Hey David. Just wanted to let you know that the correct spelling of the company is "Procter & Gamble," not "Proctor." I noticed a lot of instances of that and wanted to let you know so you could correct it before publishing. TheCustomOfLife 21:04, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Feel free to correct it yourself, as well. This is, after all, about collaboration ;-) --David Shankbone 22:07, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
I will if I have time. I'm working on publishing my own interview. :) TheCustomOfLife 22:11, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Daytime"= "soap opera"

Regarding, [1], I'm an American and wasn't aware of this so it might make sense to include anyways for people not as familiar with the terminology. JoshuaZ 01:02, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

There are also "prime-time" soaps so I agree it is not immediately redundant, please restore. --SVTCobra 01:08, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
When you have the signifier "daytime television" at the end, it is redundant. Nighttime may or may not mean soaps, but daytime means soaps 100%. The only other thing on strict network daytime schedules are game shows, and what actresses act on game shows? Not restoring. TheCustomOfLife 06:22, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
What would Ellen, Oprah, Regis, et. al. fall under? What about Starting Over House? Or, for that matter, all of the categories under the Daytime Emmy Awards?--David Shankbone 15:19, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
I said network daytime schedules. Those are syndicated shows. TheCustomOfLife 21:36, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
You are speaking strictly from the point of a fan, and clearly the distinction is unclear to the rest of the non-daytime watching world. --David Shankbone 21:47, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
People seriously don't get it otherwise? I don't think it's a fan thing, it's a reading comprehension thing. And yes I am a fan, and a proud one, too. Don't you make me feel bad about that. TheCustomOfLife 01:29, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
Nobody "makes" you feel anything; feelings are internally controlled. Regardless, the point I made still stands. --David Shankbone 01:54, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
We are catering to an international audience here. Beyond worrying if "day-time soap" is redundant, we should rather worry about explaining what a "soap" is to people who probably have not heard that term when referring to something other than for washing. IMO, it should state day-time and soap-opera, and link soap. What a waste of editorial time this is. --SVTCobra 02:23, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
Do what you want. I'm done with it. TheCustomOfLife 03:38, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Typo

{{editprotected}}
'the the' => Either the quote is incorrect and it should be only one 'the', or the quote is correct and [sic] should be added. Van der Hoorn (talk) 13:48, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
