Talk:Cipher in the Snow

Latest comment: 6 years ago by Pastychomper

(a) Why does this page have a link from "cipher" to the number zero? On the page for zero there is no reference to "cipher".

(b) There is a reference to this film in the Basic Instructions web cartoon strip http://basicinstructions.net/basic-instructions/2013/4/14/how-to-sound-old.html , but I don't know if that warrants a "References" link.

As far as the first question, cipher means zero in this context; the main character is a "nothing". Perhaps a better link would be this (where, for example, it states "one may refer to a person as being a "'social cipher', but would name them 'Mr. Zero'").
For the second, it could warrant a popular cultural section, perhaps, much like many movies/films/songs have, but at this point it's about the only call-out to the film, so probably not worth putting. ~Araignee (talkcontribs) 22:09, 11 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
I've changed the link for "cipher" to Araignee's suggestion. Pastychomper (talk) 08:46, 16 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

THE LINK IN THE LEFT HAND PAGE TO RONALD JENKINS IS WRONG. IT LEADS TO A PAGE ENTITLED "RONALD STEWARD JENKINS". THE ACTOR'S NAME IS RONALD WILDE JENKINS, AND IS A DIFFERENT PERSON.
