[edit] Ghost in the Shell

Was just looking at an article on the Ghost in the Shell sequel, and i noticed a bassett hound on the movie poster. Being a fan of the original, I can tell you that this breed of dog makes a cameo appearance throughout the original animated film. Dessydes

Bassets are actually a hallmark of the director. --moof 02:46, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quality of Writing

"They are super cute and they're fun to snuggle with." Are you kidding me? This is an encyclopedia, not a children's book. GregChant 21:41, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Yuck, yes, that should not be there. Anyone can edit this encyclopedia, sadly that means changes like this will appear. if you see stuff like this feel free to take it out! Be Bold! - Trysha (talk) 22:56, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
It IS a true statement, however! :) A basset fan! --164.107.92.120 00:17, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
Yes, it is! :) --24.154.173.243 05:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kudos

Might sound weird, but I just felt like saying that this is one of the best articles I've read on WP in a while. I like how closely it adheres to the quality standards and seems like a good piece of collaborative writing. I see so many mediocre articles, this one is a treat. Congrats.

I also like the overall appearance of this article, but I do think that it is rather short on references and external links. Best, --24.154.173.243 05:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aristocratic Breed?

I removed this statement. I do not think that it has any practical meaning.--Counsel 21:53, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
