Ladies and gentleman, SPECTRE is now offering canoeing lessons to anybody interested in seemingly disappearing off the planet for five frickin years like jelly belly Harold frickin Bishop or more recently the 19th century scientist of world reknown Darwin. The Panamanian SPECTRE World Canoeing Championships will be held on January 1 2008 where my organnization will be offering people a chance to disappear and "extort" money in hiding in some hidden cave beneath the lake where they will be able to hide until 2013. SPECTRE guarantees you will not remember a thing, although all wives will be informed of developments.

"$ 1 million" or the "Alan Parsons Project" will indeed go into "phasing"

Warning. If you are visiting with tagging for images or have some "frickin" criticism you are likely to hear an amplified response of my elk or my alligator with irritable bowel syndrome coming out of one of the vents in my Japanese volcano previously owned by Hirohito. This organization does not tolerate bitching and the last thing my evil operation wants to do is attend Wiki Councils and be "extorted" by councillors. For those people without a funny bone in their body and for those out there that are as solemn as dust, I urge you to participate in some bearded Yak racing it'll change you forever. If these rules are not acknowledged I am likely to dispatch my metric tonne weighing henchman Israel Kamakawiwoʻole to sit on you personally and play you a nice relaxing and breezy old Hawaiian song to take a chill pill and lighten up.
Other than this His Baldness welcomes you with loving arms.

Answer why

Because people are simply very very keen to ruin others' work. Please see WP:INB. Amarrg tried so hard to invalidate the reviews by saying that they aren't a general reception of her performance. He was looking for many criticisms (for roles which were described in the article as praised), and he found. But he didn't took into account the fact that for every negative review I can back up 5. That's what I did. See Talk:Preity Zinta#Reviews. I tried to give an analysis. If you can, have a look at the thread and give your comments. Unfairness and injustice is ugly to me. I'm losing all hopes to make this article good. See also the peer review of Zinta and what Amarrg was saying there. That Taran Adarsh is not a good critic because he gave low ratings for good films (citing different blogs). LOL. And now he tries to fins criticisms for Zinta to invalidate them and to remove everything. The article has now many negative reviews I just don't get how can people be so unkind. Just honestly and openly want to ruin others' work. It's unfair! Shahid • ^Talk2me 21:33, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OMG he really freaks me out.... But now I'm thinking of what will happen with the Zinta article. I won't remove reviews because of some users' POV. God, it's so sad!:( Shahid • ^Talk2me 22:56, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Great! Enjoy :) Shahid • ^Talk2me 23:16, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, amazing work pal! And congrats for the 90,000!!! It's just huge!!! Yeh, I'm now creating an article for one of his films, it's time to remove the red links from his filmo. Regards:) Shahid • ^Talk2me 22:32, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes!!! Italian women are amazing! They have an amazing and very unique charm, and I find their loud speaking manner very attractive. I think Sophia Loren is an amazing actress isn't she? I think Italian culture is very interesting, they have a very widespread cinema and their music is excellent. Toto Cutugno is an excellent singer and was doing very well even in Indian radio charts. But I don't see why you have to move to Italy. You live in the UK. It's great! Shahid • ^Talk2me 14:40, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: Plans

Yeh I see, it was really weird. It's apparent that she is here to make firends.

As you know, I've expanded Salman Khan's page, and there is much work to do, and I will. I've expanded Kajol's page, but it's still short, considering the fact that she is the most successful actress of the 90s (along with Madhuri Dixit, whose page is also disaster. Almost all her films are either super hits ot blockbusters; the audience adores her)..

Cleaned-up Ajay Devgan's and Saif Ali Khan's articles yesterday. I've been working today on Rekha's article, adding refs and some info. And added some info to Preity.

My plans are: Still going on Salman, Kajol, Rekha, Manisha. Starting on Madhuri, the great Urmila (she is just an icon) and Akshay Kumar etc. Oh, and of course creating articles for all of their films in the days coming. Also want to create the article for Godfrey Fillips National Bravery Awards (remember? Preity won one for her guts to testify against the mafia). Every year people get awards there for their courage. Someone fought a lion to rescue a child!!!! Some old woman also did something. That's amazing...

Good plans no? Shahid • ^Talk2me 21:39, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeh exactly. Why did you move my message?

