Talk:Castellan

message: Why is this marked as a stub?  Is there really more that could be said about a castellan?  If someone feels that way, wouldn't the article be better served by making note of such on the talk page or something like that rather than simply puting a stub tag up and moving on?

message: The proposed merging of Castellany with this article took place without signalling it here. Nobody took the trouble to edit the poor un-encyclopaedic English beforehand and then someone made a redirect to the solitary Maltese castellany of Valletta: all rather unsatisfactory.

Talk:David Bradley (director)

message: David Bradley spent the latter part of his life teaching, but for a few years he was a promising young director in Hollywood, and one of his films, Talk About A Stranger, while not a classic, is visually stunning, atmospheric and shows great promise even as it was a minor film. Nothing much came of this and it would good to hear more about Mr. Bradley and his strangely brief career in Hollywood.

Talk:Hisashi Inoue

message: For this bibliography, I try to find books or some interviews for knowing his philosophy or ideas. However, it was hard to find information about explaining is philosophies or ideas. I can find easily how his play was influenced or influence Japanese culture, but I can’t find review or explaining about his style or philosophy easily, it take some time. In my guess, the biggest problem is he also use a lost high quality Japanese words, because he really loved Japanese culture itself. So, Inoue’s act and play has strong Japanese style’s humor and ideas, so it could be hard to accept by different cultures people. Also, his play couldn’t be translated by other language easily.

Talk:Irene Tomaszewski

message: Hi, thanks for pointing out Wikipedia:Notability (people), but I don't see where it says it is  "customary to describe the subject of their book in a bit more detail". And of course, Irene has two books, the second of which is only mentioned. I suppose what bothers me is that half of what is supposed to be Irene's biography is taken up with a description of a book (actually, not even the book, but the subject of the book).
About Irene's name. She is known and refers to herself in the English-speaking world as Irene Tomaszewski. All her English-language writing, film work included, has appeared under this name. You get 1390 google hits typing "Irene Tomaszewski" into an English-language search - "Irena Tomaszewska" brings you 87. I think that, this being the English Wikipedia it only make sense to retitle the article and do a redirect. As I understand, I can't do this myself because my account isn't old enough. Thanks. Ffighter45 (talk) 21:14, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm glad we talk. Your rationale about the name change sounds convincing. I'm moving the article thus creating a redirect. About the description of the book however, please look at most Wikipedia biographies of writers to see what I mean. They're usually quite extensive and often made into separate sections. Too bad, her life is summarised in so very few words, but that doesn't change the fact that her most important work deserves broadening. Cheers, Poeticbent talk 22:09, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: The "Irene Tomaszewski" article says she was born in the Soviet gulag in 1940.
Farther down, the article says that in 1942 the family was evacuated from the Soviet Union and that, on the way, "Tomaszewski's mother Anna, pregnant with Irena, and her two sisters Wanda and Halina, were separated from the children's father, Felix."
If Irena was born "in 1940", how could her mother be pregnant with her in 1942?
Could someone please check the chronology and fill in some evident gaps in the iinformation?
Thanks.

Talk:Cahaba Prison

message: * I have restored the image. The notes on the Library of Congress catalog page indicated that the photograh shows a drawing of the prison in Cahaba and that the faint caption "Andersonville" was the photographer's misidentification which he later attempted to erase. (link)--Dystopos (talk) 04:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: *Concur with Dystopos.  I've just restored the infobox and image again, even if the LOC is wrong, there's no reason to delete the infobox.  If you are so sure of what Castle Morgan looked like, maybe you have a more accurate representation.  If not, we'll have to use the existing image, since evidently at least some scholars believe it to be a representation of Cahaba Prison. Did you ever stop to consider that it may have been draw from a soldiers description, thus the artist took creative license and added the hills in the background.  The prison itself, drainage, and adjoining RR tracks match Cahaba Prison fairly accurately.  This sketch certainly doesn't match Andersonville.  The only other representation of Cahaba Prison that I've ever seen was a rather crude map, and it isn't in the public domain as far as I know.  Altairisfartalk 15:12, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Irving Fiske

message: I was surprised this isn't mentioned in the article, but Fiske filed a law suit for $1,250,000 against Alfred Hitchcock and Cary Grant in New York in May 1947. Hitchcock had announced in August 1945 that he was intending to film a modern-language version of "Hamlet", with Grant in the starring role, and Fiske claimed this infringed upon his "Hamlet in Modern English" (published 1941). Hitchcock's project was dropped after a few months and didn't go beyond some initial pre-production planning with producer Sidney Bernstein. After various delays, the case finally went before the New York Federal Court in October 1954, by which time Fiske had removed Grant's name from the suit and dropped the damages to $750,000. Judge William Bondy halted the trial after 11 days of testimony and directed the jury to find the case "not proven". Bondy later ordered Fiske to pay $5,000 towards Hitchcock's legal fees. The trial generated a lot of interest in Hollywood as a victory for Fiske risked opening up the flood gates for other litigation cases. The case was covered by Variety -- see articles published on 29/Aug/1945, 05/Dec/1945, 20/Feb/1946, 28/May/1947, 12/Jan/1949, 27/Oct/1954 and 02/Mar/1955. I've written up an outline for the Hitchcock Wiki if anyone wants to incorporate details into the Fiske article: http://the.hitchcock.zone/wiki/Hamlet (I'd add it myself, but I'm not sure if others feel the case was notable enough or not) Davepattern (talk) 10:12, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Samford Hall

message: I am glad that information is included about the bell tower, but I had to correct information about the playing of War Eagle. As the writer of the "source" the information was taken from, I feel that a suggested program that is displayed was taken as a current schedule. In fact, daily visitors to Samford Hall, or anywhere near it, would only know that it plays at noon. If I myself am mistaken, then I am sorry. To the orignal writer of the article, if you feel that my "source" does indeed say 5pm, then I will have to change the source. 
In light of many articles recently published in local (Auburn/Opelika, AL) newspapers in regards to DST, I encountered many errors about the clock tower and carillon. It seems that the reporters didn't research the subject very well. Due to the knowledge that I have gained while researching this topic, I would like to offer more information from my "source" to the wikipedia page for Samford Hall. Such information is along the lines of the original bell still in use, contol of clock/bell/carillon system, etc. I have been wanting to start an article on this topic, but being new to Wikipedia, and still in school (see user page), I don't have the proper skills or time.
