Untitled[edit]

I think this actor played in the lord of the rings, is this possible?

I was wondering that today but I found out it's a different actor. Craig Parker.

Can we get a picture for Tom please?

Fair use rationale for Image:CutlerBeckett.jpg[edit]

Image:CutlerBeckett.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Cambridge[edit]

"He read English at Selwyn College, Cambridge while actively participating in the many extracurricular theatre activities that Cambridge University offers."

Is it just me or is this a slightly irrelevant plug for Cambridge University?! Beantrees (talk) 13:18, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Religion[edit]

The page states he is a Christian and that he finds atheism irritating, but if you read the entirety of the article referenced, he actually says he is an atheist himself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.59.81.108 (talk) 03:23, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I checked both articles and you are right, he waffles around quite a bit from atheism, to agnosticism, to sort-of maybe Christian. There's no definitive current statement so I deleted all the Original Research and misquotes. Softlavender (talk) 11:32, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Writing in The Spectator[edit]

He has an occasional diary-style column in The Spectator^[1] which is funny and thoughtful and seems like the sort of thing that should be mentioned in the article. However it would feel a bit dry to write "Since 2008 he has written a diary-style column for The Spectator" without acknowledging how funny they are, and how much people like his writing. Anyone know of a good reference for that? I'm not sure the stream of tweets praising his writing counts but here are the search results for Tom Hollander Spectator^[2] JoBrodie (talk) 18:02, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
