A Devilish Homicide
Hi, PC78. Nice start on A Devilish Homicide! One thing-- I notice you've used a DVD cover in the infobox. I like to use original posters if I can find them. Not only for historical accuracy, but because I like to see the advertising and artwork from the older eras. I haven't found a really good image for this film, but did find THIS black & white copy of the poster. I hope you won't mind if I put that in the Infobox, and move your DVD image down to a new "Availability" section which describes the DVD release? Cheers, and happy editing! Dekkappai (talk) 18:39, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks-- I'll add the poster as soon as I can start a section on the DVD release. I found the image by plugging in the hangeul at the search function in mydvdlist. I have this and another site listed as good places to search for images here: User:Dekkappai/Tools/Korea. I think I saw some color versions of the poster on the Web, but they all had ugly website URLs pasted on the top. Maybe we can go with this b&w image until a better one turns up. I've also been frustrated with the KMDB site. Not only is it very difficult to search, they taunt you with these nice images, but, apparently, you have to be a member to view them. I wouldn't even know how to go about joining-- Appletrees might know... Thanks for noticing the work on Kim Ki-young. I'm hoping to get it up to GA quality. This is very much only a beginning-- I stopped at Housemaid, and sketched in a little bit after that point. Even before Housemaid still needs lots of work. But it's a start.

Kim Ki-young
Hi, PC78. I'm about ready to submit Kim Ki-young for GA review. Have you been involved in that process? And if so, would you mind taking a look at the article for any major problems? Or maybe you know of someone who could give it a good preliminary going-over? One concern I have is that, for readability, I've grouped citations together at the ends of paragraphs. If this is a big problem, and they should instead be after the sentence, it won't take much time to fix that. Another is the article size/Filmography-- it's a bit long, but cutting out the filmography and putting it in a stand-alone article would probably fix that issue. Thanks in advance! Dekkappai (talk) 01:42, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for the help and the comments, PC78. I'll take them all into consideration polish the article some more, and submit it later today. Regards. Dekkappai (talk) 17:23, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

AfD for Melissa Pastore Scott
Hi there. I wanted to let you know that I deleted the very first sentence of your comment in the AfD discussion concerning the subject based on WP:BLP concerns. There was a prior AfD based in large part on that exact issue here, and whether there were reliable sources to make such a claim. While I think that little harm is done since the allegation is all over the net (and if I were inclined to bet I would suspect it's true) if it turns out it's not true it's probably libel. For this reason I thought it best to strike the statement. I am very, very sorry to meddle with your comment, and would not do so under any other circumstances. If you choose to revert it, I won't change it again, although I probably would mention it at the BLP noticeboard to see if I'm overreacting. Thanks Xymmax (talk) 17:50, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Spider Forest images
Hi, PC78. You seem to be better acquainted with image rules than I am. (I routinely save/replace poster images, but have taken a mostly hands-off attitude to other images in the film articles.) Anyway, there are several Fair Use images at Spider Forest which have been put up for Speedy Deletion. Are any of them justifiable/saveable, do you think? And if so, would you be able to add the justification for their inclusion? Thanks! Dekkappai (talk) 20:49, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * OK-- thanks. I think a screenshot or two will be useful if there is ever a proper article on the film-- with analysis, etc. I haven't edited much at the article, and wanted to do this, but it's too new a film for any sort of literature to have been built up around it yet. You should seek it out if you enjoy unusual, but extremely well-done films. It's very sad and very dark, but inspiring in a way, the way that any really well-done work of art is... I think it's one of the best new films I've seen in a long, long time. Dekkappai (talk) 00:56, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Right, I personally think it's one of the finest new Korean films... I can't put that in the article though :( I've seen one other film by Song Il-gon-- Feathers in the Wind-- and it's in a very different genre (romantic comedy), but a similar directorial style can be seen. It's another of my favorite new Korean films. Based on these two movies, I consider Song my favorite new Korean director. Before I started on the Kim Ki-young article, I'd thought about trying to get Spider Forest up to GA status. But a review of the literature on it just didn't turn up enough, so I gave up. The article as it stood looked like a big copy & paste job that would have to be redone from scratch. Maybe later... Dekkappai (talk) 00:17, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Lana Turner
As I appreciate your opinion on the Lana Turner page. I have a stern belief that as fellow editors, before we undo something that someone put effot into, one should out of courtesy place a discussion about a possible revert on a talk page. Now, I had every intention of going onto the Lana Turner page and trying to bring it to a point of taking it to WP:GA status. When going there, one would much rather have such a long thing as a filmography to be shown on a sub page. I do not agree with your revert and I would appreciate in the future that if we come across each other, that we will talk before just doing needless reverts. I am sure I would give you that common courtesy as well! Canyouhearmenow 04:09, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your response. One persons editing style may not always fit the likes of another editor. Hence, the reason we are all here. What you are unaware of is that I was contacted by an admin to go through Hollywood legends (bio) pages and cleanup and sub page filmography's, discography's and the likes in order to make the pages look more tidy. It really is of no importance of how long the page is on it's face. The important thing is to make the article as efficient as possible. That is my purpose and goal. I do fully understand what you are saying and far be it for me to state how you feel or what you look for in an article. But it is of no harm at all to put the filmography onto another page. I will tell you what I will do. I will leave it the way that it is and hopefully you will go in and spend some time on mainspace to edit the article and help bring it to a GA status. If you don't wish to do that and I have not seen anything done in 30 days, I will revert it back to the way I had it and I will continue on with my goal to get it to GA nomination. I think that is a fair split. Again, thank you Canyouhearmenow 17:08, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

WP Films Core list
A new round of discussion has been proposed in order to resolve some of the outstanding issues regarding the Core list. Since you've already participated on the talk page, I thought you might be interested in joining in! Happy editing, Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 05:51, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

South Korean films of 2007
Hi, good work on the article. You might want to indicate somewhere whether the list is comprehensive or not, ie. if there are still some films missing from it or not, so that others (like me) won't have to worry about it. And I'm asking you instead of checking myself since you probably know the answer already. If you based the article on the list from koreanfilm.org or kofic, it should be comprehensive for every theatrically released film. Thanks. - Bobet 14:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Strongarm
I know what he said. There was (and still isn't, as far as I'm aware) not a list of characters to merge this article into. When an AfD is closed as a merge, it is not the responsiblity of the closing administrator to perform the merge. Indeed, it would probably not be wise; the regular administrator is not going to be knowledgeable on most fictional characters, and therefore will not be able to do a good merge. It is up to editors who are familiar with the subject matter to perform merges. Since there was a consensus to merge, the article should be redirected. However, there was no place existing to merge to. Until such a time as the article is created, there is nowhere more appropriate to redirect to than the show itself. The redirect that I put on the article does not preclude creation of a List of Characters page, and a subsequent retargeting of the redirect. But until such time as the article is created, it needs to be redirected somewhere; I see nowhere more appropriate than the show page. seresin | wasn't he just...? 02:57, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