The bravery awards are just amazing. It's an annual ceremoby, every year given to someone. Preity won for testifying against the mafia. See what she says about others and what other people won for: "Meeting a 17-year-old girl, who has saved 10 men from drowning, or a woman, who wrestled with a leopard to save a little boy, makes you feel humble; I don’t want the spotlight. I want their bravery to have a voice."

Leopard!!!! It's unvelievable! As you say, R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Preity is the only Bollywood actor to win the award. Shahid • ^Talk2me 21:50, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Southeast Asian cinema task force

Yes well, I was disappointed the new task force wasn't mentioned in the November newsletter, and have just left a note with Nehrams about that. I honestly didn't think I needed to suggest that it be included. Perhaps my expectations of the coordinator/editors are too high. As far as spamming other users, begging them to join the project, I have mixed feelings about that. I figure, if they really care about the cinema of a certain country or region, then they will join. Or maybe they won't. Maybe they'll continue to make solid contributions about the region's films without being a member of the project, then they are still helping the project. Anyway, I see the project as more of an administrative tool, just to get a better handle on the level of quality articles on the region's films. Hopefully, long after I've done my final edit on Wikipedia, the project will still be around, keeping track of things. — WiseKwai 08:14, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've cleaned up most of it. But more use of the DVD is needed. Do you have it? Vikrant Phadkay 13:21, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Saw the THUN promo pic. 5 in 1 is just excellent. Vikrant Phadkay 13:55, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

but rather than this film's making DVD, I would prioritise GoldenEye, as nothing but production is left to expand in it. Vikrant Phadkay 13:55, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not much of a difference, see I placed it. Vikrant Phadkay 14:03, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. this one, The Man With..., and The World Is.. are partly close to GA. Vikrant Phadkay 14:08, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Translation of Schloss Vaduz

“

Schloss Vaduz (German for "Vaduz Castle") is the official residence of the Prince of Liechtenstein. The Palace is named after the town Vaduz, the capital of Liechtenstein, which it overlooks from an adjacent hilltop.

The earliest mention of the castle can be found in the deed of the Count Rudolf von Werdenberg-Sargans for a sale to Ulrich von Matsch. The then owners - presumably also the builders - were the Counts of Werdenberg-Sargans.

The Bergrfried (12th century) and parts of the east-side are the oldest. The tower stands upon a piece of ground of about 12 x 13 m and has a wall density on the ground floor of up to 4 metres. The original entrance lay at the Hofzijde at an 11 meter height. De chapel St. Anna is presumably built in the Middle Ages as well. The main altar is late-gothic. In the Schwabenwar of 1499 the castle burned by the honorbound of Switzerland. From 1529 to 1532 the ____ were built. De west-side was bexpanded on by Count Kaspar van Hohenems (1613-1640).

Since 1712 the castle is property of the royals of Liechtenstein. From 1712 to 1732 the castle served as ____, but the largest part of the building still detoriated. Under the rule of Johannes II (1840-1929) the castle was restored from 1905 to 192. It was later expanded to use as a home by Frans Jozef II (1906-1989).

Since 1938 the castle is the primary residence of the royal family. The castle can not be visited.

Replaceable fair use Image:SantaClaus'reindeer.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:SantaClaus'reindeer.gif. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria.

Images

I figured it out the other day, by looking at the fair use of a Juan Peron picture. I've uploaded images for Argentine international footballers up to G so far, keeping a list of ones that I couldn't find. I've recently taken to emailing club websites, who have usually been quite helpful in providing stats, I'll see if they have any pictures they wouldn't mind donating once I've gone through all the footballers, I'm still working to fill up {{seasons in Argentine football}}, pretty hard work for a 2 finger typer like me and the transfer window is going to open soon, unleashing a month of chaos, I set up WP:ArF to try and organise the process a bit, but most people seem to have lost interest over the months. I just noticed your question about the patronising purple box, I took it off because visitors to your page would have to be dead not to see that it's not 100% serious. Regards, King of the North East 20:02, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah..

No probs. I'll add it now? I feel so much better creating new articles. Expanding the encyclopedia, giving credit to those directors and actors who worked on this film. I'm really impressed with your quick way to add the rationale. It ia very well written and explained. How do you get it so fast? Where do you get this format from?

Oh I love guitars! I love their look, form, shape, sound etc. I like bass guitars, especially in ballads, but I mostly enjoy listening to the spanish guitar. Wow, that's just hair raising.

