[edit] Map for North Hollywood shootout

Sorry I took so long, but I was on vacation. Here's the map you asked for. I hope you like. If there is something you don't like about it, just tell me and I'll see what I can do.

Oh it's no problem. The map looks fantastic! Many thanks! Cliff smith 21:34, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Desperate Housewives

Inspired by the thaughts posted by you regarding Desperate Housewives, I've tried to improved the article during the last days. If and when you have some spare time, please feel free to add some comments. Cheers! Pjär80 21:16, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LMAO?

Are you referring to the moon shot edit-and-revert? I would have left it, but that wouldn't have been very cricket. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 17:07, 5 August 2007 (UTC)`

Yeah. I understand what you mean, but I just had to tell you what a kick I got out of that. Priceless. Cliff smith 17:10, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] North Hollywood Shootout

No. They don't. ColdFusion650 22:04, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok, now he's reverted four times in 24 hours after being warned. He's made personal attacks. And he keeps adding harmful uncited information. Do you want to notify an administrator, or do you want me to do it? ColdFusion650 11:17, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
He says he'll back off. So, we'll see. I won't press it as long as he stays good. ColdFusion650 23:00, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
Cold is a lot nicer than I would be - 3RR is a stupid mistake to make (I should know; I've been blockled for it myself while still learning how to learn to Love the Crazy™). If it isn't reported immediately, there's no way to act on it later. When the carrot of politeness fails, there is always the stick of blocking. Bad dog. Bad, bad bad!.
Anyway, I will read over the article and the Discussion, and comment on it by Saturday afternoon. Zany weather here in Chicago is keeping me pretty busy. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 08:47, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
It'd be really nice if you'd relenquish ownership of the article and let others add stuff. I really didn't realize that you were going around in the background lobbying people to take care of this. Since I can't research anything as I'm off in the sandbox fighting for your right to consipre, I'll back down on the 'return' issue, but Bob Kahn is the owner of the shop and it's relevant.--Asams10 09:34, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Halo 3 revamp

Would be glad to have you aboard (I got Halo 2 to FA essentially single-handedly, but it was a very long haul :). I suggest you take a look at Halo 2 to see what we are going to want to turn the article into. Of course, we will need some resources which probably won't be around until after the release, specifically the Halo.Bungie.Org level transcripts. I'm also going to have to actually get a 360 for the game too :). Basically, though, I'd like to kick off working on the article as soon as its released. When it goes down, I'll be glad for the assistance. :) 23:16, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] FLC for List of Degrassi: The Next Generation episodes

Hi, Cliff. I don't know if you're watching the page Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Degrassi: The Next Generation episodes, which you commented on, but I just responded and would like your input again if you could spare it. There's a couple of things there you mentioned which confused me a little. Thanks for taking the time out to comment in the first place, as well. -- Matthew Edwards | talk | Contribs 06:00, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Preity Zinta FA

Hi there. The Preity Zinta article has recently achieved A-class status. Due to the wealth of support I have decided to now nominate for an FA class article which I believe and judging by the comments of others is pretty much up to. In my view it is better than some existing FA actor articles. I would therefore be very grateful if you could give it a final review in your own time and leave your comments and views at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Preity Zinta. Thankyou, your comments are always valuable. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 10:57, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Featured List of the Day Experiment

There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 01:00, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your suppport. We welcome your involvement. Come by and nominate an article this month and get involved in the feedback on the candidates next month.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 01:39, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Peer reviews

Happy New Year, Cliff smith! Given your vast contributions to film pages, I thought I could solicit your assistance. I've submitted two articles for peer review, and thought that you might like to critique them:

  • Duck Soup. I've listed this article for peer review because, even though I and other editors have contributed much information and references, I'm certain that there are other aspects of this classic film that have yet to be covered. I'd like to hear feedback from you, so that I can get help in improving this (and other Marx Brothers films) quality.
  • Princess Leia Organa. I've listed this article for peer review because it right now seems oddly cluttered and, despite a lot of references as of now, lacks reliable source citations. Although I've already requested another peer review, as long as it helps the articles get better, I've got the time. Comments and suggestions are appreciated, as this should help me in expanding other Star Wars-centric articles.

If you have the time, it'd be great if you could look over those two articles and assess their flaws and weaknesses. Thanks, and, once again, a Happy New Year to you! — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 22:31, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm trying to get some more offline sources for the article. Concerning the "explanation of the film's title" section, I got that idea from the To Kill a Mockingbird article, which I think is a good example of a good article, and which I will often look to for ways of making this article improve. Unfortunately, by next week my busy schedule will be picking up again, what with the holiday season all but over, so I won't be able to respond quickly to feedback as I have for the week or two. I sincerely hope that won't hinder the improvement of the article, though. For a while, at least, you should expect my edits to focus almost solely on the two articles I've put up for peer review. Thank you for your comments. :) — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 18:03, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
Any editor who's editing for the good of Wikipedia's users is esteemed in my book. :)
By the way, any number of months back you expressed interest in learning if there were any parallels in The Bourne Ultimatum with the other two films in the franchise. I think you'll find your answer by clicking here. ;-) — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 21:33, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
