for a very sound, beautifully put, and extremely helpful argument at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_films_featuring_crossword_puzzles. I was in the middle of writing a refutation myself, but on reading this realised that there was no need to. I could not have put it better myself. Great job!

How's it going? That's a great task in improving the article, and it's good you're getting an early start on it. For the trailer, I'm not too sure on the copyright since it's listed as a British film. If you can determine what their copyright requirements are that will help in using the images. Although, I think trailers released specifically for the U.S. are their own entity, so that could have a separate copyright. You can try searching the U.S. Copyright Office's copyright listings and e-mail them for specifics.
Looking at the image, the uploader appears to have added multiple non-free images, so it's possible that it was labeled as a trailer image to avoid having it deleted. If you can find a similar/better screenshot in the trailer, then it can probably be replaced and deleted (assuming the trailer is okay for public domain). I'd recommend looking on the DVD and seeing if there's possibly another trailer outside of the two you've already viewed. If you need me to look at some sources for you, I may have access to some books through my library. Let me know if you want me to check on any. --Happy editing!

For the vandal help today (weird IP and William Hope stuff). The IP guy is interesting - I stumbled onto him tracking an IP sock a few days ago. The William Hope stuff has been going on in conjunction with some weird Ned Beatty edits for months now. But this is the first time I've ever had to ask for protection of my user page. SO I appreciated the extra hand in reverting the weirdness. Millahnna ( talk) 16:01, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Wow, thank you Erik for this timely heads-up about the new scholarly sources for Themes in Avatar.

You and Giro were the primary acrhetects of this sub-project way back in October of 2007. [1] In the original version and up through today, the page included the phrase " For these articles, the primary notability guideline is that the article should not exist prior to a verified confirmation of the start of the film shoot." While the italicized portion of that sentence appears to come right out of WP:NFF, it is generally considered across the rest of Wikipedia that the "primary notability guideline" is WP:GNG.
And to borrow slightly from NFF, I'd also like to add a caveat or two that clarifies that
But and as this sub-project deals specifically with "future films", I'd like to address the well-meant but often premature creation of "project" articles by including this paragraph on "exceptions":

I reverted the redirect of the article on Dominic Toretto to the character list per the results of the deletion discussion here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Dominic_Toretto_%28Character%29
I agree that the article could use more citations to reliable external sources, as well as impact on Vin Diesel's career, audience reaction, course of the series, etc. and I put a suggested starter list of independent secondary references on the Talk page. To my mind, there is plenty of support for notability, and the existing article is the work of over a dozen named editors over about two years - a standalone page for this character seems justified.

Hi! I'm not a regular contributor, but I just thought I would let your community know that the English article 'Cut' (as in a change of camera angle) is linked to the Italian article 'Taglio' (which only means 'cut' in the sense of removing scenes - therefore a different article). 'Raccordo' is the Italian term for a cut in the sense of a change of camera angle (as far as I know). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.234.230.29 ( talk) 21:43, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I've noticed that Allmovie.. or Allrovi, has revamped their sites. They have added an infobox to the side and included film studios, distributors and countries. Do you think this can be used as a source for articles where the film's country is disputed? One example is Resident Evil: Afterlife.

Erik, I noticed that you deleted the marketing section in the Cars 2 article. I'm a little new with the marketing sections in film articles, but I think I'm starting to get the hang out it. After reviewing the MOS:FILM#Marketing, it seems that one of the major reasons that you chose to delete the section was because it lacked reliable sources and notability. I reviewed the section and supplemented it with several reliable sources. I also thought that it was worth adding information about the viral campaign. The viral campaign received coverage from major film sites, so I believe it is notable. I re-drafted the section (as well as the rest of the article) and it would be great to get some feedback. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- TravisBernard ( talk) 12:44, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