Mining in South Africa

Thanks - It was a good pick for the list, and I too was surprised it hadn't been written yet. I wanted to work on a redlink rather than an existing article, and it seemed like a good fit. I'm still planning on expanding it some more, particularly tomorrow if the strike happens - I might even see if I can get it mentioned on the "In the news" section of the main page.

Deforestation in Brazil

Well, why didn't you self-nominate Deforestation in Brazil for DYK? It looks like a good article, that I would have liked to see on DYK.

Sir

As always your user and talk page leave me flabbbergasted - I am in the middle of an almost 6 month hiatus - I will notify the approrpriate authorities - however it appears that anhtropology as a profession has gone silent in australian affairs - it is an issue of concern that I find totaly mystifying - I have no idea what they are up to collectively - or individually - either brought out, sold out or dying as a breed - not sure which - cheers- have a very safe christmas Satu Suro 22:20, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Being a circumspect oz Who has just been culture shocked by returning to australia from three days in singapore - but thats a very long story - I am indeed impressed and heartened by your sheer bravado visually and your lack of what might be considered the conservative nature of the average wikipedian - it is a positive response if you havent got my drift - long may your style and its attendant visual impact continue on our stage of unreality (ie wikipedia) - says me with the equivalent of one sunflower to boot :) Satu Suro 22:26, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Coaches Comment

Thanks for reviewing the stub articles of Southwestern College Moundbuilders football coaches. I am working with the College Football Project in Wikipedia with the small college efforts to build articles around coaches and programs for small colleges.

The idea is to get them started with simple stubs, and as college football fans across Wikipedia from different schools build their coaches pages, we can coordinate more easily. Some small college coaches do go on to become major college coaches (for example Dennis Franchione). Plus, we want to be sure to have historical records from the "golden age" of college football.

You're right, though. We should have more than just the records (and plan to) as collaboration builds.--Paul McDonald 18:18, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

George Bogle, hello, and all the news that's fit to print from Cooktown

Hi Ernst! Sorry I haven't replied earlier. Things have been hectic around here and very, very hot. We are a bit inland and in the forest so our temps are usually a couple of degrees cooler than Cooktown itself which has had 4 days straight of 40 degress and over (a definite record since they started keeping count here back in the 1870s) - but we have also had three days over 37 - our previous record (and one day it went up to 39.4 in the house) and at times it has been muggy as well (which means - seeing as we don't have airconditioning - that I drip all over my computer and so have to turn it off by mid-morning at the latest).

I was going to write a few letters last night but then the termites started swarming - so I had to turn off all the inside lights and just leave one on outdoors to attract them there. Oh, the trials of living in the bush!!! But all is well here otherwise. We have been trying to get a young pet wallaby accustomed to the bush (it was hand-reared by a friend of ours who rescued her after her mother was killed by a car), and it seems to be going well - she is just coming in each morning now for some milk and sweet potato and lots of TLC. She is so beautiful and cute - but she will be much better off running with the wild wallabies on our property than with us.

No word back from the publishers about my book recently - I am beginning to get annoyed they are taking so long to make decisions (will it be 2 vols or 3? What size pages? etc., etc., etc.) It seems to be taking forever. I have had a read of your excellent and timely Deforestation in Brazil aricle. Great work!!! Are you working on any other articles with a environmental slant? I have just added in the words "carbon dioxide" for those (maybe schoolkids???) who may not know what CO2 is. It was the only thing I could think of to improve it - it is truly a fine article! Great work, mate!

We are all excited here with our new government which is just off to the international conference on climate change and emmissions in Bali with our new PM, Rudd, the new Treasurer, new Minister for Climate Change and Water, Penny Wong (a brilliant Malaysian-born lesbian Chinese woman - our first Minister who is openly gay and, moreover, is a female and Asian as well which gives me some faint hope now for the future of this country!, plus our new minister for the environment, Peter Garrett (an ex-rock star - the lead of Midnight Oil). They have already signed up to the Kyoto protocol (meaning the U.S. now stands totally alone in not signing it) as their first act of government! Our last PM - Howard - the self-proclaimed "Deputy Sheriff" to Bush and climate change denier even lost his own seat, which he had held for 33 consecutive years - and to a woman he detests! I must say I have taken some comfort from this ;^)

So, greetings from me (and thanks for your continuing fine efforts on the Wikipedia. Hope all is well with you. Cheers, John Hill (talk) 00:10, 6 December 2007 (UTC) PS where are you living now - in Argentina- or where?[reply]

Hey thanks! Yeh, I'm planning to create some article with a DYK question, I'll do it later.

