Considering it's marked as being from Raymond Rohauer (an American distributor notorious for making unauthorized copies and adding his own title cards), it's very possible he added the misspelling and that version ended up making the rounds. hinnk (talk) 03:13, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Five Elements Ninjas

message: What makes this site notable or usable for reviews? Their about page doesn't really say much nor does the author of the article in question here suggest that it's anything outside self-published source, which fails WP:SPS. Thoughts? Andrzejbanas (talk) 02:15, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Notability has nothing to do with article content.  Beyond Hollywood had editorial overview, but the site is defunct now.  It is not self-published any more than AllMovie is.  For example, here is a snapshot of their "about us" page from 2013, which clearly lists an editor.  Personally, I don't see the point in listing a review from Allmovie.

There is nothing on the page suggesting why we should take these guys as serious reviewers. Per WP:NEWSORG, I don't think we should be using them. As for AllMovie, it has been used in several articles including a few good articles and used as a database by the New York Times.

message: replaced uses of "actress" in this article with "actor". Is there concensus for this surprising change? What's the motivation? I don't think there's any MOS on Wikipedia that suggests using the masculine term for females. -- Mikeblas (talk) 22:34, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Mikeblas, I did that so the article would conform to the Wikipedia Manual of Style's gender-neutral language guidelines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Gender-neutral_language). They say to use gender-neutral terms whenever that can be done with clarity and precision. "Actor" is now a gender-neutral term, not masculine. (You can check Webster's or any recent dictionary to verify this.) And using "actor" doesn't reduce clarity or precision. Leonporter (talk) 14:05, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Kid with the Golden Arm

message: The wiki page for “Kid With the Golden Arm” (1978) states there is no wiki page for an actor named Dick Wei. When you click on Mr. Wei’s hyperlink it redirects the browsing user to a offer to create a page. There actually is a page already created for Mr. Wei but it doesn’t show up when above mentioned hyperlink is clicked, because whoever created the wiki page made a mistake when writing the HTML, and listed Dick Wei as Wei Dick. Now While I find this highly entertaining as well as hilarious, my love for Kung-Fu movies trumps any joke, IMHO. Thank you in advance to anyone who took the time to not only stop and read this, but also fix this error on Mr. Wei’s wiki page.

thread_title:  Reversion of rewrite by [[User:Iamdarthyoshi|Iamdarthyoshi]] 

message: It can be said that the four main "landvættir" or guardians of Iceland are political statement from icelanders or icelandic authors. The statement is "here will be no king"
Snorri Sturluson mentions them in Heimskringla and identifies each one and included in this chapter is a story of Harald bluetooth and that he had heard that icelanders were writing or making undecent poetry about Hararld, so he sends a man to Iceland and see if this is true, the man changes him self into a whale and swims to Iceland, in each quarter of Iceland were creatures that prevented him from the shore, so the man-whale swims back to tell Harald how things were in Iceland, but there was a pack of other creatures also but the main four in north, east, south and west part later got to be the creatures in the coat of arms of iceland in 1919 when the danish king after Iceland became sovereign in 1918 but still a kingdom and the king was the dansih king until 1944.
Now, where did Snorri Sturluson pick up this story? did he fabricate it him self? or did the danish king in 1919 understan what it meant?
The sybols for the landvættir og Iceland are strikingly similar and in same order as the symbols of the main four quarters of the israelit tabernacle (exodus) camp, but one notices the difference is that the lion is thrown out (the symbol for a king or kingdom) and ther dragon from the middle of the camp placed instead of the lion. So was the knowing that the missing lion would also soon mean the crown would also break off as it did in 1944.

Talk:Menntaskóli

message: The article said menntaskóli is equivalent to the last two years of high school and first two years of university in the U.S. But looking at the U.S. section of the high school Wikipedia page, the four years of high school start at age 14-15, 15-16, 16-17 and 17-18 respectively. A youth starts menntaskóla at the age 15-16 (depending on when in the year they are born). This way the first three years should correspond to the last three years of high school. Similarly, while a Bachelor degree takes three years in Iceland, it takes four years in the U.S., further supporting the view that the analogy should be 3 and 1, not 2 and 2. I changed the article thusly.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.69.203.2 (talk) 19:48, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

* Anything Goes, which Cochran produced at the Palace Theatre in 1935, with a run of 261 performances, with Jeanne Aubert as Reno Sweeney (the name changed to Reno La Grange, to suit Aubert's French background), Jack Whiting as Billy Crocker, and Sydney Howard as Moonface Martin. P. G. Wodehouse replaced the American references in the book and lyrics with local references. citing: 
* Escape Me Never -- Cochran was a producer of the Broadway run, though you may have thought that trivial. 
* Nikita Balieff and his troupe, La Chauve-Souris, which Cochran brought to the London Pavilon on 9 Feb. 1921. 
* Managed Royal Albert Hall for 12 years 1926 to 1938 (We’ll Have Manhattan: The Early Work of Rodgers & Hart by Dominic Symonds, Chapter 5, 2015) -- do your sources feel it was important in his career?

Talk:Íslendinga saga

message: I have called the statement referring to Íslendinga saga's impartiality made on this entry into question. This is no longer a consensus in the academic community. It certainly was when the edited volume Sturlustefna was published in 1988; however, Úlfar Bragason's work on the narratology and literary dimensions of Sturlunga saga and subsequent research by numerous researchers (including the chapter authors in the 2017 edited volume Sturla Þórðarson: Skald, Chieftain, Lawman) have underscored the subjective and aesthetic dimensions of the compilation and its component texts. The assumption of "general" impartiality around Sturlunga saga is problematic as, historically, historians have cited the text relatively uncritically when mobilising it as a primary source.

Talk:Kiyoshi Kawakami

message: Hello friends,
The original article read in part that Kawakami "published several anti-war books in the United States and the United Kingdom." This information was perhaps from the web site "biographybase," which stated that he "published several books in the US and UK to stop the War." 
Here is a lesson for all Wikipedians. The above is not, strictly speaking, wrong. But if you ask if Hitler was a nice person, and I answer "he was kind to animals," that wouldn't be incorrect either - "strictly speaking." In fact, Kawakami was engaged in whitewashing the Japanese military seizure of Manchuria to defuse American anger towards Japan, thereby "stopping" (the word here is meant to mean "preventing," presumably) the war. (Note that the Japanese version here notes that he was in fact considered an apologist for Japanese imperialism and was even arrested after the outbreak of war.)
It is true he was a socialist in his youth, but again, this misleads more than it informs. David Horowitz was an editor of Ramparts in his youth. There are many instances of such flip-flopping on the part of ideological extremists, and here, I think, is another. 
Finally, it should be noted that the website linked to at the bottom of the page is highly ideological, and therefore spurious.
