I removed the bobcrane.com adult content note because the website no longer hosts Crane's "home movies"

I've tagged his decline with an "NPOV." It carries a somewhat moralistic tone, equating "church-going" with "good" and alleging that Carpenter was solely responsible for the turn of events. --AWF
I've seen reference online to Bob's experimentation with home made pornographic films as going back to 1956, which is many years before Carpenter and even Hogan.
Per his son, Robert Scott, Bob didn't go to church and he'd taken photos of himself with other women since the 1950s. I'm going to find the references and make changes regarding that.Gornzilla 03:32, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Addiction

The guy was filming pornos, he wasn't addicted, there was no enabler, this is religious nonsense talk. 83.70.248.72 14:25, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hundreds upon hundreds of films with random anonymous women is a dysfunctional view of sexuality, even if it doesn't end you marriage (which it did). If Crane had been a woman, sleeping with mindreds of men and filming it, she would've been stoned. Crane was sick; religion has nothing to do with it. And aparently he passed on his pathology to his younger son; hosting your own dad's extra-marital sex on your website? That's really weird. I'm sure his mother appreciated that.208.120.100.30 06:17, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think the point the article's trying to make is that the film/mythology around Crane made portrayed the whole porno thing as an addiction.--68.76.233.134 17:51, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Hogans-Heroes-book.jpg

Image:Hogans-Heroes-book.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 ensure 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Grave Site

I notice there's no mention of where Bob's buried. He's interred at Pierce Bros. Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery. Here's a photo of his grave marker: http://www.zooomr.com/photos/13173@Z01/790369/

Note: I am the owner of this photograph. Permission is given to include it in the article if someone wants to add it. I'd do it myself but I don't really savvy how to do that.Bwanderson (talk) 02:36, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

bobcrane.com link

The bobcrane.com link does not have any info about Bob Crane at this time. Instead, it is about one of his wives. Perhaps its inclusion in the article should be reconsidered.
