I'm no whizz with wikipedia, so i'm probably wrong about this, but did you read the source supporting the 1964 date? it specifically tackles the ambiguity which mckee apparently 'puts right'. is that not overriding in any way?

Hi Marnette, I notice you reverted an edit I made to defaultsort Talk:Laurence Olivier, and I need a little help if you can. I added the defaultsort so that the name would appear in alphabetical order on the page Category:Top-priority biography (actors and filmmakers) articles and when I added the defaultsort it appeared correctly under "O". Now that the defaultsort is removed, it shows on the category page under "L" for Laurence. Do you know how to fix this? I thought the "listas" parameter would work, but it doesn't seem to, and I can't figure it out.

Also, Regarding the change to the LSU piece, it was redundant. You have a page solely for the purpose of the 2007 season results, then, on ONLY ONE team on the rivalry page, you add the score. Why? What is the purpose of adding the score for one team, and the results from the past season, when there is a whole page dedicated to that information. The answer is, you did it because you were trolling me. Going to every page I edited and reverting it.

The messages that you have left here and the blanking your talk page shows that you are childish in the extreme. A look at the pages involved show that the info that you removed was not redundant.

Talking to you is like talking to a brick wall. However you want to paint the fact that you "followed" my edits around, while knowing nothing of the subject to which I was writing is pretty frightening considering what this site is intended to do. There is no "hiding" of facts, there were 2, yes 2, places that the score to last years game can be found. Neither score explains why they are even a rival. While the 2 BIGGEST rivals are left without scores and thoroughly explained to why it is a rivalry. If you want to get a chip on your shoulder about everyone that doesn't see eye to eye with you, then that's on you. Next thing you know someone may be messing with your edits for some bogus reason. Furthermore, the reason I "cleared" my page was to get all the "warnings" you sent me regarding the same article to go away. As you and I both know, that page is not really "gone" and may still be referenced at any time. May God bless your weekend.

The warnings were well deserved as you were not following wikipolicy and lets remember what your first two edits were [1] and [2] both of which are heavy duty vandalism. Your next edit was to tell Waggers to let you continue to vandalize pages. Your next set of edits included the blanking of info on several pages without any explanation of why the info was being removed. This is also considered vandalism. Serial vandals have to be followed, their edits reversed and warnings placed on their page to have them cease vandalizng. When you finally used an edit summary then your edit was left alone. I was not the only person to leave a message on your page and one of the ones I left included a link to a page where you could begin to learn how to edit properly on wikipedia. But, rather than take that option, it seems you need to continue to cry and moan here, thus, creating more wikidrama then you are worth. Please also note that wikipedia requires outside verifiable sources for new edits and, as yet, you have made no edit that includes these. Thus, other editors may also revert your edits until you learn how to do this. Hopefully you will contribute something to the project one day - but it seems that it will not be this day. Please take your moaning elsewhere in future.

Re, this edit, I agree that your version is better than the one you reverted. Actually the full-text Branagh used (a conflation of Q2 and F) is (with minor variation) the one that you'd expect to see at a theatre if you went to see a (comparatively rare) full text production of Hamlet.

• Thanks. Yes, my collection of Shakespeare films is ever-expanding - but I'm keen to add that DVD to it ever since I discovered that my VHS version has a shorter running time than the theatrical one. I happened to be in London the week it premiered, and I remember giggling at the sight of a skull that was very obviously Ken Dodd's (I'd been a fan his of when I was a small kid: as you may know he has famously odd teeth). I was puzzled by the fact that the scene wasn't on the video: but now I think I know where it went!

Hi. Responding to your request for a citation regarding the disallowed use of IMDb as a reference source:

Wikipedia: Reliable sources - Are wikis reliable sources specifies that wikis are not allowed as reference sources. IMDb falls under that definition as it has solely user-generated content, and, as noted elsewhere at Wikipedia:Reliable sources, IMDb does not "have adequate levels of editorial oversight or author credibility and lack assured persistence."

