Flic Story
I began the above article for you. I thought perhaps a noiry French crime thriller might be something you might enjoy tinkering with. I'll find some reliable websites as sources and list them below for you. Those links at the very top of the page should help you if you have a Q about writing, and for other info just look at what I've written already, or ask me! :) SGGH speak! 11:20, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * IMDB page
 * BFI page
 * Some google books on it
 * Films of France review
 * Rotten Tomatoes synopsis

Shame that I really want to write this article too! I've never written a film one :P SGGH speak! 13:00, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Alternative music
Just noticed you added your name to the list of alt music members. However, the areas you're interested in ("late 70's glitter rock, proto-punk, punk, and 'new wave' articles.") aren't really covered by the project. Just to let you know. CloudNine (talk) 18:14, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
 * (Saw this on CloudNine's talk page) Yeah, I really don't see Subway Sect coming under the scope of the project. However, several post-punk bands do, given they outlasted the post-punk/New Wave era and created music that's classified under alt-rock. Some big ones: The Cure, New Order, Siouxsie & the Banshees, later period Public Image Ltd., 1980s Wire, XTC. If a band falls under grunge, Britpop, goth, indie rock, "college rock", indie pop, post-grunge, etc., it's in the scope of the project. WesleyDodds (talk) 07:11, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
 * You love The Cure! SGGH speak! 08:14, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Your pictures are excellent, just wanted to say that. You're very talented, unlike a lot of artists who make a lot of money pickling livestock and putting up tents. Nick mallory (talk) 10:46, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Cricket graphic artists
I noticed in the assistance needed section you are requesting graphic designers for wikiproject needs. User:Red Gown is one of the most talented artists I've seen, she just doodles these works of art seemingly without effort! She drew Geoffrey Boycott for his article. Admittedly I am slightly bias, but I'm sure if you leave a note on her talk page she would enjoy doing whatever art/design jobs you require. SGGH speak! 12:35, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I've long thought that Flight (cricket) could do with an illustration of the trajectory of a cricket ball. And it's so fundamental to the game (and so different from baseball) that I'd argue for including it in Cricket. --Dweller (talk) 13:33, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I have along list: (umpire hand signals, batting shots, illustration of nine types of dismissals) =Nichalp   «Talk»=  13:57, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I suspect she would very much enjoy that, she can do sketches like the Boycott one very quickly. If you pull up a list and put it on her user page I'm sure she can get some done for you. I'll google her some photos so she knows what to base them on. SGGH speak! 14:18, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Of course I'd be absolutely chuffed to help out in any way I can. Any excuse to draw something is good enough for me (I can even do digital illustration if needs be), and I can further my cricket education at the same time. --Red Gown (talk) 04:20, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * That's really great! I'll put up my wishlist shortly. :) =Nichalp   «Talk»=  06:37, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Wishlist
Would prefer it as simple line art, and if possible in SVG format, so that it can be tweaked (or animated, if and when supported). I know it's a lot here, so if its too much to do, then consider only the umpire signals as most important.


 * There are two signals for penalty runs -- one indicating runs to the batting side, one indicating runs to the fielding side. See Umpire_(cricket).  I don't recall there having been a signal for substitutes.  Sam Korn (smoddy) 07:35, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, I think Red Gown will have to ask me what each signal is before she settles down to draw it. We will try the first one this evening, neither of us are at work today. SGGH speak! 11:39, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't know she was your wife. Nice to have the two of you on board. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  12:52, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm trying to get her into cricket :D SGGH speak! 15:02, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * You didn't actually ask for this one, but I just found an image of Jayawardene in the perfect forward defense position, but I haven't a clue which article it'd be good on. Any ideas? Image:Forward defense (cricket).jpg is the one in question. Regards, AllynJ (talk | contribs) 17:56, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Howzaaaat???? --Dweller (talk) 09:48, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Excellent, ta. :) AllynJ (talk | contribs) 16:15, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I suggest to had underarm bowling and roundarm bowling... OrangeKnight (talk) 12:30, 23 September 2008 (UTC) ... and a Bodyline field, too... OrangeKnight (talk) 10:05, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure, do add it to the list. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  05:27, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Do we have any models here who are willing to pose as umpires with white coat or willing to pretend to be batsmen playing a cut shot? Much more efficient?  YellowMonkey  ( bananabucket ) 01:42, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe you could ask User:The Rambling Man. He has some nice black and white bathrobes. :) =Nichalp   «Talk»=  05:27, 25 September 2008 (UTC)`

Not sure if anyone could pose. That would be a first :) or maybe WP:OR :) You could ask and take a chance. Regards, =Nichalp   «Talk»=  18:44, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Any chance of an illustration for Flight (cricket)? --Dweller (talk) 15:32, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
 * And while we are at, a certain Wikipedian said that amongst the many things you are brilliant at, being able to fix this image of its general blurriness is at the top of the list. Australian Cricket Team 1932.jpg --Roisterer (talk) 11:08, 20 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, I’m afraid that a photocopy of an old newspaper pretty much describes it. --Roisterer (talk) 00:44, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

How exciting (and please don't apologise)! I have no set ideas on format - I guess I'd suggest using whatever format you think will most clearly demonstrate the concept. I'll leave it to your artistic intuition! Thanks, --Dweller (talk) 11:55, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