 * The forum link that you clicked on before took you to the wrong area, I changed that link to something more relevant, and the offical website is not referenced, though the English version is covered in hangul and not too helpful. DaronDierkes (talk) 06:40, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I moved the page to Incheon Inter City which is what the various promotional websites are calling it. I admit that it is still rather stubby.  I am not sure where in Incheon it is supposed to be, or I would redirect it there like you redirected the Yonsei/Songdo project page.  I assume that it must be in one of the three IFEZ areas, but it may be in Incheon proper.  I'm not sure. DaronDierkes (talk) 09:16, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Aaron Michael Lacey research
I've beed digging through Google and even emailed the National Capital/Chesapeake Bay branch of the NATAS. It's been a week now with no confirmation or denial of the award. When the organization that allegedly gave out the award can't answer the question, then it's a good sign that it never happened. Not only that, it's a regional Emmy. The competition is only other stations in the DC/Chesapeake Bay area. The show in question aired on only one station. DarkAudit (talk) 14:59, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Can you help me create Korea related infoboxes?
I've always been bothered to see more than one concise infobox used on articles because of size difference and format. Unfortunately, I don't know how to modify a temple to adapt for Korean names (hangul, Revised Romanization, and MC..). We have which seems to be a guide for me to create Korean relate templates, but I fail. Can you fix tags in ? --Appletrees (talk) 00:17, 21 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I tested the new template and it works fine.. However, it does not look good at this status, I think I try to adjust font size and format a bit.--Appletrees (talk) 15:52, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I would not insert the new template to articles right now but your second option seems too much letters gathered at the top. I think, The English and Hangul title are enough at the area. The Revised Romanization and McCune-Reischauer are just methods to transliterate/scribe Korean into English, so I think they can be hidden like the transliteration sections in Currently, building related articles with any template are very a few, and I think we can make integrated template for museums, buildings, museum venues. Or we can get more opinion on this. --Appletrees (talk) 17:47, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Much better, but if hangul name is shown in default, it would be good. Anyway, we need a consensus among our community to adopt the new template. I appreciate your work. --Appletrees (talk) 19:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

List of Parks
User:Appletrees made a nice article -List of parks in Seoul. I tried to make a nice template for it - Template:Seoul parks. It looks kind of terrible though. You are the template and navbox expert. Could you take a look at it? :o) There's a weird spacing issue going on and I don't know why.  I also wasn't sure how to link to the list article.  Should it be in the title or in a see also section?  Thanks.  DaronDierkes (talk) 06:47, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It looks much better. Thanks.  It seems we will be dividing the parks between government juristictions soon, if User:Appletrees finds the time.  I'm patient.  Thanks a lot. DaronDierkes (talk) 22:57, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

New Project
Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.

If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 06:52, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Duplicate article
When I searched, I found red links. I couldn't find him. So I (re)wrote an article on him. I don't know why I couldn't find the old article but you did. Maybe some-body moved the article to one of the alternative spellings with-out making the appropriate changes (link redirects, spelling redirects).

Any-way, maybe the two versions combined can be made into one that's better than either. Kdammers (talk) 09:30, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

It is rude of you?????
You revert was contested, so the sentence was not settled material in our mutual agreement. More than one person object to your revert, so saying to me "how rude of you" is really absurd. Be civil.--Appletrees (talk) 10:18, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It is so clear that you're not doing in good faith and civil toward not only YJS and otheres. So your preach does not make you warrant your action. I feel only sorry to see one good Korean editor leave. Although I nominated the site article for deletion, but people can make a mistake but you extend even more from him. I warned him not using sockpuppetry because that case was evident for protecting the site, but aside the case, you have been chasing down on his edit and assert that his edits are disruptive but I strongly disagree. I was only convinced that the 99..UK IP and one account named the site, not others you have accused. Your mention of rudeness and CIVIL card are also personal attacks against me. Those are not civil or from good faith. --Appletrees (talk) 14:37, 10 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Still, I do no understand why you obsess with him. I do know that you have been a good contributor to Korean film project as well as YJS's edits on general Korean related articles. He left Wikipedia because he was on the corner. I was not kind to him and I'm the one who nominated the article for deletion. However, he did only mention you and the other editor, not others because he felts you're the key point for his leaving. You think the blame is absurd, but I partially agree with his opinion. Besides, you had not edited Korean history or company related articles, so my assumption on your following is neither uncivil nor bad faith. That is an observation.--Appletrees (talk) 14:51, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * How rude of you is not personal attack? I do think that is a clearly not a good sign of good faith nor civil act to the contrary of your speaking. I've not been following you at all because all articles which you edited as you following YJ are on my watch list and I've noticed your behaviors. Besides, don't you even forget that I'm a member of Korean film task force? Every time, you edit Korean film articles or any Korean related articles on my watch list shows your activities unlike your following him. I suggest you to stop spread false blame on me. --Appletrees (talk) 15:08, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I am not convinced that your recent behaviors are good because that is your OWN POV and you're not a judge for accusing my own opinion. Stop making false blames on me. I don't think your activity is really fit to good faith and helpful for the article in which we're disputed. --Appletrees (talk) 15:12, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * You accusing of my being uncivil on you is that I strongly disagree and is judgmental of your own. So that is POV and my mentioning the truth is neither "uncivil" nor bad faith. Everyone believe that they're right and fair editor fors Wikipedia but when conflicts happen with others, people think that others are not right and wrong. People have their own POV and you have yours, so why don't you stop making false blames on me? As for the rudeness related comment of yours, I waited you came up with your opinion for some period of time, then you quickly "REVERTed" to your preferred version which was no sign of your willingness to comprise or discuss the matter with me and the other. The accusation of me being rude is also nothing but a personal attack. So please stop to accuse me further. As what you keep saying that you're right and I'm uncivil is really unhelpful for anything.--Appletrees (talk) 15:36, 10 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Not vandalism at all. He removed excessive WP:UNDUE descriptions on the article to balance. Your claim is solely based on the belief that you're right and YJ is a vandal having removed sourced contents. However, not every sourced materials are attached to Encyclopedia because Wikipedia is not a repository of collecting every news. --Appletrees (talk) 15:45, 10 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Edit summary does not lie, of course, and the record of your quick revert remains as well. If you think that discussion is really needed first, you should've not reverted to your preferred version so quickly. If you stop adding your accusation, I would do the same as you accordingly. S Why don't you STOP???? I can't stand your unwarranted accusation and regard the discussion is reducing my time to edit articles. It is clear that we disagree on our opinion, and civility/good faith. You can't say to me you're being right unless you have a good logic for your claim. --Appletrees (talk) 15:55, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * As I said before, I've seen him edit Korean related articles for a long time, over months. So I'm sure I can guess his intention that easily without his edit summaries. South Korea, Seoul, Samsunng or many important Korean related articles that he edited are on my watch list for a log time as well. So I think his removal of some contents is not vandalism unlike you accuse of.--Appletrees (talk) 16:00, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * You don't even realize that you keep attacking and accusing me of how rude and uncivil I am on which I strongly disagree. You also said that I'm following you that looks like a retaliation to my speaking of your "following YJ". I'm not the only one who thinks such. Your assumption on my defending for his edit on Samsung is unlikely a good faith. Let's face it. You and I have own POV and have defended ourselves respectively and disagree with the issues that each other brought up so far. So I consider this discussion is less healthy and unlikely being 'resolved" by us. So I keep asking you stop more accusation on which I ever would not agree --Appletrees (talk) 16:19, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I have not said that he has been "always" a good editor but "generally a good editor" to "Korean related articles" with my mention of "putting aside from the AFD incident". --Appletrees (talk) 16:24, 10 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I do not understand why you want to keep this discussion with me. You mention of my judgment on his edits on Samsung was made without his edit summaries makes me think of your accusation coming not from good faith. I do not still think that his removal of some contents is vandalism as you asserted. Your saying that I may intended to be uncivil against you is really not a good faith comment. You object to your behaviors to be called "following YJ" and claim that is just checking the alleged disruptions by him. But in my eyes, it looks as such due to the abovementioned reasons. So we just confirm that we would hardly ever agree with YJ's related matters. So why don't we stop talking the matter?--Appletrees (talk) 17:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Pusan International Film Festival
I made some changes to the Pusan Film Festival article. I'm not sure which direction to go with it though. I've separated the awards out. They could just as easily be placed under the years in question though. It could be possible to eventually make pages for each of the award categories as some of them have been around for a good ten years or more, which would be easier with the approach that I have started. I'm under the impression that this is in your interest area. I'll work on it off and on. Should it really be similar to the Cannes Film Festival or the Sundance Film Festival? I'm also a little confused about the wikipedia preference for Korean names. No hyphen, right? The article for Film festival doesn't mention the PIFF either, but I don't want to make any uncalled for edits. I'd be interested in your opinion. It might be better to respond on the PIFF talk page.

