University of Victoria -or- University of British Columbia? Bios on the web show both? Southsloper 10:34, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
Somebody removed a mention of Linda Park not being related to her, and then somebody added it back. Now there is a mention of two Parks that are unrelated to Grace Park. After some thought I decided to remove both mentions. Not only does this serve negligible utility (is it helpful to list all the Parks that are unrelated on every page about a Park?), it even reeks of ignorance.
The usual procedure is to only list people who are related. For disambiguation reasons there might also be a note at the top for people with identical or similar names. Why on Earth should we mention that someone with a Korean last name used by 9% of Korea is unrelated to another Korean? The article on John Raphael Smith does not mention he is unrelated to Kevin Smith. That would be silly for essentially the same reason. -- C S (Talk) 23:40, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
ME: Are you related to Linda Park from Enterprise?
GP: No. I think there are six Park clans. I'm not sure which one Linda Park is in.
"Park" is one of the most popular last names in Korea. Listing every person named "Park" and specifying that they are not related is not only useless, but reeks of cultural ignorance and western-centrism. It reads like "Park is not a common name here, therefore it is not a common name at all and everyone with that name must be of the same family." And saying "well, they're both actresses, therefore it's easy to get them confused" is nonesense. Last I checked, people didn't have trouble telling Kevin Smith apart from Will Smith. -- Ritchy 03:44, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
For the record, I did not originate the sentence that you two are determined to erase. I regarded your actions recently as vandalism and I took the reactionary move to restore the line. I pointed out the Baker-Doctor Who Wiki info to you, which you want to dismiss. But I'll give you another: actresses Jean and Maureen Stapleton. Neither of them are related, but had to be pointed out since there are (to my knowledge) only two "Stapleton" actresses in the actress industry that are famous. I don't see anybody of their respective backgrounds being offended, and deleting the info. When I read their Wiki pages a while ago, I would think its fair to keep the Grace-Linda line. Grace and Linda are close in age, working in the same genre (science fiction) and their fame came at almost the same time. These are the only "Park" actors in the industry that I know of, and I'm sure for those reading their Wiki pages, can't think of anybody else either.
Keep in mind, no other editors of this Grace page is complaining or have removed the sentence until you two did. And its been around for a while. So I don't think they saw this the same way you did and seen nothing wrong. I would like to hear other Grace Park editors for their take on this issue whether or not they side with you or me. Because I doubt I am in the minority. Billythekid16 10:05, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Well it's been a couple of days and no one said anything. At this point, most of the wikipedians and arguments are for removing the sentence, with only one person argueing for keeping it on the basis that "they're both in sci-fi". So I'll go ahead and remove the line. --

Grace Park, the Canadian actress, was not born in 1980. She was two years ahead of me and graduated from high school (Magee Secondary, Vancouver, Canada) in 1992 - I have the yearbook to prove it! http://www.pegasus3d.com/gracepark/index.html Although I am not sure how old she is (as some people graduate earlier and later than normal) I am guessing her birth year to be approximately 1974. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.83.233.248 ( talk) 08:58, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
And what is a verifiable source? The graduation picture hanging in Magee Secondary? Or her graduation picture and blurb from the 1992 yearbook? The latter is now available: http://www.pegasus3d.com/gracepark/index.html
It is also interesting how Katee Sackhoff, also of Battlestar Galactica fame, is also born on April 8, 1980, according to Wikipedia. Coincidence? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.83.233.248 ( talk) 08:58, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
Adding to the age discussion: Grace was a friend of mine back in high school (Magee) - she and I sang together and I think we had one class together. I was Class of '91 and she was Class of '92. She was definitely born in 1974. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Terricha ( talk • contribs) 06:48, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
At this point, we have the 1974 date which could theoretically be backed up from her graduating secondary school in 1992
[3], we have one source
[4] that says 1979, IMDB has her at 1980. At this point, i'd say we should leave the birthdate out until we know for certain. Anyone found anything else yet? --

imdb is now listing her dob as March 6, 1979. Also, tv.com no longer claims she graduated from secondary school in 1992 [5] and it also claims her dob is March 6, 1979. The xenite fansite claims the same. If all these sources are unified, maybe we should move to that date, even if there is the possibility of the month/day mixup with the golfer.

She talks about her age in part 3 of her Q and A at scifi.com. Notable but not exactly helpful. Paladin677 07:14, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
In the Q+A she confirms that the DOB on IMDB is correct, therefore I changed it but it has been changed back. She even says how other sites have her DOB wrong. Unless you are going to dispute that she doesnt know her own DOB or that she is lying then I suppose this is the most reliable source we have ?

