Clarification: This is an award whose image I commissioned; it is not something bestowed on me. Clarityfiend 00:14, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
hello... I put it there for you to look at. :-) If you don't want it there, simply delete it; it's your talk page. :-) Later! Ling.Nut 00:26, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, I'm bestowing this award on you, Clarityfiend, for commissioning it, and for all the hard work you've done on the C. J. Cherryh articles. --Bruce1ee 06:16, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What is original research... really?

This is in regards to The Andy Griffith Show, which you recently edited, and tagged WP:OR. According to the WP:OR page, “research that consists of collecting and organizing material from existing sources within the provisions of this and other content policies is encouraged: this is "source-based research," and it is fundamental to writing an encyclopedia.” All I did to come up with my edit info was to look at imdb.com, add up the number of episodes for each recurring character, and push a few buttons on my calculator; it took maybe, 5 minutes tops. I wouldn't call that original research, since anyone can verify within a few minutes the info I put in. I though it was an interesting bit of trivia about the lack of marrieds on the show which I observed. Leon7 22:29, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't believe you responded to this from 6 months ago. Since this isssue came up again recently, I would like to find out more about your way of thinking. Leon7 (talk) 22:00, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 19th-century novels task force

Hi, Clarityfiend. I'm starting up a 19th-century novels task force for WP:NOVELS.

[edit] Ed Begley

I must apologize. I've been working on this article, doing some clean up and working toward adding a decent filmography, tv appearances and Broadway. I got so far the other night and actually meant to add the "underconstruction" tag to it and simply forgot. What you walked in on was the middle of the work. However, I do want to thank you for wikifying the films, that saved me some amount of work. Thanks again. Wildhartlivie (talk) 23:45, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A Matter of Life and Death (film)

The whole of Wikipedia is all trivia really. Those bits that you just deleted were under References in Popular Culture which shows how much a 60+ year old film is still fresh in the minds of people. So much so that they can not only include references to it but they don't have to explain them either -- SteveCrook (talk) 02:50, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mr. Deeds Goes to Town

From anudder Canajan, thanks for all your help here and on other film pages. Can you also look at the Talk:Mr. Deeds Goes to Town‎ page, I can't seem to make a dent there. WFIW Bzuk (talk) 08:06, 24 February 2008 (UTC).

[edit] Cast notes

I have now edited quite a number of articles (18,000 edits) and only recently have gone into the film world. The reason for this proviso came from a discussion that arose on one of my first movie article edits. It was suggested that it was a good idea since I was quoting waaaay too many cast and crew members. The note first identifies the screen credit order and then indicates the source of information. It may seem like overkill to have two citations and I will revise that but the note does provide information for the reader. Let me try a revision and see how that goes. FWIW, this is a minor issue, see above section. Bzuk (talk) 08:13, 24 February 2008 (UTC).

[edit] Further discussion on article talk page

Thanks for your follow up...but this person is new. Hence, he/she cannot start going against policy so quickly. OMG. I've been hit hard by many Wikipedians, and I listened. Can you communicate with this person....he/she reversed with no policy in mind. I don't not want to get in a squabble.. Thx.. Luigibob (talk) 22:56, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hey from Luigibob

Thanks for all your help. Form you Home Page, I see you like Heinlein...me too, athough I'm not a libetarian like he was. Me, I'm a Social Democrat, hence why I work for Obama these days (when he ran he ran his campaign in California....we lost, but we have high hopes). But my favorite book when I was young was Tunnel in the Sky, which is not on your list but it was so cool reading the when I was young. I've read most of his books written in the 1950s. Finally, thx again. Luigibob (talk) 06:05, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dawn Wells

I've commented out something you've added because I don't understand its function - {{Rp|5}}. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:27, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

•Umm, when you took your quick peak at the documentation for template {{Rp}}, and seen that it is a reference suggested for page numbers, did you not download the cited document ([1]), and instead of having to manually search for the cited section title "Good...Better...Best", did you turn to the cited page number where, you found the cited price in that section title on that page?
•You can either place the number inside of the <ref> tags or put the page template back -- which ever suits your taste.
•The page number template documentation suggests that sometime in the future that a bot or other process could use such template information for automation of a conversion to an enhanced ref system that handles page numbers in a better way.
Warning, holding one's breath on that last point, is only recommended for high endurance athletes, consult your doctor accordingly before persuing such a regime.

