Photos of her

I don't see much similarity between the two photos. It seems to me that only one is really showing here. Fulcher (talk) 07:48, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On the first photo she was a child. After the sexual hormons kick in, all people look different... --178.197.227.63 (talk) 21:27, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The second photo should be still sourced, which is not the case. There is almost no information attached to it. 2003:E9:5F4E:CD27:F924:4983:8109:FCE9 (talk) 15:16, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The two photos are quite obviously of the same person, without doubt. Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:12, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Don't want to be rude, but this means absolutely nothing until it is not sourced. And, like wiki-user Fulcher said above, I personally don't see such strong similarities.

Besides, in this documentary of the very respected german magazine "Der Spiegel" (link here, at 7:06: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yvReAZbi5g), it is said that there is only one known photo of her, which in this case is the first one on her wikipage.

Edit: well, “Der Spiegel” was wrong, there are definitely other photos of here, at least a second version of the first one, from austria's national library: https://onb.wg.picturemaxx.com/thumb.php/00040585.jpg?eJwljL0KAjEQhN9l6is2l4Qk20kaBU_BE9RKguaqq9SrxHd3jMXux_wwb-QVdCrzs3bIayhAnqGGuDRsN1BL7Bje63LlsTNQiYgTH_1PHlt3hPb8GeqI4e8xej0W7p_GZhygQaTDnhLeuWrSbQoxlGhM7KMtRXpfkxQbU8DnC0ZYJnM~

As for the second photo, my research for the original source points to the Archiv für Kunst und Geschichte, one of the biggest picture archive in Europe, also the Bildagentur für Kunst, Kultur und Geschichte, picture agency of the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, and picturedesk, Austria’s leading image agency. However, both don’t state where they precisely got the picture from, they simply source themselves, though they seem to be credible sources. But if you see which other portraits they identify as Klara Hitler (like this very unsimilar one: https://www.akg-images.de/Assets/V2/SJIcOUG8BWcMpRhjocRf8vXgkeFUMAghxXDlQm20m6LMRVGKp9vQl83gnY@CBEqqEjaiBjRoKTuzE3LCd3dnjVw450DJ@QH3ojN2IVdJMp3G7psgWxEX2aWPhQtxK5c3/wfAPLTyUDWTrHQMx/OWzIQPbpW2@ZZSJ_/AKG5861.jpg), it could be still a wrong assimilation from them… 2003:E9:5F22:6B71:E14F:AF4F:69B7:8CFD (talk) 14:22, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced trivia

There is a popular culture section that is entirely unsourced. I see no reason for this to be in the article, even if sourced. It is irrelevant to the article if she was mentioned in an American Dad episode. Jon698 (talk) 23:49, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Under that argument, every "In popular culture" section in all Wikipedia articles would be removed, but the community has consistently rejected that. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:52, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Beyond My Ken: Minor references, such as Family Guy cutaways, are generally avoided. Jon698 (talk) 00:02, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Are they? Not in my experience. (And it wasn't a cutaway, it was a plot point which resulted in the happy ending for the episode). Do not edit war over this, leave the article in the status quo ante while discuss in ongoing, per WP:BRD. Beyond My Ken (talk) 00:12, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also unsourced material shouldn't be added to Wikipedia. Jon698 (talk) 00:15, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Roald Dahl story and television adaption can be kept as it will be easy to find sourcing for it. There are probably other notable books involving her as well. Jon698 (talk) 00:40, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have no objection to "CN" tags being added. Beyond My Ken (talk) 01:40, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
