The disambiguation

edit

I think that the disambiguation should be made a seperate page, Currently I think its there becuase "Cousteau" links to this page. What are your thoughts on this. Also does anyone have an acceptable picture of him? I do have books with his picture but they are copyrighted works making them of no use for Wikipedia. --Silver86 22:47, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC) nasio en chupa me la pija

Page renamed

edit

I've moved this back to Jacques Cousteau, and fixed the double-redirects, as this is how he is most commonly known in English, per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names).--Pharos 04:14, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Vangelis/Jean Michel Jarre albums?

edit

Hello, thought it would be appropriate to add the Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre tribute (?) albums in the pop culture section, since Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre are such grand musicians and all. Agree?

John Denver

edit

Didnt John Denver sing a song about Calypso and was used as the theme of the TV Show?

Philippe Cousteau son/grandson

edit

It mentions Philippe, Jacques's son who was born 1940 and died in 1979 in an accident. Philippe must have had a son named Philippe as he was working with Steve Irwin, the crocodile hunter at the time of Steve's death. The article makes it sound like Philipe, the grandson must be dead. Someone might want to update Jacques's personal history a bit more.

Also this doesn't make any sense:

edit

In July 1997 he participated in the production of a low budget documentary in Armadale, Western Australia, which portrayed the plight of an innocent hen being attacked by a fox. This documentary used spectacular special effects making use of a bag of feathers being agitated by a stick with a bit of red felt attached[6].

Filmography sources

edit

Hi. The Jacques_Cousteau#Filmography section claims that we have the "actual" order, year, and name, of the films, which is supposedly "incorrect on the official filmography". Yet we do not have references for neither of them. We do not point to the official filmography. More so, we do not point to how and where do we have better sources than the official one. BTW, the last column, "Cousteau Film", also needs some explanation, what else other than Cousteau films do we expect in a filmography of Cousteau's films? - Nabla (talk)