As for films, you can do nothing with that. Most of the users create articles for only films they like which they think are great. Only brilliant editors like you worry for removing red links, and create articles of films which they haven't even seen. But don't worry, with the awareness of Wikipedia on the net, the work doesn't stop.

Well he says that it's not official; he says it's a private award and not an official ceremony by the govt. of India. See my discussion with him on his talk page.

It's a pitty that the freat Rohini Hattangadi wasn't nominated for her sterling performance. She's a great actress. I will later clean-up her article. What do you think, will Tabbu win an Oscar for her performance in The Namesake (film)? She will be nominated, that's for sure, but what do you think will she win? She deserved it. She won two National Film Awards, which is the most difficult and prestigious award to win in India!!! (though Filmfare Awards is the most prestigious award in Bollywood, the National Film Award are the most difficult awards the win, given by the govt. of India, judged by a pannel of distinguished jury members, and it awards not only Bollywood films but every possible Indian movie in every possible language. It's a very very difficult award to win, believe me, even more than Oscar.) Shahid • ^Talk2me 15:26, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would say that no-one could question your productivity though, 11,000 new articles and counting isn't it?

I stumbled across an article you created with the {{Placeunderconstruction}} tag on the 15th of September, 2007, a one-line article about a place in Tibet. Looking at your contribution history, it seems that you created a very, very large number of articles in that time frame, all with those tags. Can you remove those tags from the articles, or recruit a bot to do so in one of your wikiprojects? I was going to do it myself, but the sheer volume of them is overwhelming.

New film project

Hi, Blofeld. Thought you'd like to know I've just started a Wikipedia:WikiProject Korea/Film. Hopefully it'll help improve the category & articles. I've also added all the Category:South Korean films to the List of South Korean films. As I suspected, the articles lean far to the current films, ignoring many important older films. I'm red-linking some at the list and will start the articles when time permits. Cheers! Dekkappai (talk) 20:00, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I missed your note earlier, Blofeld-- Ah... Shagging is what you had in mind! Sorry for being so dense. If you're scheming to get some sort of POV-violation out me, tough luck! Looks a bit on the bony side though... ;) Ahem. About renaming the Korea film project: However you think most appropriate or standard with relation to the other projects is fine with me. I wonder if a North-east Asian film project might be too broad, as editors have their own countries of interest... Though, I suppose we could specialize within the umbrella project... So I don't know... I'll try to fill in those earlier red-linked films, and eventually we should have a pretty good spread, throughout the years, on Korean film. At present it's all late-1990s and 2000s though. Dekkappai (talk) 23:28, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A task force encompassing all of East Asian cinema would be huge. Japan and Korea have big enough industries to be task forces unto themselves. Whether there are enough editors to support them is the question. Myself, I'm task forced out, with film festivals and SE Asia. I've noticed that all Chinese-language films - be they from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan or elsewhere - are being added to the Chinese film task force. This is something that might make editors of articles on Taiwanese and Hong Kong films a bit queasy. — WiseKwai 09:51, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Right, I think we're all pretty much in agreement that the proposed East Asia task force would be too broad. I don't think having the separate national cinema task forces prevents us in any way from seeing that there's a general conformity as far as format & style though... And this applies to articles on all of cinema, not just East Asia. About Kim Jong-il, though, Blofeld-- actually, he's known as an extreme film-fan. He dabbled in film-making and film-theory earlier in his life, and he even went to the rather extreme measure of having prominent South Korean film-makers kidnapped to produce quality films for the North! It's too bad there's so little information available on the cinema of the North, it would be very interesting to find out what's going on there... Dekkappai (talk) 17:32, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Great work on the Korean cinema project, Blofeld! I'll work on the details later when I get the chance. You want me to add more red-link films to the earlier years, is that right? Rather than IMDB, I think Koreafilm.org might be a better place to start for that, since they pick out the more important films for each year. Once we get a good foundation of the important films, we can add the rest. My thought anyway. Dekkappai (talk) 17:42, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

About adding the transliteration of the Korean titles, as in South Korean films of 1975-- I really don't think either the transliteration or the original Korean are necessary in these lists, since they will be provided in the film articles when they are started. The possibility of confusing which film (because of different translations) will be solved by adding the director and one or two cast members in the listing.

