hi

Hi Erik See you updated the Mary Zophres page I updated. I also love film and the Oscars. Nice to meet a fellow editor who also does :) TC99 (talk) 15:22, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, TC99! Yes, I have done some work on it in the past. Before I did that, it looked like this. Zophres has had a really good career arc so far! :) Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 15:25, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Wow! I wonder if she will win. Colleen Atwood will provide some serious competition TC99 (talk) 15:29, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have not had a chance to see Fantastic Beasts yet! I missed it in theaters. I guess I will have to see the featured costumes when the Oscars air. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 15:47, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Apt Pupil

I thought I found that at TCMDb, but I could be misremembering. It's definitely on IMDb, but I thought I checked the other to confirm. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 19:50, 18 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

TheOldJacobite, I guess you can include it. What I mentioned in the edit summary was a recollection of routine IP edits adding StudioCanal or some variation of it to film articles even though it was never verifiable. I was concerned this was continued misinformation somehow. However, it does look like it exists, and there may be other companies to add too. See this screenshot from the Apt Pupil chapter of Frames of Evil: The Holocaust as Horror in American Film: screenshot. But do we want to include all of these? Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:14, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, I don't think we want to include all of those. I would question the notability, and even the continued existence, of some of those companies. There has to be a standard for which companies to include and which to ignore, I just don't what that standard should be. In other areas of WP, we have standards that say the mere existence of something, even with reliable sources to prove said existence, is not enough to argue for its inclusion. The same standard has to apply here. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 17:44, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
We can go with the Variety review, then, perhaps? That would warrant the inclusion of Bad Hat Harry. I don't recall why I did not include it before; I probably referenced something else that did not mention it. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 18:45, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sleight

Really don't want to annoy since you're a great editor and a great worker. But take a look at this. Cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:10, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I did not consider looking at Google Books about the general term "sleight". Not quite sure if it warrants an encyclopedic article, but the results seem to have some good content. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 12:38, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm just saying that "a sleight" is magician-speak for a sleight of hand. It's the same thing. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:23, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I thought you were suggesting it as a stand-alone article apart from sleight of hand. Are you wanting to move the film article based on this? I would rather that we expand the hatnote at the film article to link to sleight of hand more directly. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 16:38, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited White savior, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Industrial complex (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Sorry, I get carried away sometimes.
