Use of possessive apostrophe at John Haigh

I changed it's twice - once when I saw your post at the Teahouse requesting help for citations, and again just now after you changed its back to it's.

Showing as it's means it is (it's is a contraction of it is). Apostroph#Possessive pronouns and adjectives will confirm this for you - I couldn't find it explained when I reverted your change, otherwise I would've (see what I did there? a contraction using an apostrophe) mentioned in the edit summary.

You massive deletion at Teahouse was reverted in less than one minute. That was vandalism, and stunts like that will get you indefinitely blocked from editing anything.

WP:FILMPLOT

Please note that FILMPLOT is a MOS tyle guideloine and not a mandataory policy. Many of us feel that having the actors' names in the plot section is a service to our readers, since it allows them to read the plot and understand who is playing the part described without having to shift back and forth from the "plot" section to the "cast" section.

I will be reverting your edits using rollback. Please do not continue to do this. Beyond My Ken (talk) 06:19, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

@Beyond My Ken, the WP:FILMPLOT guideline is quite clear and direct on this point. It states Do not include actors' names in the plot summary, as it is considered redundant to the "Cast" section. If you disagree with WP:FILMPLOT or think it does not reflect the current de facto consensus, I'd suggest opening a discussion or RfC at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Film to clarify consensus. (Pete Best Beatles, you're welcome to open the RfC there yourself if you get to it first; just use {{RfC}} and include a direct neutral question at the top like Should this line be removed from WP:FILMPLOT?.) I don't think it'd be a good idea to mass rollback these edits, as they conform with our guidelines as presently written, meaning that it would violate WP:ROLLBACKUSE to rollback them. Best, {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 08:02, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

It is cleaer, but -- again -- it is neither a policy nor is it mandatory. Beyond My Ken (talk) 13:50, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

@Beyond My Ken: That is not a good reason for reverting this editor's work. It is a guideline, yes, and it is still encouraged that all editors follow it. You say that your way allows [the reader] to read the plot and understand who is playing the part described without having to shift back and forth from the "plot" section to the "cast" section. Why? A reader can just scroll a little bit down to #Cast and learn about who plays who. It is not going to kill or hurt them to scroll down so why the repetition? The only thing you're doing is encouraging new readers who stumble onto the articles you have worked on and make them think that that is the correct way to make a plot summary. Just follow the guideline. Many of us feel that having the actors' names in the plot section is a service to our readers So? Just follow the guideline. Wikipedia cares about consistency, and you're disrupting that progress. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 13:57, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Clay Pigeon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Distinguished Service Cross.

Your User Page, films...

I have transgressed by editing your user page, I hope you will forgive me. I am interested in reading the articles you have edited. If you will put your user page film/article titles in wikilink brackets [[ ]] an interested friend can go directly to the article and enjoy! I did this to the first film, Private Hell 36, hope that's okay, just did it to show you an example.

Your post on my Talk, Section "3 thank you's"

PeteBB, I have commented on most of your post. Then, I attempted to reorganize, may have missed some pings. So, please just open the entire section, and you will see that I have interleaved some replies to correspond to your questions & comments. Hope some if this will be helpful! Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 20:25, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

I think I got it all. Moving the responses to under the question was a good move. Guss what, you and I are engaged in an edit conflict! I was writing some more just a minute ago, and the message came up. Now I know a little more, so I copied my work, and now I'll try to past it right here:

@Tribe of Tiger: The was one more issue if forgot to bring up: in the production section, my six additions are basically just one sentence each, I give them a break because they are each conceptionally different, but it looks bad. I wondered if you think there's a way to combine any of them, if need be.

Combined two paragraphs, same topic. Also some mild ce (copyediting)Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 22:14, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

One more issue, with the Reviews: At the start of each review, I alternate between mentioning Source - Author and Author - Source, but I'm not sure if that's enough to sustain interest for six reviews. There's a rhetoical trick to reviews, where you kind of foreshadow what's coming up: "Author X is more positive ... Contemporary reviews were more nuanced..." etc. Maybe I should do that, but I didn't think about that when writing them the first time, I wrote them the way they sounded best at the time.

I like your alterations, adds interest. I think the foreshadowing is a wise course, and serves the reader. Thanks for italicizing the rest of the "newspapers". But, now, I'm wondering if these sources should be wikilinked, if they have WP articles? I did one of them, see what you think, etc. You are more familiar with MOS:FILM.... Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 22:14, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

If you take the time to investigate Pistol for me, which I appreciate, check out the discussion I had with the Edit-conflict editor at User talk:KateS01. They were very civil, but it might be interesting to see the objective mistakes I found (they agreed to all my edits). More interesting are the two subjective edits I want reinstated. One I've accept, but the other one I double down on.

It might seem like I'm an indecisive ball of neuroses, but I don't think so. I just think a lot about making a good encyclopedia, and it's fun to actually talk about this stuff with someone.

