is this a joke?[edit]

The early life info, and naming his daughter piper, piper pepper? yeah seems to me someones just being an ass —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.251.93.111 (talk) 02:51, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I assure you that his early info is correct. Refer to imdb bio and yahoo bio. IndulgentReader (talk) 05:06, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So what now did they change her name or something? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.231.164.178 (talk) 16:17, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Religion[edit]

Is he a Scientologist? 202.78.240.7 (talk) 20:40, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

[1] says he is a devout Christian.

Fansites[edit]

Inspired several fansites, including Meet Barry Pepper, created in 1998 by Jayne Childers, a fan from Virginia. Childers was personally contacted on more than one occasion by Barry Pepper, who also passed information and answers to questions from fans to the site via his brother, Doug. While the site remained an unofficial one, Pepper's tacit endorsement and willingness to communicate with his fans highlighted the respect he had for them. The site, last located at www.pepperfans.com, went offline in 2005.

This seems irrelevent and is full of NPOV, so I'm going to remove it. Willpower 04:03, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In what respect is it not a neutral point of view?Michael Dorosh 13:49, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well known from battlefield earth?[edit]

Did anyone see that movie, is it even possible to be well known from it as anything other than a boondoggle? Opcnup 17:12, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was his "big starring role" right after Saving Private Ryan; I think he came out of it rather well (I think the critics felt sorry for him). He will have a bright and probably lengthy future career as a gaunt-faced character actor. -Ashley Pomeroy 20:37, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Matrix Reloaded[edit]

"At the age of 16 he moved to Blackburn, England. Here, alongside fellow aspiring actor Joe Searson, he starred on the local production of 'The Matrix Reloaded'."

Appears to be a nonsense edit, but it's unclear as to how much, if any, of this statement is factual. Perhaps remove final sentence before anything else is done? Adg1034 (talk) 16:13, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to Barry Pepper Bio[edit]

I work for the talent agency that represents Mr. Pepper and would like to edit this article, particularly the career section and some of his credits, to fit better with his resume and bio that's been posted on other social media. I appreciate any/all help. Thank you.

Best,

Proposed Changes[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

replace infobox image of Barry Pepper

Hello, I have been asked by Barry Pepper to remove and replace the image that is currently on Wikipedia in the infobox, which shows up on all searches, and was not approved by Mr. Pepper. As per your documentation and COI information, I am requesting the change out here as his representative.

The image is obsolete and of lower quality than the newer professional image we would like to use. I have obtained permission by the photographer to use the new photo with the proper license waiver, and have submitted the required email proof of this to your permissions address. The new photo has been uploaded to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3ABarry_Pepper.jpg

Regards, KedsEditor (talk) 00:41, 22 July 2016 (UTC)KedsEditor[reply]

In addition to the above information, I would also like to add that I have contacted the original poster of the photograph who would be the only person that should have any objection to its replacement. I have not had a response. KedsEditor (talk) 00:24, 11 August 2016 (UTC)Kedseditor[reply]

Once the image permissions are verified by the OTRS team it can be replaced.--Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:02, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for that, and the response.KedsEditor (talk) 21:23, 11 August 2016 (UTC)kedseditor[reply]

I received confirmation that the permissions are now verified, and have checked the file has been cleared on Wikimedia. Regards, KedsEditor (talk) 16:47, 26 August 2016 (UTC)KedsEditor[reply]

OK, I've switched the images out.--Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:57, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for that, I have updated the caption for the new photo. Barry Pepper also sends his thanks.KedsEditor (talk) 16:52, 27 August 2016 (UTC)kedseditor[reply]
