All humans are related. Is there anyway you can restate your remarks about Audrey & Katherine Hepburn so they are true? - Nunh-huh 00:11, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Audrey and Katherine Hepburn are 19th cousins once removed, by virtue of their common descent from Guillaume II de Avesnes & Jeanne de Valois, and 21st cousins by virtue of their common descent from King Edward I of England and Alianore de Castille. There are at lesat 341 other more distant relationships. -- Nunh-huh 09:01, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Johnnie Rivers at VFD

I turned theJohnnie Rivers into a redirect to Johnny Rivers. That's a quicker way to handle a misspelling than waiting all the days for a deletion vote to happen, and it keeps someone else from making the same mistake and creating the article again. If this is ok with you, drop a note at VFD. Joyous 23:33, Sep 20, 2004 (UTC)

Sesame Park

Sesame Park isn't on any cable television station in Canada, to the best of my knowledge. Are you thinking of Sesame Street, Sesame Street Unpaved, or Play with Me Sesame, the first and last still of which of course air? Or perhaps the internationally broadcast Open Sesame, which appeared on Treehouse TV in Canada a few years ago? So you know, I write a column on Family Entertainment, and I am one of the largest Sesame Universe buffs you've ever seen. -- user:zanimum

Bud Abbott Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein

I'm curious: why do you keep leaving the 'and' out of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein? --Paul A 04:22, 23 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Star Trek

Hello,

I just wanted to let you know that I've noticed your work on Star Trek related articles. You contributions are very good and have improved Wikipedia's material on Star Trek. Please keep up the good work.

Hey, I noticed that when I make Star Trek: Enterprise related articles, you come along and edit them. Well, I think that's just awesome. I hope you liked reading the articles I started on. I have a list of other Trek articles I have worked on in my user page. Feel free to go through them and correct any mistakes I might have made on them as well.

It's me again. I keep telling myself that I am going to create an article page for each of the episodes in the ENT episodes list article but I just havn't got around to doing it. By the way, what did you think of my user page (hopefully it wasn't messed up)?

KJen74 02:57, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Hey, it's me again. I'm rewinding my ENT tape from last night, and I am going to go thru the whole thing and create an article on it in a couple of minutes. By the way, do you know what website to get the pictures like the ones that are posted on the ENT related articles from?

Bond

I'm thinking the movie poster/infobox should be located at the top of the page and a new section that explains the plot of the novel or the differences between the novel and movie should be created where the picture of the book should be placed. Unfortunately, I've never read many of the James Bond novelizations/books including the Man with the Golden Gun. I've only read a few of the more recent novelizations, and Casino Royale. Reading more Fleming, is on my "to-do list". :) Also, since this has to do with Bond articles, what is your feeling on the List of James Bond vehicles article? (see talk page). K1Bond007 05:42, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)

Followup Sounds good. Out of curiosity, are you planning on putting the novel infobox on movies like Die Another Day (novelizations)? Either way. I was going to let you do this since I can't seem find a solid source about the years for paperback and hardback. Figured this was your area of expertise :) K1Bond007 19:33, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)

Looking really good. I finished up Moonraker and Dr. No. As far as movie/novel articles go (ones written by Ian Fleming), IMO it's a book first, a movie second, and possibly a novelization last. So I've been putting the novel sections at the top. Novelizations on the other hand (in the case of Moonraker) I left at the bottom of the article.

I added on to the film infobox seperating Writer from Screenwriter, but I'm torn with how to do Moonraker and The Spy Who Loved Me. Since these are technically original films should it even list Ian Fleming in the film infobox? Written by: Wood? I'm leaning towards no on Ian Fleming being mentioned (at least more so for The Spy Who Love Me) K1Bond007 22:38, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)

Do you know in what year, Glidrose Publications changed their name to Ian Fleming Publications? I know it was fairly recent, like late 90's maybe? I tagged Die Another Day and Silver Fin, the only ones I'm about 100% sure on as "Ian Fleming Publications". Regardless they go to the same article, but the year of the name change is missing and I can't find it anywhere. There was also another name change in there somewhere, but I'm not sure what it was -- ?? K1Bond007 03:02, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)

Re: Thanks. I've been slowly burning out :) I think honestly, the articles (the ones finished anyway) are looking pretty good with all the recent edits for the books, novelizations and film infoboxes, we've done. Hopefully, I can read a few Gardner and Benson novels to help you out, but considering I haven't read most of Fleming's yet, it doesn't seem likely :D I have plans to read SilverFin, but I'm already feeling that I won't like it. :( K1Bond007 04:20, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)