As predicted, Erik, you don't want to talk about it. It's kind of revealing that you respond to a critic not by trying to correct your mistakes, but by trying to undermine him. Very petty on your part, thin-skinned, but some people are like that. -- Ring Cinema ( talk) 18:31, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
This is valid point. There must be other errors in this movie. This is the only I have been able to verify so far. WIMHARTER ( talk) 03:30, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
My point and the other users point is valid. It can be easily verified by checking Google. I even went as far to put a timeline showing that deice was not named Rubik’s Cube until named 1980. It is not original research, I simply pay attention while I was watching the movie.
What makes your input in more valid then mine? I would be more concerned that the description gives the whole movie.
Other users must have thought my input was valid. Some one changed my original wording for clarity. Someone else changed Mistake to Anachronism.
Both Rubik’s Cube and the reference bothered me when I saw them. That is why I added it when I was able verify that there were was no Rubik’s Cube in 1979. Someone else added the Walkman reference.
I will leave it to you to add it back. Also put a spoiler warning. WIMHARTER ( talk) 00:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
It was glaring obvious to me. Did you see the film yet? It is worth watching.
When I heard the reference to Rubik’s Cube I thought I don’t remember hearing about it in 1979.
Errors like this and continuity errors interfere with my enjoyment of film or TV show. I think someone could have checked this in about 5 minutes.
At the time the movie took place I was 16. At that I had never heard of a to Rubik’s Cube or Walkman. The Movie just came out it may take a while for other people to see it. WIMHARTER ( talk) 05:43, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Man, looking at above it seems you can never get a week of no issues or push-backs on any edits. Anyway, I just now saw the plot notice template you created all the way back in October in use on Super 8. That's definitely a helpful inclusion, I'm surprised I've not noticed it before. Have you seen any success with reduced editing to plots with use of the template? I also want to let you know that I'm going to continue to have less interactions with WP:FILM as I work on a local SD project. I'm planning on advertising this month to see if someone would like to take over the newsletter (I've now realized I've been doing it for nearly four and a half years). I know I've never been that involved with the discussions, but will continue to assist with requested copyedits and helping new editors. I'm glad to see other editors have stepped up, many with positive outlooks on the project. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 ( talk • contrib) 23:48, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Erik. A few years ago, you recommended hollywoodchicago.com be blacklisted from Wikipedia. Can I assume you made this recommendation because the site owner was spamming Wikipedia with unnotable reviews and creating COI articles (relevant discussions: [2] User_talk:ThuranX/Archive_6#HollywoodChicago)? The reason I ask is I've used a question and answer transcript-style interview from the site as a source for the Tom Hooper (director) article. The editorial content is sound but as the site is on the blacklist I don't want it to affect a future FAC nomination. Would you mind sharing your opinion as to whether the whole site can be whitelisted or if I should just get an exception made for the interview URL? Thanks. Bradley0110 ( talk) 09:58, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Hey Erik. Just wanted to let you know that the last FAC for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre didn't go that well either. I dunno what it is about the article that seems to stop it from FAC. This one was mainly about the prose, then at the end (after it was restarted), about a couple of sources. As it stands now, I'm not sure I would risk a further FAC, the peer reviews hardly got any reviews. I'm think of abandoning it all together. 3 years and no FAC, some articles move to FA pretty qucikly, but not this one. I don't know what to do with the article anymore.-- Tærkast ( Discuss) 14:57, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi Erik, I have a few festival diaries from international publications I can send you (some are print only so I will have to scan). Between these and more recent web sources it should at least be apparent when the festival started, who started it, who the programmers are, what audience numbers are like, and what films screened/what guests appeared in person in which years. Although the press will not list every film or guest, many of the names previously listed will be verifiable. So is there somewhere I can email scanned documents as well as links to web press? And how soon will someone add to/create a Fantasia page, since I have been told by user:Island Monkey that I am not allowed to edit or create the page myself? Thanks!

I noticed you removed, the marketing section from The Avengers (2012 film). I know it wasn't much besides the comic-con appearance, but while these appearances are becoming more common place, they are far from the norm of movie marketing as noted by WP:FILMMOS#Marketing. I do not have strong opinion on the matter, just thought I'd share my veiwpoint.
On a related topic, Marvel Studio's absence from this year Comic-Con (which was expected to showcase The Avengers) in favor of D23 is creating a lot of buzz. If the section were to be restored I wonder if this would be worth including.