WurmWoodeT 02:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

• Thanks for your reply, I'll try to be more wary for the naive or casual user when using tools.
• In return for your advice, to help you with the things that you do not understand, you might try Templates with All Pages.

[edit] FYI

WP:DEMO Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 20:08, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Look, I'm not going into every page and changing the format, I'm simply doing it on pages that I work on, where I think it's visually appropriate, and it is not forbidden by MoS film, no matter what people seem to believe.

Perhaps I barged into "Female", which I believe you worked on before I got there. I offer a compromise - go back to no italics on Female, but leave them on Godfrey - where (I think) I put in the cast section. In the future, I'll continue to use italics on cast sections that I create (if I think it appropriate - it's not always), but I won't convert existing cast sections unless they're really in a mess and need major redoing, but I'll only do it as apart of a major overhaul - I will not simply covert existing cast section to italics for its own sake. On the other hand, you don't take the italics out of those cast sections I've created or majorly reworked.

There's no particular reason that both formats can't coexist, there're not so radically different that it's something for either of us to get bent out of shape about.

How about it? Can we sign the Clarityfield/Fitzgerald Peace Friendship and Prosperity Pact? Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 20:25, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

As a gesture of good faith, I've restored your version of Female, and I'm removing it from my watchlist. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 20:32, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
No can do. It's not a matter of WP:OWNERSHIP. If you can ignore a clear consensus, what's to stop somebody else from deciding that switching to Wingdings would be an improvement? Clarityfiend (talk) 20:42, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
It's a shame that you seem more interested in crushing me than you are in working together. Oh well.

MoS policy says the formatting I'm using is allowable, and a couple of people expressing their opinions on the talk page of an obscure article is hardly sufficient "consensus" to decide a matter of Wikipedia-wide policy. I offered to take part in a conversation somewhere of a more general nature, but I don't feel the onus is on me to bring it up, since what I'm doing is clearly allowable, and you're the one who needs some kind of ruling to make the MoS more restrictive than it is at the current time.

So, your rejection of my "live and let live" compromise leave us precisely where we were, except that, for my part, I'm going to uphold my end of the offered compromise anyway. When editing film articles with existing cast section, I will not convert them to italics, even if I think they'd look better that way, but if I write a new article, or add a cast section to an existing article, or if a cast section needs radical re-working, then I may do so, if I think it's appropriate for the material in that article.

You are, of course, free to follow me around and alter my formatting, if that's what you'd like to do, you're free to take whatever course of action you believe is justified, and I'll respond in whatever forum you choose. I have a hard time believing you'd want to expend that kind of energy on such a trivial matter, but, heck, if that's what you decide to do, that's what you decide to do.

I'm sorry you couldn't see your way clear to work together on this. Best. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 01:16, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Just so you know, I will not be watching this page, so if you need to contact me, please make use of my talk page. Thanks. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 01:31, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, final thoughts from me. I posted on the Female talk page about our conversation here, and mentioned that I am discouraged and disheartened to be at loggerheads with an editor whose work is generally of a high quality, and that stands, but, really, my friend, your slippery slope "wingdings" argument, and suggestion that if italics are allowed in character names in cast lists it's somehow tantamount to "anarchy" on Wikipedia... well, they're just plain silly, don't you think?

