Hey Erik, We talked a while ago about standardizing the list of oscar awards and wanted to let you know that I finally got around to writing something that automatically creates the template using the data from the oscar database website. After I was done coding, however, I found that most awards had already been standardized. I wanted to know if there were any left to be done. The ones I did just to test the code are here.

Hello Erik! I'm an italian wikipedian. In these days I'm translating from english to italian American Beauty (film), a fantastic article that I would like to make featured also on it.wiki. However, I have some questions:
Thanks for the answers, Whatnwas ( talk) 12:15, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
I have started using the approach I got from you, with simplifying the box office gross amounts ($117,546,882 → $117.5 million), on many of the articles I keep up. Though I'm having hard time on The Smurfs with keeping that format. Users (mostly IP's) insist on changing it to the long format and one editor started a discussion on the talk page asking why this format is being used when "most" film articles do not. I showed them featured articles and articles you work using that format. Do you think this should be the preferred way to go on all articles, or should it be left up to the main editors of that page? At first I didn't care for it but I now find it just easier to manage, easier to read, and the fact that most reliable sources write it that way anyway.— Mike Allen 02:29, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
Filming has begun. See this source. [2]
Can I put the article back please? The Editor 155 ( talk) 15:17, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
Yeah I put the incubated article up instead of my own version of the article, so can you please remove the tag on the article?

I'm not sure why as a third party this private matter is of interest to you. Unless, of course, you are not really a third party. It doesn't seem remarkable to me that one person may claim that saying "you have no balls" is acceptable behavior on Wikipedia. It does seems remarkable to me that a second person would believe so, when common sense says that obviously it is not. I also note that same use of boldface in both your tendencies. I think perhaps a SPI may be in order. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 19:35, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
I think Wikipedia's main problem is its societey, and the dropping user numbers support my view. So I think it's important to not hand the whole thing over to people like Acroterion and Tenebrae, but to resist them. I'm truly sorry that I couldn't explain it better.
Anyway, thanks for your help during the crisis. Have fun! -- OnlyForQuadell ( talk) 20:08, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

hi erik
i was editing the film page for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27re_Nobody_till_Somebody_Kills_You when i noticed a major issue.
looks like the wikipedia community got confused between the similar titled song and film.
the title of the film page linked above is wrong. based on film community guidelines, the proper page titles should be as follows. however, i do not know how to edit page titles. can you please help?
You're Nobody (Til Somebody Kills You) (song) http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=You%27re_Nobody_(Til_Somebody_Kills_You)_(song)

Hello Erik. Thanks for your replies at this thread Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film#Question about country templates that I started. I am wondering how you would like to proceed. Should we leave it open for a couple of days to see if anyone else has other thoughts? After that would you like to do the work to create the templates? I would be happy if you did that since I have not worked with them I wouldn't want to mess them up. Thanks for your time and cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 20:12, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

How long would you say to wait on the article The King's Speech to renominate it? 2? 3? I ask you this because I was thinking that it could be on the Queen's 60th Jubilee, but I guess it could be moved to the king's 120th birthday (December 14, 2015). Anyway, how long do you think it should wait? Thanks. Guy546( Talk) 02:25, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Do you know why the Terry Gilliam article is categorized in Category:Films directed by Terry Gilliam? I went to remove it, but it seems it cannot be removed, which is to say, if you open the ext. links section, and scroll down to the categories, this category does not appear on the list. Are articles about directors usually categorized in their "film directed by" categories? This truly makes no sense to me. --- RepublicanJacobite TheFortyFive 03:04, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi Erik - I just wanted to let you know that I have removed your nomination of the 1955 Richard III film from the FAR page. There is a requirement in place that a talk page notification of work needed be made before the nomination is initiated. Because this didn't happen, I have placed the review on hold and added a new section to the talk page with the work needed notification. If there is no response after at least a week, the review can progress. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Dana boomer ( talk) 17:01, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

I was glad to see that the newsletter is still being sent out, and I hope it takes on a new style/layout to give it a new transition. I'm hoping that more active members of the project will be up for stepping in as coordinators to continue to seek out new ideas and goals. I've definitely enjoyed it the last few years, but time is limited and I'm trying to focus on image additions, article writing, and upkeep of articles I've worked on. I'll still jump in on discussions when I can and help out with any projects (drives, collaborations, etc.) as they pop up. I'm happy to see that you're running again, you've done an excellent job of keeping the project moving forward over the last few years (ha, I can say it too!) and if we were to have the active membership of some of the other larger projects, the outputs in article quality would significantly progress further.

