"'Sunshine Girl'" refers to pinup girls featured in most of the daily newspapers of the Sun chain in Canada. The feature started when the "Toronto Sun'', which was launched in 1971, and was adapted from British tabloids with similar featured women. The SUNshine girls have become an iconic part of Canadian newspaper history. Typically featured on page 3 of the Sun in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, the Sunshine Girl is now usually found on the back page of the sports section. The photos usually featured a clothed or swimsuited female model, actress, or athlete, as well as amateur models, and were generally tastefully done. Famous former SUNshine girls include: Amanda Coetzer (tennis star), Ann Rohmer (of ''Breakfast Television''), Trish Stratus (World Wrestling Entertainment WWE Diva), Stacy Keibler (WWE Diva and ''Dancing with the Stars (US TV series)" finalist). At least twice a year, the Sun Group produces and sells a calendar featuring a selection of Sunshine Girls. Typically, the Girls who are selected for the calendar are chosen by the public online and by a mail-in vote.

Spinoffs and Knockoffs

There was a "'Sunshine Boy'" feature in the Sun as well, but the picture was in black and white. This feature was discontinued in 2006.
"Sunshine Girl Magazine" is a men's magazine published from Miami, Florida. Sunshine Girl Magazine is sprung out of the Sun's annual Sunshine Girl calendar.

EkstraBladet has translated their article into English, so I updated the link. from: "Viste pædofil Muhamed" http://ekstrabladet.dk/VisArtikel.iasp?PageID=329877 to: http://ekstrabladet.dk/VisArtikel.iasp?PageID=334426 This article only cites partisan blogs and a tabloid, so rather unreliable sources. I tried to write it in a way that does not suggests that the allegations are true; yet it it very probably wise to wait until some serious media checks these allegations before doing anything with this article. 07:00, 5 February 2006 (UTC) :: There are some references to this in Wikipedia under 13:42, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
I have added 1 real source and 1 blogger source, so the documents the article references are verified as being in existence. So, I have removed the tag. The story needs great expansion and more credible sources; but I also have been wondering why there was such a delay in reaction and this may be part of the reason...inflammatory tabloid media? 14:07, 5 February 2006 (UTC) :: Difficult to sort out. The newspaper is apparently the worst sort of tabloid; on the other hand, these sort of tabloids actually do sometimes come up with an actual scoop (in a sea of non-sense). I am eager to see a counter-investigation on this matter by a "real" newspaper. 15:40, 5 February 2006 (UTC) :::Can a "blogger" really be a "reliable source"? I think that if its not a source that can be trusted and or verified, then it should not be a source. A blog , in my opinion is not a source because who knows if what is being said is true. Blogs are often a POV 90% of the time. 11:56, 6 February 2006 (UTC) ::::You are correct; there is a bit of a connundrum because the bloggers' sensationalism is actually part of the topic; so, if the story is to ever be published, perhaps the blogs could be given "external links"? I don't know how to handle this? But I think you are correct; a blog should NOT be a primary source. I'll remove it now. 12:40, 6 February 2006 (UTC) :::::I am not sure how to display it. I suppose an external link would work, but I am not sure. I think we should get more of an opinion on that first. 12:51, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
There is a 14:42, 6 February 2006 (UTC) ::::::EkstraBladet is indeed a tabloid with a nude girl on page 9. Never the less they have done a lot of footwork in this case. The story can no longer be doubted. BBC has apologized for airing the cartoons (and attributing them to JyllandsPosten although the apology is well hid away (you have to scroll down)

Info box?

I am wondering if this issue is deserving of it's own "info box" yet? 13:13, 4 February 2006 (UTC) :I think it is (assuming you mean the whole "Mohammed Cartoons" issue). -- 07:39, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
