I happened to notice that there was a dead link in the References section associated with a Time magazine article entitled "Being Tom Cruise" (currently the fifth one on the list). I decided to see if it could be repaired, suspecting that the web page had simply moved to a different address on Time magazine's servers. This indeed turned out to be the case, with the URL of the article now at this location. I know that is the correct article because the old URL, www.time.com/time/europe/magazine/2002/0701/cruise/story2.html, indicates within the URL name itself (after "/magazine") that the article was published in the July 1, 2002 issue, which is the very same issue I have linked to above. Furthermore, on the third page of the article the information that was cited (that Tom Cruise's father died in 1984) is given.
After I found the page's new URL, I also noticed that the name of the article is incorrect. The actual name of the article is "About Tom," not "Being Tom Cruise." I believe this was a mistake that was the result of erroneously thinking that the headline on the magazine's cover, which reads "Being Tom," and the name of the cover story were identical, and then mixing that up with the title of the mockumentary Being Tom Cruise.
Please make those two corrections. Thank you! — Wthrman ( talk) 15:56, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

A bit of background: Surfsbruce ( talk · contribs) is a new editor who is yet to be autoconfirmed. Being incapable of adding the content he wants to this page, he requested I do it for him. However, because he is unconfirmed, I still feel it would be best for this edit to gain consensus. He wants this:
Cruise has starred in many Hollywood blockbusters, including Rain Man (1988), A Few Good Men (1992), Jerry Maguire (1996), Vanilla Sky (2001), Minority Report (2002), The Last Samurai (2003), Collateral (2004), War of the Worlds (2005), Tropic Thunder (2008) and Jack Reacher (2012). As of 2012, Cruise is Hollywood's highest-paid actor. [1]
to be changed to this:
Cruise has starred in many Hollywood blockbusters that grossed in excess of $200 million worldwide, including Top Gun (1986), Rain Man (1988), A Few Good Men (1992), The Firm (1993), Interview with the Vampire (1994), Jerry Maguire (1996), Vanilla Sky (2001), Minority Report (2002), Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002), The Last Samurai (2003), Collateral (2004), War of the Worlds (2005), Valkyrie (2008), Knight & Day (2010), Jack Reacher (2012) and the Mission: Impossible film series (each of the four films grossed over $200 million worldwide). As of 2012, Cruise is Hollywood's highest-paid actor. [2] [3] Nineteen films that Cruise has starred in have crossed $200 million worldwide, a feat achieved by no other actor. [4]

Hello,
I suggest an addition to the relationships section of Tom Cruise's page...
[[ He was rumored soon after his divorce to Katie Holmes to have been in a relationship with Cameron Diaz (his co-star in the 2001 movie "Vanilla Sky" and the 2010 film "Knight and Day") - but Mr. Cruise's acting industry 'Rep' stated to "E!news" in September of 2012, regarding this rumor, "It's false. They are friends." Cameron Diaz herself told U.K. talk show presenter Graham Norton (regarding a photo with Cruise on her 40th birthday), “I happened to bump into Penelope Cruz, Javier (Bardem), Tom and his son in a hotel and joined them for dinner. At midnight I said, ‘I’m 40′ so we took pictures and then said ‘Goodnight, see you later, blah, blah, blah’ and I haven’t seen him since. But the next thing I know, apparently I am dating him and it’s full on and he is coming after me.” Diaz and Cruise appeared together on the 25 July, 2010, episode of "Top Gear", though this was likely just a promotional appearance for the film "Knight and Day". ]]

The article currently states, based on a rather inaccurate BBC article, that Cruise was introduced to Scientology in 1990. This is incorrect, as shown at this link: http://home.snafu.de/tilman/faq-you/celeb.txt, which lists several sources indicating 1986 and 1987. Cruise himself has stated in an interview with People that he took his first course in 1986. He is listed in church publications that he completed the Student Hat course in 1989. Given the variety of years given, we should probably avoid stating an exact year, or simply give a general statement that he began Scientology services in the mid-to-late 1980s. Thoughts? Laval ( talk) 15:31, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
Fat&Happy apparently has a problem with my addition of "social betterment programs" to the article, calling this POV. Well, what did you have in mind? Call them "charities" instead? Philanthropic organizations? Cruise refers to these church charities as "social betterment programs" which is what the church calls them. Critics call them "front groups" -- that's not POV? How about WP:BLP? I'd love to hear what alternative description the editor would prefer that would be more NPOV than "social betterment programs". Calling them scams, front groups, money laundering schemes, scams, etc doesn't count. Laval ( talk) 01:39, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
Why is Tom Cruise allowed "Religion" in his info box? I think his Wiki page is actually the first actor/actress page I've seen where Religion is even mentioned. Just because he is very outspoken about his following is not a reason to put it in his info box. Even Mimi Rogers does not have it, and she introduced him to it!
It doesn't seem fair, and I have removed for fairness and to stay with standards. I'm not even debating the fact that Scientology is not recognized as a religion in many parts of the world. Let's give some examples to support my point. Robia Lamorte is a actress turned born-again Christian preacher (for lack of a better word). Her main career is now religion-based, but her religion is not put in the info box. Lil Wayne has proclaimed several times, during award shows and interviews, that he believes in God, but his religion is not stated in his info box. Ben Stiller has stated he is a non-practising Jew, but secular Jew is not stated as his religion in his info box. Woody Allen has stated he is an atheist, but that does not appear as his religion in his info box. I could go on and on with endless number of examples, but I think my point is made. There are standards to Wikipedia. Tom Cruise's main occupation is an actor, not a religious figure. Nitroblu ( talk) 15:47, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

