • @) 08:56, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
Fantastic news - thanks very much for the trouble you went to on this: it's much appreciated! Cheers - SchroCat (^ • @) 10:23, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
I don't mean to be a spoil sport but this article is severerly lacking adequate discussion of his career as an actor. It blindly ignores discussion of his theatrical career, ignores decades of his career let alone critical commentary on his acting roles aside from M.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:08, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
- Sometimes the information just isn't there. I had a look and the links above were all I could find. AIRcorn (talk) 20:25, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
Mathematical issue
editI read that Lee's career spanned 1934 to 1979, beginning on stage at the age of six. That seems to suggest he was born in 1928. Yet, I also see he was born in 1908, so he turned six in 1914, not 1934. Was "six" meant to say "twenty six"? -- ♬ Jack of Oz ♬ [your turn] 06:22, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Birth and father
editIn the GRO births index there is an entry for a John Bernard Lee, March quarter 1908, Registration district Brentford, volume 3a, page 224. This supports the statement that he was born in London rather than Cork.
In the 1911 census the entry for 67 Speldhurst Road, Acton Green, West London lists the following family:
Charles Edmund Lee 47 Theatrical Actor Armagh City Ireland Resident
Ellen Lee (married 7 years) 30 Liverpool Lancs
Edmund James Lee 5 Fulham S W
John Bernard Lee 3 Chiswick W
This appears to be the correct family: Chiswick is within the Brentford registration district. However, his father is Charles Edmund Lee (not Edmund James Lee) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.28.50.36 (talk) 02:30, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, I saw these when I re-wrote the article. Unfortunately neither of them categorically state that it is the same Bernard Lee as the article, and the reliable sources show either London or Cork, which is why we have shown both and explained why. - SchroCat (^ • @) 09:16, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
- Someone raised this at OTRS - as I had some Ancestry.co.uk credits unused - I had a look there (Note: Irish records before the split are part of the UK system). I can state that according to the UK Birth records and 1911 Census records. NB:All one can see on Ancestry.co.uk is a three month index giving a volume and page number.
- There was a John Bernard Lee born in Brentford and in the index for Jan/Mar 1908 (Vol 3a p 224) - one would need to buy the birth certificate to get more detail, and the Chiswick census is correct as above.
- There are no John Lee or John Bernard Lee born in Cork in the range 1907-1909.
- J B Lee Married "Cook or Merredew" in Hampstead, Jan/Mar 1934 (Vol 1a p 1218)
- J B Lee Married Mchale in Hampstead, Jan/Mar 1975 (Vol 12 p 1279)
- John Bernard Lee died in Camden, born 10th Jan 1908 in Jan/Mar 1981 (Vol 14 p 2155)

There is no need for a misleading and pointless box at the top of the page, and your nothing in the MOS that demands one is there.

Before reverting again, Emir of Wikipedia, and the other user who reverted, please familiarise yourselves with WP:BRD and MOS:INFOBOX and guide me to the relevant piece where it says infoboxes are required in all circumstances. Thanks. CassiantoTalk 17:56, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
An Rfc is ongoing at MOS:INFOBOX concerning mandatory infoboxes in bio articles. Suggest EoW bring his arguments there. GoodDay (talk) 18:44, 14 January 2017 (UTC) |
I'm not seeing the issue with having an infobox. There's nothing on MOS:INFOBOX stating only certain people get them. It given an encapsulation of the person in a very brief order and thus adds to the article. Is there anything you're seeing that would prohibit an infoxbox here ? KoshVorlon} 19:17, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Still nothing from Old Emir? He must've got lost at the MOS roundabout. Anyway, Kosh Vorlon, rather than a subjective view, perhaps you could now give an objective view as to why you think one is justified? CassiantoTalk 19:19, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Oppose. Infoboxes should be used only occasionally, with great care. They should not be a formulaic part of articles. Infoboxes seem to pander to the lowest concentration span. Their premise seems to be that readers can't absorb the key facts from extended text, or that they want isolated factoids hammered into a prefabricated shape. They judder against the lead as a summary of the main text, but are prone to deceive (not by purpose, but in effect). Their inclusion would be derided in any culture that wasn't saturated with 30-second television ads and news broadcasts featuring 5- to 10-second grabs from politicians, PR consultants and disaster witnesses. Infoboxes are at loggerheads with WP's goal of providing reliable, deep information about the world; they intrude between readers and their all-important engagement with the opening of the main text. Further reasons include:
- Undisciplined expansiveness: A maximum-inclusion approach to fields that leads editors to place repetitive, sometimes downright silly information in the box. (There needs to be clear, prominent advice about not using every single field in every circumstance, and rather the need to ration the information, shaping it to the context.)
