Orain hacked?[change source]
What happened to Orain??
- Indeed, Orain was DDOS'ed and we are not sure if it will ever come back and if the data still exists, for more info please go on IRC, on channel #orain. Reception123/Receptie123 (talk) 14:57, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
Carrie (2002 movie)[change source]
Hi Receptie. Re: the RfD discussion, this was a bit lengthy and I thought it better to mention here. I did some looking into this to see if it could be saved by some reliable source citations. First, the enwiki article does not really claim notability either. The Daily Telegraph called it "a pale copy of the classic 1970s horror movie" and the ending "a half-baked anti-climactic effect." It did not help that it followed a flopped version on Broadway. Rotten Tomatoes gave it 2½ stars and Metacritic did not even rate it. Variety magazine was kinder, but gave it a lukewarm review. It said: "For her part, Moretz can scarcely be blamed for falling short of one of the most iconic performances in horror cinema…" It excused the performance saying more or less Spacek was a hard act to follow. The movie was intended to lead into a TV series, but was cancelled. I'm sure there must be some better reviews, but this is harder to show as notable without selectively avoiding several negative critics. I'm not trying to sway your comment but just let you know what I found. Thanks. User:Rus793 (talk) 21:11, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
- I have not done enough research for this movie, and I now agree with you. Reception123/Receptie123 (talk) 04:26, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
your quick[change source]
I was going to tag that last page for deletion myself but you beat me to the punch. --Fdena (talk) 14:39, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
- :) I saw it on IRC and quickly tagged it. It happens to me too that someone is quicker! Reception123/Receptie123 (talk) 14:42, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
- William Whitelaw is a real human being that is notable so i made a page for him and another whitelaw which is also notable. --Fdena (talk) 14:44, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
