[edit]Has anyone ever noticed that Rebecca, in the original version of RE1, has an appearance that could've been drawn from that of the character Barbara in the remake of Night of the Living Dead (which RE1 makes several references to, a less-than-obvious one being a shot of a balcony)?
† Once and for all: Is Rebecca alive or dead?
- Whereabouts unknown. We don't know if she is dead or alive. I'd say alive though, if the other STARS left Raccoon she surely went with them. Parjay 14:20, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Lynn Harris: Real or Fake
[edit]An anonymous editor recently added Lynn Harris as the voice actress that portrayed Rebecca Chambers in the original Resident Evil and cites IMDB as its source. However, as far as I know, no actors are officially credited in the original Resident Evil other than the live-action actors who are credited by their first names only. Anyone care to cite an official source (from Capcom or a voice acting agency). Jonny2x4 06:46, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
- Check out Lynn Harris (IV). She voiced Chamber's character in the 1996 English version of the RE --ShadowJester07 07:08, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
- Yes Lynn Harris voiced and protrayed 'Becca in the original versions of RE. Parjay 12:49, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
- I needed something more concrete than IMDB. Thankfully a random Google search led me to a Japanese Gaijin Tarento site. Yes, the voice is unmistakable. I'm a believer, now. [1] Jonny2x4 05:08, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
- Well it's about time, to be honest. Also, a simple google image search for her will show you a decade older Rebecca. Parjay 12:18, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Hey, according to Residentevilfan.com, the voice actress of Rebecca in Resident Evil 0 is an actress named Riva Di Paola.-http://www.residentevilfan.com/actors/actors.asp?p=39 shouldn't this be added to Rebecca's page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.71.56.160 (talk) 04:47, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- residentevilfan.com is not a reliable source... then again, IMDB.com is probably worse. O_o --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 05:20, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- what is the problem with imdb? Doktor Wilhelm 05:43, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- The fact that anyone can edit it. It would be the equivalent of using a Wikipeida article to cite another Wikipedia article. Back in the summer, a bunch of people kept adding cast data to IMDB's article for RE5 - leading many gullible people to believe that Capcom had assembled an all-star group of voice actors.[2] --ShadowJester07 ► Talk 05:48, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you, I didn't know IMDB was a user generated site, but now that I think about it! Doktor Wilhelm 16:33, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
Yes, but residentevilfan.com is one of the most reliable RE sites out there, and besides, her resume also confirms it- http://voice123.com/rivadipaola —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.71.56.160 (talk) 03:25, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- Riva DiPaola is credited in the actual game too. Jonny2x4 (talk) 07:23, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Mentioning what she is on the cover of
[edit]They are promoting an aspect of the game. Not only is it OR to say that the game is promoting Rebecca, when it is merely giving a visual demonstration of the character you will be playing as, but it's laughable that you said it's promotional because she's an attractive female. You've basically declared what Capcom was thinking when they put her on a cover of a video game. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 21:18, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
- You mean marketing people don't always put someone who is physically attractive on the cover of their product? Do you have a case of this NOT happening? Dream Focus 21:21, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
- How many people believe [3] the information should be put back in somewhere? Dream Focus 21:24, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
- So basically, your argument is that we should assume the motives of marketing people, that they put Rebecca on the cover in order to promote her? Give me one good reason why we are allowed to ignore the original research rule in this case. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 21:30, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
- Isn't the cover of something called promotional art? The box cover is done to promote what's inside. Make it look appealing to the customer. Anyway, we should stick that information somewhere in the article. Dream Focus 22:09, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
- It promotes the game, not the characters. To say she is the protagonist of RE0 is sufficient. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 20:11, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

- Rebecca Chambers (Resident Evil) → Rebecca Chambers
- Rebecca Chambers → Rebecca Chambers (disambiguation)
– Clearly theres no other known "Rebecca Chambers" but a Resident Evil character. So I think it should be primary topic. BloatedBun (talk) 09:31, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
- Comment there is a Rebecca Chambers (pianist) which is on Wikipedia for 12 years and counting. I believe that this should be the primary topic by having a look at the length of the articles. And "Disambiguation" should not be capitalised either if the base name gets moved to your suggested title. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 10:40, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
- The pianist isn't actually best known as Rebecca Chambers. Just because the article has been created for 12 years doesn't mean it should be the primary topic. If we search on Google for "Rebecca Chambers", a fictional character always comes first and has more page veiws. Anyway, you're right that the disambiguation title name should be lower case and will be like "(disambiguation)" instead. BloatedBun (talk) 11:21, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
- Probably should have specified: the fictional character is what I was talking about re the primary topic. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 21:57, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

- Support Clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the name "Rebecca Chambers" by pageviews. Becky Chambers (author) must also be moved to Becky Chambers per WP:SMALLDETAILS. A hatnote should be placed on the Rebecca Chambers article pointing to Becky Chambers, then the disambig page. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:20, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
- Comment No opinion on the requested move, but agree with the above suggestion to move Becky Chambers (author) to Becky Chambers. 162 etc. (talk) 16:09, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
- Support per page views. Zxcvbnm's opinion seems more reasonable. 2001:4455:656:4D00:CC14:4186:D18C:A6E2 (talk) 11:17, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
- Support Zxcvbnm's expanded take which involve all the other relevant pages. Haleth (talk) 12:05, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
- Support per rationale, and take Zxcvbnm's proposed route. Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 02:33, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
- Support. Clear WP:Primarytopic. Neocorelight (Talk) 23:54, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