It's been requested several times before in the archive that the article should mention his height somehow. AFAIK, it's also a pretty big topic in tabloids or the media in general when it comes to Cruise. I suppose we could handle it similarly to his ligitation when he sued people over calling him gay. For instance, we could refer to recurring reports suggesting that Cruise usually has explicit terms in his acting contracts forbidding his being, uh, "vertically challenged" being shown visibly on-camera, and mandating to conceal it instead such as by only casting people shorter than him, or not showing his feet so he can stand on a small pedestal or whatever to appear taller next to the other people in the shot. -- 84.180.255.151 ( talk) 14:08, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

The last person to edit this page obviously changed details of the page to be profane, crude, and potentially libelous. They changed actor Tom Cruise's name to "Tom Cruise Has Herpes" and "Thomas Cruise CumIV". And then apparently made it so further edits weren't allowed.

It says in the scientology section that Cruise became involved through his wife Mimi Rogers in 1990, but that can't be right, because the Mimi Rogers pages says they were divorced by then so it must have been earlier.

The article refers to Cruise as having been 'born Thomas Cruise Mapother IV', implying this is no longer his name. Is there any evidence to suggest he has actually changed his name to 'Tom Cruise', rather than this being his stage name?

Note: A brief archive search for "occupation" did not bring this exact point up as a past discussion.
The body text's wikitext (after the Infobox) contains a hidden comment:
'''Tom Cruise''' (born '''Thomas Cruise Mapother IV'''; July 3, 1962) is an American actor and filmmaker. <!-- DO NOT ADD SCIENTOLOGIST AS IT IS A RELIGION AND NOT AN OCCUPATION -->Cruise has been nominated for three [[Academy Awards]] and has won three [[Golden Globe Award]]s.
I agree that describing Cruise as "an American actor, filmmaker and Scientologist" would be unusual. However, he is famous as a Scientologist and was even given an award from the organization for promoting it; therefore, it is notable enough that it should be in the first sentence and not completely pushed to the bottom of the intro as it is now.
Better phrasing would be, "an American actor and filmmaker who is also famous for being a staunch advocate of Scientology." That shows the notability of the inclusion, and I think it is a neutral summary.
So, I'm editing it as follows:
'''Tom Cruise''' (born '''Thomas Cruise Mapother IV'''; July 3, 1962) is an American actor and filmmaker.<!-- Be careful to NOT treat Scientology as an occupation. See the talk page section: Scientology not in first sentence because it's "not an occupation." --> Cruise has been nominated for three [[Academy Awards]] and has won three [[Golden Globe Award]]s.
I hope this answers all concerns. Thanks, — Geekdiva ( talk) 09:11, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
I can't edit this page, but 'breach' is spelled wrong in the third paragraph of the 'Scientology' section: 'After YouTube investigated this claim, they found that the video did not breech copyright law, as it is covered by the fair use clause.'
"Cruse's [sic.] advocacy of Scientology" - obvious typo.

This is a common misconception and it's baffling, as anybody can just look at the video. He did not jump "up and down", he simply jumped up on the couch and stood there. This is in reference to Oprah telling him a bit earlier that she liked how he stood on a chair on one previous occasion.

Considering that the TomKat's article was merged with this (Tom Cruise) article's section on relationships and thus making it null, I have linked the term (TomKat) to the Supercouples' section on celebrities. Without it, there is no reference to the meaning of the terminology; the merge did not bring the link to the Supercouples' article. My change is not unique. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's pages did the same with the term " brangelina," and Ben Affleck's page did the same with " bennifer" ( Jennifer Lopez's page edited the lines in a way that made the link unnecessary).

Tom’s height should read Unknown. There is no reputable source for his actual height. The sources available often use info from his and the studio’s publicists, which is often unreliable. Other sources attempt to compare his height against his costars, which is also unreliable due to camera angles, heel height, whether either person is wearing lifts, etc.

