Talk:Jet Li

Dear Matt, good start.

• Please also upload your powerpoint presentation and then extend the existing article. Now it is still too short. It is about 1 screen page now, the rest are lists of films etc. The final version should be 7 pages.
• You need not only to describe things, but also switch to the commentator role (maybe indicated by "Contemporary Commentator:" and then evaluate and discuss the topic from different angles, put it into context, criticize etc.).
• If you want to write less, you can integrate more pictures.
• Please make sure to indicate your source after each sentence or, if there is a whole paragraph with the same source, after each paragraph. You can indicate it like "Smith 2009:345" and in the final section "References" write the long version "Smith, Jared, Confucius revisted, Yale University Press 2009, 415 pp."
• Of course, if you write something you created yourself (like a conclusion, comment etc.) you cannot indicate a source.
• In the edit mode, section headers are indicated with "=" and sub section headers with "==".
• In the edit mode, paragraphs need to be marked with 2 line feeds ("Enter" key). 1 Line feed will not show up as a paragraph.
• For additional editing tips, including how to indicate sources and how to find copyright free pictures, please refer to our Wiki steps.
• Good luck with your composition! Best, Root (talk) 04:36, 28 February 2013 (CET)

I agree with 143robertb. Some more clips would be great! --Zombies Don't Eat Vegans (talk) 04:50, 28 February 2013 (CET)

Maybe you could put up some screenshots from his movies and add them to the article to make it more engaging. --Linksys (talk) 07:53, 1 March 2013 (CET)

So, Jet Li's father died at the age of two? That would mean that he had to have gotten his wife pregnant at the age of 1. Anyway, watch out for confusing wording like that. Personally, I'd like to hear more about what makes Jet Li as popular as he is. I mean, obviously he's great at martial arts, but what is it that makes him so likable to audiences in America. One can see how someone like Jackie Chan is as popular as he is based on his mixing of action and comedy (Americans love comedy), but Jet Li has a much more serious approach to things, and I'd like to hear your thoughts as to why he is so well received over here where there are many Chinese martial artists who don't gain such popularity. It would also be interesting to see an analysis of his performance in one or two of his films and how his acting technique compares to other actors in his field. --Professor Wiskers McMeowmouth (talk) 22:18, 1 March 2013 (CET)
