[edit]

I heard that Andy Lau has origins from Xinhui, Guangdong which is a city near Taishan, Guangdong or Toisan (a famous city, known for as the hometown for many of the Chinese Americans and Canadians). Check out this site for proof: http://asianfanatics.net/gallery/index.php?cat=29


Moved comment from article

This article is a Work in Progress (WIP). No complaining!

Filmography needs chronological order fixes. I would be more than glad to help clean up, but am not sure of the release dates on many of these films. Any good resource besides IMDB I should consult?

Article is looking good by the way.


At present, Lau is still single. His sexual orientation was the hottest topic in entertainment news. He swore openly: "If I were gay, take AIDS to me!" His prospective mate is the topic of great debate among fans. However, in 2001, he came clean to the Hong Kong media about his girlfriend of 18 years, former Malaysian beauty queen Carol Zhu Liqian.

So that means he's not single anymore? If so why is it written that he is single yet has a girlfriend?

- whoa. 18 years and still just "girlfriend?" :o no he is MARRIED!!!!

- lol, probably because being a bachelor looks good when your audience is so much young swooning girls. ;D just a note, but Tony Leung Chiu Wai's love life parallels Andy's in this way too, with that 15+ years with Carina Lau.

songs

[edit]

Andy Lau writes/compose his own songs? Can someone verify with sources.

well if it is credited to him in his album. Is it then a viable source.Realdan 16:02, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

[edit]

given the long list of movies he has acted in...I would suggest it be linked to a separate article listing his complete filmography while the main article about him may have the recent one or more prominent one listed..Realdan 19:46, 28 January 2007 (UTC) You could check his latest cantonese album, half of them were written by himself. Actually, he started write since 1990's and he even writes songs for other singers.[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:AndyLau.jpg

[edit]

Image:AndyLau.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 Wikipedia articles 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.

If there is other 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Deletions by Active Banana

[edit]

There has been edits made by Active Banana that listing Lau as part of the Four heavenly king is not worthy. Additional claims were made that Mingpao is unreliable when it is among top 5 most reliable source. I believe these edit comments reveal the user may be too new to this topic. Possibly staying away from these articles is a good idea. Does anyone have any comments? Benjwong (talk) 04:02, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

quotes

[edit]

"Unless you are prepared to give up something valuable you will never be able to truly change at all, because you'll be forever in the control of things you can't give up." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.160.184.26 (talk) 19:25, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Incidents

[edit]

Removed an all caps block of text that did not contribute to the article. It appeared to be a rant about Andy Lau's refusal to "speak or read anything Mandarin" followed by a claim of copyright and threat of litigation if removed. - Wolfman 173.59.3.147 (talk) 21:13, 30 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