Hi, I just added my name to the French Film task force and wanted to know more about the project.

Archiveeditor ( talk) 11:11, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi Erik,
I saw your message and review on my article. Thank you for the intervention. I indeed speak French fluently and I would like to help with translations if needed and, with regards to film articles, I agree with you when saying that reviews for old titles like Betty (1992) are scarce and hard to come across. I am enclosing two more links of articles I wrote in the past few days and you will see that the story sections do not have much in it.
Whilst I understand that articles should cover each subject comprehensively, I think (in this specific case) that informing anglophone readers on foreign subjects is important. Moreover, even though an article like Betty or other films may not be as articulate as pages like Casablanca or Gone With The Wind, they offer a first insight on the subject with short-yet-precise data, and I believe that is also one of the purposes for which an encyclopedia exists.
As per references, you'll see that I have cited Le Figaro in my work more than once, since it's a worldwide accredited publication and it has a cinema section. Again, this is my opinion and it's not meant to counter Wikipedia's rules and information pillars.
I look forward to hearing from you again soon and wish to thank you again for your support.
Best,

Discussion about the poster is here. :) — Mike Allen 09:14, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
Hey Erik. I am back from my long weekend. As far as your question of how much I wanted to do, I also tend to shoot for FA status when I work on articles (even if I bring them to GA status first), so if you are asking whether we want to try to work these articles up to FA rather than GA, I'm completely game for that. (Just a disclaimer though, July looks like it will be a busy month for me -- most of my next few weekends are booked and I have another week-long vacation coming up, although I can bring the laptop on that one and probably can edit.) How would you suggest we get started? Do you need my help on anything before the split, or do you have that on lockdown? And how do you suggest we break up the work after that? Should we just split the references we've collected so far and then start plugging away? — Hun ter Ka hn 13:47, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
Hey Erik. Just wanted to say that I haven't forgotten about my volunteering to help out with Kill Bill, and I'm sorry that I haven't gotten started on it yet. I've been doing some pretty extensive work on Characters of Parks and Recreation because I hope to nominate it for FL (never done an FL before so I don't really know if I'm there yet) and was trying to wrap that up ASAP before my vacation. I plan to check my local libraries for KB sources very soon and get started on that. Sorry again! — Hun ter Ka hn 17:02, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
I'd be interested in your opinion on this Lone Ranger film. My earlier concerns about "film projects" seemed to have reared their heads again.

I'll be able to get some faster than others, because some are at libraries that are closer to me than others. I may be able to get access to some of the others online via Google Books or whatever, but these are the ones I can physically get to. (When I go on vacation, I could possibly check the libraries out there and see if I can get different ones, but that's unlikely.) So I can concentrate on these sources, but if you've already got some of them and don't want me to worry about some, let me know. — Hun ter Ka hn 16:23, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

for a very sound, beautifully put, and extremely helpful argument at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_films_featuring_crossword_puzzles. I was in the middle of writing a refutation myself, but on reading this realised that there was no need to. I could not have put it better myself. Great job!

How's it going? That's a great task in improving the article, and it's good you're getting an early start on it. For the trailer, I'm not too sure on the copyright since it's listed as a British film. If you can determine what their copyright requirements are that will help in using the images. Although, I think trailers released specifically for the U.S. are their own entity, so that could have a separate copyright. You can try searching the U.S. Copyright Office's copyright listings and e-mail them for specifics.
Looking at the image, the uploader appears to have added multiple non-free images, so it's possible that it was labeled as a trailer image to avoid having it deleted. If you can find a similar/better screenshot in the trailer, then it can probably be replaced and deleted (assuming the trailer is okay for public domain). I'd recommend looking on the DVD and seeing if there's possibly another trailer outside of the two you've already viewed. If you need me to look at some sources for you, I may have access to some books through my library. Let me know if you want me to check on any. --Happy editing!

