Some things up with which shall not be put
Please do not convert english spellings to american. Policy here is to leave them they way they are. Cheers. Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 21:32, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

I have reverted your spelling changes to Serious Organised Crime Agency, back to the British standard, for a British topic. That is in accord with general Wikipedia policy, please see WP:ENGVAR. Studerby 22:41, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Uh... What?
You posted this: "Please stop. If you continue to blank pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Agtaz 00:31, 6 May 2007 (UTC) "


 * I have not "blanked pages". I don't what you are talking about. K1ng l0v3 01:36, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Gang
Honestly, I'd have to see it - if it's organized crime commited by gangs - then I suspect that'd be fine, but feel free to add one and we'll work from there. Sorry for the iffy response - if you have any other questions I'm usually a bit more helpful ... talk to you later. daniel folsom 23:29, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Dates
What's the source for all this info you're posting about the dates cartoons were created? Wahkeenah 23:56, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
 * You didn't answer my question. Where are the dates coming from? Are they on the cartoons themselves? Wahkeenah 23:58, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Using other wikipedia pages as a source is against the verifiability rules. Wahkeenah 00:05, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Because wikipedia is not an original source. It is subject to editing by anyone. Therefore it is not reliable. To put it another way, I could write an article about something and make up the information, and then write another article (under a different user id) citing the first article. Wahkeenah 00:07, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I found your user ID on several of the cartoon articles you re-edited today. I think Buccaneer Bunny was one of them. Mind you, I have not looked up which dates are right. I just wanted to know where you got the info. In the case I just mentioned, the Beck-Friedwald book says the film was released on May 8, 1948. That's a verifiable source. There's nothing in the book about the production and/or completion dates of the cartoon. Wahkeenah 00:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, a blue cover. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies (c) 1989. Buccaneer Bunny is covered on p.185. Wahkeenah 00:17, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ideally, it would be nice to get the exact release dates in the cartoons as well as the summary page(s). With proper citation, of course. That would take awhile, and that's one reason why I haven't done it. Wahkeenah 00:25, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I am not an admin. I would not run if nominated, and if elected I would not serve. Why do you ask? Wahkeenah 00:28, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I came on so strong. I was just envisioning having to do a bunch of reverts. Wahkeenah 00:53, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Two FACs I'd Like Help With
Hey, I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind going to two FACs for article I have brought up to FA-quality, IMO, recently. These are Voyage: Inspired by Jules Verne and Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None. I'd really appreciate any criticisms or support that you could provide for these two feature article candidates. Thanks. Paaerduag 02:41, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Greg Ford
I'd just like to thank you very much for correcting some of the information in the Greg Ford article I created. I truly appreciate it. — Cinemaniac (talk) 05:10, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Now that you mention: I know most of Greg Ford's films by memory (and I hope I'll be able to put a Filmography section in the article soon). But d'you know if Ford has published any books ? If he has, I haven't been able to pin them down on the Web.  By just listening to his audio commentaries, you can tell he admires the work of Tex Avery and Friz Freleng (the latter director is particularly more "ignored"—if that is the word—by some critics today).  It'd be interesting to actually read his takes on  the field.  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 05:29, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I don't, unfortunately. He doesn't give his date of birth in his DVD commentaries—then again, why would he?—and I know he doesn't have his own blog. Even a Google search hasn't proven very helpful.  There's always something... — Cinemaniac (talk) 05:55, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, when I first signed up for an account, it listed the benefits, one of which read: "The ability to start/create pages." I guessed it meant I could create a page without the permission of an admin.  I basically did the same for historian Michael Barrier during my unregistered days, believe it or not, any number of months ago.  During those days, Mike Barrier's Wikipedia page was a stub about the Star Trek actor, not the animation historian.  So I basically added as much info I knew about Barrier to that article (which, by the way, has since become a disambiguation page for the two separate articles).  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 21:24, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Wait. That doesn't mean the Greg Ford article is going to be deleted, does it? If it does, I had no idea I couldn't create a Wikipedia bio—however limited it may be—without admin. approval.  I guess I should've asked first, eh?  — Cinemaniac (talk) 21:55, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Whew! Much obliged.  That's a load off of my mind!  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 22:09, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I enjoy the cartoons of the Golden Age of American animation in general, but I am a particular afficienado for the Looney Tunes. I thought that would be apparent.  If it's not, just look at my contributions and the discussions on my talk page.  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 22:23, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I realised that, too. It's gonna take some time, too, to create more LT and MM pages—time that, unfortunately, I usually won't have.  But after New Year's I'll have more time to devote to the Wikipedia animation project, I sincerely hope.  — Cinemaniac (talk) 22:39, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, there already is one: WikiProject American Animation. You should consider joining; from the looks of your contribs, you'd be a valuable asset to the project.  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 22:42, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Congrats! Compared to other wiki projects, there aren't too many of us. :)  If  you yourself need any help, just drop me a line and I'll see what I can do.  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 00:43, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Looney Tunes on TV
Think that would be a good idea for a separate article. WAVY 10 Fan (talk) 16:04, 7 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Your proposal for such an article has produced a rather intense response. Click here for more detailed feedback from various fellow editors.  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 22:35, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

