Quid pro quo at GAN

Hi Ben. Can't help but notice you have several TV related articles nominated for GA. I have one there as well - Dark Angel (TV series). Just making you an offer as i'd rather not wait for several more weeks (or maybe months) before someone reviews mine. If you'd be willing to review mine i'll review any nomination of your choice in return, or i'll just pick one at random if you have no preference. No worries if you're too busy though. Let me know. Cheers. Freikorp (talk) 22:40, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

@Freikorp: I've been reviewing a lot lately. I could take it, but there are three articles that I would have to review before. Let me know what you want to do. BenLinus1214^talk 23:21, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Yeah no worries, that's fine with me, review the other three first and then review mine. I'll start reviewing one of yours now. I haven't made this offer to anyone else regarding this particular article so I don't anticipate anyone else will start reviewing it any time soon, but if Dark Angel has been reviewed by the time you get around to it, you can pick another GAN of mine if you want to (I keep a list on my user page), but don't feel pressured to do that if the topics fall outside of what you're comfortable with. Cheers. Freikorp (talk) 01:01, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Roller rink scene image

Ben, the image on the Boys Don't Cry (film) page are compromised of different images, but it comprises as a "whole". Thus the image is already approved under the fair use status, so why did you remove it? Ashton 29 (talk) 07:01, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Ashton 29: Personally, I think the image is very helpful, but I'm trying to get this up to FA status, and an editor flagged this from the last FAC. I suggest you take it up with him. BenLinus1214^talk 14:07, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Ashton 29: I assume you're talking about File:Boysdontcryrollerrinkscene.JPG? Four separate screenshots are almost certainly not justified (see WP:NFCC#3a), and, regardless of whether it's one file or four, that does count as four separate screenshots. This is made explicit at WP:NFLISTS: "the "extent" of use is determined by the number and resolution of non-free images, and not the number of files". Josh Milburn (talk) 14:58, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@J Milburn:–if each file were to be uploaded individually, all under fair use, could it then be assembled to a whole of four shots? @BenLinus1214:–I was responsible for getting this article to GA status way back in 2010 and would be of assistance if you're interested in pursuing FA status. It's certainly a legendary film, particularly in today's social and political context. Ashton 29 (talk) 02:29, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer! You can certainly be involved if you like, but I feel as though I'm fine with handling it myself. In addition to J Milburn's initial comments, it's gone through a peer review and a copyedit. It will be nominated again pretty soon, I think. On the image, I think that if you uploaded all four files, that would constitute excessive use of non-free content. But a non-free image in the cinematography section would be helpful, and there are lots of scenes that are described in that section which a single image would be very helpful for! BenLinus1214^talk 03:23, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

I agree with Ben- four screenshots seems excessive. If you genuinely feel that the cinematography section is lacking without a screenshot, one could probably be acceptable with a well-written (not just copy-pasted) rationale. Josh Milburn (talk) 08:04, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

@Ashton 29: Yeah, I would recommend uploading a screenshot of the opening Raging Bull-esque part—that would be a helpful illustration. Or a screenshot of where they strip Brandon. But I would prefer the former. BenLinus1214^talk 12:44, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

@BenLinus1214:I feel like the roller rink scene is probably more significant, given that Pierce stated it completes Brandon's transformation. I haven't seen the film for sometime, but the Raging Bull-esque part would be the highway scene in which Brandon is driving? Any specific shot in particular?Ashton 29 (talk) 03:00, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

@Ashton 29: I agree that the roller rink scene is more important, but can the visual aspect really be illustrated by one screenshot? Also, yeah, that's the Raging Bull part. Nothing in particular. Whatever you think is best. BenLinus1214^talk 12:49, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

@BenLinus1214: I uploaded one frame from the roller rink scene, depicting Brandon's grand entrance into manhood. Hopefully it suits the article needs and fits nicely within the Cinematography section. Ashton 29 (talk) 05:19, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

