No problemo. I can see where the confusion stememd from. It's a shame that the editors who combine templates don't always check the entries afterwards. You were right about there being a few other examples of multiple templates on Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play winners. I've visually checked all the winning actor articles and fixed the ones I've found so at least that particular template should cause no further problems.

My feeling is that the type of work the film is based on (novel, non-fiction book, short story or play) is important to have in the infobox, and if that's going in, then the date might as well go in too. In most cases the source material is going to have been published within a couple of years of the film's release, but in others the film comes long after the source, especially when it's a remake.

It's not a life or death issue for me, and absolutely no offense was taken, but I do prefer that the type and date be in the infobox.

Thanks for the message. For me (and I think I read this at some point but it would been 7 or so years ago so I could be wrong) the items in the infobox are to be about the film. The form of the source material and the publication date aren't about the film so that is why they aren't (usually) included. As you say it isn't life or death and I appreciate the time you took to explain things. Cheers and have a good week on wiki and off. Especially off!!

@Gadfium: Thanks for the update. I had meant to leave you a message about my experience with just this kind of thing in the Helen Mirren article. Several newspaper and internet articles gave Chiswick as her birthplace. Then in her 60 Minutes interview she said that she was born at Southend-on-Sea. Then in researching her memoir she found out that she was born in a hospital in Hammersmith. That helped me learn that all too many writers and interviewers take it for granted that the town where a persons parents lived is where the child was born. Once again many thanks for all your efforts in this.

I have (at least twice) seen a small edit war over a particular person's birthplace, with one side favouring Hammersmith and the other Charing Cross - both sides supported by reference(s). This is usually caused by a misunderstanding of the location of Charing Cross Hospital which is actually more than four miles away from Charing Cross - and in fact is in Hammersmith. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:43, 21 January 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-21T16:43:00.000Z","author":"Redrose64","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Redrose64-2014-01-21T16:43:00.000Z-MarnetteD-2014-01-21T05:51:00.000Z","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2014-01-21T18:42:00.000Z-Redrose64-2014-01-21T16:43:00.000Z"]}}-->

I've seen it say "None (atheist)" or "None (agnostic)" in various other articles. So why do you have a problem with it with the article about Bob Hoskins?

@Captain Cornwall: That does not imply that they were correct. This is an either … or … or … situation.
It cannot be two (with one in parentheses)
Even the reference provided supports this criterium:

"I was brought up an atheist while my dad was a communist. I can’t really believe there is an old fellow up there guiding us all. I can’t really believe there is heaven and hell." - Bob Hoskins in an Oct 2002 article in the Scotsman titled 'Preacher Features'.
In his April 2012 interview with Saga magazine, Bob Hoskins states candidly he is an atheist. "I’m an atheist you know, so family is everything, I’ve got money, yeah, but it’s my family that I care about." - Bob Hoskins.

But your claim that Hoskins is "Agnostic" is not even supported in the article's references.
I think "None" is correct here.

Gareth is correct and in the case of none we leave it blank. BTW the field is normally only used if the religion is a part of the persons public life not their private one.

So glad you will get to watch it.

There have been three (out of five) rounds of matches so far, thus, each team can score up to four more table points. Mathematically, the championship could go any way except Italy; Scotland's chances are small, but any of the other four (with two wins each) could win. But don't worry about what happens if it's a draw or a low-margin win: England are level with Wales on table points, and are ahead on points difference alone, so if Wales win this weekend, they move above England whatever the margin; if England win, or it's a draw, they stay where they are, relative to each other. Ireland should beat Italy by a comfortable margin, and so will remain top; if France beat Scotland, they can climb above whichever of England & Wales loses; but for Scotland to manage that, they need to beat France by a massive margin.

