editIn the article it is said she's German and was born in Germany. Still she's in "Austrian actor stubs" and with that, has a clapperboard with an Austrian flag. Nothing about Austria is said in the actual text. 85.217.36.50 (talk) 15:02, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
- And what is even stranger: she is said to be born in "Lengdorf, Styria". But when check the articles, they say Lengdorf is in Germany but Styria in Austria. I think that cannot be possible. 85.217.36.50 (talk) 15:07, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
Now I have located the problem. She was born in Lengdorf (Sankt Martin am Grimming), which do not have an own article even in German wikipedia. I'll edit the page accordingly. 85.217.42.90 (talk) 00:00, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Infobox could use a better picture of Christine Kaufmann
editThe infobox photo of Christine Kaufman was taken in 2014, which was three years before her death. She is 69 years old in the photo and obviously a senior citizen. It's logical and common sense that the infobox photo of a movie starlet should show the person when she was in her prime, not shortly before her death at age 72.
I would much rather see a picture of Kaufman when she made "Town Without Pity" in 1961. In that movie, she is a teenager and very beautiful. A picture of a woman when she was in the prime of physical beauty is more marketable than a photo of the same women more than half a century later.
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is a good example of how the press tries to show people in their best light. Mrs. Onassis died in 1994 at age 64. In her later years, she had lost most of her stunning physical attributes, which is typical for virtually all women, not just Onassis. When she died, Newsweek Magazine placed her portrait on its front cover. The photo was taken circa 1960 (about 35 years before her death), and she is shown as a beautiful woman. Newsweek knew that a photo from 1960 would sell more copies of the magazine than photo from 1993. That's common sense.
If I had a photograph of Christine Kaufmann from 1960 that wasn't copyrighted, I would replace the 2014 photo with the 1960 photo. Youth sells. Anthony22 (talk) 16:21, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
