George[edit]

Thanks for keeping me in mind. Even though that's not quite the answer I had in mind, every datapoint helps. And Happy New Year. Bunthorne 04:28, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good edits to this article. Thanks. I have two beefs, though:

  1. The removal of the word Nazi to describe the air raid. It's useful to describe who was dropping the aerial bomb.
  2. The removal of the ", the Examiner believes," from the description Ann's suicide. The dialogue of the film clearly shows that Henry did not persuade, or try to persuade, Ann to kill herself (quite the contrary; he tried to dissuade her, repeatedly), and that she joined him entirely voluntarily.

Cheers. Robert K S 11:46, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why the quibble Nazi vs. German? I mean, what do you see as the distinction? Also, it's rather a major point of the movie that the Examiner doesn't understand that Anne's suicide was also voluntary. She protests and protests and he will hear nothing of it. Do you still have your game on tape? If you were to send it to me for the Archive, I'd enter it and return it to you. (I've done this for a number of other players.) Thanks! Robert K S 23:38, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
(1) nobody who goes on Jeopardy! is dumb—you have to be both a trivia genius and fairly telegenic to pass the audition process—and (2), if you didn't want it on the net, why'd you post it to the talk page of a person who runs a Jeopardy! archive? Unless it's from an early season, odds are we'll have the game in there eventually, (but it would be nice to get it from a player). Cheers! Robert K S 06:48, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lincoln/Bush[edit]

Why did you try to claim I was comparing Bush to Lincoln. I believe it is rather obvious that I was comparing Licoln's push to attack the Confederacy to Polk's push to attack Mexico, the endless years of the Civil War to the way the Mexican-American War kept expanding and expanding, and the public dislike of Lincoln while he was President to the public dislike of Polk while he was President. I just don't see how that all relates to Bush. --Kainaw (talk) 06:35, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

MTM statue[edit]

I took the photo myself. If you can find a better free one, let me know. Wahkeenah 19:06, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip. I'm thinking my photo could go on that page instead, as it really doesn't add much to the MTM page, and the statue photo from that page could go in its place, as you suggested. That picture of mine was merely trying to be "artistic". I have a "normal" shot of the statue, of course... and it's no better looking than the one in the Honors section. Can't be the picture, must be the statue. :) Wahkeenah 01:57, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Wahkeenah 06:46, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Claudette Colbert[edit]

Hi, with regards to your comment about the trivia at Talk:Claudette Colbert, I wonder if you would mind helping me. I've requested semi-protection for this page but as soon as I make an edit, it gets reverted. Yesterday I removed the entire trivia section and today it's back. If you don't mind, could you please stop by once in a while. I'm fighting an uphill battle against POV and poorly sourced material, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Rossrs 06:49, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

I just wanted to thank you for answering my question --3322 03:29, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Same Old Garbage, Different Bag[edit]

Hey Clarity,

I truly appreciated your comment concerning that ugly discussion that went on concerning money being the "True God of the Jews". Though I'm fairly sure you recognized it, for Clarity's sake (pun intended!) I do hope you realize that my response (in suggesting Barringa rephrase the question) was entirely and completely facetious. The question was indeed one of the most disgusting questions I've ever come across at Wikipedia, yet, I suppose you can say I have a rather off-beat way of responding to this sort of thing. Rather than react with honest disgust, I often choose to play along facetiously.

Your far more direct comment was 100% on the money, and was actually very close to the point I was trying to make: that these days, though it's unfashionable to be directly anti-semitic, rephrase the question as an attack upon Israeli policy rather than a direct attack on Jews, and you've basically said the same thing, only in a far more politically correct way.

In any case, though we may not agree on everything, I'm pretty sure we're of the same mind on this one. And besides, as a fellow Canadian, you have to like me, right? :-) Loomis 14:34, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the fix at the Wallenberg article, are you going to vote on it? --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 16:41, 15 February 2007 (UTC) Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Raoul Wallenberg You can vote either way, or ask for more changes to the article. The more people looking the better. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 16:49, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wallenberg[edit]

You need to add your comments here: Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Raoul Wallenberg. Cheers. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 18:26, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I need you help at the candidate page listed above. The person demanding that lists be removed or turned to prose is wrong, but I need someone to back me up. There doesn't appear to be any rule saying no bulleted lists in featured articles. And looking over past articles every one seems to have a bulleted list or a non bulleted version of short paragraphs. Most also contain tables.

Take a new peek and use some of your clarity skills again. I had to add more info and now I thing it lost the smooth transition between sentences.

