Hey Darkwarrior, did you pass Saw 3D for GAN? GamerPro64 ( talk) 00:36, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
I just noticed it passed. I knew it was good article, but I was prepared to fix any problems that it may have had. I had been working on since before Saw 3D started filming (GroundZero helped). :) About the picture issue you brought up. You think it's really too crowded? :( I don't want to remove the Cary picture.. maybe James and Leigh? — Mike Allen 03:50, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
I know what you're trying to do, but it doesn't work. I'm seeing at 80% the same thing that you're seeing at 100%. A gap between the first line and the table. This will happen depending on screen size / resolution because of the infobox on the right. It looks pretty weird when the main table only goes 3/4 of the way across the page though! Try making your browser window smaller to emulate this. The problem (and to be honest, it's not a major one - purely aesthetic) is that if the two tables bump into each other, it puts the main table below the infobox. Maybe there's a way to stop this happening, but I don't know the markup. -- Rob Sinden ( talk) 12:23, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes, all of them (including Scream) have been adjusted. So, Scream made 293 million in literal dollars, but when adjusted it is more than that because the value of the dollar increased. As for domestic over global it depends on what you mean. Are you meaning, global franchises (e.g., including films like Ju-On?) or global as in the foreign money that films like Scream, Friday the 13th, etc. brought in? If it is the former, then I wouldn't even know where to begin. The initial source that I used only compared a handful of horror franchises, and they were American franchises. Not to mention the fact that these American franchises are probably more well known around the world than any foreign franchise. You can virtually go anywhere and show them Freddy or Jason and they'd know who they were. If you mean the international grosses for these films, then no there is not enough information. Most of the older franchises don't have a lot of reported foreign box grosses, even though we know they were released internationally. Take Friday the 13th for example. I cannot find a reliable source for foreign box office for at least half of the films. Now, even if I could I still could not use those figures when comparing franchises in adjusted dollars because I'd probably never be able to find conversions for the foreign dollars in each of the different countries that the film's appear in. That was why I kept the list to comparing other "American" horror franchises to each other because I cannot find any information for non-American films and then it would be next to impossible to try and adjust for inflation with every different type of currency being used for the foreign releases. I mean, Europe uses the Euro now, but 20 year ago they were all using different currency. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 13:01, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
The basic thought is for making file names that are as decriptive as possible. But when we look here: Wikipedia:File mover for reasons to make name changes: don't rename, it sounds like they should be left as is because the name problem isn't a big one.

I was wondering why it didn't fit. I mean, he turned right around to face her, appearing to have known where she was. With Gale, we did not see him chase her to that area, but she found he was there searching it already. Also, when she almost walks into view of him, he immediately checks the room she was in. And though he had no reason to believe she was in it, he continues to follow the path she was taking to attempt escape. Then there was the bathroom stall incident, which should speak for itself. There are other occurrences too, such as Ghostface knowing Sidney was about to attract attention to herself despite not being able to see her actions. Then there's his tendency to call people at some pretty pinpoint times, such as Casey right before she was to call the police (after he rang the doorbell), or CiCi when she was standing right in front of the closet he was hiding in (before his physical attack). There were just too many 'coincidences' of it IMO. I don't find being klutzy at times to be that major a detractor. Besides, I only recall him truly falling of his own accord once; the first chase on Sidney in Scream 2 (bumping and falling over the lamp and couch). He's usually only downed by something his target does in self-defense, hardly obvious things. We can't get something about his awareness in there? 173.77.23.212 ( talk) 18:07, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Greetings! I see you've reverted a number of edits at Ghostface (Scream). If I'm reading the situation right, you're treating the removal of text that Sidney survives as vandalism. I don't see this as clear-cut vandalism; I'd recommend explaining why the information should stay, at least in an edit summary and possibly on the talk page. I've advised the IP editor that he's in danger of violating 3RR and should discuss his desired change at the talk page. You should probably switch to the talk page as well—since this isn't clear-cut vandalism, your reverts also put you in jeopardy of violating 3RR. — C.Fred ( talk) 19:21, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Unstable refers to drastic changes to the page. There have not been drastic changes, just lots of small ones. That's going to happen regardless, even during the GAC process if some of the issues are not corrected. Ignoring stylistic changes, there is still a lot of issue with the prose. Plus, there isn't a rush on the GAC process. If the only issue with the page is "unstable" then that's easily arguable. Trust me, if a reviewer says they won't pass it because of that then I'll be right beside you fighting that rediculous conclusion since there are not major changes happening to the article.

