1st or 15th?

Anyone know his actual birthday? Wiki says the 15th but his bio on CBS.com says the 1st? 87.194.114.231 (talk) 12:58, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Backstory?

Is it really unnecessary? Turly-burly 05:37, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Joan of Arc

Neil Patrick Harris played the role of Le Dauphin in the 1999 miniseries Joan of Arc with Leelee Sobieski. This should be added.

He also played in ""the man in the attic" (1995) thats not listed

"sneering"?

I thought "longtime sweetheart" was cute. 68.164.187.3 17:15, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it would be acceptable if stated thusly, ie "what the website described as his 'longtime sweetheart'" ... on the other hand, it's perfectly accurate now as well. One person's charming is another's sneering, obviously, all depends on how much coffee one has had before reading.Mowens35 17:25, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Celebrity Jeopardy

On November 13th 2006 Neil Patrick Harris defeated Bebe Newerth and James Denton on Celebrity Jeopardy, winning $50,000 for a charity that assists the homeless in LA. More details anyone?

Picture

Could we get a better picture? The one on here right now looks kind of cheap. I know we try to keep the pictures free of copyrights, but I think we can do that without sacrificing that much quality. --Sbrools ^{(talk . contribs)} 23:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The photo is photoshopped. The website depicted on his shirt added their logo to his shirt. Brain fork 18:24, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh! Not just spam, but a particularly sleazy and sneaky kind of spam. I vote get rid of that thing. MrBook 12:38, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

At some point the image of Harris was replaced with a non-free image. I have removed that image and replaced it with the original free image (following our attempts at the least restrictive media). Please don't replace an image that we can replicate for free with one that requires fair use and is not portable. Keegan^talk 05:09, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What a pity that -aparently- there is no fan club of this guy listed, thus we can ask them for a better pic that's free. The one displayed here not only is ugly but misleading. --Magnvss (talk) 23:07, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Harold and Kumar go to White Castle

He actually isn't playing himself. If you watch the commentary on the DVD he was purposely credited as palying 'Neil Patrick Harris' and not himself. In real life he isn't a sex/drug crazed heterosexual and that was the gist of the explanation of the commentary. I propose that 'himself' be removed from the article.

IMDB backs this. IMDB credits the two Harold and Kumar go to White castle movies as 'Neil Patrick Harris.' Other roles he's been in such as entertainment tonight are credited as himself.

Christopher Masterson

Were they separated at birth? They could be twins! Anyone else see it? --IdLoveOne (talk) 04:47, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 What is the reason for the short, selective "see also" section of other (rather obscure) gay actors?  He is already in the category [[category: gay actors from the United States]] -- so to the extent that it's not POV, it's redundant. I'm inclined to cut it.