Good work! Its getting very hard to edit with all the references inline. You have a flair for writing. Do you write professionally?

Meg Ryan[edit]

Hello! I really liked your re-writes to the Meg Ryan page. You really improved the article. I may re-insert the "giggling & doing chin ups" phrase. I see you are from Canada, so you may not realize what an incredibly popular commercial that was in the U.S. Meg was a very young brunette at that time, and most people are somewhat taken aback when they realize SHE was the "Tickle Girl". I just think it's an interesting point, that "rings bells" with American readers. Well, I digress. Thanks for your contributions to the article. Please, come back and visit us any time! Thanks! Cleo123 06:55, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LOL!!! Thanks for pointing that out! Shame on me! LOL! Yes, people pay me to write - shame on them! LOL! Cheers! Cleo123 07:36, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SF edits[edit]

Congratulations on your excellently written and well judged synopses of Citizen of the Galaxy and The Stars are Ours!. I am interested in the statement that Heinlein was influenced by Kim. If you wrote this, can you tell me if there is further information on it? I've noticed that a whole school of SF was inspired by Kim, but I didn't notice the Heinlein connection. Thanks. Zaslav 06:17, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The new subtitles are good. Re Kim vs. Citizen of the Galaxy, I see the connections differently, but mostly, I wanted a source. Will search elsewhere. Zaslav 09:38, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Twin peaks[edit]

Re; this thread, could you please leave your gender bias and generalisations at home? Anchoress 20:03, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How is this gender bias? Or are you claiming lesbians or bisexuals don't exist? Granted, I assumed the poster was a male. I consider this a reasonable assumption since there was no mention otherwise, which I would have expected if a female were asking. My advice, given in good faith, would have been the same regardless of the gender of the poster. Clarityfiend 20:19, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
So, your advice to a female teenager would be that you'd be concerned if she weren't preoccupied with mammary glands? And BTW the (small) percentage of gay and bi females would be offset by the (small) percentage of gay and bi males. And actually, it would be more likely for a female teenage milk drinker to be disturbed enough by a burgeoning fascination with breasts to be concerned enough about it to seek advice. Anchoress 20:24, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As I have already said, I assumed a heterosexual female teenager would have stated that important fact. So, yes, it is normal for a heterosexual male or a homosexual female. Why are you trying to pick a fight? Have I exhibited a history of gender insensitivity? Clarityfiend 20:37, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not trying to pick a fight, but despite everything you said, I stand by my conclusion about gender bias and generalisation. Anchoress 20:44, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

References[edit]

I use references simply to cite where the information came from. Common sense information that may not need a reference is so subjective as far as I'm concerned. That is to say, if there's info and and a reference can be placed, I place it. The IMDb ref is also a good way to display the importance of references to non-experiencd Wikepedians and readers. In the hundred of film articles and film bios I've work/started I do place the IMDb ref as much as possible. The articles I've edited have been later edited by very, very experienced editors and not once was my ref cite removed. Recently an article I started (the film: The Dove (1974 film) was nominted on DYK. As such, many solid editors touched up the article and no one deleted the IMdb reference. Finally, there is no policy against my IMDb reference cite, so please if there is no policy against it (and I say Wiki encourages it) I beg you to please do not reverse. My current project is to bring up to a decent shape all the films listed in the documentary: Visions of Light. Thank you. Luigibob 03:50, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Black Swan[edit]

You seem to be injecting your opinions fairly heavily in this article. I don't understand what your big objection is to mentioning the wonderful commentary on this DVD??? Have you bothered to even hear it??? There is nothing against wiki standards with any of this. PLEASE LEAVE THE ARTICLE ALONE. FrankWilliams 16:49, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just noticed your great work cleaning up and improving my writing on the plot summary. Nice job. κaτaʟavenoTC 14:21, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that scene was definitely the most memorable to me, I was laughing so hard my side hurt. Just wondering, why didn't you include it in your summary ? StuRat 07:17, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

American Film Institutes 100 series.[edit]

I am sure you have read AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies list but have you seen the page? It seems like there could be more explanation of related lists and criticism of it.