A tag has been placed on File:Horrible-poster.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the
the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi there. Non-free images on Wikipedia are restricted to a size of 160,000 or so pixels, which is 400x400 if the image were square, but could also be 500x320 or 600x266 etc. if the image is rectangular. The resolution should also be below 100 dots per inch (Photoshop uses 72dpi and Paint.NET uses 96dpi as defaults, which are both fine). I am posting this because you've recently uploaded several images that were larger than this. If you do not have at your disposal the ability to reduce the image sizes yourself, you can upload the image as is and leave {{ Non-free reduce}} on the file description page, and a bot will resize it for you.

Hello! Although it is a "who is the killer" type film, many horror films have an unknown figure killing. Feel free to include it, but I'm not so comfortable categorizing a "mystery" film that isn't identifiable with the genre.

There is nothing wrong with the titles. Publication history talks about the creation of the character and his publication history. Fictional character biography talks about his actions in the comics. There are guidelines for these here Wikipedia:Manual of Style (comics) Darkwarriorblake (talk) 22:02, 24 June 2011 (UTC) Also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Man as an example of a good way to do a comic article.

I disagree, The title of "fictional character biography" has no clarification or distinct to only published material and therefore may very well include any fiction from video game or movie universe as well; therefore a more accurate title is needed such as Published Character history" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.22.186 ( talk) 22:09, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
You have completely missed the point of what I just said. You clearly did not understand my previous statement. I was trying to tell you that the title of the article does not clarify or distinguish only published material. The word "Comic" does not appear in the title, therefore the word fiction could apply to video game or movie. Thats why the title at least needs to say "Comic" but i digress, it useless and pointless to have a plot summary for a copyrighted character, because such a brief plot summary itself fails to explain character motivation. Instead of this section, it should just be a chronological list of Eddie's stories such as ASM # 300, 315-17 etc.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.22.186 ( talk) 23:21, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
And I do respect your 2 cents, having seen that you're a very good and careful editor. Based on my opinion of your judgment, if you want to reinsert, I'll grudgingly go along — though it feels to me like original-research analysis to compare it the other movies, whereas simply giving the numbers seems more like just concrete facts. I'm also not sure what the factual value of such comparisons are in an encyclopedia, as opposed to in the trade press where they presumably may help executives make decisions. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 23:39, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Yes, all of them (including Scream) have been adjusted. So, Scream made 293 million in literal dollars, but when adjusted it is more than that because the value of the dollar increased. As for domestic over global it depends on what you mean. Are you meaning, global franchises (e.g., including films like Ju-On?) or global as in the foreign money that films like Scream, Friday the 13th, etc. brought in? If it is the former, then I wouldn't even know where to begin. The initial source that I used only compared a handful of horror franchises, and they were American franchises. Not to mention the fact that these American franchises are probably more well known around the world than any foreign franchise. You can virtually go anywhere and show them Freddy or Jason and they'd know who they were. If you mean the international grosses for these films, then no there is not enough information. Most of the older franchises don't have a lot of reported foreign box grosses, even though we know they were released internationally. Take Friday the 13th for example. I cannot find a reliable source for foreign box office for at least half of the films. Now, even if I could I still could not use those figures when comparing franchises in adjusted dollars because I'd probably never be able to find conversions for the foreign dollars in each of the different countries that the film's appear in. That was why I kept the list to comparing other "American" horror franchises to each other because I cannot find any information for non-American films and then it would be next to impossible to try and adjust for inflation with every different type of currency being used for the foreign releases. I mean, Europe uses the Euro now, but 20 year ago they were all using different currency. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 13:01, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
The basic thought is for making file names that are as decriptive as possible. But when we look here: Wikipedia:File mover for reasons to make name changes: don't rename, it sounds like they should be left as is because the name problem isn't a big one.

