Semi-protected edit request on 19 February 2015

Please change "he appeared in the science-fiction film The Day After Tomorrow, portraying a student caught in a cataclysmic global cooling event." to "he appeared in the science-fiction film The Day After Tomorrow, portraying a student caught in a cataclysmic global warming event." REASON FOR CHANGE: The movie THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW depicts a world where global warming triggers an abrupt climate change, creating a global superstorm that unleashes unimaginable worldwide weather disasters. In the span of just a few days, tornados devastate Los Angeles, huge hail pounds Tokyo, and colossal tsunamis and blizzards whip New York. Jcrply (talk) 00:47, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. The article for The Day After Tomorrow also describes the film as depicting a global cooling event. The description on this page should not be changed unless that article is also changed. RudolfRed (talk) 01:51, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As of this writing, the article for The Day After Tomorrow has had a similar argument, and that film is now categorized as "climate fiction-disaster film". Given how little importance the classification of this film has on the Jake Gyllenhaal article, I would agree with you (RudolfRed) that we should respect whatever classification is listed there. I'm going to go ahead and make this change. Juansmith (talk) 23:11, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Musical interests and skills

I see no mention in the article of Jake Gyllenhaal's musical abilities, performances, interests or skills. This is strange, because he gives a creditable few seconds' worth of basic rock drumming in Proof, and some bloggers mention him playing trumpet, keyboard and other instruments. A logical place for mentioning these would be under the Jake Gyllenhaal#Politics and other interests section, unless of course he uses those skills professionally.

There are quite many dead links in this article [1], and some of them cannot be replaced by another link (I translated it into Vietnamese and did try to fix). Is there any way to fix them? Hien712 (talk) 22:19, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I've tagged them all, that's a start. --Ebyabe talk - Attract and Repel22:59, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Jake Gyllenhaal. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

godparents

Note: Newman is not Gyllenhaal's actual god father, and despite popular belief Newman did not teach Jake to drive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evelynkircher (talkcontribs) 01:25, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

if he is Jewish (or Buddhist), why does he have godparents or is a godparent?--99.253.58.249 (talk) 02:39, 18 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lead image

Previous
Replacement

The long-standing lead image was recently replaced. I realise that the replacement is newer, but the former image was better suited as a lead image for several reasons and it should be reinstated. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:25, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well I disagree, the idea is to have a more current image of the actor, the one that was previously is 2015. The last one is 2016. The truth I do not see any sense to have an image of 2 years ago put in the template.--Philip J Fry Talk to me 17:27, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox pic change?

I think that the infobox pic should be changed back to this one. His face is much more visible there in comparison to the current one, which has odd lighting in my opinion. 100cellsman (talk) 19:43, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Politics and other interests -- Possible addition:

For the 2018 midterm elections, Jake Gyllenhaal endorsed Beto O'Rourke as Texas senator [1] in a hotly contested and nationally publicized race that Ted Cruz, the incumbent, eventually won. His endorsement came in the form of a facebook post that included a picture of him in a "BETO" shirt and lengthy caption that also endorsed Stacey Abrams, Andrew Gillum, Kyrsten Sinema, and Jacky Rosen in their respective Senate or gubernatorial elections.

Semi-protected edit request on 10 November 2019

Add: "On July 11, 2019, it was noted Gyllenhaal’s production company, Nine Stories, (in conjunction with Seaview Productions, Troy Carter and Level Forward) will be releasing “Slave Play,” directed by Robert O’Hara to be released in New York City in late 2019."

 Not done for now: The way the suggested addition is worded may be misleading to readers. It states that Gyllenhaal's company "will be releasing Slave Play", while the Deadline source states that Gyllenhaal and Riva Marker's company only signed on to become one of the producers of the play after its original start, where it ran in much smaller venues for just under a year and without any input from Gyllenhaal. That point needs to be clarified.  Spintendo  22:23, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jake Gyllenhaal has dropped out of Columbia University and did not finish school it shouldn't say "alma mater Columbia University"

 Not done From alma mater: "[it] is an allegorical Latin phrase for a university, school, or college that one formerly attended. In US usage, it can also mean the school from which one graduated." (CC) Tbhotch 15:19, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Swedish Pronunciation

The Swedish pronunciation is [ˈjʏ̂lːɛnˌhoːl], not [ˈjʏ̂lːɛnˌhɑːl]. Conan O'Brien is not a reliable source. The "aa" digraph is a variant spelling of "å" (pronounced [ɔ] when short, [o:] when long as in this name) encountered chiefly in some names and situations in which "å" cannot be written. 2001:16B8:463B:5200:5D8F:BD45:E251:5E66 (talk) 16:46, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
