2024 Othello

[edit]

Nice pictures:[1] Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:01, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oooh, yeah, very nice. Almost Barry Lyndon-esque (such a pity Kubrick never did Shakespeare). Xover (talk) 05:53, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I managed to not see the modern clothing until I got to Nwosu with the BFG. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 06:54, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I thought Ola Ince deserved a WP-article. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:21, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. Nice work! Xover (talk) 05:53, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[2]. Nothing really new (except the novel by Jodi Picoult), but I thought it was a good read. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:13, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Gareth Roberts is a TV scriptwriter and novelist who has worked on Doctor Who and Coronation Street." And he debunks the nonsense with as much aplomb (and more verve) as Stanley Wells. Yes, very interesting read. Xover (talk) 15:21, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
She may not have been Shakespeare, but in this imagening she's quite a literary critic. I've seen more about Lanier as Shakespeare, there may be potential for a separate SAQ-article here. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:41, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination for deletion of Template:Spf

[edit]

Template:Spf has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 19:49, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for being so polite about this!

Do you also agree {{Spfref}} should be deleted? (I realize I asked you at the TFD, but it was already closed so you can't respond there :D) Best, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:39, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@HouseBlaster: Well, my half-finished, abandoned, and undocumented templates are obviously special snowflakes that should be placed under glass, on a pedestal, in a museum where the adoring masses can admire and meditate on their beauty and perfection at a safe distance. But since the project seems inexplicably short on the special expensive glass required for such display it is probably best to delete to keep the unwashed mitts of the filthy peons off them. :)
{{spfref}} was created at the same time for a paired purpose and the deletion rationale for {{spf}} applies equally to {{spfref}}, so I obviously support deleting it too. Feel free to drop a {{G7}} on it (because I'm too lazy to do it myself). Xover (talk) 07:42, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