[edit] Battle of the Bulge

Hi. This is not an unfriendly message. I note that we both obviously watch TCM and like to update articles about films we watch there (although I seem to do it while the film is playing and you seem more inclined to do it after it's finished), so we have that in common, but I happen to be reading Eisenhower's Lieutenants about the European War from D-Day on, and I'm in the middle of the chapters on the Battle of the Bulge -- and I noted that you've just been there doing some editing. That was just a little too much synchronicity for me! Weird. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 02:07, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Tunnel

It seems you started an article on The Tunnel (film), but I had already done so. Since my article has date/time priority, and is a little more developed than yours (not much), I've moved over some stuff from yours to mine, converted incoming links, and I'm about to convert yours into a redirect.

Sorry about this, if it had happened the other way, I would have moved my stuff into your article. I don't think I've lost any of your material that wasn't duplicating mine. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 20:26, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] gayelle

hey at least Gayelle (lesbian) had sources and links.NewAtThis (talk) 04:30, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] an honest question

Greetings! I was trolling through some stuff and reflecting on things I've worked on around Wikipedia, and ran across an article of mine that I had put several hours into, and several others had contributed to, that you nominated (successfully) to AfD. Personal opinions about the conduct of that AfD aside, I just wonder what it is that drives you to nominate pages for deletion? Is it a feeling like you've got to contribute to making sure that the WP servers don't run out of space? Or just that things you don't find important aren't at all? I know this probably sounds like I'm coming in with a chip in my shoulder, but I mean to ask this in an open and honest way, I really am curious. Thanks! – ɜɿøɾɪɹℲ ( тɐʟк • ¢ʘи†ʀ¡βs ) 21:14, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I could have guessed that you feel like it makes it "better" to delete articles, but I have a hard time making that leap of logic that says that "less is better". *shrug* – ɜɿøɾɪɹℲ ( тɐʟк • ¢ʘи†ʀ¡βs ) 13:13, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Terentia

Regarding the statement "Terentia outlived her husband by many years, dying at the age of 103." I have just added two sources to the article (Pliny, Natural History, vii. 48. s. 49. and Valerius Maximus, viii. 13. § 6.) I hope that helps. :) -- Pichote (talk) 17:53, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A Matter of Life and Death

Since you've reverted my perfectly legitimate formatting choices in this article several times now, and are making demands of me in your edit summaries, perhaps you should bring your concerns to the talk page there, so we can discuss it? I capitulate on question of using IMDB trivia as a reference, I admit that it's not a reliable source, so I'm referring primarily to my use of bolding in the "Cast notes" section to point out who the note is about, a fairly standard technique which is widely used in that way. I'm always open to talking about this stuff. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 05:05, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Film coordinator opening

As you may be aware, we've had to disqualify Creamy3 due to indefinite blocking of his account, and this leaves us with an open position which the new coordinators will appoint. Several of us have floated your name for the remaining spot. While this is not an offer yet, I wanted to gauge your thoughts on the matter. Thanks! Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 23:45, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: The Fourth Protocol

Perfectly alright. Glad to see you expanding and bettering the plot synopsis I hastily threw together as I was watching the film a week or two ago ;) My version felt a little unfinished, and that's not to mention I'd made a few mistakes. Falastur2 (talk) 17:45, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Clarityfiend ... Thnx fer the recent additions to Stepin Fetchit ... if I might intrude for a moment, I would appreciate your feedback on the {{Selected filmography}} template I created ... the talk page records that this was the article that led to its creation. :-) Happy Editing! — 72.75.110.142 (talk) 19:11, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rfc on Ed Fitzgerald