Hi Erik, I hope you're well. My name is Matthew Roth and I'm a Storyteller working on the 2011 fundraiser with the Wikimedia Foundation in San Francisco. In past years, we've relied on Jimbo to carry the bulk of the fundraising weight and he's done very well helping us hit our yearly funding targets. This year, however, we're broadening the scope and reach of the fundraiser by incorporating more voices and different people on the funding banners and appeals that will start running full-time on November 7th. We're testing new messages and finding some really great results with editors and staff members of the Foundation. You can see the current progress of the tests here. I'm curious if you would want to participate in an interview with me as part of this process? The interviews usually last 60 minutes and involve a number of questions about your personal editing experiences, as well as general questions about Wikipedia and its impact in the world. In case you were curious, yllosubmarine spoke highly of working with you and recommended I write this inquiry. Please let me know your thoughts by emailing mroth (at) wikimedia.org. Thanks!

Hi, I noticed back in 2008 you had requested that TheMovieDB.org be blacklisted. I wanted to give you a heads up that I was going to request the blacklist entry be removed. There was a single isolated incident with one guy, so I don't think there will be an issue in the future. I agree that links to the site shouldn't be used on movie articles. Instead I would like to use the link for articles on media center software, as most of them use the site as their main source of metadata. (for example, XBMC, Plex, etc) In other words, discussion of the site itself rather than the content it contains.
I was wondering if you had any objections/thoughts about this before I made the request. -- Ned Scott 01:37, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Erik, I am a member of the AFRHC, French association for Historic Research in Cinema, a bunch of Hard-core french speaking cinema historians : we admire people like Rick Altman and richard Abel this one, not the African Law Studies one on WP. I've just created the article I am not that sure about the name as it was asked for creation on the The Filmmaking task force page.
I am about to create a page about Phonoscene in english now that the french wp version is "acceptable" I don't know how to interwiki this !.
Please, introduce me to contributors interested in "before WWI cinema", sound-on-disc and so on. I've good first hand english sources and I'd like to share this work article in english (google book) about phonoscene.
Please help me to integrate this task force. Best Regards-- Thomas Louis Jacques ( talk) 15:01, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
Hello again Erik. I left my input at the discussion that you linked to. I think my edit count at FMJ must be due to my work as a wikignome or my relative longevity here at WikiP - or both. I think that the editor who might be of the most help in getting that article into shape is User:WickerGuy. He is thoroughly versed in Kubrick and is also a dab hand at research. On another note can 25 years have really gone by since the release of FMJ? It feels like it was only a couple years ago since I got in line to see it. Cheers.

It's been over two years since I left Wikipedia. The reason I left is because I felt like I was mostly causing trouble.

