Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from The Wizard of Oz (1939 film). Please be more careful when editing articles and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. a kendall  08:21, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thanks, and happy editing. --Oscarthecat 08:22, 19 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Somehow your false claim that The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a fable was retained for some time on The Wizard of Oz (1939 film). Please do not make this change again.  If you read the fable page and have any familiarity with what Baum wrote, you will see that you're claim of the book as a "fable" ignores all definitions. --Scottandrewhutchins 14:18, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Winonaryderedwardscisorhands.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Winonaryderedwardscisorhands.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 13:10, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Your edits to The Ice Storm
I have reverted your additions to the plot on this article for several reasons, the main one being that you copy-and-pasted it from the film's article page. That is both plagiarism and incorrect; the book does differ from the novel in many respects, and so much of what you added was factually incorrect. Please be more careful in your edits in the future. I also second what the user above stated in that it would be helpful for you to include edit summaries in the future. Thank you. María ( habla con migo ) 14:19, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

The Lovely Bones
I have become the latest person to revert some edits of yours, it seems. In this case, I removed the list of film credits you appended to Peter Jackson's name since that practice, while common in film and entertainment magazines, is not how we do things here. I also changed "production" to "preproduction" in the intro since a movie can only be considered in production when it has been cast and cameras are rolling, neither of which are true yet in this instance.
