Talk:Steve Buscemi

Stabbing
I know that Buscemi was stabbed several times in April 2001 when he was involved in a bar fight. Vince Vaughn was present and was arrested. I was wondering if someone could put some information regarding this incident in the article? (The SmokingGun.com has Vaughn's mugshots from the night in question). MagicBez 17:00, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Yeah, I believe this was during the filming of the John Travolta vehicle Domestic Distrubance. He, Vaughn and the screenwriter, Scott Rosenberg, got into a bar fight with a local, Timothy Fogerty, at the Firebelly Lounge in Wilmington, North Carolina. Buscemi tried to break up the fight but ended up getting stabbed for his trouble. I think I remember hearing about it because Buscemi was supposedly stabbed in the head, throat, and arm. He now has a scar on his cheek that is covered up by makeup. --YoungFreud 14:19, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Buscemi Stabbed, Vaughn Jailed After Bar-Room Brawl Date: 14th April 2001

RESERVOIR DOGS (1992) star STEVE BUSCEMI is in hospital, and SWINGERS (1996) star VINCE VAUGHN in jail after a bar-room brawl at the FIREBELLY LOUNGE in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Buscemi had joined Vaughn and screenwriter SCOTT ROSENBERG at the bar during a break from filming JOHN TRAVOLTA's new movie DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE (2001).

Wilmington local TIMOTHY FOGERTY, 21, has been arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon after he allegedly stabbed Buscemi in the head, throat and arm in the early hours of yesterday morning (12APR01).

The FARGO (1996) star was taken to New Hanover Regional Hospital in critical condition and was later discharged and flown to New York.

Sources on the set of the movie claim, despite initial concerns, Buscemi's injuries were minor and the actor is expected back on the set on Monday (16APR01). Police say the fight broke out around 2.30 a.m local time, after Fogerty had made comments about wanting to "slice someone."

OFFICER CRYSTAL WILLIAMSON says, "From what witnesses say, he provoked the fight." Williamson says that when Buscemi, Vaughn and Rosenberg were leaving, the fight broke out. Vaughn, 31, and Rosenberg, whose credits include CON-AIR (1996) and the new SPIDER-MAN (2002) movie, were arrested and held on $600 (£400) bail. Both are due in court in June (01). (KL/WN/NFA)

The man accused of stabbing actor STEVE BUSCEMI made his first appearance in New Hanover County District Court, America, on Monday (16APR01) - charged with cutting the actor's head, throat and arm in a bar fight last week.

TIMOTHY WILLIAM FOGERTY, 21, appeared before JUDGE JOHN CARROLL who did not adjust the $50,000 (£33,000) bail bond which Fogerty paid on Friday (13APR01).

Fogerty waived his right to court-appointed counsel. He has hired Wilmington lawyer BILL PEREGOY to represent him on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, inflicting serious injury.

Actor VINCE VAUGHN, screenwriter SCOTT ROSENBERG, and KENNETH ROBERT PURGASON of Wilmington were charged with affray, a misdemeanour, in the incident. All are free on bail.

A warrant on Vaughn was issued Monday on a misdemeanour assault charge. The charge alleges Vaughn struck a man standing by, but not involved in the melee. (SVD/WN/RP)

Pronunciation
is his name pronounced BYU-SEMI or BYU-SKEMMY i say SEMI

I've heard BYU-SHEMI as well

Buscemi is Italian, so it's BU-SHEMI

How about the film "Ned and his Dead Mother." Not sure what the date is on that one.

Well.. A friend and I have this argument I say it's Buu-sem-ee She sayd Buu-shemi. I've read it's the way I say it.. but she wont accept that shes wrong.

Buscemi pronounced his name as boo-SEM-mee on The Simpsons. --(trogga) 23:27, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey, listen to that guy who said the thing about the simpsons. Its boo-sem-mee

Yep, you'd think the guy would know how to pronounce his own name... He said boo-SEM-mee on The Simpsons.

 * Yeah, I saw an interview where he said it's actually bu-semi but everybody says bu-shemi. So he seems to kind of accept that people call him bu-shemi, although it's not correct. I don't think I've ever heard anybody say anything other than bu-shemi, other than himself. 193.91.181.142 19:44, 13 July 2007 (UTC) (Nick)

Italian is a phonetic language with standard rules, so the only correct pronunciation is "Boo SHEH mee". That said, it's possible that decades of American mispronunciation have led his family to believe it's pronounced otherwise. 72.78.155.44 01:48, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Pronunciation seems worth mentioning in brief within the article itself. IPA experts? To lend some more non-textual support to the SEM side, the trivia track on Fargo notes SEM is his preference, telling stories of his wife being corrected when making hotel reservations for him. --24.61.14.0 (talk) 04:43, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Curious: Why was this information never added? I came to this page today specifically to find out this information and had to locate it in the "discussion" page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.139.144.66 (talk) 16:32, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Steve Buscemi pronounces his name "boo-SEM-ee" - pronounces it this way explicitly on a few of the Boardwalk Empire DVD commentaries. Challenger l (talk) 19:10, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

I saw that the clear English pronunciation had been changed to boo-SHEM-ee, so I changed it back. Then I realised the IPA had that SH symbol. After two different edits I realised that (in phonetic English) it had originally said "Buscemi (bu-SHEM-i/boo-SHEM-ee; bu-SEM-i in the actor's habit)". As I have pointed out in the final edit, this article is about the actor Steve Buscemi, whose name is pronounced bu-SEM-i. It is not about the correct Italian pronunciation of Buscemi. The recent edit wars about his fear of chipmunks came from a Tonight Show interview in which Jimmy Fallon managed to say Buscemi about six times, each time with the S pronunciation. Silas Maxfield (talk) 20:26, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

I found a video where he talks about the pronunciation. He says that he pronounces it boo-SEH-mee, but doesn't mind people saying boo-SHEH-mee because it's the Italian pronunciation. It would seem fair to put boo-SEH-mee as the primary pronunciation and maybe add another under "Italian:" and maybe something in the article about the pronunciation. 71.174.129.125 (talk) 09:07, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

Steve Buscemi Effect
I've removed this text, which was uncited:
 * Buscemi is also the inspiration for the "Steve Buscemi effect", a phenomenon where an actor who does not fit the traditional image of a hearthrob (see George Clooney) is nevertheless considered to be one because of percieved personality or acting talent.

because I can't find any references to it on the web. If you have a print reference, please feel free to add it with a citation. -- Mikeblas 16:54, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree. I think the first sentence says it best when it says "character actor". Calling someone a particularly beloved character actor needs sources, and naming an effect after him is bound to be NPOV or original research. -- Ianiceboy 05:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Pulp Fiction
I don't remember a role in Pulp Fiction...

