Pathala Bhairavi

Hello Doctor! I will always be thankful to you for reviewing Mayabazar which has considerably changed content-wise after its GAR. Now, i have nominated Pathala Bhairavi to GA-status, the film whose success was the reason we all are watching Mayabazar today.

All the issues have been addressed Doctor. Please have a look. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 14:45, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

I understood. Thank you, doctor. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:54, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

I think my only advice Pavanjandhyala is expand on themes and some of the detail if you can, but I'd imagine it's already pretty comprehensive.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:12, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm trying real hard, doctor. There are no special write-ups which highlight the film's themes and intentions. They are only "praising" it. Full of hype. They cant be used for critical reception also. Such worse they were. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 13:20, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Obscure blues bands

I stumbled across The Sacred Mushroom by a random Google search and thought "if they've got an AllMusic page, perhaps they can have an article", created it, then released it had been speedy deleted a few times. That just shows that people don't bother searching for sources and just reach straight for the "zomg non notable deleted now dammit" buttons doesn't it? :-/ Ritchie333 16:43, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

Well it's lasted 10 minutes so far anyway haha!♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:48, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

What, the band or the article? As I'm now an admin I can see the previously deleted versions, which are substantially the same, except for the sources. Ritchie333 16:51, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

DC Jazz Festival

I'll see if I can find some. Don't think I'll be attending myself - I have concerts this weekend, and a huge chunk of my time about to be taken up with a variety of things. And it's not really my scene, though perhaps I'll have a look in. There's a Flickr user who might have some good free pictures, though...he's fairly active around here.

reference to out of print book that is helpful on South American film

Don't know if you have this reference, but it is in English and gives plot synopses, background, etc. South American Cinema. Apparently the entire book is now available via pdf. SusunW (talk) 16:49, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

And this lovely thing from Chile, from 1947 could prove invaluable, though it doesn't help resolve my question on the dispute Pampa Film had with Lumiton and San Miguel Studios. 1947 Chilean film magazine SusunW (talk) 20:31, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

Krimuk90

Please Dr. You have to helpregarding this user. This user has threaten me that he is planning to get me blocked with the help of hisadministrator friends. He is manipulating Chopra's article for showingshe is nothing as compared to Her favorites Ranaut and Padukone. When I told himthat I will make it clear how much he is wrong, he threatened me with block warning. Please helpme.—Prashant 03:29, 7 June 2015 (UTC) You have to look at |this. First he changed the referrnce and added in Summary that the source says a different thing. This user is manipulating so much. Also, you were the one who added this. As you said it was not neccessary to say this was hit and this was flop. But, this user is doing so much worse. He does not use same thing for his articles in Ranaut and Balan and Padukone. Please help.—Prashant 05:20, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Krimuk in my experience is mature enough to make decent editorial decisions. I haven't looked into what he has changed, but I doubt he'd falsely add content or manipulate the content in an article. I'd rather stay out of it, sorry.♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:41, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

So, where I should go? Tell me. He always starts a new problem for me. I feel you even care about me. I suppose you were my friend. You should have helped me. —Prashant 08:34, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

You know, I have started feeling that my edits are bad and Krimuk's is good. It just seems only, by getting reverted all the time without proper reasions. That quote was added after alot of discusssion as she received mixed reviews for that. If someone received a mixed review we have to add both things and not only negative.—Prashant 10:53, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Why do you have to keep being a childish asshole all of the time? You take everything personally. The wordpress source doesn't look a mainstream authoritative source and the quote doesn't really add anything of value. Krimuk is a very good editor and he might have a point about some of the quotes, that doesn't mean I devalue anything you have to say. Grow up.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:56, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

OKya, Now you gave a reason that ite source was not reliable. Yes, Krimuk90 is a good editor, who is good at manipulating. LOOK this at Kangana Ranaut's article. The two of her films which bombed miserabley and was panned by critics are discussed though this "Ranaut followed Queen by playing an aggressive politician in the the black comedy Revolver Rani and a medical intern in the political drama Ungli (both 2014)." Is it NPOV?, which he is accusing me of by reverting things. I am just neutral. See it yourself.—Prashant 11:07, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Hey, I think the part which you removed was okay. Yes, she does not got much praise for Krrish 3 (a joke of a film). It looks fine. Atleat reply.—Prashant 11:45, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

List

I have just created a list of films that I have seen. What do you think of it, doc? — Ssven2 07:37, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Very nice! Where's the Hollywood films you've seen?♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:28, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