Great image of Altan Khan! Thanks so much - it really makes the article! I have just added a couple of short notes to the article on the Buryats which may clear up a bit about their origins and rapid expansion. Sorry, no time to do anymore at the moment (will try to get back to it again sometime - but I have a long list of other edits to do) - and now I must be off to town for Xmas shopping and mailing! And it is HOT today again! (Oh, by the way, it does seem strange at first having Christmas when it is hot - but you do adjust and slow down and usually just spend the day eating too many prawns and cold meats and drinking too much with your friend or family.

Image source problem with Image:Heinrich von Vietinghoff.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Heinrich von Vietinghoff.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Unfortunately, I'm not a GA reviewer, so I can't really address the status of the article directly. As soon as I finish tagging for the new Brunei, Laos, and Thailand groups, or Monday, whichever comes first, I'm going to review the article and go over the phrasing to try to remove any unusual sentence structures, and then when I'm done nominate it for GA. I think probably the only drawback right now might still be some unusual phrasing, but that was a big drawback earlier, and I want to ensure that it doesn't come up to bite us again.; I'm going to address that matter when I finish the new groups, or Monday, whichever comes first.

I loved the fact that the image was captured just as the sheep is about to leap or skip or whatever a sheep does. This is so wierd but my star sign is an Aries and the image is of the sheep of which the male equivalent is the ram which co-incides with my star sign! HA!

Yes, I actually had a look at the work on the film pages. I great effort by you I must say!

Im on holiday right now but I've still got loads of work from university. I'll get it done, hopefully! Great to hear from you too -- Pa7 13:45, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it should get done. There's so many films to put in for Indian cinema, that it gets quite tiresome. It will get done, Im determined to get it done! -- Pa7 13:48, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, 1974 is nearly done. Im gonna get started ASAP. Also I might work backwards from there. Im not really worried about the 2000 films cause everybody nearly contributes for those films. I might go back to the 50s or 60s, cause I think fewer films were produced then so it would be easier to get it done. -- Pa7 13:52, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah definently, I think by laying the basic structure then people can get filling. I honestly dunno much about the golden oldies so there might someone who does that can fill some bits in, luckily IMDB helps! -- Pa7 13:54, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Grooovyyy! The years you pointed out are much deprived, but I also agree that the oldies are ignored. I dunno any films produced in the 30s and 40s. Maybe if I start filling in the oldies (30s and 40s), then you can seperate them for their individual pages. That should get people to start filling in the rest (hopefully!). It won't take long to fill in the 30s and 40 because not many films were produced then. What do you think? Or should I carry on from the 70s? -- Pa7 14:01, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SILLY ME!! There are not that many films in the 1930s, what's the point in seperating! Nevertheless, added two films produced in 1930. -- Pa7 14:07, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmmmm, looks like some background research has to be done then. For now, Im gonna use IMDB to fill in the majority of the titles, after that I can do some research into the oldies. -- Pa7 14:43, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bollywood

I'm afraid I'm not the right person to write about Bollywood's history. To make that, you need have some books, not only sites, and you must have some additional knowledge of the matter. Unfortunately, all my books are in India. I have no books here. Plus, the Bollywood article is in serious lack of sources. It has to be improved first.

As for the template,, mmm I really don't know. You want to add awards? It's fine by me but there are too many award ceremonies in India so I guess it will just load the template. It needs something better. By now, I generally like the template. Regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 15:53, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed very nice book.. I'll talk to you later. Shahid • ^Talk2me 16:12, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Blof, I need a little advice regarding the Zinta article. Going through several FAs, I bumped into Bette Davis's article which has a line which says that several of her lines became well known. It reminded me of Zinta in Dil Se, when she asked Shahrukg Khan if he was virgin. I thought to add it, because the article says that she was noticed for the forthright character she played and this line was very famous... So I rewrote it like this:

"Featuring Zinta as a middle class Delhi girl, Preeti Nair, the film was considered to be an unusual launch for a newcomer, as her role called for twenty minutes of screen time.[15] However, she was eventually noticed for her role, particularly for the forthright character she played;[11] her scene with Khan, which had her asking him, "Are you a virgin?", became well known and her portrayal earned her a Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award nomination."

