Hi
Thanks for your comments and edits on Joseph Gatt.
I've fixed the internal errors bar one. Can you take a quick look for me and determine what I've done wrong? It's reference 11 (Pulse).
Thanks again,

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thank you. ·Add§hore· Talk/ Cont 10:01, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh please develop the lists as much as you can. I initially started them all but I only managed to do a few from the 1930s - in fact I was the one who started The Vicar of Veljby and the others ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 19:45, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
But see American films of 1949 etc for what I expect for table formatting. The top one should be formatted so it fits in the gap between the margin and the template but the ones underneath are different ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 19:50, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks ah yes I started all of the film lists around the world. I'm sorry I haven't had the time to dedicate to developing everyone of them fully. I've even been developing countries like Italy by year too like Italian films of 1950 , South Korean films of 2005, Bollywood films of 1972 etc. No actually I started the George Scheevort article and added some of his films from the 1930s. Seeing danish wikipedia it has like articles on every single one of the actors in the films so I thought I'd add a few. Some of them happened to have the same actors in though. If somebody is actively devleoping them there is more of a chance I'll continue with it, I think its fascinating getting these articles on here in english and learning about a cinema that very few of us know about. Most important thing is that all of the feature films released by year are added to the lists. Then articles on actors/directors can be filled in. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:18, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Well a site which caters for just about everything is naturally a highly attractive and luring one. I've just started Next Stop Paradise and recognized a few of the actors I started before in it. The more films that are red linked in the lists the quicker they can get started. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:39, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
If you are interested WP:Films is always on the look out for new task forces. If you would be interested in a work group assigned to develop danish cinema properly I would be willing to support you ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:44, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

William Keane redirects to
Bil Keane. The disambiguation notice is appropriate. Alternatively,
William Keane can redirect to the bishop and the bishop's page can have a disambig tag. But the way it is now just doesn't work if someone types in William Keane and is looking for the bishop. Nevermind, I'm going to make this a full disambig page.

According to the website, the Bodil awards has a category of "Bedste ikke-europæiske film". In 1969, it was own by "Sangen om vejen af Satyajit Ray". But Bodil Award for Best Non-American Film does not list it. can you please see to it?

I had no idea that Aaron McGruder struck out against Bil Keane and the others in a New Yorker article in 2004. The incident in question that McGruder took offense to ocurred in 2000 and it is listed in his biography on IMBD as the starting point of his rivalry with Keane (that's how I initially found out about it). I agree that it's a non-issue for Keane [no article or website I found had any criticism towards McGruder, although one article came as close as I've ever seen to Keane criticizing other comic strip artists and a complaint about the changing landscape in general ( http://www.americancatholic.org/messenger/nov2001/feature1.asp)], but McGruder sees it very differently. I found a working link to the New Yorker article, so I was going to add it to the McGruder article, but it appears to already be used (but not in context of how he feels about other comic artists). His article could use a little sprucing up, so maybe a new section on his one-sided rivalry with Keane can be added. I need to spend some time reading the article, because it appears, at first blush, to be critical of the contemporary African-American comics that were being published before he came on the scene, and some of that might be worth mentioning in his entry as well.

Why did you remove the placeholder/image-request image for Bil Keane? It's commonly used to get people's attention that an image is wanted. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs)/( e-mail) 11:37, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Since you added the "controversy" tag there has been no discussion on the talk page. And nobody has responded to my request for discussion, so it's impossible to achieve a consensus. I did revert a major rewrite of the article which was very one-sided but the author of the rewrite hasn't protested about the revert. I'm not sure now how to proceed. As the trial is now over, I'd like to finish work on the article so that it reflects the NPOV policy. -- Mia-etol ( talk) 07:02, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

I am desperately seeking for people to help complete those lists. You'll find most of the odd years e.g 1973 1975 etc are not completed and contain many foreign films which should be rmeoved asap. The lists were drawn using the main categories this is why some foreign titles may remain. Please please help clean them up and fill in the tables to good use. I did a great deal of work on setting them up and filled in pages like American films of 1936 etc but found it too large to completely do by myself.