The list as of now is only on the Indian films that I have seen. As for Hollywood films, I will add them soon enough after my exams. BTW, I'm not doing any major editing on any article right now (just countering vandalism and helping Pavan with Mayabazar's PR mostly apart from the list). I created Panama Pasama recently though as I liked the film as it was a jolly outing and it had beautiful songs. Do let me know if you have watched any of my films on my list that you haven't watched yet. — Ssven2 08:35, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Imagine how my list would look with loads of those films on your list haha!! Getting subtitles is a problem unfortunately for Tamil films. I long for the day when Amazon Prime Video literally provides access to any film across world cinema as well as Hollywood and subtitles are provided in an array of languages for every film.. I'd happily pay a decent annual fee to get access to everything!♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:38, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

True, but Thiruvilaiyadal (which I have given 5 stars) has subs. This is in case if you still haven't watched it. 1.7 million views on YouTube and counting! — Ssven2 08:41, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll try to see it sometime soon! Convenient period too as I'm watching mostly films of the mid 60s at the moment.♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:44, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Brown

Can you make each of these dark brown/medium brown (such as Template:Herbal teas is dark green/medium green): Template:Coffee, Template:Coffee production Template:Starbucks, Template:Types of coffeehouses? Dunno about Template:Fair trade, the only other one in Category:Coffee and tea navigational boxes. --Rosiestep (talk) 19:22, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

I would, but a lot of people are anal about coloured nav plates. Before long it would be back to the boring generic blue! In some cases, like colleges they're a bit annoying but a nice subtle brown for coffee articles I like.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:28, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I know about those folks. Lol! But I think a brown color-convention for coffee nav templates makes unifying sense, just as the tea nav one is green, and Coca cola is red. --Rosiestep (talk) 19:35, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

I like having colour themes for the agricultural industry series, but I think most of the other ones I started have been altered to standard now. Template:Tomato production should be red, Template:Orange production should be orange etc!♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:37, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Noo, check out these deletions . Can you recreate them as they were, and we can start more than one or two articles. Disappointed that they were deleted.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:38, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Yup, I can restore them, but one template at a time, me thinks, after we've got the "List of..." created and maybe 3? country articles for the crop. Which one next? --Rosiestep (talk) 20:21, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

• List of countries by avocado production - Template:Avocado production
• List of countries by corn production - Template:Corn production
• List of countries by eggplant production - Template:Eggplant production
• List of countries by lime production - Template:Lime production
• List of countries by orange production - Template:Orange production

Yeah let's wait until we've got Coffee and mining out of the way first!♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:13, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

Amelia Bence

Longest thing I ever translated. I cannot look at it any more. Someone needs to proof it and I am absolutely positive that it is more than start class, but have no idea what it is. The documentation was well cited and on Spanish wiki that is amazing. I did change some of the referencing if I could not find the source. I also took out a bunch of quotes and flowery stuff, but it is still a really, really long file. Have worked on it all weekend. I am going for a glass of vino. I deserve it.

Re: La Caravelle

We can try. The only down side is that this wasn't the type of place that generated publicity (celebrity photos at the restaurant, etc.) material. Where Billingsley had a house photographer, went out of his way to get the press in the door and printed postcards and the like, I have yet to find a photo of the restaurant's interior--original decor or re-done--that isn't on the couple's website. You can find photos from Toots Shor's and El Morocco because they wanted publicity the same as Sherm did for the Stork. Maybe they would release some photos via OTRS if they were contacted, since the restaurant has been gone foe a while now. BTW-I have more Stork Club photos to upload when I get a minute (and I've had to resort to archiving some of my backlog). Life magazine forgot to renew the copyrights on all of its 1944 issues and some of its 1945 ones-the issue with the article & photos of the Stork Club is one in the 1944 lot.

Maasella edwardsi

I have done some more work on Maasella edwardsi. For some peculiar reason, the Ozalp & Ateş article was fully available to me earlier in the day but now I can only get the abstract. Anyway, I had read the whole article and it was apparent that this coral does not grow on sand but on rocks, often those overgrown with coralline algae, so I had to remove part of what you wrote.

