Einstein's niece

copied from Wikipedia:Reference desk/Humanities. Jay 10:39, 20 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I.Q. (film) is a movie revolving around Albert Einstein's niece Elizabeth Boyd. Is she fictional ? Einstein's only sibling Maja, didn't have children, so is the neice from one of his cousins ? Jay 18:29, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Jay, I believe she's totally fictional. At least, I have seen no references to any niece of Albert Einstein... On, and actually, the name of the character is Catherine Boyd, instead of Elizabeth. At least, this is what I read on IMDB.com. Milena 19:36, September 6, 2005 (UTC)

The only person near Boyd' age living in the Einstein household was his stepdaughter, the daughter of his second wife.

Amazing, a work of fiction has fictional elements!

Fair use rationale for Image:IQposter.jpg

Image:IQposter.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 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.

Nathan Liebknecht

Does anyone know why Einstein's third physicist friend was fictional while Godel and Podolsky were real? Did the writers simply run out of Western European elderly physicists that Einstein knew in real life, and decided the comedic dynamic worked better with four people? Or was the fictional scientist based on someone real? VolatileChemical (talk) 19:22, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My guess is that, unlike, Godel, Einstein, and Podolsky, Nathan Rosen was still alive at the time the film was released, hence the Nathan Liebknecht stand-in for Nathan Rosen, who did work with Einstein and Podolsky. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.124.127.30 (talk) 20:10, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