He was the Buddy Holly waiter at Jack Rabbit Slim's. Pumpkingrrl 03:13, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh will have to watch out for that NHWork 04:51, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Unencyclopaedic
Come on... 'Buscemi's sexiest role is....'. What does one have to do to get such unencyclopaedic nonsense removed without morons reverting you because they think all IPs removing text must be vandals? 81.179.243.112 21:12, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Please read WP:ATTACK and WP:CIV. Beyond that, please read the article before you rant. That line has not been restored. The very valid line about the theater group he is associated with was restored. IrishGuy talk 21:20, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Have you any idea how frustrating it is to come up against some editor who uses 'popups' to revert everything you do no matter what it is? It would drive a saint to rude words, especially when that person doesn't bother to explain anything, just uses completely undescriptive edit summaries. It took me an amazing amount of effort to get you even to concede this one sentence. Now you're still restoring some utterly irrelevant information about how he cut his hand in 2001. Why? 81.179.243.112 21:33, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I support IrishGuy's decision to restore relevant points. Making personal attacks will not get you anywhere except from being blocked. --Tim1988 talk 21:52, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Why do you support it? I would have thought that continually re-inserting unencyclopaedic information would be the blockable offence - apparently not. Point by point:
 * (In Fargo, Buscemi is shot in the face with a revolver, later to be fed into a woodchipper). In each Coen movie he has appeared, his remains have been smaller than in the previous film. - first sentence is redundant with what has already been explained. The second is just mind-bogglingly ridiculous and patently unworthy of inclusion. Even if you could find a reference, it's a stupid, irrelevant fact that illustrates nothing at all about Steve Buscemi.

 * It does, however, illustrate a theme within his work with the Coens. IrishGuy talk 22:32, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Yes, the first part of the paragraph, that I left, does that. The second part is redundant as I say. Care to offer your opinion on the last part?

 * - why is this link in the text at all, with no explanation or context?

 * Then give it context. Why is your solution to everything just removing things? IrishGuy talk 22:32, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * How can I give it context? I've got no idea why it's there. There is no place in Wikipedia for a bare link like that so what's wrong with removing it? If you want to keep it, the onus is on you to make clear the reason for it being there.

 * In April 2001, while shooting the film Domestic Disturbance in Wilmington, North Carolina, Buscemi was cut while intervening into a bar fight between his friend Vince Vaughn, screenwriter Scott Rosenberg, and a local man, Timothy Fogerty, who allegedly instigated the brawl. - so what? Why is this one incident so important? I'm sure Steve Buscemi has cut himself lots of times. This fact is utterly unimportant. 81.179.243.112 22:28, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * This is not unimportant. He was stabbed during a bar fight. Vaughn was arrested and Buscemi was hospitalized. Injuries and legal run-ins are often added to biographies. IrishGuy talk 22:32, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * The article doesn't say the he was stabbed or hospitalised. Where are you getting that information from? Don't you think you should add it to the article, with a source, and don't you think, then, that this is not actually 'trivia'? 81.179.243.112 22:39, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Basic research is all it takes, . Deletion shouldn't be the first option. IrishGuy talk 22:41, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * So why did you simply revert? Why didn't you do the basic research and enhance the article? If you had, quite obviously I would not have been able to remove any unencyclopaedic material because you would have solved the problem. It really doesn't matter if I delete anything, it's all in the article history. However, what I hope is that removing unencyclopaedic content should encourage the creation of more encyclopaedic content. Instead it seems over-zealous hotheads like to use fancy revert tools to restore rubbish, because they can't be bothered to improve the content and just like to pick fights with anonymous editors, driven by the certainty that they, with their oh-so-descriptive username, must automatically prevail over someone who edits from an IP address. 81.179.243.112 22:49, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Enough with the personal attacks. You claim that what you are doing isn't against policy so I show you the policy. You do it again anyway. You claim that what you remove isn't true, so I show you more evidence. You do it again anyway. You get more rude and more abusive with each edit. IrishGuy talk 22:52, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

You haven't listened to anything I've said. You started by assuming I was a vandal, and I've become increasingly frustrated by your thick headed refusal to consider that you might not be right to keep on reverting. I've shown you the policy I am following - you've chosen to take it that the policy says 'never remove trivia', quite the opposite of what it says. You have conspicuously failed to discuss, you just keep on reverting again and again and again. 81.179.243.112 22:57, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I have discussed this with you on three user talk pages as well as this one. The policies have been laid out for you and yet you willfully ignore them on your deleting rampage. You are vandalising articles. Please stop. IrishGuy talk 23:00, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Comic Relief —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.216.160.226 (talk) 17:04, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

I don't think the statement that he provides "comic relief" in Adam Sandler movies is accurate. I don't think it's possible to have "comic relief" in a comedy, is it?

Yes it is. It's possible to have comic relief in a stand up comic routine. In Waterboy Steve buscemi broke up an uncomfortable "romance" scene between the two main characters. In Animal or w/e with rob schneider, he put a comic spin on an unbearably tense situation

Commercial Work K Krum (talk) 08:19, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

What is a good source for voice-actors: someone sounding a lot like Buscemi can be heard on a 2007 AT&T animated commercial as a Gingerbread Man who's son wants a cell phone.

Dead Man
I recently watched Dead Man for the first tIme. Doesn't Steve play the barman who sells Blake the "bottle"? He is hardly recognisable under the beard and doesn't say anything. No info on this from IMDB. TINY MARK  17:32, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Given up on God
Does anyone else feel that this phrase -- even though it's a semi-quote from the referenced article -- is somewhat un-NPOV? The only replacement I could think of is "non-religious" but that's quite possibly inaccurate. Yes/No/Suggestions? -- Shannonr (talk) 06:24, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Pronunciation, again
Buscemi himself mentions his name in the youtube interview with Henry Rollins, at, at 5:32 of 7:14. He pronounces it Boo-shemi rather than Boo-semi. (Rollins says Boo-semi at the beginning.) I guess we should go with Buscemi's version. :-) Jayen 466 01:00, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

 * It bears mentioning that Steve himself is far too used to this pronunciation from other people. My mistake. He actually admits mispronouncing it in the interview on Regis. Challenger l (talk) 12:08, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

On Twitter
Steve Buscemi is not on Twitter, is just a guy who has the domain and is playing to be Steve Buscemi. By the way, I feel sorry for the article, Buscemi deserves something better like the spanish wikipedia...--190.64.103.34 (talk) 23:25, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Model for the gollum in "Lord of the Rings"
Is it true that the gollum in "Lord of the Rings" was modeled after Steve Buscemi? Has anyone else heard this rumor? Shouldn't Buscemi get some kind of royalties?Sengui (talk) 03:51, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

NO.--190.64.109.8 (talk) 22:42, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Pronunciation, Yet Again
Per a 2007 NPR interview, Mr. Buscemi pronounces his name with an "s" sound, not an "sh". He's ok with other people using the popular pronunciation though.

Note that in the Rollins interview which Jayen provided, he is quoting what other people were saying about him when he pronounces it "Booshemi".

Nick Number (talk) 02:54, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Who cares how he pronounce it? The right pronunciation is with "SH" and that's it.--190.64.121.230 (talk) 17:57, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

So, so summarize, your contention is SH=it.