Ttangkkeut
Ttangkkeut or Ddangkkeut, I'm just curious as to how you get to know the location. Well, my writing ability is limited and actually I have not been to anywhere near to Jeollanam-do, so the place is pretty much unknown to me. I just attached several English sources, so if you care the stub or subject, you can expand it with the sources. And I think the Korean project needs some guide on to-do list and noticeboard.

 * Yeah, a matter of the conflict between the keepiest and deletioniests? Well, I think the noticeboard and the main page of the Korean project can be merged to integrate and to draw participants' attention at one place. I think the collapsible bar on the right is not easy to access as well. --Appletrees (talk) 18:50, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

marmite
Hey, just out of curiosity, can you briefly describe the taste of marmite? I ate some sandwich with spread very unique flavor and dark brown color. It is definitely not made of chocolate but has somewhat a sweat and savory taste. I heard it yeast wastes (from my friend) but I wonder whether it is marmite or not. (I want to buy it even if it would take an airmail order) You seem to be a British, so I'm writing this. Could you do me a favor? Thanks. :)--Appletrees (talk) 01:22, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I can't believe that you have not tried it though (it looks very popular in the country). Okay, I'm gonna ask the question to another Brit. Thanks anyway.--Appletrees (talk) 01:30, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello, members and friends of WP:LGBT! I'm not one to be writing newsletters, but I miss our cruise director, Miss Julie, and our project is drifting along with a few leaking plugs in the bottom of the boat. Hey, it happens. Every group we join goes through changes. If Wikipedia weren't so interesting it wouldn't also be so frustrating sometimes. And vice versa. More than one Wikiproject has tumbleweeds blowing through it, but this is one that can't afford to let that happen. Even if you pop in to the talk page of the project, you can let us know you're still around.

WP:LGBT's Role in HIV / AIDS articles
It wouldn't be a proper gay community without a li'l bit o' drama! That's right. If we aren't arguing about something, then we should be asking if we're still queer. Maybe that's for the best, since we know we're still kicking. Our most recent topic is how far the role of our project should go in dipping our toes into HIV/AIDS articles. The main AIDS article was delisted as a Featured Article last month, sadly. (Sending a swift kick to WP:Medicine.) A spirited discussion is available for your entertainment on the WP:LGBT talk page about just how much of HIV and AIDS should we take on. As ever, we'll take your opinions under advisement. We're going to have to, because it doesn't seem to have been settled.

Is Pride POV?
We have a pretty cool sidebar that identifies core LGBT articles. Its symbol is the iconic gay pride flag, much like other Wikiprojects have iconic symbols denoting the topic is a core subject in a series of articles. However, a question recently arose asking if the symbol itself is not neutral. Should a pride flag show up at the top of the article on Conversion therapy? How else would anyone know the article is about queer issues? Is there another symbol that is as widely recognized and that includes all our many splintered facets? At what point do we stop asking ourselves all these questions and just go have a mint julep on the verandah and stop caring?

Harvey Milk and Jim Jones
For the love of all that is holy, no Kool Aid jokes. However, an editor involved in pioneering San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk's article has included a section about the late supervisor's support of Jim Jones and the People's Temple. While it may be accurate, there is a Request for Comment regarding how much emphasis the section places on Milk's support in light of his overall political influence on the city, and indeed the rest of the United States. Milk's article is a sad one in more ways than one. It lacks the detail and heart that honors its subject. Anyone want to do a barter with me? I'll bring Harvey Milk to featured status (give me a month or two so I can read stuff), if you do something of equal value to WP:LGBT?? Make me an offer...

Queer Studies is offensive!
The established branch of study known as Queer studies was brought up as an category for deletion because an editor was offended by the use of "queer" in the title. It was overwhelmingly rejected mostly by the usernames I see here on our Wikiproject page. (A clue that I know you are out there, hiding...biding your time...) So, I wish I could congratulate you, but now I'm all confused by my sympathy for the editor who was offended. So, if you're reading this, Moni has a short memory and can't remember your username. Don't be put off by our demonstrative pushiness. Join us. We can always use involved editors.