RE: More Looney Tunes Characters
Well, my exams are over now, so I'll be actively contributing again. What exactly do you suggest we do? I've heard of similar thoughts to create more LT character articles, but some other editors have said that such articles would A) be extremely short, or B) become saturated by speculation and fancruft. — Cinemaniac (talk) 04:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry. I didn't mean to discourage, and I hope that you didn't think I was trying to do so. I was simply communicating what other editors had said before.  That doesn't necessarily mean consensus was reached, and that certainly doesn't mean you should stop trying to do The Right Thing.  I think that we should still pursue giving these more obscure characters their own articles—just keeping these earlier advisings in mind. . .  —  Cinemaniac (talk) 04:39, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The discussion continued here. —  Cinemaniac (talk) 04:53, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Peer Revues
Happy New Year, Agtax! I thought I could ask for your help and advice. I've submitted two articles for peer review, and thought that you might like to critique them: If you have the time, it'd be great if you could look over those two articles and assess their flaws and weaknesses. Thanks, and, again, a Happy New Year to you! — Cinemaniac (talk •  contribs) 03:54, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Duck Soup. I've listed this article for peer review because, even though I and other editors have contributed much information and references, I'm certain that there are other aspects of this classic film that have yet to be covered. I'd like to hear feedback from you, so that I can get help in improving this (and other Marx Brothers films) quality.
 * Princess Leia Organa. I've listed this article for peer review because it right now seems oddly cluttered and, despite a lot of references as of now, lacks reliable source citations. Although I've already requested another peer review, as long as it helps the articles get better, I've got the time. Comments and suggestions are appreciated, as this should help me in expanding other Star Wars-centric articles.

Charlie Dog abruptly merged with Porky Pig
Just minutes ago, MrJanitor1 merged the Charlie Dog article with the Porky Pig article, without providing any reason whatsoever on the talk page or in his edit summaries. I notified him of this, and informed the user that it would probably be best to ask for consensus before making such a move. I then went ahead and reverted most of the edits pertaining to this redirect, but found myself hitting the wall when trying to restore the Charlie Dog page. I've asked Ted Watson about this, but he's not exactly sure how to do it, either. D'you think you could help us out with this? Thanks! — Cinemaniac (talk •  contribs) 22:35, 2 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Never mind. It took the use of some major brain cells, but I think I've been able to restore the Charlie Dog article (by way of copying the original text from the Porky Pig article's history and then pasting it back on the Charlie Dog page). It looks like that worked.  Sorry to bother you like that. — Cinemaniac (talk  •  contribs) 23:00, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Trivia
Hi, just noticed your comments on dissolve's page. Regarding trivia - the idea is to pick out the wheat from the chaff. E.g in Colors (film):


 * The film's theme song of the same title was performed by Ice T.
 * The producers hired real gang members. Some were shot during the film's production.

These two facts should be incorporated in the main text in a more meaningful context.


 * In April 1987, during the film's production, Sean Penn was arrested for punching a photographer who was taking pictures of him without permission. He served a month in jail for this assault.

This is more to do with Sean Penn and should be put in his article if not already noted.


 * A mural of Jesus Christ on a wall in one scene can also be seen in a scene from Falling Down, a 1993 film in which Duvall appears as an experienced police officer.