As happens so often, the final day (15 March) will decide it, which is what makes it one of the great sporting competitions - it's rarely decided earlier. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:15, 7 March 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-03-07T20:15:00.000Z","author":"Redrose64","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Redrose64-2014-03-07T20:15:00.000Z-MarnetteD-2014-03-07T19:25:00.000Z","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2014-03-07T21:08:00.000Z-Redrose64-2014-03-07T20:15:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks for taking the time to lay things out for me R. I was remembering last years "they might share the Cup" situation. It has been a real treat to get to see all the games this year. This weekend is the first time that I am bothered by them not showing the games live. I will miss getting to cheer and be groan at the same time as the two of you. On another note my DVD of The Web of Fear arrived today. After the pattern of (roughly) one Classic series DVD release a month for the last few years it is going to be an adjustment not having a new release to look forward to. Ah well.

I've not got my WoF yet. The shop that I normally buy them from (HMV Oxford) closes in about three weeks time, and to wind-down the stocks they've been under-ordering the new releases since January. So when I went along to buy mine, they said that they had sold out the previous day and no more were on order. I shall try HMV Reading tomorrow, or maybe one of the HMV in London if I go to the meetup on Sunday.

There is at least one more to go: the "Coming Soon" trailer on The Moonbase was for The Underwater Menace. --Redrose64 (talk) 21:40, 7 March 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-03-07T21:40:00.000Z","author":"Redrose64","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Redrose64-2014-03-07T21:40:00.000Z-MarnetteD-2014-03-07T21:08:00.000Z","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2014-03-07T23:19:00.000Z-Redrose64-2014-03-07T21:40:00.000Z"]}}-->

I got my The Moonbase DVD a few weeks ago. I am not a big fan of the animated episodes. Eyes and mouths move but most everything else is static. I suspect the costs are prohibitive but in the CGI of 2014 I wish they could do better. Sometimes the current animation looks too much like Clutch Cargo. Now I did enjoy that show as a kid so I don't mean this as a complete slam of the current situation but, for me, I like listening to the CDs of the shows with missing episodes. My imagination has more fun that way :-) UM doesn't have a release date yet so I wonder what is holding it up. Sorry to hear about your store closing.

I got TWoF yesterday - HMV Reading had 25 copies in stock; I have now watched episode 1.

Rugby: one thing that I haven't mentioned so far is the Triple Crown, which doesn't depend upon the results of any matches involving France or Italy, so I won't be spoiling yesterday's results for you. No matter how Wales perform against Scotland next week, the Triple Crown will go to England if they win today, but will not be awarded if Wales win (or it's a draw). Wales are out of the running because they already lost to Ireland; Ireland are out because they lost to England; and Scotland lost to both England and Ireland.

The question of "who can finish as Champions" that I mentioned above has been enumerated at 2014 Six Nations Championship#Table, under "Final round scenarios:" as has the question of who can finish bottom; but the positions from 2 down to 5 are very complicated, particularly fourth place which can go to any team except Italy.

Hi, and thanks M. I am so pleased you were able to view all the matches. Watching the skills shown by "my boys" in their win against Scotland on Saturday was a masterclass in open rugby.

Dr. Who: Keeley to play Ms Delphox

Here's what the BBC is saying about Keeley Hawes' role on Dr Who

Line Of Duty's Keeley Hawes will join the cast of Doctor Who, following rave reviews for her outstanding performance as DI Lindsay Denton in the hit BBC drama. Starring opposite the Doctor, Hawes will guest star for one episode in Peter Capaldi's first ever series as the Time Lord.

Set to transmit in the autumn this year, Hawes will play Ms Delphox, a powerful out-of-this-world character with a dark secret. Travelling across space and time the Twelfth Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and his companion, Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman), will come face to face with the mysterious Ms Delphox when they arrive on a strange and puzzling planet. — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| — 22:45, 18 March 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-03-18T22:45:00.000Z","author":"Gareth Griffith-Jones","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Gareth_Griffith-Jones-2014-03-18T22:45:00.000Z-Peter_Capaldi_as_Doctor_Who_with_Keeley_Hawes","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2014-03-19T04:21:00.000Z-Gareth_Griffith-Jones-2014-03-18T22:45:00.000Z"]}}-->

