Work to be done

A lot more work needs to be done on the list of productions, using perhaps the Japanese wikipedia or JMDB website. Also there should be more about the company's history. Thanks for any contributions. JoshuSasori (talk) 01:23, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I added the book they published on their thirty-year anniversary. I don't have it myself, but it would be a valuable resource on the company's history. Michitaro (talk) 02:33, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
Thanks very much, for this and your other help.JoshuSasori (talk) 00:43, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Name with/without macron

I originally put the name with a macron due to the wikipedia convention, and because the company's website does not give a romanized form (except in a "mailto:" link). However, today I was looking at rental DVDs and noticed that all of Kaneto Shindo's DVDs say "Kindai Eiga Kyokai" with no macron (or the wapuro kyoukai found on the "mailto:" link at the company's website). This seems to be the official romanization of the name. If anyone disputes this, please mention it here and I will post some visual evidence. JoshuSasori (talk) 00:43, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

logo with sword and shield

On the old KEK videos, there is a logo of a sword-wielding woman with pointed breasts and a round shield. Does anyone know the story of this? JoshuSasori (talk) 14:11, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Requested move

The request to rename this article to Kindai Eiga Kyōkai has been carried out.
If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag.

Kindai Eiga Kyokai → Kindai Eiga Kyōkai – Article was originally created under the macron-spelling, but was moved shortly afterward under the rationale that DVD covers apparently give a non-macronned spelling. However, the company's official website states "Copyright © 2001-2012 KINDAI EIGA KYOUKAI All rights Reserved" spells their name with a u. Both of these spellings are apparently official, and are based on the Hepburn romanization system. Misplaced Pages policy is that when there is a lack of consistency in official sources, we should use the macronned spelling, which is the standard Hepburn spelling. elvenscout742 (talk) 16:29, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