I was wondering why it didn't fit. I mean, he turned right around to face her, appearing to have known where she was. With Gale, we did not see him chase her to that area, but she found he was there searching it already. Also, when she almost walks into view of him, he immediately checks the room she was in. And though he had no reason to believe she was in it, he continues to follow the path she was taking to attempt escape. Then there was the bathroom stall incident, which should speak for itself. There are other occurrences too, such as Ghostface knowing Sidney was about to attract attention to herself despite not being able to see her actions. Then there's his tendency to call people at some pretty pinpoint times, such as Casey right before she was to call the police (after he rang the doorbell), or CiCi when she was standing right in front of the closet he was hiding in (before his physical attack). There were just too many 'coincidences' of it IMO. I don't find being klutzy at times to be that major a detractor. Besides, I only recall him truly falling of his own accord once; the first chase on Sidney in Scream 2 (bumping and falling over the lamp and couch). He's usually only downed by something his target does in self-defense, hardly obvious things. We can't get something about his awareness in there? 173.77.23.212 ( talk) 18:07, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Campbellcoxarquette.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Greetings! I see you've reverted a number of edits at Ghostface (Scream). If I'm reading the situation right, you're treating the removal of text that Sidney survives as vandalism. I don't see this as clear-cut vandalism; I'd recommend explaining why the information should stay, at least in an edit summary and possibly on the talk page. I've advised the IP editor that he's in danger of violating 3RR and should discuss his desired change at the talk page. You should probably switch to the talk page as well—since this isn't clear-cut vandalism, your reverts also put you in jeopardy of violating 3RR. — C.Fred ( talk) 19:21, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Unstable refers to drastic changes to the page. There have not been drastic changes, just lots of small ones. That's going to happen regardless, even during the GAC process if some of the issues are not corrected. Ignoring stylistic changes, there is still a lot of issue with the prose. Plus, there isn't a rush on the GAC process. If the only issue with the page is "unstable" then that's easily arguable. Trust me, if a reviewer says they won't pass it because of that then I'll be right beside you fighting that rediculous conclusion since there are not major changes happening to the article.

A tag has been placed on File:Horrible-poster.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the
the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi there. Non-free images on Wikipedia are restricted to a size of 160,000 or so pixels, which is 400x400 if the image were square, but could also be 500x320 or 600x266 etc. if the image is rectangular. The resolution should also be below 100 dots per inch (Photoshop uses 72dpi and Paint.NET uses 96dpi as defaults, which are both fine). I am posting this because you've recently uploaded several images that were larger than this. If you do not have at your disposal the ability to reduce the image sizes yourself, you can upload the image as is and leave {{ Non-free reduce}} on the file description page, and a bot will resize it for you.

Hello! Although it is a "who is the killer" type film, many horror films have an unknown figure killing. Feel free to include it, but I'm not so comfortable categorizing a "mystery" film that isn't identifiable with the genre.

There is nothing wrong with the titles. Publication history talks about the creation of the character and his publication history. Fictional character biography talks about his actions in the comics. There are guidelines for these here Wikipedia:Manual of Style (comics) Darkwarriorblake (talk) 22:02, 24 June 2011 (UTC) Also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Man as an example of a good way to do a comic article.

I disagree, The title of "fictional character biography" has no clarification or distinct to only published material and therefore may very well include any fiction from video game or movie universe as well; therefore a more accurate title is needed such as Published Character history" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.22.186 ( talk) 22:09, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
You have completely missed the point of what I just said. You clearly did not understand my previous statement. I was trying to tell you that the title of the article does not clarify or distinguish only published material. The word "Comic" does not appear in the title, therefore the word fiction could apply to video game or movie. Thats why the title at least needs to say "Comic" but i digress, it useless and pointless to have a plot summary for a copyrighted character, because such a brief plot summary itself fails to explain character motivation. Instead of this section, it should just be a chronological list of Eddie's stories such as ASM # 300, 315-17 etc.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.22.186 ( talk) 23:21, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
And I do respect your 2 cents, having seen that you're a very good and careful editor. Based on my opinion of your judgment, if you want to reinsert, I'll grudgingly go along — though it feels to me like original-research analysis to compare it the other movies, whereas simply giving the numbers seems more like just concrete facts. I'm also not sure what the factual value of such comparisons are in an encyclopedia, as opposed to in the trade press where they presumably may help executives make decisions. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 23:39, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