Please tell me, what do you say? Although you're not editing this page anymore, I can't stop asking you for advices.:) regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 19:35, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOL I think you didn't notice my message. Shahid • ^Talk2me 20:07, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry I've found a great way to shut their mouths... Remember Amarrg's concerns re reviews on the noticeboard with all the majority opinion etc? Well, he opted out after I'd done this (the majority opinion on each film is presented in this link)! And even supported me... He seems to be a good editor. He wrote the article Mysore, which is currently an FAC. Shahid • ^Talk2me 20:37, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Great, enjoy your music. Indeed very nice:) Shahid • ^Talk2me 20:52, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WOW, looking at your history page, I'm surprised to see that you haven't had too many contributions today:) Shahid • ^Talk2me 21:02, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOL I have so many Hindi Cassetes and CDs that it would take me the whole they to count them if I wanted to... Apart from this, I hate remixes and DJ versions of old Bollywood songs. Just can't bear it... LOL. I can't live without music, no matter what country and what genre. Shahid • ^Talk2me 13:23, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of Serbian films

no problem, Serbian films are part of Yugoslav cinema from 1919-2003 Vladar86 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 19:52, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

imdb index of the Yugoslavian films is not very good because some films are tagged as Yugoslavia, Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Serbia and Montenegro or Serbia (and search engine can not search movies as Serbia and Montenegro). Also there should be noted in wiki list that Yugoslavia (1919-1991) and Yugoslavia (1991-2003) are basically different country —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vladar86 (talk • contribs) 20:35, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of Korean films

Hi, Blofeld. I'm working on the lists. I finished the '60s yesterday, and am downloading info so that I can work tonight and should have a lot to post tomorrow. I really appreciate your setting up these articles! I've been taking out alternate titles, extra entry room, etc., since when I'm editing I don't usually use these-- No offence implied or taken, I hope! Dekkappai (talk) 22:34, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Am Sklavenmarkt

Hy! Why do you think that exactly "Am Sklavenmarkt" could/should/would be the first austrian movie? "Am Sklavenmarkt" was first mentioned in a catalogue of 1907. In this catalogue about 20 other films were mentioned too. As far as I know, it is not possible to say which of this films was produced first. I think it would be better to write an article about Johann Schwarzers Saturn Film company, which was the brand he used for the production and distribution of his movies. Also see de:Saturn Film - there I published the full list of films produced by Saturn Film, including the date when the films came out first - as known sources say. All that information were published in the book of the Filmarchiv Austria, which I used as source: Michael Achenbach, Paolo Caneppele, Ernst Kieninger: Projektionen der Sehnsucht: Saturn, die erotischen Anfänge der österreichischen Kinematografie. Filmarchiv Austria, Wien 2000, ISBN 3901932046. -- Otto Normalverbraucher (talk) 12:49, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cinema of Palestine

Hey, Thanks for your note and for a great template; {{CinemaofPalestine}}! Sorry if I used the Palestinianfilmlist template wrongly (I was just so happy to see a new Pal. template; not too many of them). And I have now included "Cinema" in the {{Palestinians}} template; hopefully that will also generate some more interest in the subject. Regards, Huldra (talk) 13:04, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Germany and Austria

Hi Blo, I'm currently adding infoboxes to all German municipalities, whacking my way through Rhineland-Palatinate again, helped by Ksnow. And I'm checking which articles are missing for Austrian municipalities. See the relevant wikiproject pages, Wikipedia:WikiProject Austria/Cities and Wikipedia:WikiProject Germany/Cities.

Barbecue Bob

Wow, how did you come up with such a detailed rationale for the use of that photo? Badagnani (talk) 23:04, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good. As far as I know, there is only one known photographic image of Barbecue Bob. In my opinion, the use of such an archival photo can only help promote knowledge of this musician (and probably also increase sales of his recordings). Badagnani (talk) 23:12, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Samba County

Hi, I noticed that you created Samba County and redirect Saga County to Sa'gya County. But there is no Samba County, and Saga is a different county from Sa'gya. I think that the Samba County should be moved to Saga County and have placed the moving request at Wikipedia:Requested moves. You can participate in the discussion at Talk:Samba County. Thanks. --Neo-Jay (talk) 07:29, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I thought you may like to maintain the edit history of Samba County. Therefore I requested to move it to Saga County at Wikipedia:Requested moves. It's fine for me that you asked for speedy deletion of it. Thank you for your great contributions on Tibet-related articles. --Neo-Jay (talk) 11:59, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good job! Best wishes.--Neo-Jay (talk) 17:10, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think you mean Baqên Town. Well, according to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Chinese), the town's name should be XX Town, not XX (town). I just follow the rules. --Neo-Jay (talk) 17:28, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is already Chinese name for Dêlêg in the infobox. I am wondering why the settlement type cannot be showed in the infobox.--Neo-Jay (talk) 18:20, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am a Chinese and can help add the Chinese names to the infobox. The template in Zhengzhou can show the settlement type but those in Baqên Town and Dêlêg cannot. I am totally confused.--Neo-Jay (talk) 18:29, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Love of Siam