Hello, you deleted my article about "Nyrva Dragonrhyne" - I did not get a chance to add the pictures and other materials to make the article "worth posting". Why do you allow posts like ones about movies and stuff if you will not allow posts like this about artist's fictional characters? (Do a search on Google for "Nyrva Dragonrhyne" it comes up a lot!) This is not my character. But I know the artist and he gave me permission to post the article.
Please help. Thanks!

I have removed the prod-template from this article since I don't agree that it meets the criteria for deletion. I don't agree that the OR and style concerns are severe enough to consider deletion instead of improvement. Also the article does have sources but lacks in-line citations.

Hi. We now have Category:Danish film stubs so can you go through Cat:Danish films and help stub tag them as {{ Denmark-film-stub}}. Cheers The Bald One White cat 12:01, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
OK I;ve done up to The Five Obstructions starting with A. I'll leave you to follow on as i se eyou;ve started. Keep up the good work on Danish film BTW. Its looking better than it ever has although a massive amount of work required. One thing though. Can you avoid using tables for cast sections. See Casino Royale (2006 film) as an example of a cast seciton for FAs. Cheers The Bald One White cat 14:17, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Nice. Yes I agree. We have had numerous discussions about it at WP:Films though and the consensus seems to be in favour of against tables. And might I say what a fine job you;ve done on that article, that cast section is exactly what I mean. If only we could develop all 1910s films the same way. Glad you also are an editor like myself who thinks content is of prime importance than the stupid ANI and village pump dramas and wiki lawyering we can on here. Look forward to working with you at the the new task force. Regards The Bald One White cat 14:54, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
What I want to do eventually is to have lists for eahc of the years in Danish film in detail like we have have with e.g Template:CinemaofItaly etc. The Bald One White cat 19:21, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Well if there are only 10 notable films a year then there is indeed no need to split. I had anticpated there would be nearer 50 notable films from each year. Perhaps the industry wasn't as big as I thought The Bald One White cat 20:13, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Yup thanks. I agree to about the films. If we have 500-700 good articles on Danish films eventually this will be beyond anybody's expectations. If you have book sources, this is great news The Bald One White cat 21:08, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Will do - I'll be working on this over the next few days. Lugnuts ( talk) 19:40, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
One thing though, I;m sure not why a large number of those films have been de-linked from her article. WHat is the criteria for blanking them out? What constitutes notability? If the film is well liked or not? FOr instance Familien Olsen, the 1940 film seems to have some notability. Directed by Lau Lauritzen and Alice O'Fredericks, both notable directors, screenwriteen by Fleming Lynge who was a noted screenwriter and the film stars both Osvald Helmuth and Ib Schønberg who was noted actors?? The Bald One White cat 21:39, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi. Yes I created that template and intended adding them until Lugnuts kindly helped out. I;ve stubbed a few actors. Please could you expand Else Højgaard as asoon as you can? It just had a speedy delete tag placed on it. It has a full bio in Danish at the official site The Bald One White cat 21:32, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
I;ve created ASA Film. Can you expand it? Also see Yak racing if you like yaks The Bald One White cat 17:58, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
Nice. I'm sure we'll manage but come back asap!!. Danish cinema and Nordic cinema on wiki though could realy use a power boost though in starting articles which Lugnuts and I are grand masters of on wikipedia! The Bald One White cat 21:21, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
The color of some of the film posters it has to be said are pretty shocking. Check out Fodboldpræsten. Urggh its like a snotty pea soup color! The Bald One White cat 21:23, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry to bother you, especially at this late stage but I was wondering if I could get your opinion on my conduct during this discussion. Brief history: when I first started contributing to AfDs I had a tendency to get over involved and did not always act in a calm and polite manner towards other editors. In the previous months - since probably the beginning of this year I have contributed less to AfDs - concentrating instead on other areas of the encyclopaedia - and have tried to ensure I meet all the expected standards of user conduct in all of my contributions. This discussion was the first one for a while where after leaving my initial comment (or in this case making the nomination) I was then involved in continued further discussion where I disagreed with the other editors (including yourself). I was just wondering if you felt that I made my opinions known in a clear and civil manner and whether you - at any stage - felt that I was harassing you. I think I have come a long way since some of my earlier missteps and would like to make sure I don't fall back into negative and unproductive editing habits.
I'd also like to apologise for the incompleteness of my nominating statement in the AfD, since the issue of notability can be contentious I have more recently liked to base my arguments more on the core inclusion policies (such as verifiability and no original research). The points you made during the discussion showed me that this will not always be possible.
Finally I'd like to thank you for your informed and enlightening comments about local publications, you have definitely changed the way I look at them in regard to how they can be used as references on Wikipedia. Regards, Guest9999 ( talk) 23:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for your suggeestion/change for the cateogries of this new page. Once I learn how to add cateogries properly, I will add ones for "interpreting associations" and "interpreting" if there aren't any already. "New Zealand Sign Language" as a cateory, while not completely accurate for the substance of this page, is certainly more ideal than "Deafness" and is a relevant topice. "Deafness" is an audiological term that will stick out like a sore thumb to anyone well-versed in Deaf culture(s) and sign language interpreting matters. If you have time to change it, I think that would be appropriate; otherwise I can once I learn more about being a Wikipedian! Cheers. Aleniboy ( talk) 00:10, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