Shiny stuff

Hey Blofeld, how many DYKs does SusunW have and should she get a shiny award for them? Also, I just passed 50 DYK and I want a shiny award too, but not sure if it's copacetic to give it to myself or not. Also, Tigerboy1966 has probably topped his last milestone and could use a shiny thing too. Wanna be a prize-hander-outer? Montanabw 22:47, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Martín Fierro Awards

Don't even ask how I found this. I must have searched a million times and just stumbled onto it. I put it in Wayback. Martín Fierro Awards by year SusunW (talk) 02:47, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Check the link, on mine it says "www.isaproduccion.com.ar is unavailable or may not exist"♦ Dr. Blofeld 05:44, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

How timely that discovered it today and put it in Wayback. Here's the archived link SusunW (talk) 07:20, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Can you create an article on Premios Martín Fierro then?♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:40, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Did a redirect. There is an article on Martín Fierro Awards SusunW (talk) 14:41, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Okay, I expanded it some with sourcing. I have no idea how to create tables for subsequent years and need to get back to my women. While I was looking, I discovered the only link cited was dead, and fortunately was able to find it in Wayback. Hopefully someone can create the years or even one awards page from the references I found. SusunW (talk) 16:08, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

M/c Guardian

Saw your ping. I've been thinking about it and doing some research, as well as talking to a few people. The Guardian contains a potted history anyway and the gist seems to be that simply renaming and moving a newspaper doesn't justify a separate article: its outlook etc remained the same, it remained under the Scott Trust etc. So, I'm a bit torn here: it might be better to try expanding the history in the existing article and then wait for someone to say "hey, this is getting a bit big - fork it". - Sitush (talk) 10:25, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

I think the main The Guardian article ought to have a summary of Manchester period and then a main article link to one in more detail. Given how many articles cite The Manchester Guardian I think it's a pretty important article which should quite rightly have its own article on here.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:30, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

OK, I'll give it a go. - Sitush (talk) 10:33, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

I'll quickly gather together some material from the main article to set it on its way.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:33, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

@Sitush: The Manchester Guardian, we're up and running...♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:55, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

So I have seen. I'm staying away from that - it is awful, sorry. - Sitush (talk) 11:59, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

I can't be bothered then, I've reverted back.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:01, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

@Sitush: I've left it as a clean stub with the book sources I'd gathered. Hopefully that is almost acceptable to you now.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:12, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Potential film issue

As you already know, I've been working on the Thanhouser films - though it seems that someone thinks they don't meet N. To make them FA - films would need appropriate context and that is somewhat difficult to do with more than century having past. I've gotten new sources and new materials, but with each work found and discovered it becomes clear that Thanhouser is very unique and very special. At peak produced 25% of the Independent films, those outside the Edison Trust - Universal later forming and rising to exceed. However quantity was not a problem because Thanhouser films helped define and found the techniques of the industry, even bring political and social issues to light. Narrative structure and the quality of the productions far exceeded the other studios - namely The Star of Bethlehem (film). Ugh - I don't want to feel like USROADs, but considering the information and details which exist it seems going about it from specific to broad is not someone's cup of tea. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 06:08, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

A lot of them won't be potential FA material of course because the info may be very sketchy so not read like an FA, but I reckon there's a few of them with more content and quality of info which could be brought up to FA. There's absolutely no question about notability though, Thanhouser and Edison Studios were the studios at least in my mind for that late 1900s - early 1910s period, and I think you've done very well to find what you have on all of them. Whoever thinks they're not notable is clueless about the history of film. Which ones do you consider your best articles to date? One of my favourites is A Dog's Love which I also started, that's a real gem, I'm not sure there would be enough to get it to FA level though! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:29, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Well, new material has come out and there was some more information on even A Dog's Love which went into how the film was unique for the special effects with the double exposure. Its not as if the information is going to remain static - though many films are lost, much information is still being found and archived. A lot of the Falstaff ones will not get their own pages and numerous ones will be combined, but I the most interesting one will probably be The Cry of the Children. Just need to get to it.

Official historical monuments

It's about time to start splitting these by department, no? I believe a stab has been taken at it. I can help out with AWB and my other tools, but I'm going to be rather busy these next few weeks, so I can only do a little here and there. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 13:32, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I took the liberty of doing Bas-Rhin for right now. Category:Official historical monuments of Bas-Rhin, though I think the name could be changed. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 13:41, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. Yes, Alsace would be a good place to start.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:22, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I'll break down what others I can in the short-term, then. Off and on today, most likely. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 14:35, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I've started it for Bas Rhin Château de Birkenwald. The others can be stub sorted like that. Best to do it gradually, region by region.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:44, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I've begun a few of the monuments categories. Have a look at Dordogne - there are a lot more chateaux listed than there are historical monuments, and I have a feeling that a lot of the former would fit into the latter category. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 15:30, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I've stub sorted Bas-Rhin, I count almost 50 struct stubs in Template:BasRhin-struct-stub, mostof the articles seemed to be start class! Another 10-15 stubs to create and it can have its own category.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:30, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