Inside joke?[edit]

Hi, Clarityfiend. You made a comment on a thread that resulted from a question of mine on the reference desk. I think the comment included some kind of inside joke (if that's the case, then I'm definitely one on the outside), but, as I some times have some trouble understanding what people write in English, it could have been that what you said was a reference for all of us to understand and I just couldn't get it. Here is the comment:

Could also be that sissy Phus. I wouldn't want to spend eternity toiling away at a thankless job that has no end. Hmmm...is it just me or does this sound strangely familiar? Clarityfiend 07:31, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

The sentence that I am talking about is the last one. I don't know what is the thing that is strangely familiar. A.Z. 02:10, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your explanation! What about splitting Sissyphus? It was just because it's funny, right? A.Z. 02:23, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

nous[edit]

From ancient Greek philosophy meaning mind or intellect, though colloquially used in English to mean common sense or (I would say) shrewdness. Pronounced with the ou as in pronounce (phonetically nows) by the way. MAG1 17:13, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shrewdness isn't a good synonym. I've linked nous for those who have not met it before. MAG1 21:52, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AMOLAD[edit]

Jane Austen[edit]

I've researched and partially rewritten the basic biographical article on Jane Austen. The first two sections, "Life" and "Works," are close to completion while the rest is under way.

36 Hours[edit]

Thanks for clearing up the ambiguities in the 36 Hours article. I’ve never experienced someone doing that so quickly before! :) Best regards, Jim_Lockhart 06:54, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Its "crooked" meaning is a pigeon-holing stereotype but in reality it is just as it says on the first sentence of the article:

"An informant (sometimes informer) is someone existing inside a closed system who provides information of that system to a figure or organization who exist outside of that system." Vic fits right into that category.

Changed "purchased" clause in Citizen of the Galaxy article.[edit]

Clarityfiend, I've reedited the "purchased" clause to read: He is purchased by an old beggar, Baslim the Cripple, for a trivial amount of money with the assistance of a wealthy nobleman. In the original I was endeavoring to provide the derisive flavor of the Syndonian's assistance. Perhaps there is yet a better wording but in the meantime I hope this will achieve consensus on the issue. -- Rydra Wong 02:21, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't make changes to this page unless you understand the definitions of the words you are writing about. You removed lots of important and solid information hammered out into an approved form by the consensus of a large number of editors on Myth, Mythology and etc. and instead replaced it with lots of completely incorrect or misleading information. Myth and mythos are not interchangeable terms, stories of King Arthur are legends and not myths (the meanings are different), and so forth. I can understand wanting to help, but that was a pretty massive change to be making, especially when you were just kind of making things up off the top of your head for definitions.

I saw your remark to my comment on the "Maria Elena Holly" issue. I have to admit that you do have a good sense of humor. I like that! Tony the Marine 22:53, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi there - good job on the merger! You're correct about the next step. Redirect Maria Elena Holly to Buddy Holly, but don't do anything to its talk page. You might keep it on your watchlist in case someone removes the redirect and restores the article – that happens sometimes on subjects with a large and/or passionate fan base. If it does, revert it and warn the editor, and include a link to the AfD. Let me know if you have any further questions or need assistance. Thanks! - KrakatoaKatie 20:15, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Scarlet O'Hara[edit]

I just noticed your comment on Talk:Michael Sinclair (British Army officer). I'm the primary contributor to the article (though I haven't worked on it for a while). Obviously, the "Scarlet O'Hara" is not Vivien Leigh, it was a nickname for one of the prisoners - I'm still trying to find his real name! Thanks for pointing it out though - it should be cleared up.

Privateer[edit]

You removed what you refered to as my "speculation" about Jarrett and Pardo's relationship. I'd hardly call it speculation. The script itself pretty much confirms that giving Jarrett an alternative confidant is part of the police plan. When Evans briefs Fallon prior to him going undercover: Fallon: "You mean I'm supposed to take mama's place?", Evans: "Never can tell. He might need someone.", Fallon: "I'll practice up on my lullabies." The relationship between them is central to the second half of the film and goes a lot to explain why Jarrett goes off the rails and blows himself up at the end. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marktreut (talkcontribs) 10:03, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've re-instated the aspects of the Jarrett/Pardo relationship, though I've toned it down to make Pardo more of a confidant as opposed to a substitute mother.--Marktreut 22:01, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mayberry edits[edit]

Sorry, I disagree. While detailing every dress Aunt Bee wore down to the length of her hems and the number of buttons on the cuffs would be "Fancruft" I don't think the minor edits to the Mayberry section of the article are fancruft. They are intended to give the reader a sense of Mayberry, its size, etc. I think the edits should remain for the time being -- reworded perhaps for brevity but retained to give the reader a sense of what Mayberry is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TimmyTruck (talkcontribs) 08:35, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