Interesting stuff. I have conflicted thoughts about having to wait until next Sept for new eps. On one hand, after all the joys of the 50th anniversary, I wanted new episodes ASAP. OTOH as I recently watched several of Matt's episodes again I got the sense that the delay will help Peter. Matt's portrayal was so unique (and beloved among young fans of the show) that having several months go by could help in letting their memories fade and getting them excited for the direction that PC will take the character. As to Keeley that is wonderful news. Line of Duty hasn't aired here yet but I already had fun watching her as the time travelling (of a sort) detective Alex Drake in Ashes to Ashes. Cheers.

Here are the reasons that I felt the items merited removal A} WP:OTHERSTUFF B) The additions are unsourced C) There needs to some degree of notability for items to be added and a high schools production is unlikely to ever reach that point, and d) The editor in question looks to be a WP:SPA and looks to have a WP:COI in this situation.

Hi, I take it you are not an inclusionist Wikipedian. I have no grievances. I don't know why you call it POV, it was all sourced. I don't agree with your reverting of good faith edits aiming to improve the article. I think it adds to the article to learn about the different types of actors. Your reversion was in my opinion not appropriate. Tagging the sections and working to improve them would be more appropriate.

Hello, you should not assume anything about a Wikipedian that you know nothing about. I have worked for the inclusion of large amounts of material over the years. First, the edits were deceptively labeled as "copy edting" when they were nothing of the sort. Next, only some of them were sourced. The yammering on about unions is not relevant to the article and the info does not apply equally to different countries. I see that rather than follow WP:BRD you have restored your version. IMO large sections of the article now read like a junior high school essay. There are fragmented sentences and other sections that are almost unreadable. While it wont be the worst article on WikiP it has definitely gone down a notch or two from what it was so I will be taking it off my watchlist.

(talk page stalker) The following has been copy 'n' pasted from OnBeyondZebrax under "Pet peeves" ...

* Excessively detailed plot summaries: In some articles about action movies, some editors provide a detailed account of every scene, rather than giving an overview of the plot. Instead of getting the "big picture" (e.g., "Rambo overpowers the sentries and makes his way to the fortress"), we hear reams of detail about every weapon that is used, every shot that is fired, every clip of ammo that is loaded, every twist and turn, and about the gory demise of every anonymous ski-masked villain.

Is this not a contradiction of their recent activity on Actor? Remember to consider the after effects of bloat!

Hey, just to let you know, I've added some more reference that explicitly says that Nuggets are still holding the rights to those players. Feel free to remove them if you think the references aren't adequate or the information aren't relevant enough. However, since the section is on every NBA teams page, I think the Nuggets article needs one too. I agree that in the past the term "International rights" are blatantly misleading and incorrect, not to mention that they were unreferenced. That's why I've changed the section title, add more information to explain what it is, and add references to help support the information. However, sometimes the news about the draft rights about these players (including information about when or will they enter the NBA) are difficult to find unless they are popular players or first-round picks (such as Ricky Rubio and Nikola Mirotić). I agree that players from 2003 Draft are unlikely to play in the NBA, but I just include them for completeness as technically their draft rights are still gonna be retained by the Nuggets until their retirements. — MT (talk) 04:48, 18 April 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-04-18T04:48:00.000Z","author":"Martin tamb","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Martin_tamb-2014-04-18T04:48:00.000Z-Retained_draft_rights","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2014-04-18T05:55:00.000Z-Martin_tamb-2014-04-18T04:48:00.000Z"],"displayName":"MT"}}-->

Thanks for your note and your thoroughness in what you are trying to do. I do not see the references stating that they have the rights to those player from 2003. I can't find anything in the bargaining agreement that these are retroactive. So I have removed them.

