Hi Ward301, I notice you've been trying to fix the cast list for the film. I agree with you that Heather O'Rourke should not be listed first unless she was billed first. I don't have a copy of the film - do you? I would suggest that the cast list should be in the order they were billed in the film credits. Perhaps you could put something on the talk page to explain that, if you change it back. I'm sure that Craig T Nelson and Jobeth Williams would have been credited first, and although the story centres around Carol Ann, she is absent for a lot of the film. We don't actually see her while the rest of the family is looking for her, and I'm sure that a 5 year old in her first film would not have been given top billing.

Maybe another way of doing it could be to have a subheading for each film under the "cast" header and list the cast for each in order of billing. I think that would be the fairest and most NPOV way of doing it. What do you think? [[User:Rossrs|Rossrs]] 00:11, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

==On Maria Goretti==

{{Rosid-stub}}

You had questions, here's my answer. Hope I'm not messing up...

I didn't include my source since it wasn't of the online type, but of the audiovisual one. It was the EWTN TV special on Saint Maria Goretti produced by the EWTN, called "Fourteen Flowers of Forgiveness" (or "Catorce Flores de Perdón" in Spanish; since I live in Latin America, I watched the Spanish dub version). It *specifically* stated that only the Goretti family attended the canonization ceremony, and as a proof they showed photographies of the ceremony that featured Assunta and her four remaining children (including two sons, one of them coming all the way from the USA to join his family in such an important event). None of these specific pictures featured Alessandro; only the remaining Gorettis. The EWTN page on Maria Goretti ( http://www.ewtn.com/library/mary/goretti.htm ) mentions this; while it states how Assunta and Maria's siblings went to the ceremony, it doesn't say *anywhere* that Alessandro went with them.

EWTN is a quite serious Catholic media network, and the special itself was very well-documented and had several interviews including people who either knew Maria or worked in the beatification/canonization processes, so I went with their version. I'll leave things as they are in the page by now, or at least until I can get a more detailed source, but here I'm proving you that I'm not purely saying things because I say so or believe so.

The above two links should both confirm Tarantino had planned to play Pai Mei. As for Kill Bill being the only Tarantino films he has not appeared in, that can easily be confirmed by looking at the imdb credits for his other films. He has appeared in all of them but Kill Bill. <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[Special:Contributions/220.238.8.7|220.238.8.7]] ([[User talk:220.238.8.7|talk]]) 19:17, 16 January 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

Ego has nothing to do with it. You are supposed to [[WP:RFPP|request unprotection]] when you have reached a consensus, we do not wait for you to finish it and watch the page for ever. [[User:Cbrown1023|Cbrown1023]] 23:40, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