- Visual degradation: The way infoboxes squash the text to the left, particularly on smaller screens, and restrict the sizing of the lead picture.
- Prefabrication: The prefabricated feel infoboxes give to articles: here's quick and dirty info if you can't be bothered to read on—the very name of the boxes says it all.
- Disconnected particles. Their domination of the very opening of an article with chopped up morsels that seem to contradict the continuous, connected form and style of the running prose. (If the justification is that adding an infobox provides both genres, the problem is this utter visual domination at the top—and see the next point.)
- Uncertain benefit for readers: The failure of anyone who promotes infoboxes to explain how they are read. (Do readers look at them first, before embarking on the lead? Does the existence of infoboxes encourage readers not to absorb the main text? Do readers hop from article to article looking only at infoboxes—an argument I've heard put for retaining blue-carpeted linking practices within infoboxes? Do readers just glance quickly at the infobox and then read the article proper—in which case, what is the relationship between the infobox and the rest, and does the former reduce the impact of the latter through pre-empting basic information that the reader will encounter in the running prose? What functionality is missing when an article does not have an infobox?)
- Better as lists: The fact that infobox information seems, in design, to be for comparison between topics. (If this is the case, the information would be far, far better in a WP List, where the form is much better suited to comparison, and the relationship between lead and table can be made to work very well indeed; see WP:Featured lists for what I mean.)
With bated breath, and with an almost unexplained quiver of excitement in my gentleman's area at the prospect of such a discussion, I now open up the floor to others. CassiantoTalk 19:27, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose - Infoboxes are best for those who've held positions or offices, which require showing dates of service. GoodDay (talk) 19:40, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support this infobox. This is an excellent and informative infobox, gives the salient information at a glance (birth/death dates, age of death, nationality, profession, role), and is very helpful to the reader. I do not think it should have been removed without discussion. Softlavender (talk) 14:31, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- That's funny, because I don't think it should've been added without discussion. Funny old world, isn't it? CassiantoTalk 20:43, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Every one of those pieces of information in the proposed infobox is covered in the first sentence of the article. As GoodDay points out infoboxes are useful where the career history of a person has been long and complicated and/or they have held multiple posts. Neither applies in this case, and therefore any utility does not make up for the disadvantages of infoboxes as pointed out by Cassianto above. Black Kite (talk) 16:24, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

- @Cassianto: Infoboxes should be used only occasionally, with great care - untrue.
- @GoodDay: Infoboxes are best for those who've held positions or offices - untrue.
- @Black Kite: useful where the career history of a person has been long and complicated and/or they have held multiple posts - untrue.
- Infoboxes are a basic convention used on all types of biographical articles on Wikipedia, not particular types of biographical articles or of a given length. Please see Media biographies on Wikipedia:Featured articles. Please provide links to validate these points, as well as any other claims you make. Otherwise, they all sound like personal opinions with no basis in Wikipedia policy. Mitchumch (talk) 21:05, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- AFAIK, infoboxes in bio articles are not mandatory. Inclusion or exclusion of infoboxes is decided by the editing community. GoodDay (talk) 21:37, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Mitchumch: "Infoboxes are a basic convention used on all types of biographical articles on Wikipedia, not particular types of biographical articles or of a given length." - untrue
- There. We can all chat bullshit, can't we? CassiantoTalk 21:23, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Let's arrive here from the outside using the two major search engines. Basic life information is provided by Google and Bing. Both provide a suitable thumbnail of the biography. People who are looking for this type of information get it at the search engine level; they don't need to come to WP for it. Those who do, are likely to be serious readers interested in the article. We hope (talk) 21:18, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @We hope: Your user page does a better job of stating your position on infoboxes. Mitchumch (talk) 21:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- There is no requirement for articles to have an infobox and my opinion is they should be optional--until they were forced onto articles where the main contributors elected not to have one. If you're attempting to embarrass me, you've not succeeded. We hope (talk) 21:43, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Some biographies, especially those related to the liberal arts field, do not benefit from having infoboxes. The infobox in this case emphasises unimportant factoids and undermines the lead. It also obstructs the presentation and looks far more attractive as a standalone image. I disagree with including an infobox in this article because the most important points in it are already discussed in the lead (albeit in the first paragraph), or adequately discussed in the body of the article. The infobox in this case is redundant because it doesn't add any value and hampers the layout. The infobox template creates a block of code at the top of the edit screen that discourages new editors from editing the article. See WP:DISINFOBOX. JAGUAR 22:17, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @We hope: @GoodDay: @Jaguar: Conversely, there is no requirement for an article to NOT have an infobox. The only arguments presented thus far are personal opinions that amount to "I don't like infoboxes". Infoboxes are routinely accepted (and not objected to) during article reviews for FA - including for liberal arts fields. Wikipedia:Disinfoboxes is just an essay, not a policy. I agree with KoshVorlon, Emir of Wikipedia, and Softlavender.