No problem, I did not take any offense at all. On the other hand, it's actually really nice to see someone regularly maintaining the Nuggets article, a lot of other teams don't have that and sometimes a lot of vandalism remain undetected for months. Anyway, can you elaborate more on "a collective bargaining agreement from 2011 does not apply retroactively"? From what I understand, there is no evidence that the draft rights prior to 2011 are retained past 2011 due to the new collective bargaining agreement ratified in 2011. Did I understand it correctly? If that so, then I need to revisit all the other articles or find out more about the bargaining agreement. — MT (talk) 13:22, 18 April 2014 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-04-18T13:22:00.000Z","author":"Martin tamb","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Martin_tamb-2014-04-18T13:22:00.000Z-MarnetteD-2014-04-18T05:55:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"MT"}}-->

Jeepers I was looking at this late last night and I thought that this ref that you used was a recap of the collective bargaining agreement put out by the NBA. My point is that I did not think that anything agreed on in 2011 that was different (or new) from what had been the norm before would be apply to something done in 2003. Ugh, I can't tell if this makes things clearer or not :( I think that the thing you may need to do is, if you have players in these tables from 9 or more years ago, you will want to see if they are still playing somewhere. If not they probably should be removed from the various articles. Now this is just one editors suggestion. You could ask for more input at the Wikipedia:WikiProject National Basketball Association.

Always enjoy seeing him in films much earlier as I originally only knew him from Octopussy. I didn't like Gigi but I liked him in it. I saw The V.I.P.s yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. That's a good quote I think and very true, I can't think of a more suave actor. He really was the stereotypical tall dark and handsome type wasn't he, a "slick son of a bitch" as I'd call him LOL. Slightly creepy, a bit like Uri Gellar actually! I don't think his type would have appealed much to Liz Taylor though, they really lacked chemistry in the film! Unlike her and Burton however!!

Thanks for your message Dr B. I think that he is excellent in Count Dracula (1977 film). This version of the story stays closer to Stoker's book than most. Back in the mid-80s he was performing in a touring version of Gigi and I got to see it when it was here in Denver. It was a wonderful production. A few days later, on Sunday, I was walking into a movie theater that was in my neighborhood to see Carmen (1984 film) and I almost bumped into him as he was leaving. I've always thought that it was neat that he wanted to get out and see the film rather than just rest in his hotel on his day off. Cheers.

Just got home from a quite extraordinary production of Shakespeare that I'm sure you'll appreciate. It's a little hard to explain, but basically, the play is about four people who meet up in a remote cabin. Their relationship to one another is not known at first, nor why they are there. Anyway, they have certain discussions, alliances form and are broken, there's a plot twist or two, one of them is killed and the other three all agree to keep it a secret forever. Okay. What does this have to do with Shakespeare? Get this. The entire play is composed using dialogue from Shakespeare's plays. Every single line in the play is a quote. I had thought, going in, that it was going to be a kind of montage thing, but no, it actually makes sense. They have real conversations, and after about 20 minutes or so, you find yourself forgetting the novelty of it, and actually watching for the story and the characters. And, like I say, there's even a couple of plot twists. It works about 90% of the time. A couple of lines of dialogue don't really gel together, but by and large it's perfect. Amazing stuff. And the last line, after they've agreed to keep the secret? Of course, "when shall we three meet again?" It's on in a tiny little theatre in Wicklow, only holds about 30 people, doesn't even have a website. And the writer of the play is also the director, the lighting supervisor and one of the actors! I was talking to him afterwards, telling him this should be on in The Abbey and The Globe, but he's not interested. Said he's been writing it on and off for fifteen years and was just glad to finally get it to the stage! Wonderful stuff.

Thanks so much for this message. What a wonderful experience!! This is a great example of how the magic of the theatre can happen as easily on a small stage as it does on a large one. I experienced this many years ago when a little theatre in my neighborhood combined Eugene O’Neill's Hughie with Pirandello's The Man With the Flower in His Mouth. While the two one-acts are quite different the setting of both of them at the reception desk of a small hotel and using the same actors led to an extraordinary theatre experience.