When an admin changes an article and cites an OTRS Ticket (see my comment on the talk page) it is an exceedingly bad idea to revert them without discussing with them first. OTRS generally means that Wikipedia has recieved an external communication about something and the admin is responding to this. Until you have discussed this with the admin you will not have the full facts to properly judge the circumstances and reinserting complained about material could create a problem for the project. Please do not do this again.

First off , how was anyone to tell that you were an admin as neither your edit summary nor your note BJ's talk page listed you as such. Even if there was some indication that you were an admin that would not seem to be that important as admins are not omniscient. The recent Archtransit saga is a cautionary tale of why the term admin does not translate into reliable wikipedia editor (please please please do not get me wrong I am not equating you with that editor.) As to Barry Jackson's page WP:AGF would seem to dictate that, if we aren't going to rely on what has already been posted in a given article, that it is important to have evidence other than disliking IMDb as to why a particular item should be changed. Neither you nor I know where the editor who posted this date originally got it from. What is perplexing about your note to me is that is does not acknowledge that I went and found sources other than IMDb, added them to the article and noted them in my edit summaries, just after the edit that you have chosen to admonish me for. It is important to note that I have found IMDB to be more reliable than most sources on the net when it comes to actor bios - there is no better example then IMDb's having Helen Mirren's actual birthplace (Chiswick) correct when several of us who watchlisted her page were defending one (Leigh-on-Sea) that was cited in numerous interviews during her run of awards last year. I have seen little evidence that IMDb's cast lists, crew lists or bio pages can be proven as unreliable. Nothing that I can find at either the filmprojects or the biography projects pages seem to indicate this - although I might have missed them and I apologize if I have please just point me to these new guidelines. Along these same lines, if there is a cabal here at wikipedia that has decided that IMDb is no longer reliable (and I have no evidence of this except that after after 3 yrs of editing here I have two messages in a day stating this) then we need to delete most of wikipedia's articles on films as all of the cast and production crew lists as well as the release dates and numerous other encyclopedic items noted come from IMDb. I am happy to apologize for the curtness of this message as I am sure that it is more confrontational than you wish but I would suggest that, if anything that I have done is so extraordinarily out of line, that you bring in other editors and admins from the biography and film projects to look at what has been done and if a consensus is reached that I am in error I am willing to accept their findings.

Hi, Marnette. The reason for my note on Barry Lyndon having six actors from Clockwork Orange (which I could have made more clear) is that Stanley Kubrick has a particular penchant for often working with the same actors over again in both supporting and lead roles (two films with Kirk Douglas, two with Peter Sellers, three with Philip Stone in supporting roles), so having six actors from Clockwork Orange in Barry Lyndon is part of a pattern, and the Orange/Lyndon overlap of six actors is a sort of record-holder in Kubrick's oeuvre. I'm not fully convinced my contribution here was absolutely necessary, but perhaps there is a way to reword it to make it more noteworthy. I was generally assuming all readers of the article knew Lyndon was Kubrick's film right after Clockwork and that he frequently re-uses actors. Perhaps that was unwarranted.

MarnetteD, I was not offended in the least. What I was doing is soliciting advice if there were any way to "frame" (introduce) the info to make it Wiki-kosher. I am a Wiki-newbie (as of 8 months ago). I have made 20-odd contributions to Wikipedia in the last year, 3 of which have been zapped on the basis of no original research, so I'm sort of figuring out what to do (or not do as the case may be). A few other notes I have added about Kubrick films here and there remain intact, so I'm trying to decide what does or does not constitute original research.
I have actually read that because the cast for Lyndon was unusually large, Kubrick was especially keen on choosing actors that he knew he could work with. So if I can track down that citation, and frame it as such, I may re-introduce the info, but I'm not in a rush.

