This isn't important to my opinion of him, but it is important to the article. Is he gay or not in real life?
How is whether he is gay or not important to the article? Why can't he be judged by his performances? Labeling is not necessary, now is it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.136.66.22 ( talk • contribs) 15:55, 4 December 2006 (UTC).
but it says a lot that, in homophobic america, a straight actor can portray a gay character so well, right? 76.217.121.84 17:02, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
His sexuality can be important for an article, but as said above over a year ago all signs point to "straight" and this is already very adequately covered in the article by mentioning his wife. JayKeaton ( talk) 20:37, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
If he were playing a black man, we would for sure mention the dissonance between his personal experiences and those of the character. This is just another example of how Wikipedia minimizes or excludes discussion on queer topics. I'm not sure whether it's complicity or conspiratorial, but the policies on the "biographies of living people" are an extension of "the closet" and effectively writes queers out of history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.211.168.17 ( talk) 17:13, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
The website listed as "Offical Website" is not Michael C. Hall's official website. A note on michaelchall.org says, "This is an unofficial fan built website. We have no affiliation with Michael C. Hall, his representatives, Showtime or HBO. All copyright is to their respective owners; no copyright infringement ever intended."

I am the real Michael Carlisle Hall!!!
Not Carlyle as the article suggests. It also says this on the interview that Wikipedia cited. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CKyle22 ( talk • contribs) 09:20, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