My current project on Wikipedia is increasing the quality and quantity of copyediting. We have people who are good with AP Stylebook and Websters, but we have very few people participating in article reviews who have many years of professional copyediting experience, and I'm wondering ... why? Some copyeditors have switched jobs, or are retired, or aren't sufficiently challenged, and wouldn't mind doing a little volunteer copyediting, and it would be nice to have more professionals in the mix. If you're interested in doing more, great; if not, this is just an informal survey, and I'd appreciate your ideas on what would attract more professional copyeditors.

Hello CactusWriter. Of all those involved in Project Denmark, you seem to be one of the few to have a real interest in culture, especially the cinema. Over the past two or three weeks I've been doing quite a bit of work on Culture of Denmark and several related articles. I would much appreciate your contributions, comments, corrections to the article, especially the section on the cinema. And if you are interested in art, take a look at Art of Denmark too. Thanks in advance.- Ipigott ( talk) 16:45, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh please develop the lists as much as you can. I initially started them all but I only managed to do a few from the 1930s - in fact I was the one who started The Vicar of Veljby and the others ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 19:45, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
But see American films of 1949 etc for what I expect for table formatting. The top one should be formatted so it fits in the gap between the margin and the template but the ones underneath are different ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 19:50, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks ah yes I started all of the film lists around the world. I'm sorry I haven't had the time to dedicate to developing everyone of them fully. I've even been developing countries like Italy by year too like Italian films of 1950 , South Korean films of 2005, Bollywood films of 1972 etc. No actually I started the George Scheevort article and added some of his films from the 1930s. Seeing danish wikipedia it has like articles on every single one of the actors in the films so I thought I'd add a few. Some of them happened to have the same actors in though. If somebody is actively devleoping them there is more of a chance I'll continue with it, I think its fascinating getting these articles on here in english and learning about a cinema that very few of us know about. Most important thing is that all of the feature films released by year are added to the lists. Then articles on actors/directors can be filled in. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:18, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Well a site which caters for just about everything is naturally a highly attractive and luring one. I've just started Next Stop Paradise and recognized a few of the actors I started before in it. The more films that are red linked in the lists the quicker they can get started. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ $1,000,000? 20:39, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

William Keane redirects to
Bil Keane. The disambiguation notice is appropriate. Alternatively,
William Keane can redirect to the bishop and the bishop's page can have a disambig tag. But the way it is now just doesn't work if someone types in William Keane and is looking for the bishop. Nevermind, I'm going to make this a full disambig page.

