message: The Oehler system is certainly NOT used by most german and austrian clarinetists. Oehler is practically played by almost nobody, nowadays. German and austrian clarinetists use the GERMAN system, some Austrians also a special Viennese clarinet.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:1205:5045:1BC0:7CD9:E8C3:5A9E:62CA (talk) 12:04, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: What would be the cost of someone managing to create an authentic-looking card? PeteVerdon (talk) 00:06, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Even if the image with the watermark can't be directly unwatermarked (which I don't think is the case), there is already enough info in it to allow someone to recreate the whole thing easily, just match the fonts, colors, positions etc of the texts, and reconstruct the little that is covered of the image on the top and you're done. And though it can be recreated, the soft shadow here and there are barely noticeable, wouldn't be missed under most circumstances where someone would be trying to use a fake pass. IMO the pass should be way more complex, should take some ideas from money bills and other things where the goal is to make it hard to be falsified. --TiagoTiago (talk) 04:15, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

text: I agree with PeteVerdon; even if the watermark was never there, what's the worst someone could do with this? All they'd be able to do is potentially get into places they otherwise couldn't, and that wouldn't hurt anyone. Besides, it's simple enough that anybody could just recreate it without the watermark. flarn2006 [u t c] time: 06:02, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Talk:The Seventh Continent (1989 film)

message: Does this article really need to spoil the entire movie in the first few lines? I'm not some crazy person who hates any spoilers but this is pretty extreme-- knowing the ending of this particular movie in advance basically ruins the experience of watching it. It's like having "Citizen Kane is a movie about a man's enduring love for his sled named Rosebud" in the first line. 
I don't want to chop up someone else's work (and frankly I don't really know how to do it), but I think if other people agree then the massive spoiler could go further on in a separate plot summary which people can choose not to read. The first part can then be a lot more neutral, so that people just looking for general information can still experience this amazing movie the way it was intended.