I wrote the following on someone's talk page, but then I realized I should have put some of the info here to clear up some of the confusion for new readers of this talk page:
Please do not change the date again without providing a source to counter the two references. Brad Thompson has stated Grace Park told him it was March 14, 1974. Additionally, the IMDB used to have the wrong dates, but eventually changed it to that (this is explained in the second source). The previous dates the IMDB had were Katee Sackhoff's birthdate and Grace Park the golfer's birthdate, which is March 6, 1979. Grace Park also mentioned in a video interview that IMDB got it right, while implying that her birthdate was not the same as either of those two. Since you are insistent on March 6, 1974, I wonder if you got mixed up with the earlier confusion with the golfer. I also wonder if the interview you mention is the same one I just described. -- C S (Talk) 17:26, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
By the way, I took another look at that interview, and I caught something that might be the source of your confusion (and which confused several people on the talk page). While she's talking, the video shows a computer screen displaying IMDB with her birthdate as March 6, 1979. She clearly states that IMDB has her birthdate, while other sites have it wrong, confusing it with Sackhoff's b-date or the other Park's b-date. Apparently, IMDB had it wrong when they took the screen capture, but correct when she viewed it. In any case, since Park is not in charge of the video editing, I would disregard the screen capture. Especially since Park the golfer has b-date March 6, 1979 (e.g. see her official website bio), and the supplementary evidence I mentioned above. -- C S (Talk) 19:45, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
One thing only struck me after all this. Doesn't WP:BLP basically suggest that since in this case her birthday is not widely known, we should respect the subject's privacy and not put her complete birthdate? -- C S (Talk) 20:03, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

I edited out the bit about her drawl, because it is both unsourced, and unneeded.

Either she should be listed as only playing Boomer (not #8) on Battlestar Galactica, or there should be a spoiler warning. Think of all the poor people watching season one of Battlestar Galactica, who get too much information from this article. I know it's ridiculous, but I'll just add the spoiler warning, it's better to be ridiculous than to ruin someone's life. :) Erik E. 16:00, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
You should keep in mind that this is suppose to be a general page about Grace, not about Galactica. Not everybody is interested in watching that show, so saying very briefly what role(s) she played from the outset won't hurt. Spoilers here is irrelevant. - BillytheKid16 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Billythekid16 ( talk • contribs) 16:02, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
You jerks! I *just* started season one and looked her up. That's a pretty serious spoiler. How is a plot twist in a show in which she played a role important in a "general page about Grace"? Who would even have any idea what that meant, *except* people who watched or are watching the show? Saying she is well known for playing a role on BSG is fine -- giving away the plot is just mean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.54.15.27 ( talk) 09:08, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Ooooooooh! It's an Encyclopedia! Of course!! In that case, could you go edit Kevin Spacey's entry so that it says in the first 'graph that he played Roger "Verbal" Kint in The Usual Suspects and guess what? Verbal is really Keyser Söze! Because in Encyclopediae, it is essential that plot twists integral to dramatic development are full disclosed as early as possible in entries about the actors playing those roles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 154.5.42.37 ( talk) 19:23, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

