Updates for "History" at MPAA
Hey Erik, Thanks again for your help getting the "Film rating system" section of the MPAA article into place. I'm not sure if you've seen, but I've posted a proposal for a new version of the "History" section over at Talk:MPAA. I'm especially keen to get this section moved over into the article sooner rather than later, since the current "History" section has quite a bit of material plagiarized from the MPAA's website, which isn't good for Misplaced Pages nor the MPAA. I'm wondering if you might have time to look at what I've proposed and, if okay, move it over into the article? If you have feedback and it's minor, could I suggest moving the draft over into the article and then work on making adjustments, in order to get the plagiarism issues resolved? Thanks!

- Hi Erik, There's been some discussion about my proposed changes to the "History" section of the MPAA article over at Talk:MPAA. Betty Logan and Tbhotch each have a slightly different take, so a third opinion would be helpful. If you have time, do you think you might head over there to take a look and, if what I've proposed as a solution seems reasonable, move the section over into the article? Thanks!

Displaytitle
I killed it because it is using arcane syntax features which should be only used in templates, overriding the standard enforced by Infobox film, and was only implemented in the four articles of yours out of the entire Misplaced Pages, while it should be implemented either nowhere or everywhere for visual consistency (feel free to start a discussion about it, but personally I don't care). See also the recent discussion at WP:VPT.
Also, I'd say that the 'R' part of WP:BRD should really come after the 'D' part, especially we're talking about multiple articles... this is just an unnecessary disruption to make twelve changes instead of four. Matma Rex talk 11:20, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
- Matma Rex, disambiguation terms are used to organize topics that have the same article title. It is only an incidental design of the system that in a Misplaced Pages article, the disambiguation term is displayed on such equal grounds with the article title of the given topic. I think the displaytitle can be used to de-emphasize the disambiguation term. It does not have to be gray, it could just be smaller than the title itself. While it was not originally designed for such use, I do not think that should prevent attempts to reuse features in new ways. Text formatting and table coding have been used for new purposes in presenting information. A new approach has to start somewhere. Erik (talk | contribs) 01:42, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
Invitation to take a short survey about communication and efficiency of WikiProjects for my research
Hi Erik, I'm working on a project to study the running of WikiProject and possible performance measures for it. I learn from WikiProject Film talk page that you are an active member of the project. I would like to invite you to take a short survey for my study. If you are available to take our survey, could you please reply an email to me? I'm new to Misplaced Pages, I can't send too many emails to other editors due to anti-spam measure. Thank you very much for your time. Xiangju (talk) 16:57, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
Help for additional MPAA revisions
Hey Erik, Thanks again for your help on the MPAA article. I've just posted a rewrite that I'd like to propose regarding the "Anti-piracy efforts" and "Controversies and criticisms" sections over at Talk:MPAA. I took your previous advice about framing the controversial stuff in terms of the MPAA as a whole, so I'm especially keen to get your feedback on this. If you have a chance, could you take a look? Thanks! MPAA Kyle (talk) 16:12, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