Lambda Literary Awards
What can you do to help the project out? Be a wiki-fairy, on many levels. There are all kinds of articles that need help. Why, just this morning I removed those ugly wikify and cleanup tags from four articles at random. If you can put  around stuff, you can clean up articles. There's a list of articles that need attention at the top of the WP:LGBT talk page. Or you can start with the Lambda Literary Awards, where the goddess of my altar received a pioneering award, and was "reduced to rubble" by Katherine V. Forrest's wonderful speech. The 20th ceremony of the Lambda Literary Awards, which celebrates LGBT literature, took place in West Hollywood on May 29th. The page needs to be updated with the new winners, to be found on the official website.

Yeshayahu Leibowitz, Arthur C. Clarke and Bernard Montgomery
Why on earth would someone want to delete material about homosexuality? 'Tis truly a mystery. But these embattled articles have some random evil gnomes removing information that places these folks under our queer umbrella. Help us keep an eye out for the deletions. Take a peek at the articles, familiarize yourselves with the info, and be handy with the undo function in the article history. If tempers flare, take it to the Hall monitors and let them sort it out. Best solution is to make sure your sources are immaculate.

This month's Wiki stars
This is what I get for opening my big fat mouth and suggesting the newsletter should be revived. Here I am writing it. So, to pat self on back (*cough*) Mulholland Dr. became a featured article in May. This is A Good Thing since it is my personal declaration that there is no such thing as lesbian porn. I don't care what Benjiboi says about the video collection at goodvibes. Instead, we have hot women who connect on a deep, personal, soul-touching level, so this film should qualify as some of the skankiest porn available for lesbians. Plus, it's completely confusing and surreal! D'you think Laura Harring would care that the article is featured? I don't think so either... (Call me, Laura!)

Compulsive hoarding of templates
Once I saw a harrowing episode of Animal Planet's Animal Cops where this guy had, like, 250 cats in his house and it freaked me right out. I'm drawing a parallel between 250 cats and, well...three, really, templates in articles involving LGBT issues. Can we stick to one, maybe? In the aforementioned Harvey Milk's article there's a core LGBT template, a link to the LGBT portal, and a sidebar for LGBT rights. Jiminy! You'd think we weren't the folk to set industrial grey carpeting and track lighting in vogue. An LGBT footer was designed to link to articles of interest that aren't the aforementioned core articles. What do you think, can we have either an LGBT template for core articles, a footer for LGBT articles that are high profile but not core, or an LGBT rights template? As ever, anything's up for discussion on the WP:LGBT talk page.

The Violet Quill and magazines
Zigzig20s suggests we create an article on The Violet Quill, as it seems such a milestone in the advancement of gay/queer literature. Members of the Quill all have pages of their own (Edmund White, Christopher Cox, Robert Ferro, Michael Grumley, Andrew Holleran, Felice Picano, and George Whitmore). We need to find more info on the Quill per se to reference the page that we create. Perhaps Google Books - and libraries? - can help.

A number of magazines also need articles, perhaps most notably QW, LGNY, and Lesbian Feminist Liberation.

Mom's nagging for Pride Month
It's June, Pride month. Wear sunscreen, stay hydrated, get a designated driver, then go half-dressed in the streets find a girlfriend or boyfriend, or some homo who's standing there looking lonely and kiss 'em up real good. Remember, it all started 39 years ago when a bunch of drag queens just got fed the f*ck up by the cops raiding the bar and dragging them all out to the pokey again. Rock on, queens! Enjoy your celebrations. My town's is in October, and 200 people attend. I miss Denver.

Template:Fish market topics
Hello PC78. I see you put this template up for deletion, and it has now been unhelpfully deleted. I am the creator and maintainer of that template, and I had no idea this was happening. Can you please tell me what the standard procedure is for template deletions. Can you just go ahead and put templates up for deletion without the people who know about them being informed? --Geronimo20 (talk) 09:16, 10 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. The reason for two templates is that they have different functions. Fish market topics lets you focus on topics that are immediately close to the one you are looking at. Fishing industry is if you want to look at the whole field. --Geronimo20 (talk) 10:10, 10 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Just thinking aloud about what you said, I agree the Fishing industry template really shouldn't contain duplicates of the items in the side bars. If you look at Ship of the line, it also has a template at the bottom, though it just refers to the lead article for the sidebar, Ship of the line, and does not list all the subtopics in the template. What I'm thinking is that the fishing templates at the bottom should likewise list only the lead item on each of the sidebars. This means, in effect, that each item on the bottom template refers to a side bar. This considerably simplifies things. What are your thoughts on this? --Geronimo20 (talk) 11:42, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Question regarding the heritage of film actor Akihiko Hirata
You changed his category from "South Korean film actor" to "Japanese film actor." Yet, he was born in Korea. How do you justify the change you made? S. Dean Jameson 04:03, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Inline quotes
Inline quotes on war crimes topic. Will do, sir.

The academic material referenced is sound. Some of the content is already apparently on the Encyclopedia and so I cannot see why it is contentious.

Thank you. --Ex-oneatf (talk) 15:19, 15 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your comment of support on the AfD for Korean war crimes.


 * On the basis of my recent observation, one of the problems in dealing with an editor such as who also edited under the account  will be that they waste so much of others time in allegations, nominations and personal attacks that is is impossible to get to the core work of content production and references checking.


 * My fear is that this is their intent. Perhaps some of the points I am attempting to make, e.g. the tradition of masculinist crimes against women in not just Korea but NE Asia or the need for historical context, are too subtle for him to grasp. Perhaps English is not his first language?


 * As an example of my clear intent, I have proposed a pan-national workgroup for a Wikiproject on Sino-Japanese-Korean relations and advertised it on each related individual national workgroup page. There is interesting academic work being done on these topics but it is not going to make its way into the popular media or popular consciousness for sometime but it is worth the effort. --Ex-oneatf (talk) 05:54, 16 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Exact copy of the same bashing at here Besides, why are you attaching my previous name? PC78 of course knows it as well as other editors and admins.

Nothing personal, part of a bigger problem

 * Hi.


 * Yes, thanks for your message. I agree that it is best to keep out of it but you should not be dissuaded it. Reading up, it seems to be the usual "welcoming committee" for anyone attempting at balancing or resolving any of Caspian blue's "pet Korean pages". One would have to be blind not to see.


 * I had a look over the various histories and now I see you have had your own experiences with Caspian/Appletrees. It took me a while to connect the two.


 * It seems that I am only one of many that has had the same MO run on them and it appears that creating distasteful "noise" on talkpages and multiple attacks via admin pages is all part of it.


 * As I said on the discussion page, I think this approach puts off newcomers and, more importantly, the professional academics which these topics so badly need. It would be futile for them to attempt to join in and I think many already been have been put off.


