thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Dundee 16342q.jpg

message: The character of Amos Dundee may have some slight resemblance to Ranald MacKenzie but bears absolutely no resemblance to any incarnation of George Armstrong Custer, historical, fictional, or imagined. Dundee is much closer in personality to George S. Patton - but you won't find the movie linked to anything related to him.
Custer was a spit and polish, highly disciplined, vainglorious, and very formal Union and cavalry officer whose character and exploits have nothing in common with Dundee. Most especially, Custer was devoid of self-doubt and ignorant of anything remotely resembling irony, both of which characterize Dundee. Sensei48 (talk) 09:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  More Than "Citation Needed" 

message: Okay, maybe I'm missing something.  I've gone through the page several times, yet I can't seem to find any relationship between Major Dundee and Battle of Inlon River‎ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_inlon_river) which is listed under See Also.
One is a movie set during the US civil war involving using POWs to fight Apache in Mexico.  The other is a battle that took place in 1867 during the Nien Rebellion in China.  Try as I might, I can't see any possible connection between these two.
Am I missing something or should the link be removed?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.34.191.143 (talk) 04:56, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: You are absolutely right.  One is an actual battle and the other is a fictional movie which do not seem to overlap.  I'm deleting it.  CarbonX (talk) 05:11, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why the link? 

message: I just can't revise this sentence without noting that it's absolutely the funniest (and surely accidental) dangling modifier I've ever come across on WP. I really lol'd. I mean, I make mistakes too; I'm not judging. But, you must admit, these are THE sneakiest Injuns EVER:
"Teresa ultimately has a short-lived affair with Dundee. In an unguarded moment with her, he is wounded by the Apaches in the leg, forcing him to..."
I just had to preserve that moment. 06:33, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  I have to. 

message: Is the BBC/A&E co-produced, 1993, definitive Sam Peckinpah documentary.  It is full of good quotes, including RG Armsrtong's statement that Major Dundee was "Moby Dick in the desert."  Unfortunately, it is no longer on YouTube in its complete form and I can't find it on the A&E website any long.  Maybe BBC?User:JCHeverly 23:48, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