According to the website, the Bodil awards has a category of "Bedste ikke-europæiske film". In 1969, it was own by "Sangen om vejen af Satyajit Ray". But Bodil Award for Best Non-American Film does not list it. can you please see to it?

I had no idea that Aaron McGruder struck out against Bil Keane and the others in a New Yorker article in 2004. The incident in question that McGruder took offense to ocurred in 2000 and it is listed in his biography on IMBD as the starting point of his rivalry with Keane (that's how I initially found out about it). I agree that it's a non-issue for Keane [no article or website I found had any criticism towards McGruder, although one article came as close as I've ever seen to Keane criticizing other comic strip artists and a complaint about the changing landscape in general ( http://www.americancatholic.org/messenger/nov2001/feature1.asp)], but McGruder sees it very differently. I found a working link to the New Yorker article, so I was going to add it to the McGruder article, but it appears to already be used (but not in context of how he feels about other comic artists). His article could use a little sprucing up, so maybe a new section on his one-sided rivalry with Keane can be added. I need to spend some time reading the article, because it appears, at first blush, to be critical of the contemporary African-American comics that were being published before he came on the scene, and some of that might be worth mentioning in his entry as well.

Since you added the "controversy" tag there has been no discussion on the talk page. And nobody has responded to my request for discussion, so it's impossible to achieve a consensus. I did revert a major rewrite of the article which was very one-sided but the author of the rewrite hasn't protested about the revert. I'm not sure now how to proceed.

I am desperately seeking for people to help complete those lists. You'll find most of the odd years e.g 1973 1975 etc are not completed and contain many foreign films which should be rmeoved asap. The lists were drawn using the main categories this is why some foreign titles may remain. Please please help clean them up and fill in the tables to good use. I did a great deal of work on setting them up and filled in pages like American films of 1936 etc but found it too large to completely do by myself.

Hello, you deleted my article about "Nyrva Dragonrhyne" - I did not get a chance to add the pictures and other materials to make the article "worth posting". Why do you allow posts like ones about movies and stuff if you will not allow posts like this about artist's fictional characters? (Do a search on Google for "Nyrva Dragonrhyne" it comes up a lot!) This is not my character. But I know the artist and he gave me permission to post the article.

OK I;ve done up to The Five Obstructions starting with A. I'll leave you to follow on as i se eyou;ve started. Keep up the good work on Danish film BTW. Its looking better than it ever has although a massive amount of work required. One thing though. Can you avoid using tables for cast sections. See Casino Royale (2006 film) as an example of a cast seciton for FAs. Cheers The Bald One White cat 14:17, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Nice. Yes I agree. We have had numerous discussions about it at WP:Films though and the consensus seems to be in favour of against tables. And might I say what a fine job you;ve done on that article, that cast section is exactly what I mean. If only we could develop all 1910s films the same way. Glad you also are an editor like myself who thinks content is of prime importance than the stupid ANI and village pump dramas and wiki lawyering we can on here. Look forward to working with you at the the new task force. Regards The Bald One White cat 14:54, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
What I want to do eventually is to have lists for eahc of the years in Danish film in detail like we have have with e.g Template:CinemaofItaly etc. The Bald One White cat 19:21, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Well if there are only 10 notable films a year then there is indeed no need to split. I had anticpated there would be nearer 50 notable films from each year. Perhaps the industry wasn't as big as I thought The Bald One White cat 20:13, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Yup thanks. I agree to about the films. If we have 500-700 good articles on Danish films eventually this will be beyond anybody's expectations. If you have book sources, this is great news The Bald One White cat 21:08, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