 * As long as Caspian blue can find admins to reward their behavior, I suspect it will continue. --Ex-oneatf (talk) 00:33, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Renaming of filming terms

Film posters
I have been tagging random images as I run across them with the reduce template or Template:Move to Commons when necessary. I used to reduce the images myself but whenever the image was removed from the article due to vandalism or some other reason, my talk page would get swamped with bot requests telling me to fix the image. Now I just tag them, and usually only if they are way beyond the 300px. If you go through and reduce a whole bunch of your images, you can give me a list on a subpage or something, and I'll delete the old revisions and remove the tags for you. If not, just reduce them and they'll be reduced by other random administrators. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 04:47, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

List of Roman Catholic dioceses in Korea

 * If you look at the list, the dioceses are both in South and North Korea. Diocese of Pyongyang is in North Korea. The diocesan structure ignores the current political differences between the South and the North. If there is consensus I'll move it to Roman Catholic dioceses of South Korea and strip out the North Korean dioceses, but otherwise I'll leave them as is, since the diocese of Pyongyang is located in the category "Roman Catholic dioceses of South Korea".

Hi could you explain to me why this actress is "recognised by her chubby cheeks and height". She doesn't look all that chubby to me and is POV. Also why was she recnogized for her height?

Re: Infobox Film
That is a terrific idea! It would definitely be more economical and avoid flagcruft as well. Have you considered any potential fallacies, though? Right now, we suggest including the first film festival release date in the infobox, but I'm not sure if that is followed too closely. There's also limited releases and wide releases to think about. Also, what if there is a world premiere in a country whose name might be a little long in the tooth? Another consideration is to keep  since it's highly unlikely that we'll replace all of them (which may be an issue in itself). Still, though, that revision would definitely combat some clutter. Go ahead and start discussion! By the way, your involvement with WP:FILM is greatly appreciated. WikiProjects don't always move so quickly, but I think that with editors like yourself, WP:FILM is being a very active community! — Erik (talk • contrib) - 15:58, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/Mahaul Theek Hai
You pointed the way and ended up giving me hours of work (chuckle). However, I am unable to dissuade the delete votes. The original article has been much improved though and it was good practice. Thanks for your help. Schmidt (talk) 18:39, 3 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Who would have thought an AfD about a film would become a debate of newspapers as reliable sources? When RS states that reliabilty must be judged "in relation to the subject at hand" and that this "depends on context", I could never have even imagined that press reports about a released, acclaimed, and notable film could even be questioned... or further, that all other cites at the Mahaul Theek Hai article would have been ignored in order to concentrate on one newspaper. So as a exercize, I have further improved The Tribune's article to address concerns... and this may address the future. Thanks for wading in, as your knowledge of Wiki is far better than mine. Good looking out... and to repeat, this has been good practice. Thanks. Schmidt (talk) 18:04, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

I think that the event meets WP:CRYSTAL: "Individual scheduled or expected future events should only be included if the event is notable and almost certain to take place. If preparation for the event is not already in progress, speculation about it must be well documented." It cites the 2010 U.S. Senate elections and the 2016 Summer Olympics as examples. I think that for this festival, it's OK. If it was 2010 Sundance Film Festival, though, that would be problematic (considering that the film industry has no idea what to expect that far in the future). — Erik (talk • contrib) - 23:39, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse (trailer)
In considering this and this], maybe it would best for the short term to change the title back to include "trailer" as above. I wish to avoid any confusions between the new article and the one that died in AfD. Then, rather than have a redirect from Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse (trailer) to Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse, we can it the other way 'round. I can see that some newbies in the future might make additions to the article as it currently is titled, thinking it is about a (future) film rather than just about the trailer... and that'll throw it right back in AfD or CSD. Make sense? Schmidt (talk) 01:14, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Re:Miss Korea
Oh, her current beauty seems to be a miracle of science.... Yes, she is the winner of the 2000 Miss Daejeon/South Chungcheong Province pageant. It is like the winner of Miss Michigan in the United States. Daejeon is now one of metropolitan cities, but regionally, it is belonged to the province. That's why the title mixed with the city and region looks a little weird to you. The winners are titled Jin (진, ; literally meaning "true"). Runner-up is titled "Miss X-region Seon" or "Miss Y-city Seon" such as Miss Seoul Seon (선, ), meaning virtuous and the next is called "Miss Seoul Mi" (Mi denoting "beautiful"). In fact, Jinseonmi (진선미) is a widely used idiom in Korea or East Asia. Well, if you have more question on this, just drop me a note. Regards. --Caspian blue (talk) 01:14, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Buddy film
While I think that Buddy film should be kept, I'm not so sure about Category:Buddy films. The genre is not as clear as, say, science fiction or comedy. There is also a precedent in deleting such a category. Even if we don't do this, there's a lot of films that are questionably placed in the category. What do you think? — Erik (talk • contrib) - 18:24, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll nominate it at CFD after the AFD is closed. It may be worth finding notable examples of buddy films and adding them to the article (with citation, of course) to offset the absence of the categorized films. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 18:41, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Your userbox
It's currently in use, do you think we could let the MFD run? I think it's an important exercise. The fact that someone wants this userbox deleted just because (I gather?) they don't like its message shouldn't be taken lying down. – xeno  ( talk ) 16:58, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Jay and Seth
I just posted at the soon-to-be-lost AfD. I had felt that it was just that furor about a possible film that made the trailer and the article notable. I know of no other instance exactly like this one. I can appreciate the concerns of Giro, but as the AfD itself underscores, any article has to be judged on its own merits and not upon what might happen in the future. Its a pity. Schmidt (talk) 03:27, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

And i do think the naming conventions were part of the percieved problems... but that boat has sailed. Schmidt (talk) 03:28, 8 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I think I am ready to move contents from my sandbox, as I have proven a seperate notabilty for the trailer as a short film intended to promote attention for a proposed film. I am loathe to use the same title. What is your opinion? Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q.' 01:11, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I'll hold off as I seek a new title to go with the new direction of the article. There is support out there for the article about a short film... and as a short film it needs a slightly less stringent set of requirements. Its notability is all in how it was percieved and in what it caaused... not in itself for being an interesting minute and 25 seconds. If I can get Giro's blessing, I'll pit it up again... but differently.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 02:51, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I am of course, I think I can present the information in a manner that will make the article live. Consider these two phrases: "No. Don't. Stop." and "No, don't stop." They have nearly indentical content and yet two completely different meanings. I do not wish to treat the trailer as just a trailer. Its notability is in who did it, why they did it, and the results of their doing it. This is doable.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 03:05, 13 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Well... we're supposed to be bold... yes? I did some last tweaking and sourcing to my sandbox article and moved the whole kit and kaboodle to the Seth and Jay article's page. I just left a note at the AfD asking the delete voters compare the 1st AfD with what originally went in to the 2nd Afd to what nows fills that page. With the change in direction for the article, it just ain't the same one that was being voted against. It may yet be deleted, but I know I did my best in the face of tough odds and I feel good about myself and my work there. If it gets deleted now, I'll ask for a review. Your advice has been invaluable and I appreciate your counsel. Thank you.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 05:00, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: Gurren Lagann
The banner may be there because the 2008 animated film does not appear to have its own article. Maybe ask on the talk page if there is enough information for a film article to exist, and the banner can be placed on that article's talk page instead of the talk page for the article about the television series.