Nick Number (talk) 19:06, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

It's an ITALIAN surname. It's OK if you're an... if you ignore that, BUT do not try to spread wrong facts.--190.64.125.145 (talk) 18:06, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

I don't understand your second sentence. This article is not about the surname Buscemi in general, but about a specific person. The only pertinent fact is how that person pronounces it. If you have a citation showing that he pronounces it boo-SHEM-ee (when not quoting others) then please provide it. Nick Number (talk) 19:14, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

"The only pertinent fact is how that person pronounces it" No, it is not. The "pertinent" fact is the real fact, and the real fact is that he's italian descent and doesn't matter how he pronounce it or want to pronounce it, there is a right pronounciation of "Buscemi" and is only one, and Steve Buscemi himself knows it.

"If you have a citation showing that he pronounces it boo-SHEM-ee (when not quoting others) then please provide it." No. It's known that he pronounces in the wrong way. I don't need to provide nothing.--190.64.130.188 (talk) 02:45, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Please review the following page for some guidelines: Citing sources Nick Number (talk) 05:11, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

I've re-worded the pronunciation text to reduce ambiguity. Nick Number (talk) 00:24, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Remove Link to indieking.com
This website does seem to have information about Steve Buscemi but it is also loaded with banner ads and malicious seeming popups. I don't know if I should wait for a consensus or something but for now I think I will just remove the link and if someone wiser thinks it's important then they can put it back. I just wanted to leave a record of why I took it out. 70.143.91.23 (talk) 07:59, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Letter of appreciation...,
I am a big fan and I don't know if Mr. Buscemi reads posts at all, but I would like to tell him thank you for being someone we can relate to. Extremely talented in lots of areas, he is a "celebrity" even though he says it means nothing. It means, "A person who entertains and captivates you while not letting you take your eyes away from him." Allot of actors claim to be entertainers, but entertainers are not necessarily "celebrities." Yes, Mr. Buscemi, you are a "Celebrity," just not in general context. A true celebrity. Thank you for your contribution to films and for being more normal than your average actor. Eccentricity doesn't seem to be your forte. You are fabulous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.176.73.233 (talk) 17:26, 10 February 2015 (UTC) I'm so pleased to be able to say that I have a letter from a Mary Dorothy Buscemi, a second grader in my elementary school P.S. 115,in Brooklyn, NY, dated January 21, 1947. It was a letter of thanks for my help with her class. I was graduating and she congratulated me. I loved those children and have kept those letters from her class all these many years. I was 14 at the time. I'm now 81. I was wondering if Mary Dorothy was related to Mr. Buscemi. As fate would have it, after I msrried, I moved to Valley Stream, and raised 4 beloved children. My oldest, Susan, attended Valley Stream Central High School at the same time as Mr. Buscemi, having been born in 1959. After that I understand Mr. Buscemi was a fireman. Many members of the Stickevers family have worked in the NYC fire dept. And it was in Brooklyn that I first saw a relative of the Stickevers family, Jimmy Fallon.

Seinfeld Audition
On the Tonight Show August 7, 2015 Buscemi said he never auditioned for George Costanza on Seinfeld. It seems useless to have a section dedicated to something that is not factually correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.76.225.147 (talk) 03:33, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 15 October 2016
There should be a mention of Buscemi's role as an indie film maker in Living in Oblivion, 1995. That makes totally sense with his "character" as an indie actor... and filmmaker.

28 Days
I am a big fan of both Steve Buscemi and Julia Roberts. Why does their file, "28 Days" not show in their film roles? Thanks. Terrence Cook

Verification as Pirate Friday Club Founder
Under “Early life and education,” I noticed this puzzling paragraph:

“In his late teenage years, Steve often wrote short stories about pirates and often longed for a life on the seas. Through this obsession, Steve started the Pirate Friday club. This club met every 6 weeks to bring forward modern day pirating. This would be anti-violence and had a set amount of kind-hearted rules to adhere to. This club would also promote creative writing and craft-based workshops in schools around the globe [12].”

The link led to this page: https://mateysahoy.wixsite.com/pirate-friday-club

The website just uses a random promotional photo of Steve Buscemi and lists him as the founder/CEO and all of the other employees are just stock photos with generic names. Not to mention, the premise of the site itself is just weird (it promotes “pirate educational workshops” and charges you a small fee of $80 if you want to join?).

Is there any way to verify this? Other than the website itself (which leads right back to Buscemi’s Wikipedia). FlushingGirl1996 (talk) 16:35, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

History
TupiTube originated from the KToon initiative, led by two young Colombian entrepreneurs in 2002. KToon aimed to encourage young people in Latin America to pursue animation.

Entities such as Colciencias, the Sena, and others supported the initiative during its early development years. In 2010, the KToon development team regrouped and rebranded the project as Tupi 2D Magic. Later, Mae Floresta was configured as the developer.

Features
The software includes many features:
 * Support for basic tools for vector illustration that includes rectangles, ellipses, lines, and polygons. Paths can also be created using the pen or pencil tool. The paint bucket tool can be used to fill bounded areas of vector objects.
 * Raster images (sometimes called Bitmap) can be imported and used as either static backgrounds or animated assets.
 * Finished animations can be exported to various file formats that include: OGG, AVI, MPEG, SWF. They may also be exported as a sequence of images in PNG, JPEG, or SVG format.
 * Basic support for tweaking of positions, colors, rotation, scale, sheer, and opacity has been added to recent releases.

Impact
TupiTube has gained recognition as a valuable tool for artistic education, reaching 400,000 students and being adopted by over 3,000 schools in India. The software actively participates in educational and ICT events, promoting technological education.

File:Krag-Petersson fieldstripped.jpg

Krag–Petersson rifle field stripped, showing all part of the action. Reduced in size, cropped and letters added. Original available here (at least, it was on 18th August 2005).

The action of the Krag-Petersson is, as can be seen from the photograph, quite simple compared to modern rifles, consisting only of eight major components: the receiver (A), the hammer (B), the tilting breechblock (C), the firing pin (D), two pins to secure the hammer and breechblock (E and F), a lockplate with a screw to secure the pins (G) and the tubular magazine (not shown in the photograph).

Fair use for Krag–Petersson
The image Krag-Petersson_fieldstripped.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright I (WegianWarrior 06:20, 18 August 2005 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because: I, the uploader, also feels that the photo adds significant value to the article, as it makes it much easier to visualise the interior working of the Krag-Petersson, as well as the general workmanship of the manufacture of the Krag-Petersson.
 * 1) No public domain image of the disassembled action of the Krag-Petersson could be found or made.
 * 2) It is of significantly lower resuloution than the original image, as well as cropped to show just the feature discussed in the article.
 * 3) Only 975 of these rifles were manufactured in the first place, and production ended before 1880. Less than a handful exists today, and even less in an original state. Therefore it's impossible or near impossible to replace this image, since the uploader would need to own one that is in its original state to recreate the image.
 * 4) The photo is used for informative and educational purposes only.

Microsoft ScanDisk

Microsoft ScanDisk (also called ScanDisk) is a diagnostic utility program included in MS-DOS and Windows 9x. It checks and repairs file systems errors on a disk drive, while the system starts.

Overview
The program was first introduced in MS-DOS 6.2 and succeeded its simpler predecessor,. It included a more user-friendly interface than, more configuration options,  and the ability to detect and (if possible) recover from physical errors on the disk. This replaced and improved upon the limited ability offered by the MS-DOS  utility. Unlike, ScanDisk would also repair crosslinked files.