FWIW, the fact that Grace Park's character is a cylon is revealed in the mini-series, which was the very first 'episode'. After you watch the mini-series, it's no longer a spoiler. 67.184.14.87 ( talk) 22:30, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Anybody knows if Grace is related to Susie Park?? Pictureuploader 16:05, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Or to Star Trek: Enterprise's Linda Park or actor/comedian Randall Park? All three are Korean-American and have the same last name so I wonder if there is a connection. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 164.42.103.32 ( talk) 17:15, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
It's the third most common Korean surname ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_name#Family_names_2) so sharing it doesn't mean there is a likely family connection. 94.170.25.203 ( talk) 14:58, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
I fear that I might be losing my mind, so I had to post here first; the name listed in the article is romanized as Jee Un Park, where as the Korean text provided, 박민경, would be romanized Pak Ming-Yeong. Last name of course comes first in Asian culture, and "Pak" is oft written as "Park" in English. But where in the blue blazes does Ming-Yeong come from? It's not even close to Jee Un (지운). The Korean text is not in either of the references given for the first block of text, nor in citation #4, a quote from a biography (which I have not read, so I can't check). Now I'm wondering where did the Korean text come from? And which is correct, Jee Un or Ming-Yeong? -- 88.112.175.211 ( talk) 13:25, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
Why's the career section missing her 5 years on the show? -- 70.24.250.26 ( talk) 08:16, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
It currently says that Grace Park's parents are American-Korean. Doesn't that mean that her parents are of American descent living in Korea? It seems much more likely that her parents are Korean-American (Korean descent living in America), given that Grace Park looks Korean, has a Korean last name, and was born in America. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.132.1.191 ( talk) 22:17, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
Actually it looks like her, and her family all live in Canada and have done so for thirty or more years, so Korean-Cdn is more accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.180.199.227 ( talk) 04:40, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
This is almost completely ripped from AskMen.com without using any sources besides being less detailed ( http://www.askmen.com/celebs/women/actress_300/323_grace_park.html). Also, birthdate given is March 9, 1979. Someone needs to fix this. When I first read bio without the age the first thought that came to my mind was her publicist didn't want people knowing she is pushing 40. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.30.91.159 ( talk) January 21, 2013
An unsourced edit today states that Park has one child. I think that's correct (there have been rumors, and she's been off the show purportedly during her pregnancy), but there's no reliable source stating this. The closest I could find is a blog entry (not qualifying as a reliable source) that says, with no attribution, "sources say Grace had a baby boy recently..." Wikipedia is not in the business of trying to scoop the mainstream media; so I'm reverting the edit. Assuming this is true (and I believe it is, but my belief is of no import), we can add it to the article after it is reported. TJRC ( talk) 23:15, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Shouldn't Command and Conquer 3 be in the filmography list instead of in a video games section? If we see Josh_Holloway's filmography, C&C3 is in the list.-- Jim88Argentina ( talk) 23:17, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
Apparently she only speaks English and understands some Korean. Hollywood 411 -- 71.174.241.225 ( talk) 14:04, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Another part of the same article claims that she is "fluent" in Korea. One of these two entries should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.136.138.196 ( talk) 22:19, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Anybody knows if Grace is related to Susie Park?? Pictureuploader 16:05, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Or to Star Trek: Enterprise's Linda Park or actor/comedian Randall Park? All three are Korean-American and have the same last name so I wonder if there is a connection. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 164.42.103.32 ( talk) 17:15, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
It's the third most common Korean surname ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_name#Family_names_2) so sharing it doesn't mean there is a likely family connection. 94.170.25.203 ( talk) 14:58, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
I fear that I might be losing my mind, so I had to post here first; the name listed in the article is romanized as Jee Un Park, where as the Korean text provided, 박민경, would be romanized Pak Ming-Yeong. Last name of course comes first in Asian culture, and "Pak" is oft written as "Park" in English. But where in the blue blazes does Ming-Yeong come from? It's not even close to Jee Un (지운). The Korean text is not in either of the references given for the first block of text, nor in citation #4, a quote from a biography (which I have not read, so I can't check). Now I'm wondering where did the Korean text come from? And which is correct, Jee Un or Ming-Yeong? -- 88.112.175.211 ( talk) 13:25, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
Why's the career section missing her 5 years on the show? -- 70.24.250.26 ( talk) 08:16, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
It currently says that Grace Park's parents are American-Korean. Doesn't that mean that her parents are of American descent living in Korea? It seems much more likely that her parents are Korean-American (Korean descent living in America), given that Grace Park looks Korean, has a Korean last name, and was born in America. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.132.1.191 ( talk) 22:17, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
Actually it looks like her, and her family all live in Canada and have done so for thirty or more years, so Korean-Cdn is more accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.180.199.227 ( talk) 04:40, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
This is almost completely ripped from AskMen.com without using any sources besides being less detailed ( http://www.askmen.com/celebs/women/actress_300/323_grace_park.html). Also, birthdate given is March 9, 1979. Someone needs to fix this. When I first read bio without the age the first thought that came to my mind was her publicist didn't want people knowing she is pushing 40. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.30.91.159 ( talk) January 21, 2013
An unsourced edit today states that Park has one child. I think that's correct (there have been rumors, and she's been off the show purportedly during her pregnancy), but there's no reliable source stating this. The closest I could find is a blog entry (not qualifying as a reliable source) that says, with no attribution, "sources say Grace had a baby boy recently..." Wikipedia is not in the business of trying to scoop the mainstream media; so I'm reverting the edit. Assuming this is true (and I believe it is, but my belief is of no import), we can add it to the article after it is reported. TJRC ( talk) 23:15, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