 * By the way, I saw User:PC78/future films. There's a Release dates subpage at FUTFILM, though it's American releases (meaning that some films in the list have already been released).  I've been reassessing the new ones with each release date.  Any interest in consolidating resources and expand the scope of release dates?  I think we should research the film festival release dates to see how important they are (like if films that make appearances always plan for commercial releases or not later). — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 16:45, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Outsourced (film)
Well, I just don't think it's good to delete a talk page, even for as dubious an article as this. and dubious it is. I could not find any recent sourcing for outsourced. I don't think it would survive AFD. I questioned the notability on the talk page, ironically. I just don't feel comfortable deleting the talk page. I honestly can't be sure what would be best. No prejudice against you retagging. Maybe someone else will feel better about speedying it. Cheers,  Dloh  cierekim  19:15, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Modification

 * OK but can we please not try to mention my contributions again in any Wp:Film related discussion as it always seems to be brought up in our discussions and it really is irrelevant what I have done on wikipedia. However much it appears I am only acting in self interest I am only keen that no time is wasted in how we proceed and that any constructive attempts by whoever in whatever area of the project are modified rather wasted and that stands for everybody. I only responded to your "you can keep that attitude to yourself" comment. I didn't mean to be cynical of your intentions but believe me I;ve seen many instances on wikipedia when we have lost articles or a system and editors haven't followed up on their word with replacing it as was initially proposed. The Bald One      White cat 19:13, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I don't mind people offering their own views and persectives on a certain issue or disagreeing with an article. I am completely open to editors who have their own views or recommendations on a certain subject. What I am against however is deletionism for whatever reason and I see a TFD as an aggressive action when we could have reignited the film project discussion on it to reach a consensus there and found a way to modify it so we can all agree without a threat of an imposing deletion. Of course I am going to care if I thought time spent has been wasted. There is so much to do on wikipedia that to think weeks of time went to no purpose is a crime. That isn't to say my view or your view is right it just means I;ve wasted time. If the templates were replaced with the see also section it is a limited loss, providing they are all replaced. However I thought it would be no small task to apply them to all 12,000 articles and time which could be spent expanding the stubs we have which matter most this is all I'm saying. The Bald One     White cat 19:46, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

OK but I'd rather we could discuss things whether at the project or wherever without somebody criticising me personally for what I say in discussions. I only respond to something it if appears that somebody has indicated me personally or told me what I should do. The notes about WP:OWN in the previous conversation or telling me to drop an attitude were directed at me and is the only reason I responded like so. If we could discuss things without personal conflict or directing a comment towards each other personally and we all feel free to participate in the discussion without constaints, in a civil fashion I'd much rather this. The Bald One     <font size="-4"><font color="Black">White cat 20:23, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Anyway I'd rather we moved on as I can see none of us intended to be particularly uncivil but rather acting by our own views and thoughts. Perhaps you could move our discussion from the TFD to your talk page to privatise it. If we do decide to apply the new template to consolidate the history of film as a whole I think we ought to make it a standrd component of the article. Whether we use a see also section or the template might I suggest we use a bot to apply them to all of the articles for consistency. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">The Bald One     <font size="-4"><font color="Black">White cat 20:31, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

(Sigh) Exactly I said "if" you are not willing to change them. It was a speculation in that it would require thousands of edits to change which many lesser editors would not be willing to take on. Basically I was saying as long as you do change them if they are deleted. It wasn't meant as an attack. If you had fully intended to replace every one of the templates with the section then I admire you for taking it on and underestimated your dedication to WP:Films. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">The Bald One     <font size="-4"><font color="Black">White cat 20:40, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

OK it seems I was too cynical towards you which started it. But believe me I have seen many editors not keeping to their word as they initially said. If you had fully intended to replace them all as you said then I apologise for speculating that you wouldn't, but it is no small task.

Film year templates
What do you mean pages that already have them?? None of the lists connected the specific detailed year lists by country together before. They are not like the filmsbycountry template it that they are intended to connect the specific years together. Plus its taken me hours to place them in the lists. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">The Bald One     <font size="-4"><font color="Black">White cat 12:48, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Ah I see! Wow he was quick I only made them a few days ago. I won't be making anymore film templates anyway, it had been an intention to connect the year lists together some time but I hadn't got around to it. The reason I placed them at the top was to serve as a sort of toolbar for films of that year. I thought it might look too cluttered with the others at the bottom. If nobody likes them at the top, they'll gradually get moved to the bottom anyway I'm sure. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">The Bald One     <font size="-4"><font color="Black">White cat 12:58, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Well it ties a lot of pages together and is starting to take shape now it is quite cool to browse the lists by year.. Next task is to fill out these lists with all the titles of each year and try to fill them in. I see the lists as sort of portals for film on wikipedia. If we fill out the lists with red links for titles and actors then it also serves as a tool to work around and build content.

I noticed your work on recent South Korean films. Well done! Very well referenced. Might want to think about proposing some for a featured list! ONly downside is that there is no room for the sideplate. It doesn't matter really as the korean footplate connects them anyway! <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">The Bald One     <font size="-4"><font color="Black">White cat 13:02, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Ice Blues
I understand why you returned the "Future film" tag to the article, because it says the film is going to premiere on an American network in September -- however, the film was on a Canadian TV channel last month (I saw it and recorded it, as it says on the talk page). I'm going to remove the tag, and I hope you concur. If you have any questions, I'm at your service. Accounting4Taste: talk 23:14, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your note. Unfortunately the Superchannel web page is not very helpful when it comes to things that have already been on the air, so I've made a note to see if I can track it down some other way.  (It was screened here as part of 24 hours of gay-related films for Gay Pride Day, which I think was in late June.)  The site attests that it will be on again in about two weeks, but I agree, there should be a citation, and I'll keep trying to find one.  Accounting4Taste: talk 23:24, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/2081 (film)
Since you !voted in this AfD the author has added a reference to the Moving Picture Institute which helps to confirm that the film exists but to my mind does not help with notability because the MPI are not independent - they funded the film.