You and Giro were the primary acrhetects of this sub-project way back in October of 2007. [1] In the original version and up through today, the page included the phrase " For these articles, the primary notability guideline is that the article should not exist prior to a verified confirmation of the start of the film shoot." While the italicized portion of that sentence appears to come right out of WP:NFF, it is generally considered across the rest of Wikipedia that the "primary notability guideline" is WP:GNG.
And to borrow slightly from NFF, I'd also like to add a caveat or two that clarifies that
But and as this sub-project deals specifically with "future films", I'd like to address the well-meant but often premature creation of "project" articles by including this paragraph on "exceptions":

I reverted the redirect of the article on Dominic Toretto to the character list per the results of the deletion discussion here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Dominic_Toretto_%28Character%29
I agree that the article could use more citations to reliable external sources, as well as impact on Vin Diesel's career, audience reaction, course of the series, etc. and I put a suggested starter list of independent secondary references on the Talk page. To my mind, there is plenty of support for notability, and the existing article is the work of over a dozen named editors over about two years - a standalone page for this character seems justified.

Erik, I noticed that you deleted the marketing section in the Cars 2 article. I'm a little new with the marketing sections in film articles, but I think I'm starting to get the hang out it. After reviewing the MOS:FILM#Marketing, it seems that one of the major reasons that you chose to delete the section was because it lacked reliable sources and notability. I reviewed the section and supplemented it with several reliable sources. I also thought that it was worth adding information about the viral campaign. The viral campaign received coverage from major film sites, so I believe it is notable. I re-drafted the section (as well as the rest of the article) and it would be great to get some feedback. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -- TravisBernard ( talk) 12:44, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

This is valid point. There must be other errors in this movie. This is the only I have been able to verify so far. WIMHARTER ( talk) 03:30, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
My point and the other users point is valid. It can be easily verified by checking Google. I even went as far to put a timeline showing that deice was not named Rubik’s Cube until named 1980. It is not original research, I simply pay attention while I was watching the movie.
What makes your input in more valid then mine? I would be more concerned that the description gives the whole movie.
Other users must have thought my input was valid. Some one changed my original wording for clarity. Someone else changed Mistake to Anachronism.
Both Rubik’s Cube and the reference bothered me when I saw them. That is why I added it when I was able verify that there were was no Rubik’s Cube in 1979. Someone else added the Walkman reference.
I will leave it to you to add it back. Also put a spoiler warning. WIMHARTER ( talk) 00:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
It was glaring obvious to me. Did you see the film yet? It is worth watching.
When I heard the reference to Rubik’s Cube I thought I don’t remember hearing about it in 1979.
Errors like this and continuity errors interfere with my enjoyment of film or TV show. I think someone could have checked this in about 5 minutes.
At the time the movie took place I was 16. At that I had never heard of a to Rubik’s Cube or Walkman. The Movie just came out it may take a while for other people to see it. WIMHARTER ( talk) 05:43, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Man, looking at above it seems you can never get a week of no issues or push-backs on any edits. Anyway, I just now saw the plot notice template you created all the way back in October in use on Super 8. That's definitely a helpful inclusion, I'm surprised I've not noticed it before. Have you seen any success with reduced editing to plots with use of the template? I also want to let you know that I'm going to continue to have less interactions with WP:FILM as I work on a local SD project. I'm planning on advertising this month to see if someone would like to take over the newsletter (I've now realized I've been doing it for nearly four and a half years).

Hi, Erik. A few years ago, you recommended hollywoodchicago.com be blacklisted from Wikipedia. Can I assume you made this recommendation because the site owner was spamming Wikipedia with unnotable reviews and creating COI articles (relevant discussions: [2] User_talk:ThuranX/Archive_6#HollywoodChicago)? The reason I ask is I've used a question and answer transcript-style interview from the site as a source for the Tom Hooper (director) article. The editorial content is sound but as the site is on the blacklist I don't want it to affect a future FAC nomination. Would you mind sharing your opinion as to whether the whole site can be whitelisted or if I should just get an exception made for the interview URL? Thanks.

