Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of administrative subdivisions of Southeast Asia by fertility rate
I expanded the scope of this AfD to include List of administrative subdivisions of Africa by fertility rate; you !voted before I did that and I just wanted to give you notice. Jytdog (talk) 19:23, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
Prehistoric films
Two things
- I have reverted the change you made to 'List of historical period drama films and series'. I have presented my arguments for inclusion of the prehistory section on the talk page. I decided to revert your change based on the long-standing presence of the prehistory section. I argue inclusion of the section with a possible preamble as explanation
- I noticed that you have removed many films from the 'Films set in prehistory' category. This seems to be based on a literal interpretation of the title of the category (though you have given no explanation for these removals), whilst ignoring the additional explanation given on the category page, namely 'Usually set in prehistoric times or depict a group of contemporary explorers coming across a "lost world" of primitive and/or prehistoric people who live anomalously from the civilized outside world.'. In other words, the previous editors had intended to include all films where some sort of representation of prehistoric life was made, even if it occurred from the narrative sense, in the current world (due to limitations in plot possibilities). If you disagree with this viewpoint of inclusion, you need to make it clear why, and make the appropriate changes on the category page, and allow other editors with an interest to make comment.Jameel the Saluki (talk) 07:11, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

- @Jameel the Saluki:
I see no argument for keeping prehistoric films on that talk page. All I see is a preexisting complaint that they don't belong in the list. It violates the criteria that they be "based upon historical events and famous people."Must have been really slow updating. I see it now and will continue the discussion there.

- I put it on the wrong talk page, sorry Jameel the Saluki (talk) 08:05, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
- User:Betty Logan has suggested differing between period dramas and historical dramas as a way of either splitting or culling the list based on categorisation by AllMovie (amongst other splits/culling). I would be happy with this as a suitable way of reducing the length of the list and removing pre-historic films from those aimed at covering historical events. How are you getting on with getting other opinions at the film project? Is there a way that we can come to a resolution on this? In the meantime I think that I will go through all of the movies and summarise each based on historical, period, fictional and myth content Jameel the Saluki (talk) 12:08, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Oops
I'm sorry about this glitchy edit. I don't know how that happened. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 14:56, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
Re Style of comments in the Edit Summaries
I was wondering if possible you could tone down the inflammatory style of the comments you put in the Edit Summaries. A recent case came to my notice where you removed the Category 'Lists of historical period drama films' from the article 'List of films based on the Bible'. Whilst I agree with your edit (due to the hierarchical nature of the category system), I thought the reason for doing it namely "absurd category" was unnecessarily inflammatory, The editor who put it there most likely did so for good reason, and probably could present an argument as to why they did it. Surely you'd have to agree that there are a great many people who believe that the Bible is historical fact. I do not think it's particularly helpful or fair that you have described their work or what they believe as absurd. It certainly got my back up (again), and I think that the Bible is mostly a work of fiction. Jameel the Saluki (talk) 12:37, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Comic strips, charges and cartoons (read below:)!
Hello, exist a problem in several articles and verbets of Wikipedia and Wiktionary in Portuguese, English and Spanish!
Was be saying that comic strip, charge and cartoon are synonymous, when, in really, are different things!
Below, the explanations of that are the comic strips, charges and cartoons:
- Comic strip: comics of short duration with the charts disposed and organized in form of a strip, how the proper name already implies. The comic strips may or may not be humoristic and contains strong critics for the social values. They also can be daily, published in smaller quantities, and, generally, in black and white (although that some are colored) or Sunday, published in big quantities, ever colored and occupying a space equipollent to, in at least, a whole page. The term comes from the American English, comic strip and means comics strip.
- Charge: humoristic comics of short duration and that contains strong critics of the people and things of the contemporaneity. The term comes from the Franco Belgian French, charger and means load or exagere.
- Cartoon: humoristic comics of short duration and that contains strong critics of the daily to daily situations. Because of the similarities between the first animation short films and the cartoons printed and published in newspapers, magazines and books from the epoch, the animated drawing also is called of cartoon (or, unabbreviated, animated cartoon), be or not humoristic. The term comes from the British English, cartoon and that of the Italian, cartone and means piece of big card, stub or study.
Here they here the articles for be revised in the respective idioms: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tira_de_banda_desenhada, http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/charge, https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartoon, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_strip, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editorial_cartoon, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartoon, https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tira_de_prensa, https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exageraci%C3%B3n_burlesca, https://pt.wiktionary.org/wiki/tira_cômica, https://pt.wiktionary.org/wiki/charge, https://pt.wiktionary.org/wiki/cartum, https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/comic_strip, https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/charge, https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cartoon, https://es.wiktionary.org/wiki/tira_cómica, https://es.wiktionary.org/wiki/charge and https://es.wiktionary.org/wiki/cartón!
Including and principally, the certain is that the Wikipedia articles (described soon above!) should receive the following names in each idiom: Tira de banda desenhada, Charge and Cartum (desenho humorístico) - in Portuguese, Comic strip, Charge (humoristic drawing) and Cartoon - in English and Tira de historieta, Charge (dibujo humorístico) and Cartón (dibujo humorístico) - in Spanish!
Remembering and highlighting that the caricature has nothing to do with the other three because isn't a form of comic: is, simply, a humoristic exaggerated drawing of something or someone, be real or not, does not even have texts!
And well, as you can see, the cartoon isn't a type of comic strip, neither the charge is a type of cartoon, if possible, please, warn to your fellow editors to make the changes, very thanks since now for all attention and interest and a hug!

Wings of Mercy
Hi C,, can you look over the Wikipedia article Wings_of_Mercy. I am interested in your observations, comments, critique, etc. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 18:35, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

Dab talk pages
Hi! When you make an edit like this, don't forget to update the talk page of the article. Cheers! — Gorthian (talk) 18:46, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
WP DAB banner
Hi, just letting you know that there's generally no need to create new talk pages containing only the {{WikiProject Disambiguation}} banner. There was a discussion about that a few months ago. Of course, you're welcome to put the banner on already existing talk pages and to create talk pages if they will contain something other than the WP DAB banner (like old rfd notices, a discussion, or banners for other projects). Thanks! – Uanfala (talk) 12:05, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