In Windows 95 onwards, ScanDisk also had a graphical user interface, although the text-based user interface continued to be available for use in single-tasking ("DOS") mode.

However, ScanDisk cannot check NTFS disk drives, and therefore it is unavailable for computers that may be running NT based (including Windows 2000, Windows XP, etc.) versions of Windows; for the purpose, a newer  is provided instead.

On Unix-like systems, there are tools like and   to do the same task.

Untitled
In the name of Hispanic pride and global penetration of an accessible sport that has brought cheer to millions, i strongly resent the cynical tone of this scathing piece against none other than an Olympic gold medallist. Ye arrogant author represent the vestiges of a shamefully racist society, and I am sorry to see this publication marred by your callousness.

I think this article presents all the facts accurately and the aforementioned claims are ridiculous.

Hispanic penetration has brought cheer to millions, i resent this scathing piece of gold. Ye vestiges, I see this publication.

Jizzaram.

LOL Can I know where is this article racist? Anyway he's white (Spanish dad and English mom). I don't know where this can be racist. Please explain.

Template talk:Deletion sorting

Important notes
This template should be used only with Subst:, as in

which gives

 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Argentina-related deletions.

Otherwise uses of this template could become targets of vandalism and/or vote-rigging.

Proposed layout change
The current layout renders deletion sorting notes similarly to the XfD !votes, which makes the page harder to understand semantically, visually and using a screen reader. I propose an alternative layout with greater separation from the !votes, using a colon to generate an indented list item without a bullet, and eliminating the text "Note: " before the note. This concept is context and language-independent. As the current layout does not appear to have been debated in the past, if there are no objections over the next seven days may I assume that this proposal is acceptable? A mock-up is shown below. - Pointillist (talk) 00:29, 1 March 2011 (UTC) Thanks for the feedback. The updated layout is below. - Pointillist (talk) 23:05, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

Greetings. A discussion related to this template has been opened at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion. Your thoughts are most welcome,   A rbitrarily 0    ( talk ) 13:49, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Remove "sig" parameter
The user placing this template doesn't participate in discussion; still his/her signature makes false impression of participation and confuses bots. I propose to replace   in the template with    to include only time of action. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 13:26, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
 * See the diff for implementation detail. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 14:08, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Oppose. It's clear that the signature is part of the delsort tagging, instead of creating a "false impression". Furthermore removing it would be a violation of the signture guideline, as the signature is required: "Any posts made to the user talk pages, article talk pages and any other discussion pages must be signed" - emphasis in the original. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:58, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
 * This is not a post. It's a template. Nobody signs spa or "this is not a poll" (don't remember the name) when places them in deletion discussion. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 10:05, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Proposed layout change 2
Hi, as mentioned above, the current layout as well gets a little mixed up in the !Votes. I think we should add lines to avoid that. I have come up with this source code. Its just a sample, we can change the colour combination. Kindly let me know what you think.

Source code:

— usernamekiran (talk)  14:38, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose 1) There is no mix up as far as I can see: there has never been any confusion that I'm aware of between an intentionally unobtrusive tag and a !vote 2) the editor imposed this change without consensus 3) he then appeared on my user talk page claiming that I did the change to the code that he very clearly did. This is disruptive editing. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:46, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose. The proposer apparently is addressing a discussion that was held six years ago and that reached a satisfactory conclusion back then.  I am not aware of any more-recent concerns.  Also, won't the proposed change create confusion with the borders already being used for re-listings?  NewYorkActuary (talk) 15:53, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Indeed, we'd have "discussion" pages that are cross-hatched with an absurd amount of horizontal lines, imo. And this editor's lines are even thicker. A deletion sorting tag is in smaller script because it's supposed to be minor, easily skipped over by the eye. This has the opposite effect. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:00, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I've also rolled back my recent Afd sorting edits where these lines appear. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:04, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Looking at the use cases, I don't believe delsort notices need any more prominence. In fact, they could be even less obtrusive than currently. I wouldn't even be opposed to not including them inline, though I understand there are discussion timeline issues with that. They can easily be 3+ at a time and the extra borders aren't necessary. I don't think there have been any serious complaints about readability due to these. There are tons of other templates, like canvassing, new user or SPA notices, along with new users formatting everything differently or bolding non-!votes and repeat ones. With many editors often holding extended discussion, this template is one of the least of the readability problems. The closing editors, who are really the ones who need to read it all, are likely very used to these and will have no trouble parsing it. Furthermore, this uses a custom "xfd_relist" style, so a user script could easily make them go away or be less prominent for those who wish. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 16:54, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

Hârtibaciu

The Hârtibaciu (German: Harbach; Hungarian: Hortobágy) is a river in the Transylvania historical region of Romania. It develops in the South Carpathians and flows into the Cibin, a tributary of the Olt, in Mohu, southeast of Sibiu. It flows through the towns and villages Bărcuț, Retiș, Brădeni, Netuș, Agnita, Benești, Alțâna, Nocrich, Hosman, Cornățel and Cașolț. Its length is 110 km and its basin size is 1025 km2.

King Géza II of Hungary settled the initial Transylvanian Saxon colonists along the Hârtibaciu, referred to by them as the Harbach. The Saxons established many towns along the river such as Agnita with Kirchenburgen, or fortified churches.

Tributaries
The following rivers are tributaries to the river Hârtibaciu (from source to mouth):

 * Left: Valea Morii, Albac, Androchiel, Marpod, Fofeldea, Ghijasa
 * Right: Sărătura, Halmer, Valea Comunală, Valea Satului, Valea Înfundăturii, Valea Stricată, Coveș, Bârghiș, Zlagna, Hârța, Vurpăr, Țichindeal, Lacul Roșia, Zăvoi, Daia, Cașolț

Talk:Soccer in Tasmania

Requested move
The sport football (soccer) is called "soccer" in Tasmania.
 * Add *Support or *Oppose followed by an optional one sentence explanation, then sign your vote with ~

 * Support. This is the common name for this sport in Tasmania. – AxSkov ( ☏ ) 06:29, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose Official name of the game is Football in Australia (Football Federation Australia et al), and Football (soccer) is a perfectly reasonable compromise. Cursive 12:39, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Football may be the "official" name (as of a few months ago!), but the most widely used term seems to still be soccer, and we also have Soccer in Australia. Support move for consistency. sjorford →•← 12:45, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Oppose. This game is now called "football" in Australia. Clair de Lune 06:37, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
 * "is now called" by the governing body: yes. "is now called" by most Australians: no. Beware of absolute statements. sjorford (?!) 15:57, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Support. Use the common name in Tasmania. Jonathunder 01:35, 2005 August 23 (UTC)
 * Support. Wikipedia should follow not lead. If the most commonly used name is soccer then that is what it should be called. If someday the "official" name becomes the most common name then we should change it, but not until. Of course there should be a redirect from "Football in Tasmania". Paul August ☎ 21:21, August 24, 2005 (UTC)

This article has been renamed after the result of a move request. Dragons flight 21:52, August 24, 2005 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Add any additional comments

