Name Edits

I dunno if you were just being dumb, but his name is 'John Williams.' If you put 'John William's' then it won't work. Please be sure to put the Right name and not change it when its right.

In Variations of Recording Techniques, It should read that the music is very "bright and live." What is meant by this is that the music sounds like you're hearing the concert live in a concert hall, as opposed to overly digitized such as a Hans Zimmer score, or somewhat dull sounding like how they mastered The Lost World.

There is a difference and that is what is meant. --70.119.50.167 21:10, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Soundtrack VS Score

I cite one of your own articles in this debate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_score

A Film score is music specifically written for a film. I don't understand why Wiki thinks that this article should be considered about a "soundtrack." If anything, you could say "album," but NOT soundtrack as soundtrack is music NOT written specifically for the film or various other types of things such as the actual track of sound effects in a medium.

I don't think this article is a soundtrack. If anything, I think it should be renamed "Film Score."

Crap

This article is horrendous and glurgy. There are spelling mistakes galore, and it's all kinds of POV. Most of it makes no sense at all. If you need to explain what something means on the talk page, then your writing is bad. This is my favorite of John Williams' scores, and this article is in sad disarray. 69.248.65.105 00:16, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Right. I'll admit it's somewhat point of view, but it's not in any disarray. As far as explaining things in talk it's because people keep editing things out without realizing what they're doing. But anyways, I try not to complain about things. I try to fix them. If you can fix something, then fix it. If you can't,then stop complaining. I Corrected all 4 spelling errors and removed some of the more verbose things. Happy now?--Voyager1 00:41, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Jurassicpark-1-.jpg

Image:Jurassicpark-1-.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:03, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cue Names/Slate Numbers

I know currently it says citation is needed. No site currently hosts the leaked conductors score to Jurassic Park but it is currently available in PDF through torrent sites and such. JPL will soon be making a few pages dedicated to this and as such will be the citation needed for this. I ask that no one change/remove this yet. There will soon be the citation needed but currently there is none as it is not something that is widely known. --72.188.34.9 (talk) 05:22, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have the PDFs, and there are numerous differences between them and the information provided here. For instance, "Cartoon Demonstration" instead of "Cartoon Display" and "The Coming Storm" instead of "The Storm is Coming." There are also cue number discrepancies. It's possible that some of these were changed, but the simple fact of the matter is that the only piece of hard evidence I've seen is what's sitting on my computer - I have no way of knowing if the cues listed on the page were simply invented by another Wikipedian. I'm not gonna change it right now, but I'm tempted to. Datameister (talk) 01:56, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bootleg/Fan Edit Track Listing

In addition to a number of other changes, I've removed the track listing for the bootleg or fan edit and replaced it with the original cue titles. I have nothing against fan edits - I make them for myself all the time - but unofficial track listings have no place on Wikipedia, as they're just our own personal creations. The original cue titles, however, were an actual part of the process of creating this score, and they can provide valuable information to readers. Datameister (talk) 02:19, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Opening Titles

What's the name of the wind instrument used in the track, "Opening Titles"? It seems to be a somewhat obscure instrument as I haven't heard it in any Western classical orchestras and would be a helpful piece of information to include on the page. --Þorstejnn (talk) 06:12, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