LGBT or not, they are all just films, and so are the same in my eyes. Anyway, in contemporary Thai cinema, LGBT films are hard to avoid. Seems like every other film released this year had a homosexual theme. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I've had lots of Thai film DYK's. There are a bunch listed at the SEA film task force. I need to add Love of Siam to the list. I saw that Laotian task force get started. Hard to believe there is not a general WikiProject for Thailand, though there have been a couple geographical-based projects, which under the new guidelines would actually be taskforces. I'd love to see a WP Thailand started up, and there is probably enough interest without having to cajole people into signing up, but I haven't the time or energy right now to get involved in the groundwork and organization. Someday, maybe, I might. — WiseKwai 12:06, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah. I hope it can be a full-fledged project, and not just a taskforce of WP Southeast Asia. But anything will do at this point. I think I might have had an image of Pen-ek Ratanaruang on the front page for a DYK. LGBT films have been a growing trend in Thai cinema. Ever since the wild popularity of the Iron Ladies, film companies have been happy to cash in. Not all have been flattering portrayals. Most are stereotyped and coarse, and it's that kind of humor that seems to do very well at the domestic box office. — WiseKwai 13:41, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thailand

There is a page for the Thailand work group at Wikipedia:WikiProject Southeast Asia/Thailand work group. Actually, there are now separate work group pages for every independent country on the planet and several territories, although I admit I haven't gotten around to adjusting all the banners for the multiple assessments yet and I'm still waiting for another editor to complete the frankly frightening task of completing the Africa project banner. I'll try to adjust the banners to display all the relevant work groups, or, probably, have someone else do that, as it's still a bit beyond me, but I think that might be the best way to go at least initially. Once the work groups get "big" enough for a separate project, then it would probably make more sense to discuss completely separating out as separate, stand-alone WikiProjects. John Carter (talk) 14:42, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the notice boards of Singapore and the Philippines have already set themselves up for assessments, so they more or less qualify as projects, and will probably have to be included as such. And I've started the revisions at User:Warlordjohncarter/Preity Zinta, rewriting it into what strikes me as standard English. I'll maybe be done by the end of today. Then we can have interested editors look at it and decide which version to go with, and then nominate the finished product for GA, peer review, and, if we're lucky, FA.

Question on film lists

Hi, Blofeld. I've been wondering if there should be a field for Release Date-- maybe replacing the "Notes" section, which is pretty open-ended, and the films put in order by date of release? Any thoughts? Dekkappai (talk) 19:00, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK-- Nothing that needs to be done right away. Almost done with the Korean film lists & will start blue-linking soon. Dekkappai (talk) 19:05, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Burma geography stubs

Well, I would be one of those people, though I haven't been especially active of late, and am likely to be even less so until the second week of January, at the earliest.

Burma-geo- certainly doesn't need split at the moment, and indeed is really much too small to be split successfully. If you're planning on creating lots and lots of new Burma location stubs, and are suggesting this in anticipation of future need, then a) good thinking, and b) I'd suggest the creation of per-division upmerged templates, until each is "big enough to be out on their own". I'd certain;y be able to help with that. Sound like a plan? Alai (talk) 02:13, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Coqen County

Hola amigo! Great to see you are still working on the Tibetan material - so much still needs to be done. I like the box (although if you could use a lighter shade of blue for the county it would probably look better) - but, otherwise it is great! Useful work! Gracias!

I have also been busy, creating two new related articles on Lhamo La-tso (lake) and Chokorgyel Monastery and adding a lot to the old stub on the goddess-protector of Tibet, Palden Lhamo. I think you will enjoy the quote near the end of that article about Queen Victoria! Quite bizarre! Felicidad Navidad y uno Año Nuevo Prospero! Hasta pronto! Su amigo, Juan de la Sud.