- We hope, I'm not trying to embarrass you. If it's on your user page, then how can it be embarrassing? I think your user page does a better job of stating your position on the site wide use of infoboxes.
- If your anti-infobox, then be proud and say it loud and link to the infobox cases to prove your point.
- The top of every article that is being edited states, "Work submitted to Wikipedia can be edited, used, and redistributed—by anyone—subject to certain terms and conditions." No editor or editors own an article, main contributor or not. Mitchumch (talk) 22:39, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- My position on when infoboxes should & shouldn't be used in bio articles, is quite clear. We've a discussion at MOS:INFOBOX concerning this topic. IMHO, it would be better to settle things there, then have countless discussions across bio articles. GoodDay (talk) 23:12, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- The top of every article that is being edited states, "Work submitted to Wikipedia can be edited, used, and redistributed—by anyone—subject to certain terms and conditions." No editor or editors own an article, main contributor or not. Mitchumch (talk) 22:39, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- Sorry to interrupt your canvassing, Mitchumch, but what exactly does We hope's user page have to do with this conversation? CassiantoTalk 22:51, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) I'm certain that mine, GoodDay's, and We hope's arguments against using infoboxes aren't personal in any way. I believed we have all raised legitimate cases against the use of an infobox. And don't get me wrong, I like infoboxes, but only when they are used correctly. Every one of the GAs I've promoted has an infobox, but I also recognise when an infobox doesn't add any value and keeping them solely based on a prima facie case is wrong. An infobox is typically justified by summarising key points for someone who doesn't want to read through the entire article. But, in this instance, the infobox does nothing but repeat factoids which are already mentioned in the first paragraph of the lead. JAGUAR 22:54, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- You can also add me to your list, Jaguar, as shown here. An article I started, researched, and authored, and one which I decided to include an infobox on because I thought it worked and would benefit from one. CassiantoTalk 23:00, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
- @SchroCat: A thread is here. I am not on about idiotbox but an infobox. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:54, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
- And the thread does not overturn the long-standing consensus not to have an IB here. There has been no box since c.2012, so why you think it appropriate to edit war one in without that consensus being overturned? Just because a couple of people have added a box doesn't mean we need to have one, or we may as well admit that the IB bullying and attrition is so rampant that it may as well become common practice. You should know better than to try and force the issue without a clearly reached consensus. - SchroCat (talk) 13:02, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
- And canvassing too? Really? – SchroCat (talk) 13:04, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Canvassing says
In general, it is perfectly acceptable to notify other editors of ongoing discussions, provided that it be done with the intent to improve the quality of the discussion by broadening participation to more fully achieve consensus.
, it is better to do that they to make good faith editors mistakenly think that there is some consensus to not include. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 13:08, 7 April 2018 (UTC)- And it continues "
Canvassing is notification done with the intention of influencing the outcome of a discussion in a particular way, and is considered inappropriate
". Looking at the list of behaviour at Inappropriate notification, it lists biased or partisan as two things that are inappropriate. Contacting only people who you know will side with you is inappropriate. – SchroCat (talk) 13:36, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
