Otto, love your picture of the Lego Chicago city you built. I've always been meaning to, but you know, keep getting side tracked (read: too lazy). Well done! -- Jquarry 03:03, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
WOW!!! Amazing work on Cinema of Austria it as good as the majority of the cinema pages already and I only started it a few weeks ago well done!!!!! Feel free to help with the timeline of Austrian films List of Austrian films. Ernst Stavro Blofeld 12:20, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Das ist sehr gut ja!!!! I have just seen your message. Yes what I am doing is compiling a list of the majority of films by country. Please list as many films as possible, but for example a short documentary is not really notable enough for the list. As the lists get longer they will be split by decade and when I do the AMerican film lists the lists will again by split inot a page for every year. You can list as many of those 3000 Austrian films as possible and feel free to start articles on all of these films. Although if page exceed 40kb then you can split by decade. Excellent work. Feel free to help also on other countries. Ernst Stavro Blofeld 15:52, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes either of those would be helpful but please only keep the actors to two if possible as that column is too thick. Good work. As the list develop I will branch it off by decade as I have done with List of Argentine films. List as many of those 3000 feature films as you can Ernst Stavro Blofeld 11:19, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi Otto, and congratulations for your work on the Austrian list. I also live in Ternitz, NO, but my German is not very good. I wanted you to know that the whole series of lists of films by country is being standardized (as in List of French films, List of Australian films) with 5 columns, i.e. Title, Director, Cast (or Actors), Genre and Notes. The column on Producer is not being included, so I really wouldn't wish that your efforts get wasted. If you think the producer info is important, it can come in the last column (Notes). There is our new WP Films department of lists and navigation management, where we are trying to keep all discussions running, please give us your opinion there. Hoverfish Talk 19:22, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Otto. THats odd that you have suddenly sprung back to life after I added those earlier film to the Austrian list. Please see my comment on the list navigation page. I know it is easier to copy from German wikipedia by adding the producer column first but please keep this in the end column Notes/Producer. All the other lists are developing this way. THankyou ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "I've been expecting you" 18:39, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Producer details are intended to go in the Notes column. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "I've been expecting you" 18:41, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I did my best to change to the new 5-column formatting without any mistakes. If there is anything I did wrong, please excuse me, I will be glad to correct it. All best. Hoverfish Talk 19:56, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I had my thoughts too about some decades becoming too long for one table. If you could give me an approximate idea of what numbers we may be dealing with in each decade, I will split accordingly. Too many tiny little tables also load the page, so decades that can be kept in one table make it easier to follow. Hoverfish Talk 21:23, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Well, take a look at Cinematic genre for the main genres. Usually we peek in IMDb and give the main first couple of genres. Usual combinations are given as in "Comedy drama", "Romantic comedy", "Sci-fi adventure", "Action drama", "Thriller / Horror", "Documentary drama", etc. Fictional and narrative are not used so much, but as long as the main genre is stated, feel free to describe a film as you think proper. And make sure you include my all favorite film Drei Herren. I recomend it to everyone as "The" Austrian film. I will split the last two years now. Cheers. Hoverfish Talk 21:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi, you left a comment on my talk page way back in January about the Cinema of Austria article. I've not been doing any editing since last Autumn but I'm back now and I'll have a look at the article and see if I can polish the translation a little. You've certainly added a lot of useful content and I think some editors have done some tidying in the intervening period but there's still a "copyedit" tag on the page so I think there's room for improvement. Valiantis 13:33, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for pointing out that in the Bloch Publishing Company article, the interwiki link to de:Hugo Bettauer wasn't correctly formatted. Somebody does need to write an English-language article about Bettauer. (I have it on my list of things to do, but would be quite pleased if someone else got there first!) In the meantime, I have reformatted the link to the German article, following the suggested format described at WP:ILL#Method.-- Arxiloxos ( talk) 02:14, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
Brilliant! esp. the singing ghosts pic, which is really funny - thanks so much. I must get the DVD / read the book.
By the way, I am happy to translate more Austrian film-related articles (or German ones), if there are any more you'd like done - I find them very interesting, but usually I just pick them at random, without any system, as and when something happens to catch my eye. So if there are any that you think are important, also bitte! All best, HeartofaDog ( talk) 15:23, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
Otto, I am really sorry not to reply before, but I forgot to watch your page, and then got sidetracked. But I have read it now. I have done a translation of the German article on Maskerade - see Maskerade (film). I suspect that this doesn't do it justice - there must be more to add on why it is such a good film. Any more specific suggestions? (I promise to watch the page better). In the meantime I'll follow up your ideas. All best, HeartofaDog ( talk) 00:55, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
Hi Otto - hope all is well, and good to hear from you. I'm just back from a weekend away, and am happy to have a go at the above in the next couple of days - I'll leave you a note when it's done. Best wishes! HeartofaDog ( talk) 01:01, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi - The article Otto Wolff AG is up for deletion on the English-language Wikipedia. At the moment it is a little weak on independent sources. I note you created the Otto Wolff AG article on the German Wikipedia. If you have time and you have an interest in this topic, and if you have access to German language sources, a small contribution to this article would be very welcome! Thanks! - Crosbiesmith ( talk) 11:36, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
