Talk:Ashcan comic

message: I came across this page while searching for a definition of the term "ashcan comic".  My other searches seemed to imply that the term is also popularly used to refer to a one-off comic (i.e., not a series), but I'm not really sure.  If "ashcan comic" is used interchangeably with "ashcan copy", and they can mean either the definition stated in the article or the one I'm implying, then perhaps the article should be updated to include this alternate usage.  --Piquan 12:56, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: "Aschan comic"

message: I'm not entirely sure the Rhoades book cited is an appropriate source. From what I've seen, it's a copy-paste job that doesn't attribute its original sources — it has quotes from Bernd Eichinger, producer of the 1994 Fantastic Four movie, lifted from Los Angeles magazine March 2005 without crediting that source. We need to use the original sources of quotes and claims, not the the copycat that may or may not have transcribed passages correctly and in context. --Tenebrae (talk) 17:00, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rhoades book

message: The example doesn't make sense. In fact, I'm not sure the whole explanation makes sense.  There is no copyright in a title -- many books have the same title, so printing a version just to gain precedence for a title makes no sense from a copyright point of view.  It also makes no sense from a trademark point of view -- under the old law, you had to actually sell something in intestate commerce to gain a Federal trademark. Under the new law, you can register a trademark in advance of sale. In neither case does printing a few copies and throwing them out do you any good.
I'm probably missing something here, but that suggests that there is a problem with the article -- if it leave me, very familiar with both copyright and trademark, in the dark, where will it leave the average reader? . . Jim - Jameslwoodward (talk to me • contribs)  21:37, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Jim--under the old copyright law in the U.S., didn't something have to be published in order to receive federal copyright status?

message: Is there a cite for his death being AIDS-related? I don't see it in the article or any of the referenced sources, but the article is in "AIDS-related deaths in California" for some reason.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.189.24.195 (talk) 17:23, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The question of Bolet's cause of death appears not to be settled.  The NYT states heart failure - but the obit may just be going on what info was released by Bolet's estate or spokesperson.  Benko is an inside source who is more likely to know the truth.  I've heard that Bolet died of AIDS for over a decade.  Of course, it may also be possible that while Bolet had AIDS, his death was unrelated to AIDS.  People with AIDS/HIV die of unrelated causes, like heart failure, all the time.  What I am going to do is add the line, "Gregor Benko states that Bolet died of AIDS" with a source listing.  If the cause of Bolet's death is open to question, there is no need to cover that up in a Wikipedia article.THD3 (talk) 19:46, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

message: A query on 4 point lighting definition. 3 point lighting is key , back and fill, agreed. 4-point in my experience is 4 lamps at roughly 90 degrees to each other. This permits acceptible lighting on the subject at any angle in the horizontal plane. I come from a formal broadcast lighting background and realise that this may not correspond with stills techniques, however, as the "subject" is all-important whatever illuminates the set or background could be no lights or many lights bares no relation to the 2,3,or 4 point lighting of the subject.

Category talk:People from County Dublin

message: Note: For something like Belfast, we have the duality of :Category:Natives of County Antrim and :Category:Natives of Belfast, but for the moment, we only have this one category for all from the County and the City of Dublin.
As the tendrils of urban sprawl slowly creep out into the surrounding nearby rural areas and real estate values inexorably rise, thereby displacing those family farms, Dublin seems destined to dominate its county as a minor megalopolis.  In the distant future, this may also happen with Belfast, but not in a time frame that we need to concern ourselves with, thus we can tolerate the asymmetry of the Belfast duality and the County Dublin singularity.
Oh heck! It used to matter more if one were a true native of Dublin City, so we will create the duality. -- Mosa123ic 15:40, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Unreferenced material 

message: There are several assertions in this article that are incorrect, in particular the ridiculous assertion that the orcs in Minas Morgul had become "isolated" from those in Mordor proper.  The conflict between Shagrat and Gorbag had nothing to do with any ostensible "isolation," whether geographic or political, apart from the tendency of orcs to quarrel with others of different units or tribes in the absence of strong leadership.  The illustration of an emblem from the city is also wrong, as Tolkien describes the token of the Morgul orcs as a "ghastly disfigured" moonface, not a skull beside a crescent moon.  This is all unsourced speculation and simply wrong. 124.33.208.179 (talk) 08:09, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