Why is this called "Football (soccer) in Tasmania", when the sport is called "soccer" in Tasmania. Is Daveb trying to impose his views on what this sport should be called in Tasmania, and perhaps the rest of the country? – AxSkov ( ☏ ) 06:29, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

"Football" is mostly a Sydney-centric name for soccer. Football in all other regions usually always means either Aussie Rules (in Vic, Tas, SA, WA & NT) or Rugby (in rural NSW & Qld), so as to distinguish this code from the others it is called soccer. I'm also concerned that calling soccer "football" will give the wrong impression to non-Australians that the common name for soccer is football, which it isn't. – AxSkov ( ☏ ) 07:07, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

This page should not have been moved! 3:2 does not by any stretch of the imagination make a consensus, and I am adding my name to the oppose list making it an even 3:3. Jooler 21:58, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I agree the page should not have been moved. The reality is that the sport goes by a number of names. The naming issue for the sport has been discussed at length in Football (soccer) and other articles and the compromised used for that title used for many related articles. For consistency the dual naming should have been used. Add me to the list of those that oppose the change. --Daveb 02:34, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

 * This article is consistent with other articles, and with established policy. The main football (soccer) article is titled the way it is because it covers the sport across the whole world. This article only covers the sport in one area, where the term "soccer" is almost universal. Most regional football pages just say "football" in the title, such as Football in England, Football in Italy, Football in India..., with the exceptions being those English-speaking countries that primarily call the game "soccer": Soccer in the United States, Soccer in Canada, and Soccer in Australia. Only global football pages generally have "football (soccer)" in the title. Go to http://www.wikiwax.com and compare the results for "football (soccer)", "soccer" and "football". sjorford (?!) 18:31, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Other issues (other than soccer/football debate)
The list of silverware won is up for debate. I'm not really into whoever put the Southern u19 titles there because I think it really should just be senior titles and not for reserve teams either. Southern division one is a bit of a tricky one because it involves both reserve teams and independent clubs.

I'll leave the u19 titles in there for now. TinTin

List of clubs
Where should we draw the line as to which clubs are included? -- Chuq 11:33, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * In regards to having their own articles, I think it should be limited to the NPL and SPL clubs only.
 * In regards to being listed on the page, maybe a list for each of the next 2 divisions?
 * In any case, I don't think teams like Barnstoneworth United need to be listed, nor the northern junior teams.
 * How do we handle teams which have been relegated from the NPL or SPL?

The Northern Junior teams should be removed as they have no relevence to the top tier of football in Tasmania. Teams like Barnstoneworth and Huon Valley play in the Second Division and are eligible for promotion to The Southern premier League so articles should be made on them. Boltonfan22 12:26, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree with the above. Division one and lower clubs are eligible for promotion to the premier leagues, and also participate in the state-wide knockout cup with the npl and spl, so their inclusion is important. Junior clubs perhaps should be listed but certainly don't require separate club pages.

--TInTIn 05:48, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Stray history article
The article Tasmania national football team has been created previously but there is no reference here. Without references or citations the context and relevance is unknown - can anyone shed light on this? Tomperc 02:33, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks like a load of crap to me! Proposed for deletion. -- Chuq 04:53, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * What the hell is this article. Deletion immediatly. Boltonfan22 08:32, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This is absolutely no crap and no hoax!! The matches were played against Tahiti (01 May 1985) as well as against Australia (10 October 1984). I will move the article to Tasmania official football team. Like with Frøyan official football team. And I will add references. Please also see: Talk:List of men's national football (soccer) teams. That you here, interested in Soccer in Australia and maybe even living in Australia, don't know about the matches, together with the above question, shows to me that this encyclopaedia imperatively needs an article about the Tasmania official football team of course with references and external links!--Rheinländer 15:36, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Well you learn something new every day don't you. Never thought they were real and as i was -7 years old when these matches were played so i never heard of these matches taking place. Tasmania will probably never play another "Internationl" match again so is this article really necessary. Can't we just add this information in a section on the Football (soccer) in Tasmania page? Boltonfan22 00:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weird :) I'm glad I just added the prod tag, I was tempted to delete immediately!  My immediate thoughts were "oh great, another person who thinks Tasmania is a separate country", but it appears these were national team v club or national team v state all-stars team games.  I don't know how "offical" this team is.  The Roon-ba site appears to be confused as it lists the game as an international game! -- Chuq 00:32, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Clarification
As maintainer of the Roon Ba site, I must say that there is no claim to the validity of Tasmania as a 'national' team, and no such claims are made. Tasmania is treated as a 'non-FIFA' territory/entity, as it is of course an integral part of Australia. There are other similar cases on the site - Shetland and Western Isles in Scotland, for example. However, these territories do have a certain degree of autonomy/government, and it is quite conceivable that a Tasmania select team would be able to play the Australian national team, as it is unlikely that any of the Tasmanian players would have made the selection for the full Australian team. Just to reiterate, none of the results on the website are meant in any way to indicate, imply or give credence to nationalistic claims by any of the teams or representative sides listed. They are present merely to serve the purposes of statistical completeness and of course, to satisfy that most universal of all instincts - curiosity.

External link
I'd like to add http://soccertas.blogspot.com/ to the external links. I am not involved in the operation or running of this site at all, but it isn't a hugely popular site. It *is* however the only site about the sport in Tassie which allows reader feedback (ie. blog or forum). Agree/disagree? -- Chuq 01:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Category
I've created a new category, Category:Tasmanian football (soccer) clubs - if you'd like to help move some existing clubs into this category (and at the same time remove them from any redundant cats, such as Category:Australian football (soccer) clubs, Category:Sporting clubs in Tasmania, and Category:Football (soccer) in Tasmania), please do so! -- Chuq (talk) 03:21, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Significant trophies
I would like to create two sub-headings one 'mens' the second 'womens'. The Mens sub-scetion would be the same as current with a womens section having the same information for womens (not currently in the article). Any help with this much appreciated. TinTin (talk) 04:18, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

2013 Structure
Good article FFT here outlining structure of FFT Leagues in 2013. Obviously a few Wiki Artilces will need to be updated to reflect this. --TinTin (talk) 06:56, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Move discussion in progress
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Association football in Victoria which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 13:15, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

2015 Changes
In 2015 the SPL and NPL have new names and logos: http://www.footballfedtas.com.au/index.php?id=15&tx_ttnews[year]=2014&tx_ttnews[month]=12&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=1139&cHash=3d58105472b4c354e4efbf3debfbd69e At some stage various articles need to be updated to reflect this. The SPL will also have some new clubs on board. I'll try and update some articles but feel free to help.--TinTin (talk) 00:52, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I just noticed this as well! I'll add it to my to-do list. -- Chuq (talk) 02:09, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Argh! I think we just tried to do the same moves at the same time. Southern Championship was just a redirect, so I moved it over the top of it. I expected both Northern Championship and Southern Championship to require disambiguation, but it seems not! -- Chuq (talk) 02:23, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah I saw that double move of ours. Ha ha. Yeah I was surprised that the names are unique in Wiki too.  I put a disambiguation link at the top of the Southern Championship to article Southern Championship previously redirected to: Southern Conference Championship, so hopefully that will keep everyone happy.  Also the update of the logos was needed not just to pretty it up, but I think the use of the FFT logo, in articles that aren't the main FFT article is legitimate under fair use?--TinTin (talk) 01:03, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Rapid Legacy
A quick history question. I've read a few Tasmanian Football histories which denote the great success of the club Rapid, however reading two articles on wiki: both Southern FC and Kingborough Lions United FC claim to be entities merged from Rapid. Which is correct? --TinTin (talk) 04:51, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Night Court