dear marnetteD, as always with ethusiasts/amateur actors/sincere people,the historic reality becomes hagiolatrous. i worked for the rsc, as an actor and understudy (tim wylton, michael williams, michael jayston, hugh sullivan etc etc) from 1964 until the end of the 1966 season (3 seasons), and later at the rsc touring group. i was one of the very few people who regularly beat john barton at chess, in the RSC greenroom (he did not play bridge, which was the then rsc game). it was all ferociously hard work for very little pay and little acknowledgement. your reporting is hagiographic. please tone it down. i also knew t.church very well. he was a nice person and a chum, but just one of the rsc company like all of us then. you overwrite it all. kind regards, bruce condell bruce (talk) 23:39, 29 March 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-03-29T23:39:00.000Z","author":"Bruce Condell","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bruce_Condell-2008-03-29T23:39:00.000Z-please_try_harder","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2008-03-30T05:26:00.000Z-Bruce_Condell-2008-03-29T23:39:00.000Z"],"displayName":"bruce"}}-->

I have absolutely no idea what you are going on about. The only things that I have added to Mr Church's article are roles that he performed and the link to the obit of his death that was in the Denver Post.

Hi. I have been doing a bit less editing these days, I agree. The concerns over fiction restrictions is one, but I've also been soured by the whole image policy thing and a few other issues. The main reason I don't do as much editing, though, is more because of workload in the real world preventing me from spending as much time as I used to. I've been playing around with some of the "Wikia" sites of late, and depending who is in charge some of them are a bit more lenient than others when it comes to things like demanding every new line by cross-referenced by three major sources, etc. The one I do a lot of work with these days is the Bionic Wiki. I've also done some work with the Muppet and Terminator wikis as well. 23skidoo (talk) 15:16, 7 April 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-07T15:16:00.000Z","author":"23skidoo","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-23skidoo-2008-04-07T15:16:00.000Z-Editing","replies":[]}}-->

I don't think an SSP report is necessary. If the account persists with this, I'd call that obvious enough for an immediate block (which I'll issue, since I've become an admin in the intervening months). I've also contacted Scrooby off-wiki (we had a surprisingly amiable correspondence not long after his block) to see if he's willing to 'fess up, or if he's prepared to swear on a stack of Bibles this time around too. As for Wknight, I believe he's retired or vanished or somesuch, although I could be mistaken.

Hi, MarnetteD, You reverted my edits to Talk:Seven_Samurai with the comment "not sure why any of this is here as it has nothing to do with this film and Heller isn't mentioned on the article paage". I added the information about the reasons Newman and Bernstein are not credited for the screenplay of The Magnificent Seven in response to duncan's comment that they were not credited because both were blacklisted. This was factually incorrect with regard to Newman; however, my speculation about Bernstein was just speculation, and I'm guessing that probably doesn't belong even on a Talk page (I'm new here). Hope this makes sense, and apologies if it doesn't. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.126.4.90 (talk) 04:26, 12 April 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-12T04:26:00.000Z","author":"76.126.4.90","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-76.126.4.90-2008-04-12T04:26:00.000Z-Edits_to_Talk:Seven_Samurai_(in_the_section_about_The_Magnificent_Seven)","replies":[]}}-->

I'm not trying to be contentious, but I don't understand your comment "you are still posting stuff that has nothing to do with this page or this film" in deleting a correction regarding the screenwriters of The Magnificent Seven from a Talk section about The Magnificent Seven. Duncan's point about the screenwriters of The Magnificent Seven is incorrect on its facts. Correcting that seemed to be on point for that section of the page.

You are doing fine, what I meant by commenting the reasons for inactive listings is to hide them so that they do not display.

Marnette, as you see I moved the bit about common actors in Kubrick films to the Kubrick page where I thought it would be more appropriate. You kept most of it, but again zapped the bit about 6 actors being in both ClocOran and BarrLynd. Is the problem that it is OR, or that it is not cited and as such non-verifiable? 5 of 6 are easy to catch with a really good eye. If it's the facticity that is at issue the six actors are Stephen Berkoff, Philip Stone, Godfrey Quigley, Patrick Magee, Pat Roach, and Anthony Sharp. Except for Sharp, they are all in fairly significant supporting roles in both films.