Thanks for that RfC. I didn't have time to mount one, but I'll contribute what I can to the one that you've raised. For now, I've certified the matter. --Tagishsimon (talk) 18:24, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Oh - and read the blurb at the top of the page again carefully. The section saying "each of them must certify it by signing this page with nowikiTagishsimon (talk) 19:50, 22 April 2008 (UTC)</nowiki>." You have not signed using the four tildes, and so technically the RfC will be thrown out right now. It would also be handy if you would sign all of your additions throughout the page - e.g. I'm not about to add anything to the statement of complaint, since at the moment it will not be obvious which are my comments and which yours. --Tagishsimon (talk) 19:50, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Editors who file Rfcs are expected to provide evidence (in the forms of diffs and short explanations) in the evidence section, provide a statement of the dispute (a brief summary of 1-2 lines of what is the dispute - this is what appears on the Rfc list), and a description that can specify some more details. Please ensure the Rfc that you've filed against Ed Fitzgerald complies accordingly, as it currently does not. A good example to follow is [in-this-Rfc]. Please also note - when providing evidence of trying and failing to resolve the dispute, diffs are expected to be provided - entire talk pages are not accepted as evidence of trying and failing to resolve the dispute. Regards - Ncmvocalist (talk) 07:56, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Clarity, despite your colourful choice of words in describing my assessment of the RfC, I do think that the issue is more of personal relations as I recognize that two very capable and experienced individuals are involved. Nothing wrong with a RfC, it does tend to "clear the air" and I hope that everyone can clearly identify the problems, deal with them and move on. I realize you have made that effort already but all parties must agree to a resolution. FWiW, I recommended both of you as "prime" candidates for Film Project Coordinators because there is a similar pattern of reasoned, deliberate and thoughtful contributions mixed in with a sophisticated research and writing capability. I wish you both well. Bzuk (talk) 19:42, 24 April 2008 (UTC).

[edit] IMDb link removal

I've been offline for a week, so could you please indicate when IMDb links were banned from Wikipedia? My understanding from working with the Films Wikiproject is we're supposed to use them whenever possible - there's a link template and everything. Nothing wrong with the TCMb link being there too, but last I checked the IMDb links are perfectly acceptable. If this has changed (and I am actually not being snarky on this as Wikipedia policy has a tendency to change on a dime without widespread discussion so I've leaving this note with the assumption that policy has changed overnight), please let me know. I'm referring to your change in the article The Saint Takes Over. Personally I can't see how the IMDb link can be considered redundant as it contains information different and more thorough than the TCM link. Cheers. 23skidoo (talk) 17:48, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Fair enough - I misunderstood what you meant by redundant. As I understand it, however, the IMDb link is supposed to be in both the infobox and the External links. I've seen this done on many articles. I'm unaware of a style guideline or policy that says to only use one. 23skidoo (talk) 18:19, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Refs, notes, footnotes, whatever

Yeah...I was corrected and I think Ed Fitzgerald got involved, and I was under the impression that was the consensus...yes, I agree it's bullshit, and redundant, but I try to keep articles UNIFORM...I'll send him a note, and seee if I am under the WRONG impression.... More soon....Best -- Luigibob (talk) 03:39, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Screw it, I'm not going to waste my time on such a trivial matter. If you want to change it go ahead. Heck change all the articles I work on. Let's just try to keep it uniform. And, I do agree, it is redundant. My best -- Luigibob (talk) 04:13, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Casablanca (film)

You are correct about what Renault says about Laszlo going to America, and I have apologized on the talk page. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 21:14, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

BTW, concerning your "No honor among thieves" remark on That Uncertain Feeling (film) -- I told you that I would not italicize existing cast lists, but if I added a cast list or had to do a major revamping of the cast section, I would, and I have held strictly to that pledge. If you can find an instance of my doing other than that, I will apologize for it, but you won't, because I didn't. I made that pledge on March 16, when I had already added the italics to The Uncertain Feeling on March 9.

There have been numerous times when I have been sorely tempted, but I have held to my word. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 03:47, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

My turn to apologize. I didn't notice the date. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:58, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
No problem -- and thanks. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 04:06, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Don't I know it!

Hey, there's something still not quite right in your re-write of Ilsa's Paris explanation. I can't put my finger on how to fix it, but the problem comes in the transition from her explaining what happened in the past, to Rick's actions in the present. For a moment, I'm uncertain about where in time we are, and it's not until the end of the sentence that I realize we're in the present, in Rick's reaction to her explanation.

It might be worth taking a look at it again to see if you agree. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 04:53, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for considering it -- your edit looks good to me. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 09:54, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