Super Bowl Sunday
Is this right? I used to watch this show every chance I got (even when it was in syndication on 3 different channels in my area), and I just watched most of the TV Land marathon this weekend, and I only remember him saying it was Sunday and he was home. --Tcsetattr 06:29, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
 * It's mentioned on the "trivia" page on IMDB; where the submitter got it, I don't know. -DynSkeet (talk) 11:48, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

Phil
This page really needs some mention of Phil and the subsequent Phil Foundation story arch. Unfortunately I lack the memory or access to cable that would allow me to add it (I don't even know the actor's name). Someone? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.94.80.118 (talk) 16:56, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
 * From IMDb, Phil Sanders (along with Will) was played by William Utay. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 07:35, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Night Court in Vegas
I've stumbled across a few references online to a failed pilot called "Night Court in Vegas" with Joey Travolta. Google gives me a whopping two hits on the title of little help other than to confirm that this pilot existed. Was this a "Night Court" spinoff? When was it produced and did it ever air anywhere? This would be a major new section for this article. - Dravecky (talk) 08:43, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

It was never aired. It was Night Court's early pilot draft, and was rejected because of it's budget. It was adapted as an episode during the fifth season, but never aired. Joey Travolta's role was recast. The episode was later edited, and footage was used in the final season (don't know the episode, sorry). That's all I could find out. Any help? I can't find a plot anywhere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.202.127 (talk) 11:36, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Contradiction
The List of Night Court episodes article, in season 9, says that Harry Anderson doesn't appear in one episode. This article states that he was in them all. — Timneu22 ·   talk 15:35, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Laugh track, live filming
I've just watched a couple episodes, and it appears that the laughter is real time. (E.g., the studio audience laughs and a couple people go "aaaaah" at a sentimental moment just afterward.) Given that, and the acoustics, I suspect the show was videotaped in front of a live audience -- one that might not even be prompted by cue cards. Anyone have a cited reference on this? 98.210.160.166 (talk) 13:43, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
 * It was live because there is a specific "laugh" that belonged to a man that can be heard at the very end of the credits; and subsequently during each of the episodes. I forget his connection to the production, but it was significant and meaningful. I hope someone can find a reference to include here. Maineartists (talk) 00:23, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Jenna Maroney?
How is it that a fake character created in 2006 appeared on a TV series in the '90s? If someone feels it is really that necessary to mention the sketch on 30 Rock perhaps mention it in a different section, since she was obviously not a "Supporting Player." →ClarkCTTalk @ 18:14, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

Production - L.A. or NYC?
I came the to article seeking an answer as to whether the show was shot in New York City or the Los Angeles area. Could use a Production section if anyone comes across the answer someday. 5Q5 (talk) 14:05, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

Error in the Awards Section
John Larroquette won the Outstanding Supporting Actor Emmy 4 times in a row (1985-1988), but one of his wins is missing from the table of Primetime Emmy nominations and wins. (It's listed as neither a nomination nor a win.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 214.18.179.196 (talk) 12:16, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

John Astin irregularity
In the "supporting characters" section it's stated that John Astin played Buddy Ryan from season 3 onward. The Buddy Ryan character was only introduced in season 4, although John Astin did play a one-off character in season 3. It seems like this could be made clearer somehow. 97.126.61.147 (talk) 06:47, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Time slot(s)?
I found myself surprised that no mention of the time slot(s) the show ran in is made (that I could find). I was curious, and still am! Huw Powell (talk) 11:08, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

C.R.A.Z.Y.

C.R.A.Z.Y. is a 2005 Canadian coming-of-age drama film directed by Jean-Marc Vallée and co-written by Vallée and François Boulay. It tells the story of Zac, a young gay man dealing with homophobia while growing up with four brothers and his father in Quebec during the 1960s and 1970s. The film employs an extensive soundtrack, featuring artists such as David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Patsy Cline, Charles Aznavour, and The Rolling Stones.

A popular piece in the Cinema of Quebec, C.R.A.Z.Y. was one of the highest-grossing films of the year in the province. The film won numerous honours, among them 11 Genie Awards, including Best Motion Picture. At Quebec's Prix Jutra film awards, it won 13 awards in the competitive categories from 14 nominations, becoming the all-time record holder for most award wins at that ceremony; it also won both of the box-office based awards, the Billet d'or and the Film s'étant le plus illustré à l'extérieur du Québec, for a total of 15 awards overall.

C.R.A.Z.Y was submitted for consideration for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but was not nominated.

In 2015, Toronto International Film Festival critics ranked it among the Top 10 Canadian Films of All Time.

Plot
Born on Christmas in 1960, Zac is one of four and later five brothers: bookish Christian, rebellious Raymond, sporty, flatulent Antoine and then Yvan. He has a special relationship with his father Gervais, but things began to fall apart as Zac's non-masculine ways start to show. Their unique relationship officially ends when Gervais comes home to find Zac dressed in his mother's clothes. Ever since then, he "had unwittingly declared war on his father".

At the Christmas party in 1975, Zac shotguns a joint with his cousin Brigitte's boyfriend Paul, which sparks Zac's attraction. His friend Michelle tries to kiss him, but Zac stops her with the excuse of protecting their friendship. Later on, he discovers that Brigitte is no longer with Paul. In a moment of spontaneity, Zac runs a red light on his motorcycle, only to be struck by a car and hospitalized. Zac later learns that Brigitte is back with Paul.

Zac begins a relationship with Michelle, temporarily relieving Gervais—until he sees Zac stepping out of the car with a male classmate, adjusting his crotch. Angry, Gervais has Zac see a therapist to "cure" him of his "homosexuality". The therapist's conclusion is that Zac made "a subconscious deliberate mistake", intentionally doing it so that Gervais would catch him and find out he was "gay".

At the Christmas dinner in 1980, Zac and Michelle's relationship has become closer and more physical. His brother Christian announces his engagement. At Christian's wedding reception, Zac and Paul shotgun a joint outside, but are seen by a guest who thought they were kissing. Gervais overhears this gossip, and chaos ensues. Gervais confronts Zac in the pouring rain, and Zac admittedly comes out, yelling that while he was not kissing Paul, he wished he had been. A sobbing, eavesdropping Michelle runs out of hiding, and Gervais tells Zac to leave. Zac flies to Jerusalem. Disgusted with himself after a gay sexual escapade, he walks into the desert and collapses in exhaustion. A Bedouin, who finds Zac, drips water on Zac's face and takes Zac into his care.