I actually omitted 2 actors from 2001 who show up in CO and BL respectively, because they seemed fairly insignificant to me.

As you can see, I made a grammar and spelling correction to your edit of my stuff. "worked" should be changed to "did work" not "did worked".

VERY SORRY I forgot to sign this post.

That discussion must produce a conclusion.

We originally asked "Should the addition of this box [example right] be allowed? Does the placeholder system and graphic image need to be improved to satisfy policies and guidelines for inclusion? Is it appropriate to some kinds of biographies, but not to others?" (See introduction).

Conclusions to centralized discussions are either marked as 'policy', 'guideline', 'endorsed', 'rejected', 'no consensus', or 'no change' etc. We should now decide for this discussion.

Hi. I'm a Japanese movie fan.

The correct japanese title of "Dersu Uzala" is "デルス・ウザーラ." The characters "Дерсу Узала" are not Japanese but Russian.

"八月の狂詩曲(Rhapsody in August)" is pronounced "Hachigatsu no rapusodī." "狂詩曲" is usually pronounced "kyōshikyoku." But the film maker had "狂詩曲" be pronounced "rapusodī(ラプソディー, rhapsody)." You can see examples on these pages (http://www.shochiku.co.jp/video/japanese/ha/dvd/da0721.html , http://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00006RD6F/).

I understand your point why Russian translation of the title is needed. But the head of the box is "Japanese." If you use Russian title in the box, the head has to be replaced with appropriate words. Though I agree that "Hachigatsu no kyōshikyoku" is widely recognized pronounciation of "八月の狂詩曲(Rhapsody in Augst)," that is not correct. Thank you for your kind advice.

Hi - thanks for the message, and you're welcome. Since the registered account hasn't edited for the last 90 minutes or so (as of now) I think you should file the SSP rather than report/block Hellorawr right now. I can't block him indefinitely based on one night's insanity, and it could be another 6 months before Hellorawr shows up again. An SSP will give us some background, if both IP and username are notified on their respective talk pages, even if s/he deletes them.

Hello! Re: your edit summary comments, it's my understanding the image of a film poster takes precedence over a DVD cover - at least that's what I've been told by editors who replaced the DVD images I added to infoboxes with poster images. Also, you removed most (but not all of) the flag images I had included in the infobox (I deleted the one you left to maintain continuity), a practice I started only when others starting adding them to infoboxes where I had excluded them. It's difficult to know what to do when so many opinions are bandied about!

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Partners in Crime (Doctor Who). Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Please also read WP:BRD and understand that you have to discuss now, not just revert again, that's the way the cycle works —TreasuryTag—t—c 20:51, 10 May 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-05-10T20:51:00.000Z","author":"TreasuryTag","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-TreasuryTag-2008-05-10T20:51:00.000Z-May_2008","replies":["c-MarnetteD-2008-05-10T21:52:00.000Z-TreasuryTag-2008-05-10T20:51:00.000Z"]}}-->

I don't think there's a firm policy or even a guideline with regards to TV films. Personally, I think TV films should go at "(film)" unless there's a theatrical film of the same name (case in point: Sweet Revenge (2001 TV film)). DVD films are at "(film)" rather than "(DVD film)" so why have "(TV film)"? Maybe we should start a discussion on the matter at WP:FILM.

Good point. I'd rather not open a can of worms with both projects!

Hello. I noticed that you reverted my corrections. According to the MoS WikiProject Film page, the desired order is: lead section, plot, production (subcategories: cast), distribution, reception (subcategories: box office performance, critical reception and awards, etc), influences (sometimes legacy), see also, and external links.

Currently, the order is incorrect. There's a lead section followed by a bullet point cast list (which is frowned upon), then two plot sections (also undesirable) and a series of other sections that don't conform with the project style guidelines.

Thank you for your words of support about The Stanley article. It's nice to know people are enjoying it.

