Talk:The Snows of Kilimanjaro (short story)

message: 16-May-2007: I have split text from the book article to create "The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952 film)" since the film and book are both famous and likely to expand with extensive details in each article.  With the film starring Gregory Peck and Ava Gardner (both mega-movie-stars), many sections could be written about the film and its public reception.
The decision to split was mainly one about the effort to define two articles (which I have done).  Logically, the 2 articles simplify the view for film-versus-book details.  A similar split was done with "Out of Africa" and "Out of Africa (film)" since both, in that case, were also famous (the book remained in print since publication in 1937). I linked book/film with hat-notes atop each. -Wikid77 11:12, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the work on the split.  I performed some cleanup involving removing inappropriate disambig hatnotes and some other minor formatting changes that appeared to be residual of the split.  If you have questions about my changes, consult the applicable MoS sections.  Cheers, Robert K S (talk) 09:03, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Split book/film

message: For disambiguation, I simply added hat-notes linking book/film at the top of each article, rather than have a disambiguation-page.  However, such a famous elegant name ("Snows of Kilimanjaro") probably has/will become a tourist agency, or an upscale housing subdivision (or a ride at Disneyland), so creating a disambiguation-page might be needed within a few months. For now, I'm hoping to focus attention on expanding the book/film articles, rather than writing about any spinoff names. -Wikid77 11:12, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

message: A famous czech traveller Miroslav Zikmund claimed in the book Afrika snů a skutečností, vol. 2, to pick up and take along the carcass of a leopard during their climb on the top (just under the rim) of Kilimanjaro in January 1947, possibly still making a part of his traveller's collection.