Hey Erik. Just wanted to let you know that the last FAC for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre didn't go that well either. I dunno what it is about the article that seems to stop it from FAC. This one was mainly about the prose, then at the end (after it was restarted), about a couple of sources. As it stands now, I'm not sure I would risk a further FAC, the peer reviews hardly got any reviews. I'm think of abandoning it all together. 3 years and no FAC, some articles move to FA pretty qucikly, but not this one. I don't know what to do with the article anymore.-- Tærkast ( Discuss) 14:57, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi Erik, I have a few festival diaries from international publications I can send you (some are print only so I will have to scan). Between these and more recent web sources it should at least be apparent when the festival started, who started it, who the programmers are, what audience numbers are like, and what films screened/what guests appeared in person in which years. Although the press will not list every film or guest, many of the names previously listed will be verifiable. So is there somewhere I can email scanned documents as well as links to web press? And how soon will someone add to/create a Fantasia page, since I have been told by user:Island Monkey that I am not allowed to edit or create the page myself? Thanks!

I noticed you removed, the marketing section from The Avengers (2012 film). I know it wasn't much besides the comic-con appearance, but while these appearances are becoming more common place, they are far from the norm of movie marketing as noted by WP:FILMMOS#Marketing. I do not have strong opinion on the matter, just thought I'd share my veiwpoint.
On a related topic, Marvel Studio's absence from this year Comic-Con (which was expected to showcase The Avengers) in favor of D23 is creating a lot of buzz. If the section were to be restored I wonder if this would be worth including.

Archiveeditor ( talk) 11:11, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi Erik,
I saw your message and review on my article. Thank you for the intervention. I indeed speak French fluently and I would like to help with translations if needed and, with regards to film articles, I agree with you when saying that reviews for old titles like Betty (1992) are scarce and hard to come across. I am enclosing two more links of articles I wrote in the past few days and you will see that the story sections do not have much in it.
Whilst I understand that articles should cover each subject comprehensively, I think (in this specific case) that informing anglophone readers on foreign subjects is important. Moreover, even though an article like Betty or other films may not be as articulate as pages like Casablanca or Gone With The Wind, they offer a first insight on the subject with short-yet-precise data, and I believe that is also one of the purposes for which an encyclopedia exists.
As per references, you'll see that I have cited Le Figaro in my work more than once, since it's a worldwide accredited publication and it has a cinema section. Again, this is my opinion and it's not meant to counter Wikipedia's rules and information pillars.
I look forward to hearing from you again soon and wish to thank you again for your support.
Best,

Hey Erik. I am back from my long weekend. As far as your question of how much I wanted to do, I also tend to shoot for FA status when I work on articles (even if I bring them to GA status first), so if you are asking whether we want to try to work these articles up to FA rather than GA, I'm completely game for that. (Just a disclaimer though, July looks like it will be a busy month for me -- most of my next few weekends are booked and I have another week-long vacation coming up, although I can bring the laptop on that one and probably can edit.) How would you suggest we get started? Do you need my help on anything before the split, or do you have that on lockdown? And how do you suggest we break up the work after that? Should we just split the references we've collected so far and then start plugging away? — Hun ter Ka hn 13:47, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

I've been doing some pretty extensive work on Characters of Parks and Recreation because I hope to nominate it for FL (never done an FL before so I don't really know if I'm there yet) and was trying to wrap that up ASAP before my vacation. I plan to check my local libraries for KB sources very soon and get started on that. Sorry again! — Hun ter Ka hn 17:02, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
I'd be interested in your opinion on this Lone Ranger film. My earlier concerns about "film projects" seemed to have reared their heads again. To my mind there is no reason this article shouldn't stay at The Lone Ranger#Planned Lone Ranger film, until guidelines at WP:NFF kick in. A good example of why we should follow WP:NFF is Cleo (film) -- Rob Sinden ( talk) 12:24, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
Hey Erik, it's Hunter Kahn. It looks like these are the Kill Bill sources I can get my hands on:
I'll be able to get some faster than others, because some are at libraries that are closer to me than others. I may be able to get access to some of the others online via Google Books or whatever, but these are the ones I can physically get to. (When I go on vacation, I could possibly check the libraries out there and see if I can get different ones, but that's unlikely.) So I can concentrate on these sources, but if you've already got some of them and don't want me to worry about some, let me know. — Hun ter Ka hn 16:23, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
