Talk:Scriptwriter

message: I think "Scriptwriter" means the same thing as Screenwriter, which already has an existing and more fleshed-out article. I also think the current article confuses the narrow definition of a "Scriptwriter" with the broader term "Writer".
The claim in this article is that "Scriptwriter" is a broad term that encompasses narrower occupations (comic strip writers, playwrites, screenwriters, speechwriters, etc.)  If true, that claim needs to have sources added.
If I'm wrong about the meaning of this word, the article just needs to be expanded and have some sources put in.  If I'm right, we should talk about deleting the article.

replies: text: Hmm... no one else had commented, so I had decided to merge the two articles, until after closer reading I realized that a screenwriter is a type of scriptwriter; namely one who writes plays. I had considered leaving it as a stub, whilst removing the redundant content already included in Screenwriter, and perhaps adding a list of notable screenwriters, as well as using the Main template in simplified sections of each type to link to the main articles. This would probably have been the most sensible thing to do, if I'd had the time (or perhaps anyway ;)), but instead I've converted this into a disambiguation page - the individual articles for the different types of scriptwriters are in total relatively substantial (okay, not screenwriter, but...), so that's another reason I don't/didn't see the need for keeping this as a separate article. If someone else has the time and feels it necessary to convert this back to a (substanial, please don't bother with another stub) separate article again, go ahead. Thanks for bringing this up DirectRevelation; hopefully this change will remove ambiguity/confusion relating to the two terms. --J. Atkins (talk - contribs) 18:12, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Object-modeling language

message: This artical is grossly wrong. OMT and Booch are methods for designing OO classes, as well as language to describe the classes. 
UML is *not* a methodology. It only specifies the language to describe classes (hence the name Unified Modeling *Language*).
:Completely agree. Most of this stuff belongs in this article: Object-oriented modeling not here. UML is an object modeling language. The various methods described here (in the current article, if I have time I'm going to edit it) are modeling methods not languages. MadScientistX11 (talk) 19:13, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

message: As it was before there was no clear distinction between a modeling language and a methodology. The graphic that was here also contributed to that, it was one of my pet peeves with Powerpoint slideware, inconsistent notation, it had boxes that looked the same but in some cases refered to a modeling language (UML) and in other cases a method (RUP). I thought the picture just contributed to the confusion but I found two other ones that I used instead. MadScientistX11 (talk) 14:37, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: As I look at it I realize the article now that I rewrote it is mostly focused on the UML and there should be more about other modeling languages. The thing is the other modeling languages I know of are pretty esoteric and most of the documentation are obscure papers and long discarded manuals (which I no longer have anyway). Also, IMO even for someone seeking a general overview of object modeling languages the first thing they need to know about is UML since I think it's safe to say ANY object modeling language at this point in time, well most likely any they use will just be UML but if it's not it will certainly be heavily influenced by UML. So I think this is a good start, it makes the distinction between the language and the method and at some point people who know more about the older or alternative languages can fill in more details.

message: In addition to being plagiarized, this article also focused solely on the "sequence outline" method of screenwriting. The term sequence is also used in film editing to refer to a sequence of shots.

Talk:Television director

message: I can't believe an article as important as 'television director' has statements like "Aside rattling off rapid-fire commands, it is also the live director's job to be cool under pressure and maintain order among the staff in the control room, on the set, and elsewhere. The director's commands must be artistic, accurate, and calm. There is usually no room for error". Holy crap, are you kidding me? The tone! It hurts.

Talk:Nebojša Medojević

message: Not even close to it. Nebojsa wrote this item by himself and it represents only his wishes. He is running small dusty office in Podgorica and has no actuall power in Montenegro, and by his attitude, he will never have it.
:Huh? The Movement for Changes make a huge success as a new political party, Nebojsa Medojevic was proclaimed the best Montenegrin politician. 
The only difference is that his going into opposition because of Djukanovic's regime nullified his grand reputation.
In a decade or so, hopefully, Nebojsa Medojevic (or his successor) will most definitely be Primer Minister in a coalition government with the Liberal & Civic circles, supported by the Popular Socialists and (hopefully) the Serbs too. His movement is the only organization which is rapidly gaining strength. --PaxEquilibrium 14:44, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Certainly elements of the story have been embellished, but her age is pretty clear - if she authentically died at 96 in '62, as listed, she would have been 95 during the Maryland campaign (a few months earlier, before her birthday in December).

Here's a list of examples for which no indication was found that it includes cutouts (nor digital variations or emulations):
*Tillie, the unhappy hippopotamus (1978/79) by Jiří Trnka studio  (part of Bratři v triku) was broadcast on CBS Children's Film Festival  in the USA in 1984. No footage or indication for cutouts found. According tot the removed entry it "used a variety of different shades of yellows, greens, and grays in a paisley design even before the latter became popular in the 1970s" (note the 1978 production date).
*Mi Mi, the lazy kitten (originally 好猫咪咪) by Shanghai Art Film Studio, which won the won the Best Picture Award from the Ministry of Culture in China in 1979 and was broadcast on CBS Children's Film Festival  in the USA in 1984. It doesn't look like it includes any cutouts (youtube clips can be found by searching for "好猫咪咪")
* Rugrats pilot episode Tommy Pickles and the Great White Thing was claimed in a removed entry to be "originally produced in Hungary (1989)" as Tommy és a Nagy Fehér Dolog (1989) , "used construction paper cutout characters to create shadow effects in 1989" "and aired on ABC (ABC Kidavision) (1989)" "and later used traditional hand-painted cel characters in 1990 produced by Klasky Csupo". No reliable info was found to support these claims.

This article gave me exactly the introduction to the subject that I happened to be looking for. The tags at the top made it look as if someone had gone off and written a whole manual on the how-to of pulling focus, but I don't find that to be the case here at all.