@Ser Amantio di Nicolao: You're probably right on Dordogne. You know what, I'd be more comfortable with the formal "Monument historique" in xxx. What about you? Category:Official historical monuments of France in Bas-Rhin IMO should be Category:Monument historique in Bas-Rhin. We use Bien de Cultural in xx for Spain too.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:38, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I have no problem with it - monument historique is the title we use on the main article. Double-check the French, though - I believe it should be Category:Monuments historiques in Bas-Rhin. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 15:43, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm not sure, I don't think we're referring to it as a plural, we're referring to it as a title of a listed monument. Bien de Interes Cultural in xx isn't the plural either. Perhaps Category:Monument historique sites in Bas-Rhin would make more sense?.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:47, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Well, no, because monument historique is a singular noun and not an adjective. (I can't comment on the Spanish as I don't know the language.) It would sound peculiar to me as an adjective. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 15:51, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Yes I agree, I think it should be OK then as Monuments historiques in xxx. For some reason it didn't seem right initially, I was thinking along the lines of National Heritage sites. I'll propose a change at CFD.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Done here Misplaced Pages:Categories for discussion/Log/2015 June 16 . It should be easy to rename all using AWB later anyway.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:07, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Renaming won't be a problem - I have a script that can help. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 16:09, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

@Ser Amantio di Nicolao: See the naming on French wiki here.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:54, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Huh. That's surprising. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 16:56, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I took the liberty of changing the CFD entry, then...best to do what the French do. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 16:57, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

"Of" or "in" France?♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:02, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm not sure it makes any difference, honestly. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 17:09, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I think "of" works fine.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:22, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think "in" is better than "of". "Of" implies that they were recognized by the department; "in" merely locates them geographically. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 17:57, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

@Ser Amantio di Nicolao:, the reason I asked originally was not because it particularly mattered, but you did sau best to do what the French do, and "en" I think would be "in". I've now struck 60 stubs anyway and started the category. Scary how organized and how many files are in the commons on some of those missing churches like this.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:29, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm not too terribly surprised - there are large numbers of articles on monuments in French that have yet to be transferred over. Talking of which, most of the chateaux in Dordogne appear to be monuments as well. I'll add them to the category tonight using AWB. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 19:38, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

I've updated the by-department categories and filled them using a script. Everything should match now. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 20:57, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for that.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:49, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Château/castle

Sorry, I've just rather brutally reverted or partially reverted some of your edits. You added the to some articles about castles. In English (and this is, of course, English Misplaced Pages) "château" is used to refer to French examples of what in English would be called palaces or mansions or stately homes. The French are less fussy, having a smaller vocabulary. They use "château" in that sense, but also for castles, vineyards and even water towers ("château d'eau"). It causes a lot of confusion, even for the French. (Direction signs can be quite interesting! You can never be sure what you will find if you follow a sign to "Château de XXXX". An English friend of mine was bemused to find himself staring at a water tower when he expected s medieval defensive structure!) In English, "castle" is for the military building. This has caused considerable confusion here before,, hence the page List of castles in France and the categories for castles in each French region, e.g. .

There are, of course, some structures that are both castle (as originally built) and château (after later modification): Château d'Amboise is a classic example. Emeraude (talk) 06:31, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Emeraude You're preaching to an experienced editor with chateaux who knows fully well this, I've known this since about 2007. Why do you think I created all of the chateaux categories separate from "castles". I don't see where I've called something a castle. All I did was stub sort, and copied the existing Template:France-castle-stub which includes both castles and chateaux in one for convenience in stub sorting. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:09, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Apologies. I didn't mean to preach - I was up very early - and I do fully acknowledge your experience in this field.Emeraude (talk) 07:43, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Ah I see what happened, I categorized some of the castles with titles Chateau de with Chateaux without looking at the articles and realizing they were castles. Sorry about that. I still think then you should create Category:Castles in Haut-Rhin rather than clog up the main department category.♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:12, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

You may be right, but it took some time to create categories for castles in regions! (These categories had been deleted some years ago in a rather silly discussion.) The reason for using the département category is really just to make a categorical link with the département. If an article fits into some sub-category (e.g. Structures in Haut-Rhin) it's not necessary. The good work you are doing on categories ought to mean that this happens. Emeraude (talk) 07:43, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

It's part of the stub sorting proposal in Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. We ought to have struct-stub templates by department and at least 60 articles on chateaux, castles, churches, museums and theatres etc for each. Any help creating them and ordering them would be most welcome it'll take a long time to go through them myself!♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:01, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
