Combining Talk Discussions Re Disney Film Lists

Dear SpikeJones, Kasper2006, Elikrotupos, SWatsi, Blitz Lutte, NealP, LtPowers, SofaKing381222, Collectionian, Cartoon Boy, Casey14, Chris1219, NuclearWarfare, SkinnyPrude, and Parker 1297:

Recently, it appears that you all have been interested in the various Disney discussions regarding the proper categorization of Disney animated films. There has been recent activity regarding the proper structure of the various Disney feature length film lists. Unfortunately the discussions regarding the lists / pages are taken place on a number of talk pages. Before we get further into a long discussion regarding the various structural issues with regards to List of Disney theatrical animated features, Template:Disney theatrical animated features, Walt Disney Animated Classics, Category:Disney animated features canon, List of Disney feature films‎ and what ever other lists are out there, I would suggest that we somehow combine the discussions (both past and present) into one place. This will allow easy review on single page for users interested in this matter. It will also allow future users an easy access to whatever rational is used to support the structure of the various lists (including keeping or merging certain lists.). I believe that in placing this discussion in one central location, it alleviates repetitive discussion, allows issues are not constantly revisited in different locations and hopefully sets the future standard in updating the various lists with the verifiable sources. I honestly do not know if there is Wikipedia policy on this, nor do I know what the proper way of creating such a place. But I do believe it would useful.

I have posted this suggestion on the all the User’s talk pages above and apologize if I have missed any person who may be interested in this matter. If you know of a user interested in this matter, please invite any that person to discuss these issues. .If I have included you and you have no interest in this matter, I sincerely apologize and please delete this message.

Date styles

Regarding your recent edit to Category:United States Astronaut Hall of Fame inductees, please read Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers).

For the body of the article, May 4 2009 is more appropriate than 4 May 2009 as the article is a US-centric article.

Although the ISO-8601-like 2009-05-04 is not recommended in prose, it is acceptable in references. In fact, it's quite common in references across the project. May 4 2009 would also be acceptable. As the article is US-centric, 4 May 2009 is not recommended.

Non-wikilinked forms of these dates are also acceptable.

I have reverted your edit. If you wish to change dates to the style of May 4, 2009 or May 4 2009 I have no objections. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 01:27, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