Zac returns home to find his second eldest brother hospitalized after a heroin overdose; he dies the next day. After the funeral, Gervais hugs Zac emotionally. Ten years after his brother's death, Zac narrates that Gervais "had become my father once more", even to the point of allowing his lover into his house.

Development
Director Jean-Marc Vallée conceived of the film when he and his wife met François Boulay while staying in a cottage in the Eastern Townships, Quebec. Boulay told them about his childhood and four brothers, with memories Vallée found sometimes amusing and sometimes concerning. At Vallée's urging, Boulay later mailed Vallée a screenplay draft called Random Souvenirs of my Life based on his childhood, totaling 100 pages. Vallée added elements about the mother character and began shaping a song list. After seeing Good Will Hunting (1997), Vallée considered setting the film in Boston, but actor Michel Côté read the screenplay and persuaded Vallée that it was a fundamentally Quebec story.

Vallée and Boulay worked on the screenplay for five years, finishing by November 2000. The projected budget of $8.9 million had to be reduced to $7.3 million before some sponsorship from Telefilm Canada could be secured.

Filming
Shooting began in April 2004, but when the project ran out of money, filming temporarily ceased in the summer. Michel Côté made a personal donation to restart the project.

Sets were generally inexpensive, though the film did require a large portion of the budget for special effects. Art director Patrice Vermette made many decorations for the sets accurate for the periods. In addition to being set in Montreal, Montreal was used as a filming location. The scenes set in Jerusalem were filmed in Essaouira, Morocco, with the sand located one kilometre from the city being employed for desert shots.

Music
Nearly 10% of the budget was spent on acquiring song rights for the soundtrack, with the cost being $600,000. Producers spent two and a half years obtaining the rights for all of them, and Vallée surrendered his salary to help pay for them. Period music is an important element of the film, highlighting characters and recurrent themes and events in Zac's coming of age. The soundtrack includes songs by Pink Floyd ("Shine On You Crazy Diamond," "The Great Gig in the Sky"), The Rolling Stones ("Sympathy for the Devil"), David Bowie ("Space Oddity"), Jefferson Airplane ("White Rabbit"), The Cure ("10:15 Saturday Night"), Giorgio Moroder ("From Here to Eternity"), Elvis Presley ("Santa Claus Is Back in Town"), and many others. "Sympathy for the Devil" alone cost $138,000, as it is used for two minutes, 25 seconds.

The Charles Aznavour song "Emmenez-moi" is repeated over and over in the film, often sung by the father. He also sings another Aznavour song—"Hier Encore", as part of Zac's 20th birthday celebrations. The title derives from the first letter in the names of the five brothers: Christian, Raymond, Antoine, Zachary and Yvan, and also refers to their father's abiding love of Patsy Cline's song "Crazy", which itself is used as a recurring motif in the film.

Release
C.R.A.Z.Y. was rejected for competition in the 2005 Cannes Film Festival in April. It opened on 75 screens in Quebec on 27 May 2005. The film screened at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2005. and the Marrakech International Film Festival in Morocco in November 2005. It played in Toronto theatres in October, and opened in Vancouver on 25 November.

By the film's screening at the AFI Fest in November 2005, distribution was sold to 40 countries. The film never had a general theatrical release in the United States, aside from film festivals. U.S. distribution rights issues were posed by the film's use of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" by Pink Floyd.

C.R.A.Z.Y. was initially released on DVD in Quebec in October 2005, followed by TVA Films' English-language Canadian DVD in April 2006. When Vallée learned the special features on the latter did not have English subtitles, he and TVA Films planned a corrected two-disc English DVD for November.

In the wake of Vallée's death in December 2021, the film received a special tribute broadcast on the TVA network on December 29. It was also added to Quebecor's streaming platform QUB in 2021, and reentered the Canadian box office charts in the winter of 2022.

In June 2022, the film received its first significant release in the United States from Samuel Goldwyn Films, playing selected LGBTQ film festivals before going into wider commercial release. The film is received a memorial screening at the 80th Venice International Film Festival in September 2023.

Box office
In its first two weeks, C.R.A.Z.Y. grossed $2 million in Quebec alone. After seven weeks, the provincial gross reached C$3.6 million. By October 2005, the film made nearly $6 million in Quebec theatres, placing second in the summer season provincial box office to Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. By March 2006, the film made over $6.2 million in Canadian theatres. By that time, the gross outside of Quebec was $3,692,417.

The film finished its run grossing $6.2 million in Quebec alone. It was the third highest-grossing film in Quebec in 2005, following Revenge of the Sith and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Critical reception
C.R.A.Z.Y. has a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 31 reviews, with a weighted average of 8.1/10. The website's critics consensus reads, "Balancing heart and humor against outstanding work from a talented cast, C.R.A.Z.Y. proves the coming-of-age formula can still produce powerful results." Metacritic assigned the film a weighted average score of 81 out of 100, based on 5 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".

In Canada, Susan Walker of The Toronto Star assessed the film as "moving, funny, truthful". Martin Bilodeau praised the film in Le Devoir for its ambition and magic. In Exclaim!, Allan Tong praised it as "a funny, infectious ride through Quebecois pop culture of the '60s and '70s", and honest with vitality.

Liz Beardsworth from Empire positively reviewed the film for its acting, citing Marc-Andre Grondin and Michel Coté, and wit. Jay Weissberg from Variety declared it a "bouncy coming-of-age tale" with great music and capable performances from Cote and Grondin. Entertainment Weekly gave the film a C+, with Jeff Labrecque writing it lacked character development. Writing for BBC, Jamie Woolley remarked on the stylistic photography, found a few scenes overlong but concluded the film added up to more than the value of each scene combined.

In December 2005, it was named to the Toronto International Film Festival's annual Canada's Top Ten list of the year's best films.

In 2015, the Toronto International Film Festival placed C.R.A.Z.Y. eighth in the Top 10 Canadian Films of All Time.

Accolades
The film was submitted for consideration for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but was not nominated.

Talk:Republican Party of Armenia

Conservative
The Republiacan Armenians are a conservative not liberal. They are nationalist and cristian party.

Opinion sentense
What do you think about this sentense: "Political wise the strongest party in the country are the republicans." I think it gives authors opinion about the party and should be removed from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thorbins (talk • contribs) 16:20, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

On "Tseghakron" being a fascist ideology
I maintain that the "Tseghakron" ideology, which is the Republican Party of Armenia's official ideology, is the Armenian form of fascism developed by Garegin Njdeh in the 1930s, corresponding to the rise in fascism in other parts of the world, including Germany, Italy, and Spain. A simple skim through the works of Njdeh is enough to substantiate this.Serouj (talk) 08:26, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is not a place for expressing your personal points of view. -Սահակ/Sahak (talk) 13:27, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * This is not my personal point of view. I'll include a source as soon as I find one (there are very few to non academic papers that have written about "Tseghakron" since it had such a marginal following).  It's interesting, though, that you're getting personal instead of replying to the issue at hand.Serouj (talk) 17:54, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

HHK's slogan
HHK's slogan "Let's rely on our minds and our arms." was used during 2003 parliamentary elections. In 2007 parliamentary elections the slogan was changed to "For you, Armenia." -Սահակ/Sahak (talk) 23:59, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Great. Why not keep them both in the article? Serouj (talk) 02:24, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

