Danni's presence on the Net predates the Web. I believe she was the first nude model ever to post pictures of herself on the
Usenet alt.binaries
newsgroups. But I don't remember the exact timeframe, so can't authoritatively update the article. Anyone? -

Ms. Ashe did upload to Newsgroups but cannot be claimed as the very first (though I know of no one who predates her). She ran ads in magazines before getting online and was part of a community of early web adopters linked to the adult industry. 87.194.2.51
I don't think this article qualifies as a stub anymore. Should the template be removed? LeoDV 09:30, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Because of the (painted) nudity, for this article I would suggest that the image of the painted Danni Ashe should be linked rather than embedded (or replaced with a non-nude image) in accord with this tentative Wikipedia guideline: "it may be preferable not to embed possibly offensive images in articles, but rather use a [[media:image name]] link with an appropriate warning. On the other hand, if the page title already tells the reader what to expect (e.g. Erotic art in Pompeii), such a warning may be unnecessary." Though she is a porn star, not everyone knows who she is before they open the article. If the title were "Danni Ashe (pornography)" or something of the kind, that would be different. Objections? -- Flex 21:33, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
Good work! -- Flex 14:01, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
That is absolutely amazing.

Your accusations regarding her character are based on what and useful how? As for being 'self-proclaimed' she was given the award by Guiness World Records in London. It's well documented - most famously by Howard Stern. 87.194.2.51
I removed the language at the beginning referring to Danni's site as "softcore" and removed this statement:
"Her success was particularly noteworthy as Ashe’s website was built on softcore adult material without images of men or explicit sexual activity."
The part about there being no images of men is true, but there's plenty of explicit sexual activity between women as even a cursory tour of the preview pages of her site would reveal. (In fact, the following statement is taken directly from the tour page: "Danni.com's original video features include some of the best- known stars, the hottest newcomers in explicit sexual action!")
Its true that there are now some definitions of "softcore" that define it as anything other than material showing penetration by men, but that's not common useage of the term. Iamcuriousblue 21:52, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Softcore - according to the adult industry - means no penetration, no insertion and no sex. By that count Danni Ashe has only ever been softcore. Her site as of 2006 is not being run by her and should not be used to make assumptions about her career. 87.194.2.51
I klicked the Danni.de side and I could not identify it as a (german) Fansite. In Fact there is nothing about Danni and it is only a site gaining profit of Danni's Name. I think the link should be erased! It's not even german! It is only ad.
As an ex-colleague of Ms. Ashe you should be aware her personal security rests on her identity being obscured. Though perfect security's impossible highlighting the fruits of careful research into her identity is a deliberate attempt to disclose information she makes an effort to obscure. Wikipedia should take the responsible view unless there's a clearly demonstrated benefit to the public which outweighs the ease with which personal information can be exploited by Dannis numerous obsessive fans. 87.194.2.51
Danni Ashe is a stagename, it's dangerous for nude models and performers to be public about their personal information. 87.194.2.51
It's not wikipedia's job to be responsible. If her name can be verified then it belongs in the article. Someone should find out her name so we can get it on here.
I corrected the reference to Penthouse's buying of Danni.com. The article had implied that Danni herself sold the company. But the souce in question [1] clearly implies that, as of 2006, Danni hasn't been involved in the company at all "for a couple years", and it nowhere implies that Danni herself sold it or made any money from the transaction. The fact is that she had already sold it in 2004. TruthPolice 21:26, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Can someone please point to a reliable source for Danni's "real name"? Tabercil 23:59, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
For the record, IMDb is a perfectly acceptable AND reliable source for basic info like names, birthdates, etc. Its fact checked by paid staff before its posted live, its the rumor and trivia garbage that is completely suspect and User posted. --

Wikipedia is incorrect when it lists the birth name of this individual as "Leah Manzari". That is her married name (to Bert Manzari). I have done some research, but have never been able to determine her maiden/birth (last) name and I don't know that she has ever revealed it. Her real (current) name is no big secret.

I agree with it being labeled as more of an advertisement. Seems to belittle Cindy Margolis, kind of one-sided view of the subject. Should have more neutrality.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Farlowab ( talk • contribs) 18:02, October 31, 2006 (UTC) |

Hi All - I'm trying to update the lawsuit section which is pretty out of date. I'm new and am trying to learn the right way to post. See below for what I've tried so far. Thanks!
I made my first edit recently and shortly thereafter my edit was undone. These notes were indicated - OR, primary sourcing. I've done some preliminary reading, trying to get up to speed, but I'm wondering if a little one to one might be a better way for me learn the right way to successfully make my addition to the page.
The info in the lawsuit section of the Danni Ashe page is out of date and I would like to update it. Can you see my post or should I paste it in here? Thanks for your help! Coquinet ( talk) 23:32, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
- Coquinet Hi! Your edits were reverted on the basis of primary sourcing but also because statements like this:
Though neither party has released a public statement, court documents show the case was closed January 30, 2017. This suggests an out of court settlement, one agreeable to Ms. Manzari.are not encyclopedic and require reliable sources, especially involving legal matters. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 23:37, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
So what I'm really asking is how do we update a page when the only source of info is primary, as in the court documents that tell us the current situation? Thanks for any help, and if possible please respond in plain english (it's hard for newbies like me to understand the jargon (primary source, not encyclopedic) you experts are so familiar with)
