Changes to the DYK page[edit]

Rather than just have four, pathetic DYKs sitting out there, I turned this page into a table. I added two message boxes at the top -- one designating the page for DYKs which appeared on Wikipedia's main page, and the other describing how people can add DYKs and what they should do when they add one. I then went back about eight months in Wikipedia's DYK archives and added all the pornography-related DYKs I could find (there are roughly 12 of them; I may have missed some, sorry). I populated the table. I then changed the Pornography Portal site to select one DYK at random from the DYK entries here.

To add a DYK entry, just click on the next empty link, and add and save the entry.

As people add DYKs, they will need to increase the "max" number on the Portal main page.

I hope this change is all right with everyone. - Tim1965 (talk) 20:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Old DYK-error?[edit]

I see on the page "...that the nudie cutie The Adventures of Lucky Pierre was the first sexploitation movie to be filmed in color?" Lucky Pierre was released in 1961, and Russ Meyer's The Immoral Mr. Teas in 1959. Am I missing some distinction? Because Mr. Teas is in color, and, as far as I've always known, it's considered a sexploitation/"nudie-cutie"... I supposed there's no way to fix this now though...

I see also "It was unique for its time and genre, adding successful comedy to the nudity and sensationalist material." I can't say for sure, but I don't think so... I think it was Friedman & Lewis' first "nudie cutie", but the genre was initiated by Meyer (as far as I know). Wasn't Doris Wishman making her nudist colony films from 1960?... I see some of this is attributed to Friedman, who can be forgiven for blowing his own horn, if that's the case here. Or possibly he was just saying it was his & Lewis' first work in the genre?...