I'm going to re-order the reviews right now. I knew about doing them chronologically in film noir articles -- I try to differentiate between new reviews and vintage ones when I add them. I notice some articles don't mention it, probably because the initial writer only had reviews of the old sort (the word contemporary gets very non-intuitive here, doesn't it). If you have both types and don't mention that, it's either very confusing, or not obvious and therefore very damaging, I think. -- Pete Best Beatles (talk) 21:16, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

@Pete Best Beatles made some comments above. In regards to reviews, sometimes a film isn't well-received at first, but then....They may develop a cult following. Or, some years/decades later, reviewers may realize that the film was on the breaking edge, for its time, and now deserves another look. Yes, the word contemporary, can be confusing, very good point. "With the time", when the film was released or "with the time" years later. Can you insert the year, in the reviews? X said this in xyz year....Y said this in zyx year...or some such. Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 00:28, 16 June 2022 (UTCz]

@Tribe of Tiger: Made the final tweaks to Pistol; I think I'm done. The article appears to be done too: views have dropped of precipitately since I first edited it (109,347 views since that day!). Thanks for the heads up about linking the media sources in the Reception section, I totally spaced that out. I do like links, though - I'm proud of the fact that in the article for the film noir The Clay Pigeon I was able to link to the articles "Japanese war crimes" and "Internment of Japanese Americans" in the same sentence! Regarding adding modern reviews and the word "contemporaty", I think I did it right in the article for Baby Face: I added a review identified as "modern", then tweaked the earlier review so it said "contemporary" and I defined it so as not to be ambiguous.

Hello, Pete BB! I have never considered checking the pages views! But, I'm usually working on something "old", not a current event (so to speak) like the Pistol series. Well done, the links on The Clay Pigeon, gives readers the opportunity to learn more about the background and history!

You have discovered the most marvelous solution for reviews, I like "contemporary" and "modern", excellent word choices! I will remember this elegant approach. Regards, Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 03:42, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Help me!

Please help me with... I am looking at the article of a living author and professor, James Naremore. The body of the article lists eight publications of his, but only one of them is in the Bibliography (the only entry there). I would like to improve the article, and as I see it I have three options: 1) add the other seven works to the Bibliography and leave the books in the body of the article, so that there is total duplication, 2) eliminate the one work in the Bibliography, thus eliminating the Bibliography itself, or 3) add the seven books to the Bibliography, making it complete, and deleting all mention of the books in the body of the article. Which of these is preferable? Pete Best Beatles (talk) 03:42, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Feel free to add it to the bibliography section. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 07:11, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

@Primefac:Why are you telling me to add them to the bibliography when you just deleted almost the entire article? I can't see those books anymore, and even if I could I shouldn't add them if they are unsourced. -- Pete Best Beatles (talk) 09:02, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Umm, PBB, the section Primefac removed as "unsourced" is still available in the article's history. Go to the article, click on View history, click view diff for the day removed (as unsourced) from the article, and you will see all the books, etc. You can add the books/publications to the Bibliography section, without sources. PBB, here's a source for the Guggenheim Foundation fellowship [1] mine this one! Hope this will help you, all is not lost! Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 03:46, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Naked Raygun

Hey there. That particular sentence already references the punk scene, and it seems clear in context that Naked Raygun was part of that scene. I'd agree that the band is best described as punk, and they are so described in both their own article and elsewhere in the Big Black article. Probably not needed in that sentence. Cheers. CAVincent (talk) 02:34, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

When the notice of the change to the article came across the transom, only the immediate change was highlighted, and I didn't have time to investigate further. I knew that's how they were described in their article, and that's what we called them back in Chicago! Did you know that they reformed recently, and put out two videos? One is "Living in the Good Times", and the other is "Broken Things (Official Lyric Video)". The latter is especially interesting if you ever spent substantial time designing show flyers, or schlepping around with wheat paste slapping them up. They're on Wax Trax! now, which is mighty strange. The old Wax Trax! record store was practically the center of the Chicago punk scene, but their label was the premiere industrial-dance label in the world, I believe. They gave us Ministry, for God's sake! -- Pete Best Beatles (talk) 03:03, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

I just saw this. Yeah, pretty funny for Naked Raygun to be on Wax Trax. And yeah, as an aging former punk rocker, I'm pretty familiar with both the band and the label. "Vanilla Blue" might still be in my personal top 20 all-time singles. Cheers. CAVincent (talk) 00:00, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, "Vanilla Blue" is a real banger. I especially like "I Don't Know" (Throb Throb) and "Walk in Cold" (Jettison) also. It's interesting to note the latter was written by Erik Spicer, the drummer (he also wrote the catchy "Wonder Beer" off of Understand?). He was the drummer for that unholy alliance between Ian MacKaye and Al Jourgensen that was Pailhead, also on Wax Trax!. Maybe that's where the relationship between NR and WT! began.

You may wish to consider DYK?

As you are expanding existing stub articles, you may wish to explore qualifying for a DYK (Did You Know). I am not an expert here, but read WP:DYK, and most specifically the WP:DYKRULES section. If you expand an existing article by "fivefold", you can qualify for a DYK. "Articles must have a minimum of 1,500 characters of prose" and "no more than seven days old". If you have an interest, I will provide a a tip or two. DYK is not mandatory, of course, but a "feather in the cap", if you are interested. Thought you should know about this.....Regards, Tribe of Tiger ^{Let's Purrfect!} 04:07, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the info on your User Box

Thanks so much for touching base with me to let me know about your nifty new Userbox! I'll get around to adding it soon. I was hardly editing for a couple of years due to a bout with a rare form of cataracts. I had one eye fixed in April, but I still am legally blind in the other and it has slowed me down quite a bit. Most of the active editors, upon whom I used to rely and/or just work with on projects, have gone inactive. so it was nice to get a message. Let me know if you ever feel I can be of assistance.