2015 GA Cup - Round 2

WikiProject Good Articles's 2015 GA Cup - Round 2 Greetings, GA Cup competitors! Wednesday saw the end of Round 1. The Rambling Man, who was eliminated during the first round in our last competition, earned an impressive 513 points, reviewed twice as many articles (26) as any other competitor. It was a tight race for second for first-time competitors BenLinus1214 and Tomandjerry211, who finished second and third with 243 and 224 points, respectively. Close behind was Wugapodes, who earned 205 points. The change in our points system had an impact on scoring. It was easier to earn higher points, although the key to success didn't change from last time, which was choosing articles with older nomination dates. For example, most of the articles The Rambling Man reviewed were worth 18 points in the nomination date category, and he benefited from it. BenLinus1214 reviewed the longest article, A Simple Plan (at 26,536 characters, or 4,477 words), the 1994 film starring Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton, and Bridget Fonda and directed by Sam Raimi, and earned all possible 5 points in that category. After feedback from our participants, the judges slightly changed the rule about review length this time out. Shorter reviews are now allowed, as long as reviewers give nominators an opportunity to address their feedback. Shorter reviews are subject to the judges' discretion; the judges will continue their diligence as we continue the competition. Despite having fewer contestants at the beginning of Round 1 than last time, 132 articles were reviewed, far more than the 117 articles that were reviewed in Round 1 of the inaugural GA Cup. All of us involved should be very proud of what we've accomplished thus far. The judges are certain that Round 2 will be just as successful. 16 contestants have moved onto Round 2 and have been randomly placed in 4 groups of 4, with the top 2 in each pool progressing to Round 3, as well as the top participant ("9th place") of all remaining competitors. Round 2 has already begun and will end on August 29 at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Round 2 and the pools can be found here. Good luck and remember to have fun! Cheers from Dom497, Figureskatingfan, 3family6 and Jaguar, and MrWooHoo. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletter, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant still competing, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

Your review of the GA nomination for The Wanderers

Hi, thanks for reviewing The Wanderers for me. It's much appreciated! I was wondering if you can have another look at the article since I've made many recent improvements. Its still possibly missing some things, but I could do with your advice. Also, there are a few things I'd like to go over. Firstly, there is no information whatsoever on the exact budget of the film, so this cannot be placed in the article's info box. Also, regarding your concerns with "ref 2". All of the information from "ref 2" are from an interview that Phil Kaufman (the movie's director) did with Tom Philip in 2014. There was another link to corroborate this, but the website has currently undergone technical maintenance, so it was removed from the article about a month or two ago. If your still concerned with "ref 2", you're more than welcome to email the owners of the website/article within "ref 2". They will be able to corroborate what I have said. I have read the article the quotes are from myself. Also with the critical reception, there may be 18 review on Rotten Tomatoes, but many of the critics have either left simple numbered ratings with no comments, or the links are broken to read their reviews further. I have looked elsewhere and have included other reviews in the critical reception section. Also, the Manual of Style/Film section on Wikipedia says that the critical reception goes below the box office performance as it is. As said again, I'd like you to have another look through the article and the changes I've made (if possible). Also, any more recommendations will be appreciated. Thanks again! -- Metal121 (talk) 07:08, August 6, 2015 (GMT).

Please let me know what your thoughts are on the present draft, and would be grateful to you for feedback.

Hi OgbeniAdejokun--It's looking a lot better. For now, I have a minor writing point and a sourcing thing. The writing point is that there's too much boldface in the whole article. In an article like yours, the article's subject and section headers should be the only bolded words--see MOS:BOLD. Also, I would check your sources to see if they cover the subject or the subject's companies. For an article on the subject, a decent amount have to be on the subject and not the companies.

Olney Amputee Dove Hunt

I created a page for this organization this afternoon. Someone has redirected this page to One-Arm Dove Hunt. This has put the Olney Amputee Dove Hunt in the position of possible legal action by the owner of the One-Arm Dove Hunt. Mrs. Northrup made it clear at this website that the One-Arm Dove Hunt is no more. Http://onearmdovehunt.com. The Olney Amputee Dove Hunt is a new organization with different ownership.

What do I need to do to get this put back like it was.

Also the prior information on the One-Arm Dove Hunt is gone. That needs to be put back as well.
