thread_title:  Rewards 

message: Youssef Chahine gay or bisexual ? Currently both Chahine's article and talk are categorized under LGBT-related articles, and I can't find any sources on that within the article. Give sources please. In spite that this is a legitimate addition, we cannot add it based solely on rumors, or references to homo/bisexuality in his autobiographical-inspired movies (he might very well have had fantasies or curiosity for relations with other men, but had never went into one). We should have either a credible source commenting on him being either gay or bisexual, or a source on him coming out as one. I have removed the references for now, until we reach a consensus on this topic-- G o a r a n y     talk   04:21, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: LGBT Director

message: I added a section with this name. It was summarily removed by user 70.121.33.78 without any discussion or comment. This is contrary to Wikipedia policies. There's no doubt that such themes often exist in his work nor that they were also controversial. As such, they are appropriate for this article. There was no claim about the directors own personal life or sexual orientation. Before reverting edits, users like 70.121.33.78 should first engage in a discussion on this page. Thank you.

thread_title:  Filmography  

message: According to admin Sancho's rule on the matter on Omar Sharif's Talk page, if Chahine's father was of Lebanese descent, this does not justify labelly Chahine himself as of Lebanese origin.  This would be original research, which is not allwed in Wikipedia.  --Arab Cowboy (talk) 16:26, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: To: 132.198.88.98

message: Hello, 
The article is rather complete and detailed for a historical of such historical importance and I enjoyed the thoroughness of the information presented. Though, I have two observations related to structure and completeness of the information in this English version of the article. Nontheless, these remain minor observations. 
In terms of structure, I found odd how controversies and theme were separated. Moreover, I think that mentioning the theme of sexuality as sole to what his work tackles would be very minimal. It is essential in that case to merge what is mentioned previously with Youssef Chaine's affinity to Pan-arabism along with that theme of sexuality, because at first glance, it reduces it may reduce his scope of work to a narrow frame of subjects while in fact he did touch upon more than that. Examples of themes he tackled are pan-arabism, arab cinema, industry crisis, tradition vs modernity etc... So I suggest that themes be completed with the adequate information which leaves the opportunity for the sub heading of controversies to be placed or mentioned under tackled themes. 
Additionaly, it is important to note that some of the essential information are incomplete. For example, Youssef Chahine's award nominations and wins recalll more than the mentioned in the article and it is important to refer to them. 
Hope it helps and good luck!

thread_title:  Peer Review - Yassine  

message: This seems like a very well-organized and complete article. A few notes that might be helpful are: under the Gay-Bisexual themes in his work subheading, you might want to make it into a different form rather than having it in a paragraph form, which might be more pleasing to the eye. So something like having the film title on one line and having a short description of the film under it, rather than it being in a paragraph. The leading section is strong and is clear in terms of explaining who Youssef Chahine is. The external links and See Also subheadings are also a good touch to the article in terms of helping the reader gain more information. I would also move the awards subheadings to go under the Gay-Bisexual subheading. Hope this helps.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nooranalthani (talk • contribs) 19:16, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