...but how can I do it without damaging the articles? I have the bad habit of exaggerating everything and take stuff seriously. For example, if I see nothing but negative things in the criticism section of a movie I love I could defend the movie by making an edit "IT'S NOT THAT BAD!!!!!" that's what I did to Bad Boys II back when I was too active.
So yeah, I'm worried that I could damage a movie article rather than helping it. I am aware that I shouldn't take the criticism section seriously as it's not the opinion of movie goers but people who are paid to make the reviews, that's why I choose to watch movie reviews on YouTube instead.
So let me ask, how can I help those movie articles rather than hurting them? BlazeTheMovieFan ( talk) 17:03, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Greetings, I am a member of WikiProject United States, it was recently suggested that the American cinema task force of WikiProject Film which you are a member, might be inactive or semi active and it might be beneficial to include a joint task force for it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States, which Kumioko and me have added some of the projects like WikiProject American television and WikiProject United States Government. After reviewing the project it appears that there have not been any active discussion on the talk page in some time and the only content updates appear to be simple maintenance so being supported by a larger project might be beneficial. I have begun a discussion on the task force talk page to see how the members of the project feel about this suggestion. JJ98 ( Talk / Contributions) 21:42, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello Erik, I have just recently found out that Wikipedia will be blacked out globally in the next 8 hours, for 24 hours. I have attempted many times to read the notice about this, but it is a little confusing for me. May I ask, if you, a long-term editor to Wikipedia, could explain this to me in your own words why this is happening? If you could do that, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks for uploading File:Fight Club poster.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Hey Erik, We talked a while ago about standardizing the list of oscar awards and wanted to let you know that I finally got around to writing something that automatically creates the template using the data from the oscar database website. After I was done coding, however, I found that most awards had already been standardized. I wanted to know if there were any left to be done. The ones I did just to test the code are here.

Hello Erik! I'm an italian wikipedian. In these days I'm translating from english to italian American Beauty (film), a fantastic article that I would like to make featured also on it.wiki. However, I have some questions:
Thanks for the answers, Whatnwas ( talk) 12:15, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
I have started using the approach I got from you, with simplifying the box office gross amounts ($117,546,882 → $117.5 million), on many of the articles I keep up. Though I'm having hard time on The Smurfs with keeping that format. Users (mostly IP's) insist on changing it to the long format and one editor started a discussion on the talk page asking why this format is being used when "most" film articles do not. I showed them featured articles and articles you work using that format. Do you think this should be the preferred way to go on all articles, or should it be left up to the main editors of that page? At first I didn't care for it but I now find it just easier to manage, easier to read, and the fact that most reliable sources write it that way anyway.— Mike Allen 02:29, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

I'm not sure why as a third party this private matter is of interest to you. Unless, of course, you are not really a third party. It doesn't seem remarkable to me that one person may claim that saying "you have no balls" is acceptable behavior on Wikipedia. It does seems remarkable to me that a second person would believe so, when common sense says that obviously it is not. I also note that same use of boldface in both your tendencies. I think perhaps a SPI may be in order. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 19:35, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
I think Wikipedia's main problem is its societey, and the dropping user numbers support my view. So I think it's important to not hand the whole thing over to people like Acroterion and Tenebrae, but to resist them. I'm truly sorry that I couldn't explain it better.

Do you know why the Terry Gilliam article is categorized in Category:Films directed by Terry Gilliam?

I was glad to see that the newsletter is still being sent out, and I hope it takes on a new style/layout to give it a new transition. I'm hoping that more active members of the project will be up for stepping in as coordinators to continue to seek out new ideas and goals. I've definitely enjoyed it the last few years, but time is limited and I'm trying to focus on image additions, article writing, and upkeep of articles I've worked on. I'll still jump in on discussions when I can and help out with any projects (drives, collaborations, etc.) as they pop up. I'm happy to see that you're running again, you've done an excellent job of keeping the project moving forward over the last few years (ha, I can say it too!) and if we were to have the active membership of some of the other larger projects, the outputs in article quality would significantly progress further.

Hi Erik, I hope you're well. My name is Matthew Roth and I'm a Storyteller working on the 2011 fundraiser with the Wikimedia Foundation in San Francisco. In past years, we've relied on Jimbo to carry the bulk of the fundraising weight and he's done very well helping us hit our yearly funding targets. This year, however, we're broadening the scope and reach of the fundraiser by incorporating more voices and different people on the funding banners and appeals that will start running full-time on November 7th. We're testing new messages and finding some really great results with editors and staff members of the Foundation. You can see the current progress of the tests here. I'm curious if you would want to participate in an interview with me as part of this process? The interviews usually last 60 minutes and involve a number of questions about your personal editing experiences, as well as general questions about Wikipedia and its impact in the world. In case you were curious, yllosubmarine spoke highly of working with you and recommended I write this inquiry. Please let me know your thoughts by emailing mroth (at) wikimedia.org. Thanks!