This isn't such a big deal is it? It's an obscure fact that doesn't carry much meaning as it stands. (However, say this was a running theme in an actor's or director's work then that would be more meaningful and should be re-stated as such)

Think of wikipedia as a way to present the most important and interesting facts. I for one don't mind trivia but the truth is the most interesting parts should be in the article and the lesser ones discarded. This is my just opinion, so if you disagree feel free to keep the info. Sorry for the impromptu essay! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 21:06, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Childfree dispute?
I see that you have twice reverted the edits which removed your text regarding the "selfishness issue". You reverted by saying "It is true." -- but this isn't sufficient. As you know, content needs to be verifiable, and the text has been tagged as needing references. If you can't give references PROVING that this is true, it isn't true (in the context of Wikipedia) and will likely continue to be deleted. If you don't have references at the moment, I hope you'll consider removing the text (to avoid these edit disputes) until you can supply them. Just some friendly advice. :-) Leena (talk) 03:21, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Interracial Marriage
Is there a reason why you're changing names of racial groups? Agtax 18:27, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

- yes, to make them more ethnically consistent. In fact, I'm not "changing" the names, I'm using the scientifically more accurate monikers.--Kontar (talk) 18:34, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

-I would agree in using Caucasian, but all ethnic groups are derived from a region which environmentally "creates" their ethnic differences. The Caucus mountains is not the only area which has produced people who would be considered to have their characteristics. In general, European peoples are similar in ethnic physical traits as well as cultural and regional association. Caucasian is simply not inclusive enough. Also, "Caucasian" is inconsistent with "Asian," "African," and "Native American." If you use "White people" you would have to use "Yellow people" to describe those of Asian descent to remain consistent, which is of course not physically accurate, regionally relevant, or even culturally descriptive. --Kontar (talk) 18:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

-Unfortunately, no- as the data has not been collected yet. Also, as a general problem with the article, the US statistics are not representative of a worldwide view of the subject. A broader collection of data is needed to increase the accuracy of the article. --Kontar (talk) 04:21, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

-As I mentioned above, "white" is not a scientific classification. Nor is it consistent with the other descriptions (ie. Asian). The article is about ethnic relations and classification. "White" is a color, not a geographic ethnicity. Encyclopedic entries are meant to be accurate, not popular. --Kontar (talk) 04:32, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

-I agree. The problem there is that all of the groups you have mentioned are considered anthropologically European in origin. It's a sticky subject, I admit, but South Africans and Australians are not indigenous groups to those regions. They are anthropologically "foriegn ethnicities" to those regions and migrant cultural groups from Europe. --Kontar (talk) 04:40, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

-That is correct as well. Russians are considered part of Eurasia, with the western portion and those of lighter skin and rounder eyes to be of "European origin", where those who are darker with narrower eye folds to be of mixed Asian descent. Eastern Russians are more difficult to anthropologically classify due to their regional relations with Western Asians. Again, this is a fault of the article in not covering this issue. In general, Russians are considered to be "of European descent", even though they are CLEARLY not located in Western Europe. Western Russia is geographically considered part of Eastern Europe. It is the same issue as Australians and South Africans. --Kontar (talk) 04:53, 6 August 2008 (UTC)


 * "Caucasian" is discredited in the field of biological anthropology, as are the sister terms "Negroid" for people of African descent and "Mongoloid" for people of Asian descent. If you use Caucasian, you need to use Negroid and Mongoloid for consistency. Sound silly? Of course it does. Caucasian "sounds better" only because a few people still use it in the US, but again, it is a scientifically erroneous term. --Kontar (talk) 05:14, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Aurora Snow
The pic is okay but somewhere around here there is a guideline/policy that says that nude images should be limited to articles where a casual user could expect to find them. For example, articles like breast, penis, or buttocks are expected to have nude images. The title "Aurora Snow" doesn't hold that same expectation. I know Wikipedia isn't censored, believe me I know, but nude images of people are frowned upon. Dismas |(talk) 06:49, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I must leap to the defense of my sometime contradictory correspondent, Mr. or Ms. Agtaz. I feel you do him or her a disservice by referring to him or her as a "vandal." I have often reverted the edits of Agtaz myself because I feel that they were made either (1) in haste or (2) in ignorance, but I don't believe he or she ever made any edits for the purpose of vandalism. I think Agtaz honestly felt he or she was improving the encyclopedia, not damaging it. Agtaz's problem is that he (or she) has never learned to do on-line research (with accompanying in-line sources) that would really improve our work here. Agtaz has much to learn but labeling him or her as a vandal is not he way to help. Just my opinion, and in friendship, I am, yours sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 05:00, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia Loves Art
First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia Loves Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there!  howcheng  {chat} 23:11, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