No offense taken, in fact, I often run across the same issue. Yes, VeggieTales receives the same vandalism all the time, it seems. Today I saw the same telltale edit (always a different IP) and decided to start issuing single issue warnings about vandalism from multiple IPs. You'll know what I'm talking about when you see an edit that changes the first airing date to something with the word "predisent" (which is a terrible misspelling of "president"). They also have a tendency to use the DVD date instead of the TV date, which I'm not even convinced is accurate.

Well, maybe it was not clearly written. But, Wayne first rode the horse at the very end of True Grit, but fell so in love with the equine that he wouldn't let anyone else ride him, and by the time The Shootist came along, it was a condition for him doing the film, that 'Dollor got written into the script'. It was in the contract. And he did, when J.B. Books stables the horse with Moses Brown (Scatman Crothers; who I think is great in this, "That means I'm the best haggler!") and when he gives the horse to Gillom Rogers (Ron Howard). This was not in the book, but were changes from the book to the script on Wayne's insistence. So, it could be written more clearly. ~ WikiDon (talk) 22:40, 27 May 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-05-27T22:40:00.000Z","author":"WikiDon","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-WikiDon-2008-05-27T22:40:00.000Z-WikiDon-2008-05-27T22:27:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

You reversed my edit classing it as vandalism. There is a general consensus on Wikipedia to describe people from the UK as English, Scottish, Welsh, N. Irish as opposed to just British (if the information is available) as it is far more informative. Check the entry for any top name actor you can think of. It is indisputable that Peter Sellers is English - wouldn't you agree? If you look at the history of this particular article, he was correctly described as English for well over a year (28 October 2005 - 16 Aug 2007) with no problem until a single use account change it to British, then the user who is now reverting me reverted attempts by other users to change it back.

Your post here was far less than optimum in terms of civility, Marnette. Characterizing the edits of two fellow editors ("In the long run I am not sure what GA and FA status means other than to protect an article from the talons of TTN and Eusebius") is both unpleasant and uncivil, and is widely seen a s a personal attack on those two users. I would suggest that you re-edit your comments to striek out those statements, so as to backtrack an unpleasant tone.
With respect, I think you misunderstand what FA articles are, and would invite you to perhaps read them as examples not only of good writing, but of good writing created within a crucible of (mostly) polite editorial cooperation. Personal attacks do not show that you are more clever than the people you are attacking; it simply delineates you from them as attacker and attacked.

I will not be changing anything. The editors in question have done widespread damage to wikipedia. The two editors mention have made massive attacks on numerous editors here at wikipedia. One result of this being that TTN was topic banned. TTN has also been caught trying to evade the ban.

Forgive me, but while I understand what you were talking about (at least with TTN; Eusebius has a clean block log), taking pot shots at them doesn't make you better; it instead sinks you to the level of someone who takes cheap shots. I am sure you wouldn't want to be characterized as such. You may not care, but if you consider the reactions of those who are relatively new to the project who see your comments and consider you someone who will make personal attacks against users who aren't even present to defend themselves, and it would not make them want to offer you the benefit of good faith.

As well, I guess I am going to have to agree to disagree with you on your assessment of FA-quality articles, except to note that strong opinions against FA doesn't inspire confidence when we are all trying to render the articles into FA-quality examples. Might I propose that if you have significant concerns about how FA articles are adjudicated, you might wish to express those concerns constructively in the appropriate forum?

I can but agree, that this editor's style and edit notes are far, far too aggresive. I was about to put a similar coaching note here and noticed this debate - I was not surprised! Having cleaned up a poor article, I feel like I have been bullied. Marnette, you seem to want to add positively to the project, but the edit summaries, notes and even TalkPage messages from your edit record are just too attack orientated and resultantly wholly un-cooperative in style. You seem happy to quote guidelines and other wiki points of reference, so perhaps a brief period of time spent reading WP:5P and WP:AGF would help. I have noticed some good editors get to enamoured with vandal chasing go the same way, and it would be a pity for the whole project if you went further down this path.

Just because I politely point out the wikipedia policies that you are violating you feel bullied. Well, you could always start a blog to whine on.