Themes of Book Scavenger
Book Scavenger is written by Jennifer Chambliss Bertman the genre of this book is adventure and many more. This book is mainly about a girl named Emily that is determined to finish a book game for her idol with the help of many people. Emily loves playing it around the world. Through all this Emily has had determination and she’s been pressured. She keeps moving forward through all obstacles. Through out all this Emily has been determined through ups and downs not once has she ever give up on her passion. For example, Emily found the person who stole her book and even when she thought she would never get it back she stayed determined and got it. This also happened with a man named Babbage, he stole Emily’s book right before her eyes and never saw it again. She was determined to get it back once again, but even though she didn’t get it back she stayed confident and never put on a bad face. “you do have it!” she cried. Forgetting everything else, Emily ran and lifted the book from the island.” (Bertman pg.96). Also, Emily was pressured by her parents that she should make friends, but then she pushed all the pressure away and make friends on her own, her best friend James. Even the mom of James was pressuring him to friends to and James did the same thing as Emily. It worked with not having pressure. “I’ll even let you have the Gold Bug as a keepsake. You wouldn’t be interested in the prize anyway. Its nothing a kid would like-no toys or candy!” You know what the prize is?” Emily asked. (Bertman pg.96). She is trying to tell us that you should not trust things that look suspicious. Emily has been pressured up and down, but nothing has changed her mind about giving up. For example, James has been pressured as Maddie try’s to win a competition he ends up winning because James didn’t give up. Maddie, ever since she was in the school she bothered James, he stayed strong through it all. “Don’t let her get to you,” Emily said as they left a smirking Maddie behind.” (Bertman pg.175). Also, a dog ran out of a boutique and everyone was being pressured by everyone to catch the dog. Emily and James didn’t pay attention to the pressure and caught the dog. It states that they were panting and sweating because of all this. “a dog in the door way of a clothing boutique yipped “this way!” (Bertman pg.210). The author wants us to know that whenever you feel pressured just stay clam and the answer will come. In conclusion, in Book Scavenger Emily learns that no matter what she should always stay determined no matter what. Jennifer Chambliss Bertman wants us to understand that when your going through a tough situation just think, what would Emily do? Be that person. People around you are always going to pressure you, but you can over come it.

There appears to be no mention of the 1981 film Taps in which Cruise had a semi-major role. George C. Scott, Tim Hutton, and Ronny Cox, also starred. It did much better at the box office than his other 81 film. Clemmohb ( talk) 07:18, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

Could we have a section on the nicknames of Tom Cruise, such as Tom Cruise-Missile, Tomcat, Tomahawk, Tom Cruise-Cruz, the Last Calamari? Perhaps as part of a jokes section - cf Chuck Norris - which includes trivia such as how long he can hold his breath under water, the fact that he turned down the role of Spiderman, and the fact that...

The cited source
[1] for the last sentence of this section doesn't support the sentence.
That last sentence currently reads: "Cruise's ex-girlfriend Nazanin Boniadi later compared the Church's auditioning of women to date Cruise and experiences with him to "white slavery."[123]". But in the report quoted within the cited source there is just: "[redacted] feels she was a victim of white slavery because she traveled across state lines under false pretenses". There is no explicit comparison of the auditioning etc. to white slavery. Implicitly it is a possibility, but it seems at least equally possible that it refers to the trafficking involved around the RPF after the relationship was ended.
Therefore - unless of course, a supporting citation can be added - the "compared to white slavery"-part should be omitted, reworded or replaced (e.g. "... later testified on the Church auditioning her to date Cruise and the abuse she experienced."). 178.5.118.112 ( talk) 20:50, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

I was just reading this article when I came across the section about Tom Cruise’s split with Paramount. The split happened in 2006, but Tom has continued to make movies with Paramount since then.

We seem to have a debate about the first sentence of the lede:
Prior version: Thomas Cruise Mapother IV (born July 3, 1962), better known by his stage name Tom Cruise, is an American actor and producer.

To my mind, removing "better known by his stage name Tom Cruise" is not an improvement. The article is entitled 'Tom Cruise'. Everyone everywhere refers to him thus. It is his stage name. Omitting the name of the article subject from the lede here seems to achieve nothing beyond possibly making the reader wonder whether they have got the wrong article. If there is a legitimate reason to do so, I'd like to see a proper explanation as to what it is. AndyTheGrump ( talk) 22:03, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
For people who are best known by a pseudonym, the legal name should usually appear first in the article, followed closely by the pseudonym, illustrates what it considers appropriate in an example which almost directly parallels this one:

'professionally known as', would work, not that the original wasn't OK. - FlightTime ( open channel) 01:21, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
Should be spelled "spaceflight", in : "Cruise is sponsored for an upcoming spacelight mission"
"he aspired to become a Franciscan priest before being expelled from the seminary for drinking and becoming interested in acting." The way this is written makes it sound like Cruise was expelled for drinking AND becoming interested in acting. Rather improbable, don't you think - being expelled for becoming interested in acting? I'm making the assumption that the interest in acting began as a consequence of being expelled and was going to do an edit to that effect. Decided the original editor would have more immediate knowledge and, thus, be better qualified to react to this situation if truly needed. After all, stranger things have happened.

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Tom Cruise's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "tom":
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT ⚡ 22:04, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

What is with the "career" and "married life" sections at the start of the page below the menu? There is no information given which isn't shared in the more detailed sections "Acting career" (1980s, 1990s, 2000s, etc.) and "Personal life" (Marriages and relationships, Scientology, Controversies, etc.) below. They also make for an unusual layout of the page which currently is career, personal life, career (again), production, personal life (again). The two shorter paragraphs "career" and "married life" should be deleted and, in case there is additional info which is missing from the rest of the article, should be added to the corresponding already existing more detailed paragraphs.