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

C class (default opt-in; need consensus to opt-out, right?)
Hello, I recently reopened the assessment department to WikiProject Law after it had been defunct for several months. Can you please give a short statement that about how the default is for a wikiproject to opt-in the C class and there must be a consensus to opt-out? There is an editor who is not a participant in WP Law (but who is a participant in WP India and some other WPs who rejected the C class) who is reverting the C class assessments I've made in WP Law articles based on the argument that the C class has not yet been "adopted" by WP Law. The editor says s\he disagrees with the new C class, which is fine with me, but the editor is reverting C class assessments (about 70) without a WP Law consensus for the opt-out and is in fact the only editor who wants to opt-out of the C class. A short statement from you would help an admin mediate the dispute. Thank you. EECavazos (talk) 20:32, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Nordic cinema
HI. These are exciting times are they not? What I had in mind two years ago on here seems to be gradually taking shape. The project is better and more organised than ever. I;m particularly pleased with the Nordic task force and the devleopment of articles such as A Victim of the Mormons. Who;d have ever though in the olden days we would have a half decent article on a] a 1911 film and b] a silent danish movie. If we can add such content en masse which are of s similar standard this project will devleop massively. Some day we'll have every notable film from every country, and up to a half decent standard (hopefully). I;m keen to encourage editors to edit Latin American film although this seems to be a sadly neglected part of films on here. I;ve proposed a new project but I doubt I'll get anybody to follow it as most interested editors are likely to be working on spanish wikipedia aside from the one or two film buffs we have on here. Anyway just to tell you I proposed and with Her Peghsip got Category:Danish film stubs up and running. I;ve also proposed Iceland, Norwegian and Czech film stubs if you would kindly chip in at the stub sorting proposals as well as a proposed split of documentary film stubs as it concerns WP:Films.

For some reason your requested changes caused the template to send all the categories to Category:Unassessed film articles.

 * Thank you for your consideration. Was it on the present sparse article, or the version that survived the first AfD?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 23:46, 16 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I asked for your opinion becuase I respect it. If I wanted sweetness and light, I would have asked a fan over at Tom Goes to the Mayor, or Tim and Eric Awesome Show or Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (chuckle). And inre your latest response, actually WP:POLICY WP:V does trump WP:N... since its a guideline that offers ways to document notability as in WP:Notability (persons), WP:ENTERTAINER, WP:BIO, etc., and sends one to WP:RS where the quality of sources is discussed which in turns sends one back to WP:V. The point here being that if something is notable, even if there are not reams of documents reviewing that action, if the fact(s) ot the notable action(s) can be confirmed through WP:V, that should suffice... as the core tenet of Wikipedia being verifiability. Granted, in-depth reviews by the Washington Post would be superb and less likley to be attacked, but the lack does not eliminate the simple beauty of verifiability. No worries. We will liklely have this discussion at other AfD's. Thank you very much for your honesty, which is quite appreciated.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:55, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

I suppose I'm a bit frustrated at not getting anything "hard" to back up the claim, but that's no excuse for getting personal or letting the conversation go on past the point where it's productive. I respect you as an editor, and don't see any reason that we need to go toe-to-toe on this, rather than simply agree to disagree. Again, my apologies for my part in escalating, please believe that it wasn't personal or even intentional. Best, Ed Fitzgerald t / c 20:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello
Hi, I saw your move about Bangladesh-South Korea relations. I don't know what it exactly differs so I just wanna ask what the difference is from my first edition to yours... Just for my curiosity... would you answer this? Pju0353 (talk) 04:03, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Bride Service (film)
Had fun with this one, and have sourced the hell out of it. The film is used across the country in Anthropology courses and is archived at the Smithsonian. Though a merge to Timothy Asch would be easy, this Documentary seems to have its own notability per WP:NF, and could be worthy of expansion. Yes? No?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:03, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * And as for the merge... I might otherwise agree because this one stub would not clutter his page... but he's done dozens of award winning films now used in anthroplogy courses and in national archive... and they would defintely become a clutter on his bio page. I figure it best to have a stub now than to have to clean out his article later and (re)create new articles about his films.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:23, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * What would think about a well-sourced subpage List of Timothy Asch films where these can all exist outside each having a seperate article? .. with each stub having its own section of synopsis, infobox, links and sources? Of cources, this would like having 2 dozen film article stubs stacked on top on each other... but it would have them then all in one place. It could begin as a simple cut-n-paste of existing artcles, and be added to as editors get to it.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:27, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I would just hate to see a simple "list", as many of these stubs have won awards, as being quite influential and respected in their field. Can a list include in-depth analysis, including synopsis and awards? And what is the consensus on multiple infoboxes in one "list"?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:35, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Fun stuff. Looking over the current list at the filmmaker's page, I can see that expansion there to include each one's individual notability {awards / in university teaching / being in national archives) could become quite unweildy quite quckly. That would indicate that individual articles are merited... but so many stubs. Argh. So maybe a long article (glorified list) that includes information as stated above, would best improve wiki. all eggs in 2 baskets, rather than 24 half-empty baskets or one bursting to overflowing?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:47, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Please look at THIS, as I have copied the Asch film list and then copied all pertinant informatios from the several film articles. Opinion? Suggestion?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 19:55, 25 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay... I'm being pre-emptive, since we are not getting much discusion at the AfD. I just put a link from the "film" section on the Asch page to the expanded "list" page I created. The nom agrees that a merge best serves Wiki. I am not worried about the infobox question as except for title and length, it would have all the same production onfo. What will be the best way to delete the original list from the Asch article and then delete the 12-odd stubs of other Asch films?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 06:24, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * And dummy that I was, I just now saw your response to my earlier question. I'll look into addressing the question to Talk Film.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 06:29, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Future film parameters
I've sprinkled the template through the 2008-2009 categories. I was wondering, how do we handle categories as they expire? Is it appropriate to use these kinds of temporal categories? — Erik (talk • contrib) 18:40, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: Template:Korean name
Yes, I'm aware that there are a lot of them. I plan on taking care of it all. I notified the creator (and only significant contributor) of the category and asked him if I was missing anything. He replied that he's fine with renaming so there is no need for CFD. Now that I have his response, I'll rename the category, the re-categorize the templates, and delete the redirects (per CSD G6). It may take me a bit to do, but it's pretty straight forward to clean-up. Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 12:45, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

