Born a male?

Born a male and had a sex change at 2 years old? Sounds extremely unlikely. Did the poster mean she was born a hermaphrodite with both male and female sex organs and had a sex determination operation?— Preceding unsigned comment added by ROM SPACEKNIGHT (talk • contribs)

It was vandalism. Dismas|^(talk) 08:35, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

photo

Hey, does anyone mind if I replace the photo with one where she's wearing some clothes? It seems like someone hunted down the single sexiest shot of her on the net and used it here. Maybe a shot of her from the show would be more appropriate. Darthmix 20:44, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Although you're right. :) Lambertman 21:17, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that would be better. It'll be deleted soon anyway. Iorek85 21:27, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How do you add a photo? I tried but it didn't show up 87.74.35.237 23:34, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose any picture of her would be one of the sexiest on this planet. Hoborobo234 (talk) 10:52, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia

The trivia section is taken directly from this site: [1]

facts shouldn't be copyrighted, we just need to rewrite them

Jgold03 04:43, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The "Cake" film has been released yet? That'll need some research/alterations

I have started a triva section, please note all of the triva is not pasted from another site.

Quote

I'm pretty sure someone just added in the second half of the quote. Does anyone have any proof, or can it be taken out? Qzorp 05:38, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Has yet to take a leading role"?

She starred in Why I Wore Lipstick. VelvetKevorkian 11:21, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation

Anyone care to add pronunciation of her last name? Is it "chalk" or "chalk-ee" or something else? Cburnett 17:31, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just Chalk. Riana (talk) 15:16, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

no photo...

we need a new one up there seems someone deleted it —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.188.40.35 (talk) 01:11, 13 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Done, I added the image from the articles about Elliot Reid.Jamie jca 22:29, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently its not free image for some reason. Finding a copyright-free picture for Sarah is a disaster... Rubik123 07:21, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

YES because she is sooo sexy :D (And she speaks german ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.193.89.89 (talk) 22:18, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cassandra

Isn't her full name Sarah Cassandra Chalke? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.127.170.42 (talk) 22:07, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

German

Her German is fairly good but definitely not fluent, though her French is.

Who says that?

As German I say, it is not fairly good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.103.216.29 (talk) 18:24, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not good enough. Need more sources. Besides, remember in clips in shows/tv series, the character is not suppose to be fluent. Chalke herself was raised by a German mother and had to attend German Language school. It is quite possible she is fluent (though her pronunciation may be off from her surroundings - my mother and aunts were fluent in Hungarian from being raised in a Hungarian-speaking household, though most natives say their accents/pronunciation are terrible. Fluency is more about complete comprehension in both directions).--Blondtraillite (talk) 16:54, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

American or Canadian?

I understand she was born and raised Canadian, but if she's a naturalized American citizen now then the opening paragraph should say she's an American, not a Canadian, actress. Her film and television credits as far as i can tell are all American. I think a re-write saying American actress of Canadian birth, or born and raised in Canada. I'm just curious if she had been born and raised in say, France or Poland, instead Canada if she would still have been listed as a "Polish actress" or French or whatever.148.78.243.26 (talk) 05:25, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Presumably she still has her Canadian citizenship as well. Which makes her still Canadian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.143.76.26 (talk) 15:44, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

But America doesn't allow dual-citizenship. By affirming an American citizen, she would have had to renounce her Canadian citizenship. 24.213.221.193 (talk) 22:54, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That is not true. They have allowed dual citizenship for a long time (more common with minors) but they can't make you give up citizenship in another country as laws differ. However, they can revoke your American citizenship under certain circumstances if you apply for another citizenship while an American citizen (see, for example, Dual Citizenship US Consular Services in Canada. This is actually quite common, despite the American draft and tax laws (I think you may have to choose one if drafted and they conflict, but having trouble searching that). And why not? Aside from the US being her home, I can say it sucks to be working in the country and not have a say, through the vote, of how your taxes are being spent in the US. If you have to pay them, and especially if you do look at it as home, you want to be sure they'll actually be doing some good. --Blondtraillite (talk) 16:47, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

SCRUBS HASN'T ENDED!

Under her filmography it says Scrubs (2001-2009), but no official announcement has been made that it won't get renewed for a ninth series. 86.148.103.165 (talk) 19:20, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography vs TV

At least one of her films (Ernest Goes to School) was credited in the tables as being a television credit. The movie did not appear in theaters, but still was not television (it was direct-to-film, according to its WikiPage). I assume it was placed under television as an accident so I moved it under film. If it was deliberate, I feel like some form of note/comment is in order.

Perhaps someone slightly more familiar with films/TV might scan through the remaining entries in the tables to make sure no other entries are erroneous. I caught this one only because the "Ernest" films are a childhood favorite :) Clayt85 (talk) 20:33, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
