Hi zzuuzz, Thanks for looking over my contribution. I did look over all those suggested pages and I thought I had followed their suggestions. Was there something specific that you think I should change? I tried to make it as neutral as possible but still give a pretty good description on the technology, but I am open to suggested edits, brickbats, improvements, etc. Scottagross 22:43, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- {{helpme}} tags shouldn't be used to try and contact another user; somebody else is more likely to see this before the person you tried to leave a message for. You can leave a message on zzuuzz's talk page; he'll see that when he next visits Wikipedia. JDtalk 22:48, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Scottagross. The article looks very good. No doubt there are things that will be improved over time (such is the nature of the wiki), but to me it looks good and I can't think of much to add. I bet you someone will move the first pictures in the article (or resize them) according to the standard formatting you will find in other articles, but I actually find them really informative - a very clear example of what the article is about, right there. Some of the other images could perhaps be made smaller - I have no real opinion on that. You could now either the let the article mature on its own, or request some wider feedback at Wikipedia:Requests for feedback. There is also a WikiProject Filmmaking - you might want to check that out and perhaps ask for comments there (articles are always better when many people have worked on them). Otherwise, nice work! I hope you'll stick around and write some more. -- zzuuzz (talk) 23:00, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Scott Gross
A tag has been placed on Scott Gross, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.
