User talk:Mr Fist

Hi, Mr Fist, and welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Here are some links I found helpful:

The Tutorial for new users is a great way to get started. There's also a lot of useful info at Editing help.
Five Pillars of Wikipedia is the place to go for a basic summary of all the rules.
New contributors' help page is a good place to go if you get stuck. Alternatively, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page (click here) - I'll try to answer your questions as best I can!

I noticed you were from Brisbane, like me. You might enjoy contributing to the WikiProject Brisbane if you're looking for something to do. See you around! --Grace 05:25, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Filming Othello

Hello! Please be aware that I restored Filming Othello to the template of Orson Welles-directed motion pictures. Welles directed this feature-length production and it belongs in the template. Please stop removing it from the template, as its documentary status does not disqualify it from being recognised as Welles' last completed project as a director. Thank you.

Filming Othello and the Welles template (Part 2)

Hello! I see that you updated the Orson Welles template, and I would like thank you for doing that. I have added entries for three Welles-related articles that I began here: Too Much Johnson, Don Quixote (unfinished film) and The Dreamers (unfinished film). However, I noticed that you are still not acknowledging Welles' final completed motion picture as a director, Filming Othello, as part of his main canon. I would appreciate if you could please explain why you feel why Filming Othello should not be included with the other Welles films. As with F for Fake (which you have listed), it is a feature film that is a combination of documentary and film essay, so there is no argument that it doesn't belong because it is a non-fiction film. And unlike The Other Side of the Wind, it was completed and publicly screened (I am not moving The Other Side of the Wind from its template spot). In my capacity as one of the coordinators for WikiProject Films, I have returned Filming Othello to where I believe it belongs in the template. If you feel my decision is problematic, we can take this matter to a wider discussion in WikiProject Films. Thank you. Ecoleetage (talk) 22:15, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

David Fincher

Why cant we put Torso on the David Fincher template yet?--Yankees10 15:54, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Takashi Miike

Hello, I was wondering for what reason you removed some of Takashi Miike's earlier films as director from the Miike template.Danleary25 (talk) 08:08, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can understand your point, but they are all feature length works by the filmmaker. If you see it this way wouldn't it be more effective to create a "V-Cinema" category in the template? The template is meant to wrangle all the articles of Miike's directorial works together. Simply deleting the titles is misleading and causes navigation problems, especially since the template was never removed from any of the articles which were removed from the temp.

Also if that is your reasoning, movies like the Young Thug films, Family, Kikoku/Yakuza Demon and Full Metal Yakuza which you didn't remove were also non-theatrical films. Even Visitor Q, one of his most well known films is v-cinema, even if it's had some festival run it was produced for the video market.Danleary25 (talk) 10:03, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I undid your unexplained removals from the above template. This kind of edit removing content, with no edit summary providing any rationale for removal, begs for reversion. Do you have a reason? Can you explain it? Without explanation, this just looks like blanking vandalism, though given you edits I doubt that's the case.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 11:43, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Poltergeist

Hi. You removed content from the Poltergeist (film) article with this edit, but without providing a rationale for this in an Edit Summary. When removing apparently valid, sourced material (that material is indeed sourced, and explained further down in the article), please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 13:43, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Joe (2013 film)

The article Joe (2013 film) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. §FreeRangeFrog 20:30, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