Hi, I noticed back in 2008 you had requested that TheMovieDB.org be blacklisted. I wanted to give you a heads up that I was going to request the blacklist entry be removed. There was a single isolated incident with one guy, so I don't think there will be an issue in the future. I agree that links to the site shouldn't be used on movie articles. Instead I would like to use the link for articles on media center software, as most of them use the site as their main source of metadata. (for example, XBMC, Plex, etc) In other words, discussion of the site itself rather than the content it contains.
I was wondering if you had any objections/thoughts about this before I made the request. -- Ned Scott 01:37, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

I've just created the article I am not that sure about the name as it was asked for creation on the The Filmmaking task force page.
I am about to create a page about Phonoscene in english now that the french wp version is "acceptable" I don't know how to interwiki this !.
Please, introduce me to contributors interested in "before WWI cinema", sound-on-disc and so on. I've good first hand english sources and I'd like to share this work article in english (google book) about phonoscene.

Hello again Erik. I left my input at the discussion that you linked to. I think my edit count at FMJ must be due to my work as a wikignome or my relative longevity here at WikiP - or both. I think that the editor who might be of the most help in getting that article into shape is User:WickerGuy. He is thoroughly versed in Kubrick and is also a dab hand at research. On another note can 25 years have really gone by since the release of FMJ? It feels like it was only a couple years ago since I got in line to see it. Cheers.

...but how can I do it without damaging the articles? I have the bad habit of exaggerating everything and take stuff seriously. For example, if I see nothing but negative things in the criticism section of a movie I love I could defend the movie by making an edit "IT'S NOT THAT BAD!!!!!" that's what I did to Bad Boys II back when I was too active.
So yeah, I'm worried that I could damage a movie article rather than helping it. I am aware that I shouldn't take the criticism section seriously as it's not the opinion of movie goers but people who are paid to make the reviews, that's why I choose to watch movie reviews on YouTube instead.
So let me ask, how can I help those movie articles rather than hurting them? BlazeTheMovieFan ( talk) 17:03, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Greetings, I am a member of WikiProject United States, it was recently suggested that the American cinema task force of WikiProject Film which you are a member, might be inactive or semi active and it might be beneficial to include a joint task force for it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States, which Kumioko and me have added some of the projects like WikiProject American television and WikiProject United States Government. After reviewing the project it appears that there have not been any active discussion on the talk page in some time and the only content updates appear to be simple maintenance so being supported by a larger project might be beneficial. I have begun a discussion on the task force talk page to see how the members of the project feel about this suggestion. JJ98 ( Talk / Contributions) 21:42, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
I'd like you to take a look at my new essay "On other evidence of film notability" before it goes live. Many thanks, Schmidt,' MICHAEL Q. 03:53, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
I think I am in on renaming the film series article into this. Also we might need a little extra help on determining whether X-Men: First Class is a sequel, reboot or both on the discussion page of the article if you are not too busy. :) Jhenderson 777 16:23, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
Hey. Sorry to disturb you once more, but I would like to know whether the November 2011 newsletter for WP:Film is ready. In case it isn't, can you please tell me exactly when the newsletter of the month is delivered? Thanks. AnkitBhatt WDF 14:10, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:2007 Ten Commandments poster.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Obviously, I'm not here to help the website. So what's the point of being on this site at all? BlazeTheMovieFan ( talk) 13:01, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
Hello Erik, I have just recently found out that Wikipedia will be blacked out globally in the next 8 hours, for 24 hours. I have attempted many times to read the notice about this, but it is a little confusing for me. May I ask, if you, a long-term editor to Wikipedia, could explain this to me in your own words why this is happening? If you could do that, I would really appreciate it.