WP:FILMS Assessment
Sorry for taking so long getting back to you, I've been uploading numerous Wikimedia Commons images that I was fortunate to get permission for. Looking over your message, I can see your points you raised. I don't know exactly where in the archives the discussion is but it probably around late 2006 to early 2007. Still comparing the template with the grading scheme, I think it accurately represents what a Start article should have. "The article has a meaningful amount of good content, but it is still weak in many areas, and may lack some key elements." A meaningful amount of good content, seems to me acceptable to include a plot, cast, and two sections covering any aspect of the film. When I assess an article I don't count the sections and then just reassess the article, I do look over the content. I have assessed articles that were below these requirements but had a stronger point elsewhere in the article to warrant Start class. Each article can be different depending on the amount of available information/sources, but meeting a basic threshold of a few fundamental sections for a film article shouldn't be too difficult. Also from the grading scheme: "Has at least one serious element of gathered materials, including any one of the following: "A subheading that fully treats an element of the topic or multiple subheadings that indicate material that could be added to complete the article." Again multiple subheadings falls under this template again. It doesn't require that they be complete/sourced/long, but just introduce the topics. Rather than fighting the notion of having to add an additional section, it would be simpler and more constructive of everyone's time to just add the section, and the article would benefit. I'm not here to try and hurt anyone's feelings when I downgrade an article, and editors shouldn't worry too much about the classes outside of the higher ones anyway. Their focus should be on the article itself. My intentions are to make sure that the quality of our articles improve, and attempt to ensure that the articles at the different class levels are uniform. That's fine if you want to open the C-class discussion, but I think inclusion of the class is not necessary for the project. It's just one more class that we have to continue to maintain, will need to reassess all of our articles, and I think will require a large amount of time for something that is very close between Start and B-class. Instead of focusing on adding one more class, our members could be diverting our efforts elsewhere, including improving the articles. The purpose of the upcoming drive is not to focus on downgrading articles, but will be to tag all of the articles with needed infoboxes/images/cast/production etc. (so we know what work still needs to be done and update articles that have already addressed these tags), and if a reassessment is necessary for an article, it will be changed. I still recognize that your interpretation of the assessment differs from mine, and if you think that our project is suffering because of it, please feel free to mention it on the project's talk page so that we can get a consensus again on what people believe is acceptable. I had assumed the consensus at the time was enough, and haven't heard any complaints yet, but as times and standards change, maybe people feel the same way as you do. Thanks again for contacting me, and hopefully our assessment process continues to improve. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 22:21, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

I'm quite impressed by the number and quality of your new Korean film contributions. Nice work! Shame a few of the other contributors to Korean film such as Dekkappai hated the wiki "police" so much they no longer contribute. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 22:04, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

I know! I've got thousands of articles I want to start from all over not to mention all the world lists I want to fill out. However for some weeks imdb is not responding to searches so starting them is not easy. The amount missing for countries like Japan too really are mind blowing. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 22:16, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi again PC. Can you help me move the top by countryyear templates down to the bottom. Please see Italian films of 1965. I think we should keep the template open at default for convenience but I think they look better at the bottom rather than the top can you help? <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 18:35, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Korean infoboxes
Hi PC. I appreciate your efforts with Korean film but do you think you could find a way to intergrate the Korean infoboxes (which go against guidelines for actors because you arren't using the standard template) into the actor infoboxes. Add the Korean parameters to the actor infboxes so you can use the actor infoboxes but also have the ability to display the Korean. At present it seems that the Korean actor articles are inconsistent with everywhere else. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 11:02, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Well if you include both boxes the articles start to look cluttered and if you only use the Korean name infobox which I've noticed you tend to do then they are different from the standard infobox. Why would it be so difficult to merge infoboxes? You always insist on keeping things standard for WP:Films so why should actors be any different? You;d be up in arms if somebody started replacing WP:Film boxes for any country with something "nationalised". In all honesty how many English speaking people which make up the majority of our readers find 6 or 7 transliterations of a name in a language most of which don't understand so useful that it consitutes a great big box at the start of every article? <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 13:10, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

I would strongly propose following Template:Infobox Korean film by creating Template:Infobox Korean-language singer and actor which caters for Korean actors. I was exaggerating when I said about the number of transliterations and the box does actually look presentable evne if sometimes a little big but if there was a template like the Korean film I'd fully support it as a merged template. I understand that you want articles to be consistent all across Korea but these articles also are very much part of WP:Actors and we also want consistency. Would the creation of a specifically designed Template:Infobox Korean actor be unreasonable? Evidently somebody raised the same concerns as me previously about the film infoboxes and transliteration templates in the film articles, otherwise that Korean film template wouldn't have been proposed, created or even approved.

Actually your example of Template:Infobox Chinese-language singer and actor is exactly what I mean and think would be good for Korean actors and singers. Then naturally it could include all the Korean awards for acting and singing loike the Chinese one. I also am not keen on too many infoboxes, I want simplification and consistency too but I think in these circumstances would be a perfectly reasonable one to create. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 13:39, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Well its articles like Ju Jin-mo that we have which don't have infobox actors but have a transliteration box that concerns me. For Jo Yoon-hee for example it would seme perfectly appropriate to have one infobox rather than it underneath seperately. Thats my thought on it anyway. I think I'll ask a few people. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 13:46, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Thats generally because people haven't put much effort yet into those articles and they need a lot of work. But if people can put the effort into adding detailed transliteration boxes you'd think the infobox actor would be quicker and rather more easier to add. <font style="color:#fef;background:black;">Count Blofeld 14:10, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: Assessment for Pin Malakul
I have provided citations for the paragraphs you tagged with and for most of the honours. I accessed the original certificates for those, so I'm not quite sure how to properly format the citations. The ones still missing citations are because the original certificates were not included in the archive, but photographs of the actual medals were available, and the dates were provided in the photograph captions, which unfortunately are not printed publications. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:38, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Tag and assess drive
Are you referring to the bot finding articles currently lacking the film banner and adding it? If so, I think that would be a great addition if somebody could develop it. The drive was also going to be for us to tag articles that still need plot/cast/production/infobox, etc., task forces, as well as reassess the articles by class. If we could have a bot help us with some of these issues as well, it would definitely decrease the workload for the editors. --Nehrams2020 (talk) 02:09, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe we can somehow find one to tag specific aspects (like have it do all of the infoboxes, for example) and then go on to do others. However, I'm not too familiar with how the bots work, so I'm not sure of their full potential. Make sure to bring it up once we get closer to starting a drive. --Nehrams2020 (talk) 05:28, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I meant something like tagging all articles that didn't have an infobox and putting a tag in the film banner. Again, I don't know if that is feasible or not though. But what you are talking about may work as well. There should definitely be no problems issuing the awards, our project has done well with that in prior drives/contests. With so many potential awards, and so many articles to review, there are likely going to be many awards given out. --Nehrams2020 (talk) 18:34, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

 * It might be a browser thing. I use Firefox, for what that's worth. Anyway, the dividing line is at 3px, while the normal is one. I did try 5px, but it looked very odd. I'll tinker more later and see if it makes a difference to you. Wildhartlivie (talk) 16:30, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