HHK ideology
The official HHK ideology is "tseghakron" according to Eurasianet's page on the political party. Also, on the HHK's Library page, Njteh is the single most cited author and appears as the first entry. So there is no doubts as to HHK's ideology being developed around Njdeh's tseghakron.Serouj (talk) 02:27, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Here is the source directly from the HHK's website that confirms this:
 * Serouj (talk) 02:31, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The above quote states that the theory of Garegin Nzhdeh has a substantial place in their ideology. However the first sentence of the reference that you quoted above is "The RPA is a national conservative party." In conclusion, RPA's ideology is "National conservative" and Geregin Nzhdeh's theory has a substantial role in it. Since that would be a very long sentence for the infobox. I suggest that you put the information about Garegin Nzhdeh and his theory of tseghakron, in the main text. Infobox area is reserved for a short description from a List of political ideologies. -Սահակ/Sahak (talk) 02:50, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Good suggestion.Serouj (talk) 03:00, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Good suggestion.Serouj (talk) 03:00, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

On Eurasia.net, Populus and party popularity.
a. Eurasianet is hardly a reliable source on Armenia, since they do not even provide any base for their statements. b. British Populus polling center has been accused by many in biased approach in all parts of the world, including England. c. This section of the article is very one-sided, since it does not provide references to many other polls that had completely different results. d. This is simply a copy-paste from Eurasianet website, which introduces personal subjective perspective of the author of the article, rather than a solid source that should be represented in a cyclopedia.

Suggestions:

Either remove this section all together or add other sources that show other side of the issue. Personal opinions based on articles from eurasianet should not be presented as factual matters; this is misleading. Nzurabyan (talk) 16:44, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. Eurasianet has consistently provided accurate articles throughout the election campaign in Armenia.  Your opinion on British Populus won't stop from their survey being listed here.  (BTW, their "31 percent" of voters supporting HHk is on the HIGH side, so I don't know why you are complaining!)
 * If you have better sources, then why not help Wikipedia out by doing some work instead of making suggestions to others?Serouj (talk) 18:37, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

"I don't think so. " - Well, this is not a matter of what you think, but rather what the facts are and what concrete evidence you can bring to support it. This is a matter of presenting concrete facts in a way that they are not misleading. Instead, you are using wiki space to promote your personal opinions and believes, which may or may not be accurate.

"Eurasianet has consistently provided accurate articles throughout the election campaign in Armenia."

1. Eurasianet is simply not the best expert in the field of local Armenian politics. This is like asking expert opinion on Molecular Physics from an Orthopedist (both are respected professions that require education and knowledge, yet an expert on one is not necessarily going to know the other).
 * That is your opinion on Eurasianet. As far as I'm concerned, it's an independent third-party news source not affiliated with any political party in Armenia. Serouj (talk) 19:38, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

2. Eurasianet did not provide any source of the poll numbers they received. Furthermore, no third party has confirmed that their polling was conducted accurately. This does not mean that they are necessarily inaccurate, but considering the controversy and conflicting results from other polls, it seems counterproductive and disbalanced that you would reference only one source, without any evidence, other than your own claim that they are accurate.
 * Eurasianet is the source of the poll numbers. Since they're a reliable news source, we are citing them.  We've included the Populus poll, whose numbers are almost double.  There are always a certain amount of errors in random polling; this is well-known and not unusual.  Serouj (talk) 19:39, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

3. It seems like the you consider accurate only those sources, that correspond to your personal opinion on the matter. Simply stating that Eurasianet is accurate (and implying that other sources are not) does not make it more and other sources less accurate or reliable. It only creates disbalanced and misleading picture, which you refuse to support by any evidence other than your own claim.
 * I invite you to add results from other sources. No one is stopping you.  For your education, the Eurasianet poll was added by me, while the Populus poll was added by User:Սահակ.Serouj (talk) 19:41, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

"Your opinion on British Populus won't stop from their survey being listed here." 1. You can simply do a search on google to see that British Populus was mixed in and several dozens controversies. This is not a matter of my opinion (which I have not even voiced on this matter). It is a matter of presenting balanced information on this issue, and using controversial poll agency like British Populus as your only source is hardly the best way to go about it. 2. I was not suggesting removing them; but if you are going to quite them (which is fine) then you also need to quote other polls that had different numbers.
 * Again, you're assuming I'm the person who added the Populus poll, which is wrong. In reality, it doesn't matter who added it.  I'm not sure what it is that you're suggesting. If you'd like to add another poll, then by all means, do so.  It will, however, be required to be referenced.  Serouj (talk) 19:44, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

"BTW, their "31 percent" of voters supporting HHk is on the HIGH side, so I don't know why you are complaining!)"

1. Numbers do not matter (as well as subjective opinions). It is the principle of presenting accurate and balanced information. By the way, I am not even a fan of the party, never even voted for them. 2. I am not complaining; I am merely point out inaccuracies in this article.

"If you have better sources, then why not help Wikipedia out by doing some work instead of making suggestions to others?"

Your suggestions to work, while you do not even know me or what I do, combined with your claims that I'm complaining, are rather rude and are aimed at attacking me as a person. I would prefer keeping this discussion about the topic itself, no need to get personal. I hope you understand that personal attacks are not the best way to have a civilized discussion. Nzurabyan (talk) 19:33, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * In the article, we reference both sources such that there is no ambiguity as to where the data is coming from: "According to Eurasianet..." and "According to Populus..." Polls are inherently biased as they are based on a random sampling of the population.  That they are biased, though, doesn't mean that they cannot be included in Wikipedia! Just as long as they are cited. Serouj (talk) 19:47, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * To sum up, I think the polling data that we have in the article is well-balanced, but could use some more data points: Eurasianet's poll of 16% is on the low side, while Populus's poll of 31% is on the higher end. So I think the two complement one another nicely. Serouj (talk) 19:59, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Political Corruption
Sub-section: HHK official accused in corruption

This whole section is based on one article from Armenian Liberty that indicates that a single member of a party was accused (please note, not under investigation, but simply accused) in corruption (while he maintains his innocence, which you failed to mention).

While there may or may not be widespread corruption in party's ranks, you have not presented any valid sources to support that statement or prove it within reasonable doubt. Yet, your wording makes a false generalization and creates impression that the whole party is considered corrupt. Once again, this is a personal perspective and viewpoint presented as a factual matter- which is misleading.

Suggestions: either find more reliable sources that would prove corruption of the members or remove the sub-section of the article, since it represents your (or Armenia Liberty's articles) personal viewpoint, rather than a fact. Nzurabyan (talk) 17:07, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The accusations against Khatchatrian is an ongoing case; he is under investigation. From the article: "The official added that he will forward the case to state prosecutors after the Audit Chamber completes financial inspections of government bodies in Syunik by the end of this year."
 * Also, the section is a work in progress. There are numerous corrupt elected officials in the HHK (and not only the HHK, other political parties too; so don't think the HHK is being singled out here).  It's just a matter of importing the data from the available reliable news sources which thankfully can be found on the web. Serouj (talk) 18:33, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