One thing though, I;m sure not why a large number of those films have been de-linked from her article. WHat is the criteria for blanking them out? What constitutes notability? If the film is well liked or not? FOr instance Familien Olsen, the 1940 film seems to have some notability. Directed by Lau Lauritzen and Alice O'Fredericks, both notable directors, screenwriteen by Fleming Lynge who was a noted screenwriter and the film stars both Osvald Helmuth and Ib Schønberg who was noted actors?? The Bald One White cat 21:39, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi. Yes I created that template and intended adding them until Lugnuts kindly helped out. I;ve stubbed a few actors. Please could you expand Else Højgaard as asoon as you can? It just had a speedy delete tag placed on it. It has a full bio in Danish at the official site The Bald One White cat 21:32, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry to bother you, especially at this late stage but I was wondering if I could get your opinion on my conduct during this discussion. Brief history: when I first started contributing to AfDs I had a tendency to get over involved and did not always act in a calm and polite manner towards other editors. In the previous months - since probably the beginning of this year I have contributed less to AfDs - concentrating instead on other areas of the encyclopaedia - and have tried to ensure I meet all the expected standards of user conduct in all of my contributions. This discussion was the first one for a while where after leaving my initial comment (or in this case making the nomination) I was then involved in continued further discussion where I disagreed with the other editors (including yourself). I was just wondering if you felt that I made my opinions known in a clear and civil manner and whether you - at any stage - felt that I was harassing you. I think I have come a long way since some of my earlier missteps and would like to make sure I don't fall back into negative and unproductive editing habits.
I'd also like to apologise for the incompleteness of my nominating statement in the AfD, since the issue of notability can be contentious I have more recently liked to base my arguments more on the core inclusion policies (such as verifiability and no original research). The points you made during the discussion showed me that this will not always be possible.
Finally I'd like to thank you for your informed and enlightening comments about local publications, you have definitely changed the way I look at them in regard to how they can be used as references on Wikipedia. Regards, Guest9999 ( talk) 23:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for your suggeestion/change for the cateogries of this new page. Once I learn how to add cateogries properly, I will add ones for "interpreting associations" and "interpreting" if there aren't any already. "New Zealand Sign Language" as a cateory, while not completely accurate for the substance of this page, is certainly more ideal than "Deafness" and is a relevant topice. "Deafness" is an audiological term that will stick out like a sore thumb to anyone well-versed in Deaf culture(s) and sign language interpreting matters. If you have time to change it, I think that would be appropriate; otherwise I can once I learn more about being a Wikipedian! Cheers. Aleniboy ( talk) 00:10, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Logos for information. — User:CactusWriter 09:22, 16 November 2008 (UTC) I did not know I was doing vandalism on Wikipedia, how come I edit Wikipedia? Becuase I'm helping Wikipedia! I did not know that adding a logo was "bad" for Wi kipedia! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.64.178 ( talk) 20:36, 27 November 2008
Thanks for uploading Image:10ToMidnight.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 05:12, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
My current project on Wikipedia is increasing the quality and quantity of copyediting. We have people who are good with AP Stylebook and Websters, but we have very few people participating in article reviews who have many years of professional copyediting experience, and I'm wondering ... why? Some copyeditors have switched jobs, or are retired, or aren't sufficiently challenged, and wouldn't mind doing a little volunteer copyediting, and it would be nice to have more professionals in the mix. If you're interested in doing more, great; if not, this is just an informal survey, and I'd appreciate your ideas on what would attract more professional copyeditors.

A little while back, at the beginning of November, I had said that if you ever were considering adminship, that I would love to support and/or nominate you. Do you have any interest in pursuing it? either way ( talk) 17:12, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
Hi. I notice that you seem to have used one too many ~ here, omitting your name from the timestamp equation. I've added it for clarity's sake, since I'm your follow-up voter, but wanted to point it out in case you'd like to remove my note and clarify it yourself. :) -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:55, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
Nice edit - thanks. Springnuts ( talk) 20:09, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello CactusWriter. Of all those involved in Project Denmark, you seem to be one of the few to have a real interest in culture, especially the cinema. Over the past two or three weeks I've been doing quite a bit of work on Culture of Denmark and several related articles. I would much appreciate your contributions, comments, corrections to the article, especially the section on the cinema. And if you are interested in art, take a look at Art of Denmark too. Thanks in advance.- Ipigott ( talk) 16:45, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
