[edit] disneyland map

Why would Disney want to keep copyright on an old map? See Ya', tfullwood 15:54, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Because they're Disney: see Mickey Mouse Protection Act. More to the point, Disney's motivation doesn't matter. All that matters is whether or not they copyrighted it, and whether or not they renewed the copyright. As the uploader, it's your job to determine that the image was either never copyrighted, or that the copyright has expired. --Carnildo 20:00, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Dinosaur and the Missing Link: A Prehistoric Tragedy

Why did you undo my edit to this article? Did you not think that it improved it? It's customary on Wikipedia to add an edit summary to explain the edits that one makes. Smalljim 18:00, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I was thinking that, as more people come to the page, those smaller parts will improve and get bigger. See Ya', tfullwood 13:36, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
OK, that's fine in principle, but...
(1) Trivia sections are not cool on Wikipedia (see Wikipedia:Trivia sections), which is why I moved the information about Edison in your Trivia section into the main section.
(2) There's obviously no need for two separate sections ("Resources" and "External Links") both pointing to the same external references (YouTube, in this case).
I hope you agree that these are reasonable changes.
The only other small changes I made were (3) to add the approximate length of the film; (4) to remove the Animation category (one should always put articles in the most appropriate sub-category); and (5) to unlink the word flower - because linking to this does not materially add to the understanding of the article (see WP:OVERLINK).
I hope you agree that these are reasonable too. And just in case you're feeling any sense of ownership of this article, can I point you to what is written on each edit page:
"If you don't want your material to be edited mercilessly [...] by others, do not submit it."
Anyway, despite all the above, kudos to you for creating an article on an interesting old film that I wouldn't have otherwise come across!
Happy to discuss, but I'll reinstate my changes if you don't do so first, or provide any good reasons why I shouldn't, within a week.
Best wishes, Smalljim 19:16, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
As above, I've reverted back to my version. Do edit the article further (I think the Plot section could do with a bit of a rewrite, for instance), but please don't just undo this edit again, and don't forget to briefly explain your edits in the edit summary box. Cheers, Smalljim 17:11, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Tell that to the guy doing RCT3. No, seriosly.
