Talk:Cahiers du Cinéma

First editor?

Was Rohmer Cahiers' first editor? I'd always heard that Bazin was and that Rohmer took over after Bazin's death. --Jeremy Butler 12:31, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Was this phrase used?

I am moving this line from the Young Turks disambig page, as there is no mention of this phrase at the target article here. perhaps with some research this can be added:

• Young Turks, a group of critics and directors associated with the French New Wave, in particularly those associated with Cahiers du cinéma during the late 1950s and early 1960s.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 01:21, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Yes the phrase is used in association with the the French New Wave and the directors that were part of the magazine and is noted in various sources including the Harvard Film Review translation. Some more research will have to done to figure out who exactly it's referring to: a lot of the sources mention the main writers, Godard, Truffaut, Rohmer, Chabrol, but many just mention New Wave Directors in general. I think it's more of a concept rather than a specific group of people, referring to French New Wave directors and the type of people they were. Opencooper (talk) 13:49, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Capitalization consistency

Is the second "c" in the title supposed to be capitalized? The article title doesn't do it and neither does the french Wikipedia. However, the article text does capitalize it. The Harvard Film Studies translation also capitalized it. One would presume that since this is a publication it would be in titlecase rather than Wikipedia's sentence-case preference for titles. Whichever we choose, the title should be consistent throughout. Opencooper (talk) 13:25, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

We should capitalize the "cinema" portion of the title. The magazine itself capitalizes it that way. When we change it, we must update references to this article too. Prad Nelluru (talk) 04:49, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

Top ten lists

Wouldn't the lists be considered copyrighted property of Cahiers du cinéma and, hence, not appropriate for including in an article? Trivialist (talk) 22:26, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

Anyone? Trivialist (talk) 11:18, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Including top ten lists should fall under fair-use since the intent is educational (not commercial), the amount of text is small (not the entire top 10 article, for instance), it shouldn't affect the market for the magazine at all. Prad Nelluru (talk)

Page Additions

I'm adding additional material to the History section of the page, with the intent of clarifying and expanding greatly upon the page's recounting of the early history of the magazine. Douglas Firs (talk) 19:40, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
