Interested?

Hi! I read the article you created about Teo Gheorghiu and I was wondering if you would be interested in joining a WikiProject or taskforce, basically a group of Wikipedia editors who improve articles about a subject. In this case about children. I need a minimum group of interested editors before I can set it up so every little bit of effort helps. - Mgm|^(talk) 15:23, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

• P.S. IMDB accepts submissions from its users but it's not a good source, because they don't say where the information comes from and they've published mistakes on several occasions. In the future, it would be better to cite other sources like newspapers or news websites. (see User:Uncle G/On sources and content for more information) - Mgm|^(talk) 15:23, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi MacGyverMagic! Unfortunately I don't have enough (free) time for that. Calimo (talk) 16:13, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

You don't need much free time. Dropping in once every couple of months is enough. - Mgm|^(talk) 16:42, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

• PS: for the refs most of those I have are in French, but I've already found some in English. I think they'll cover everything here. I'll add them soon.!

If you don't have enough English sources to cover all of it, the French ones are acceptable too (just make sure you clearly label them as French). English sources are preferred, but others are not forbidden. - Mgm|^(talk) 16:42, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Teo

There are some things unclear in the article. Did he shoot a Swiss and an American version of the same movie. Or did he shoot in two different locations for one film? Also, "He won the first prize in the San Marino Piano Competition in 2004 and in 2005 he got the same prize in the Franz Liszt Piano Competition in Weimar." When you say "the same prize" am I right to assume you mean first prize? Side note: It's convention to put those references after punctuation like periods/full stops. - Mgm|^(talk) 21:36, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

I think Swiss and American are the same. At least the contrary isn't stated anywhere. However I'm not sure it is relevant here so let's just say it was released in 2006, which is right. Further precisions are available on the film's page for interested readers. For the prizes, you're right it's not clear. I tried to rephrase it a little bit. For the French refs I still need to see if it is really relevant and if it adds valuable information. I know I can add them, but I'd prefer not to if if it isn't really required. Thanks for the reviews! Calimo (talk) 08:10, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Help me

In the chart below, let's say that I want to increase the font size and make only the words "Richard Rodgers" bigger. What exact code would I type in -- and where -- if I want to use CSS and not HTML? Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 09:39, 24 June 2009 (UTC))

Richard Rodgers
1. Academy Award	7th	1945	Best Song	"It Might As Well Be Spring" from State Fair
2. Emmy Award	12th	1962	Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composed	Winston Churchill-The Valiant Years
3. Grammy Award	23rd	1960	Best Show Album (Original Cast)	The Sound of Music
4. Tony Award	39th	1950	Best Musical	South Pacific

Hello Joseph,

Try font-size:2em;. That would give you:

Richard Rodgers
1. Academy Award	7th	1945	Best Song	"It Might As Well Be Spring" from State Fair
2. Emmy Award	12th	1962	Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composed	Winston Churchill-The Valiant Years
3. Grammy Award	23rd	1960	Best Show Album (Original Cast)	The Sound of Music
4. Tony Award	39th	1950	Best Musical	South Pacific

Thank you for your help. I knew that the correct command was font-size:2em;, as you say. But I was not able to figure out where exactly to place that command within the code for my Chart. I tried typing it in, all over the place (except, of course, in the actual correct place) ... and nothing worked. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated. (Joseph A.
