Grand Theft Parsons
Hi.

Hi. Your edits to my annotations on the Grand Theft Parsons page might be viewed as giving a somewhat one-sided view of the critics responses to the film. I think that it is my fault for not providing links to the reviews I added for balance, but I am not great with the dark arts and accept full responsibility for not editing properly. Sorry.

The Sunday Times article quoted is here: http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/article459142.ece

The Time Out review is here: http://www.timeout.com/film/reviews/70479/grand-theft-parsons.html

The well-respected Film Thread blog gives it four stars and says it is '...a rock’n'roll road movie like no other'. (http://www.filmthreat.com/reviews/5384/)

The Daily Mirror (one of Britain's biggest-selling newspapers) calls it; 'a truly funny film right out of the top drawer." (http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv-entertainment/film/film-reviews/tm_objectid=14066150&method=full&siteid=115875&headline=grand-theft-parsons-name_page.html)

The Radio Times, Britain's most-popular weekly publication says 'Wittily scripted and lovingly directed, the film skilfully balances irreverence and sentiment. With a strong soundtrack providing additional flavour, it's a full-bodied tribute to human loyalty that's destined for cult status.' (http://www.radiotimes.com/servlet_film/com.icl.beeb.rtfilms.client.simpleSearchServlet?frn=42171&searchTypeSelect=5)

I didn't want to just undo your edit, because as the writer of the film I do have a subjective view and wanted to explain my reasoning. The current Wikipedia page is very negative about the film and my original edit was designed to balance that, rather than replace it, which is why I didn't alter or remove the bad reviews which made up the original 'reaction' section - although I note you added another bad review. Would it be pushy of me to ask you to look again at your edit and perhaps reflect the view that this was a film which had both positive and negative reaction from reviewers?

Many thanks for taking the time to read this.

 * Hi there! Thanks for all of these links. Believe it or not, I'm actually a big fan of your film and am currently working on an article/review about it for my blog. My actual intention was to include reviews from all the mainstream periodicals which, unfortunately, weren't too positive but the ones you've included should balance 'em out. Let me work on it.--J.D.

Thank you very much! If you need to reach me for your article, I am on jeremy@bigbamboo.biz and happy to give you any background you might need. Best wishes, Jeremy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.155.0.190 (talk) 11:14, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

"Chewed out"
Hi J.D.,

I see you introduced the term "chewed out" to The Usual Suspects ages ago. I've never heard that term... does it mean "scolded" or something like that? Maybe you could replace it with a more well-known term.

Cheers, Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) 14:15, 4 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Hey Adrian,


 * Yes, it does in fact mean "scolded" but usually in a very angry way. You're right to point this out, it sounds a little too casual. I'll fix it. Thanks for spotting it!--J.D. (talk) 14:42, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Karanacs (talk) 03:21, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Fear&LoathingSoundtrack.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Fear&LoathingSoundtrack.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content.

Main page appearance: Zodiac (film)
This is a note to let the main editors of Zodiac (film) know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on April 5, 2012. You can view the TFA blurb at Today's featured article/April 5, 2012. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director or his delegate, or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Zodiac is a 2007 American mystery-thriller film directed by David Fincher and based on Robert Graysmith's non-fiction book of the same name. The Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. joint production stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo, and Robert Downey, Jr. Zodiac tells the story of the hunt for a notorious serial killer known as "Zodiac" who killed in and around the San Francisco Bay Area during the late 1960s and early 1970s, leaving several victims in his wake and taunting police with letters and ciphers mailed to newspapers. The case remains one of San Francisco's most infamous unsolved crimes. Fincher, screenwriter James Vanderbilt, and producer Brad Fischer spent 18 months conducting their own investigation and research into the Zodiac murders. During filming, Fincher employed the digital Thomson Viper Filmstream camera to shoot the film. Contrary to popular belief, Zodiac was not shot entirely digitally; traditional high-speed film cameras were used for slow-motion murder sequences. Reviews for the film were highly positive; however, it did not perform strongly at the North American box office. It performed better in other parts of the world, earning $84 million, with a budget of $65 million spent on its production. (more...) UcuchaBot (talk) 00:02, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

New 10,000 Challenge for Canada
Hi, WikiProject Canada/The 10,000 Challenge is up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge for the UK which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:SkycaptainCDcover.jpg


The file File:SkycaptainCDcover.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern:
 * Non-free conver art being used in a decortive manner in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Non-free cover art is allowed to be used on Wikipedia, but generally only in stand-alone articles about the work in question as explained in WP:NFC. The use of soundtrack covers in moving articles is also highly discouraged per WP:FILMSCORE because the context required by WP:NFCC is almost always lacking. There's nothing to indicate that this is an exception and simply wanting to "show" the cover art is not sufficient justifiction for non-free use.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:02, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Snakeprison.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Snakeprison.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Proposed deletion of File:Wildatcannes.jpg


The file File:Wildatcannes.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "WP:DECORATIVE non-free use in Wild at Heart (film) which fails WP:NFCC. Readers don't need to see a non-free screenshot of Lynch and the actors of the film standing on stage after receiving the Palme d'or to understand that the film received the award. Moreover, there's no sourced critical commentary in the relevant section related to the screenshot itself that requires that it be seen by the reader; so, omitting the screenshot isn't going to be detrimental to the reader's understanding of the 'Release' section."

Hi, I see you haven't been active on Wikipedia in over a decade, but I'm looking for clarification on the Globe and Mail review you added to The Hitcher (1986 film) (see Talk:The Hitcher (1986 film), section "Critics"), and I thought I might as well try dropping you a line to ask if you could help.
