possible confusion: pantomime in different languages, British vs. American English etc
editthere is sometimes confusion about links because of similar but different terms and definitions in some languages, especially because of British and American English (mime vs. pantomime/panto). One problem is that most wikis have broad topic articles about pantomime (AE = mime), but enwiki redirected their general article to "mime artist" in the past, and at the term "pantomime" it has a specific article about Christmas panto. i hope the following list helps.
the general/broad terms:
- AE: mime, most other languages: Pantomime – mime (Q39818) – theatrical genre, performance art using silent gestures – see en:Mime (currently redirect to "mime artist"), en:Category:Mime and Commons: Category:Mime (theatre and performance art)
- BE/AE: mime or mime artist, some other languages: Pantomime – mime artist (Q674067) – individual artist, someone who uses mime as a theatrical medium or performance art – see en:Mime artist + en:Category:Mimes and Commons: Category:Mimes
more specific terms:
- BE: pantomime or panto, AE and other languages: Christmas pantomime or British/English pantomime – pantomime (Q13409536) – type of musical comedy developed in England, performed around Christmas based on a fairy tale – see en:Pantomime, Category:Pantomime and Commons: Category:Pantomime (musical comedy)
- American pantomime – American pantomime (Q4745508) – American form of British "Christmas pantomime" – see en:American pantomime
- Greek (panto)mime or "mimo greco" – Q3858223 – ancient theatre genre – see es:Mimo (Antigua Grecia)
- Latin (panto)mime or "mimo latino" – Q3858224 – ancient theatre genre – see it:Mimo latino
and there are some more items, which are related in some way but i can't translate and describe:
- miming (Q17502115)
- etc.
