High Steel
Hi. I created High Steel. If you have any info from offline sources, please do add to it. BTW, Zoë Druick's book ref is comically wrong: she thinks the Mohawks are from Gananoque (which of course is far away in Ontario) and repeats the error over and over. LOL.

Update, June 11
Good morning. I was hoping to contribute one more film page, but couldn't find anything on Arcand's first feature, his student film from 1962. So that's it for now for film pages. I have a dozen or so names I want to do that won't need the resources of TIFF's library. I'll pass them on over the summer, then back to the films in the fall. In the meantime, I have been gathering all my material on the web and created a catalogue on my wiki page. Unfortunately, the wiki copyright watchdogs won't allow me to post the covers of my magazine. Not happy about that. Thank you for all your patience. It's been a pleasure working with you. I'll be in touch. Cheers.Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 09:59, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Linking to yourself
Hi Wyndham, hope you're well. I'd respectfully suggest that you consider reverting this edit, "published by Wyndham Wise." I think it takes you potentially close to an appearance of conflict of interest, per WP:SELFCITE. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:07, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi. I see what you mean, and have eliminated the link. As for the phrasing of Rozema's win at Cannes with Mermaids. I see you or someone noted the same in Canadian Encyclopedia. With your permission, i will rewrite that line and send you the rewrite via this page before I upload it to the wiki page.Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 14:53, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm not quite sure what you mean, but yes, do it here first and I'll be glad to have a look. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:55, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I mean I was confused. I thought your note meant i had used the same text that appears on the Canadian Encyclopedia website. I see you just wanted me to get rid of the link I added. Which I did. I'm really annoyed that my Take One covers where removed from my Wiki page. And I can't seem to get a hold of the person removing things. I can see copyright on text, but who has copyright to my covers? That I would like to know.Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 15:06, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * When were Take One covers removed from your user page? It must have been a while ago? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:12, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Over the weekend I upload five covers to my Wiki page and they were removed overnight. And I got a standard notice of Wiki copyright violation. What I can't figure is who has the copyright to my covers and why can't I display them on my Wiki page?Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 15:15, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Oh yes I see. But again, I suspect it may be because you haven't used the proper licensing when you've uploaded it? I'm more concerned about all the links you've added to your bio article, which is having the effect of turning into something of a WP:LINKFARM. And ideally you should declare your involvement on the talk page, using Template:Connected contributor, too. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:47, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

William Davidson & Now That April's Here

 * Good morning. Here are two more entries for Wikipedia. Please let me know. Thank you. User:Wyndham Paul Wise/William Davidson (producer) and User:Wyndham Paul Wise/Now That April's Here (film).Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 11:19, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
 * They certainly look interesting to me. I'll move them and we'll if anyone raises any concerns. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:10, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Eliza'a Horoscope

 * Hi again. Here is an interesting, but obscure Canadian feature. User:Wyndham Paul Wise/Eliza's Horoscope. I hope you like it.Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 12:02, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay. The "obscure" part makes me a little nervous but you do cite book refs and then there's also those Canadian Film Awards. And it was already linked to from a number of lists and articles. Done! Shawn in Montreal (talk) 12:07, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Deux femmes en or

 * User:Wyndham Paul Wise/Deux femmes en or. When it comes to obscure Canadian films, that would apply to most of the films made in the 1960s and early 1970s. It's only guys like me who are keeping these films alive. Do you know that The Grey Fox, one of the great Canadian films of all time, is no longer available to seen since it is caught up in a copyright dispute. Canadian cinema is the cinema of amnesia.Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 23:16, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I know you don't speak French but there's a wealth of missing info on the film's production and release at http://www.filmsquebec.com/films/deux-femmes-en-or-claude-fournier/ Have you ever used Google Translate? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 00:14, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I know there is a lot about the film in French. In fact, it has a French wiki page. However, in the past I have avoided using French references. I can translate the French pages, and I read French (but not speak). I think what you are saying is that you would like the page 'fattened up.' I can do that. Leave it with me and I'll be back.Wyndham Paul Wise (talk) 02:21, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
