:Well, when I was copying that "Storyline" from IMDb, I did make some changes in it - got rid of words which wouldn't be immediately understandable (such as "grunt"), simplified syntax a little, dropped couple of sentences which were non-informative or could be construed as judgemental or subjective, linked to other Wikipedia articles (such as [[Gambino crime family]])... Isn't that enough? Especially since I clearly stated in my cited reference where that text originated from (so I wasn't trying to pass it as my own material) - and especially since that "Storyline" was supposed to serve as '''temporary placeholder for plot summary to provide general idea of what the film is about''' until proper "Plot" would be added to the article.

:::Hi Mike,
:::Hi Dianna,
:::Thanks for your clarifications - and for your patience with me. To be honest, to me it always seemed preferable to use the exact original words when quoting or citing something on Wikipedia, because having to re-express something in one's own words would almost result in subjectivity and emotional bias, i.e. non-factualness. However, with your concerns about possible copiright infringement clearly expressed, I guess there's nothing else to be done about it.

== IMDb ==

I notice your edit on [[Amy Seimetz]] that said, in part, "... so that all roles are as listed on IMDb". Please remember that IMDb is not a reliable source for contents of Wikipedia articles. [[WP:IMDB]] [[User:Teblick|Eddie Blick]] ([[User talk:Teblick|talk]]) 01:08, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

:Hi Eddie,
:Yes, I'm aware of that (was picked up on that a couple of times in the past). I only mentioned [[IMDb]] in comment to my edit because I had to look up the full cast list for that short film ''Ghost of Old Highways'' anyway in order to make sure that "Hairlot" was not intentional misspelling - and then I had to decide whether to keep "The" in names of characters or not, so I thought that I might just as well use the spelling as on IMDb (that's where everybody looks for detailed information about the films, isn't it?)... But thanks for reminding me, mate. :-) [[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 13:38, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
::I appreciate your reply. Unfortunately, some editors use IMDb as a source. Your use of it sounds like a good approach. [[User:Teblick|Eddie Blick]] ([[User talk:Teblick|talk]]) 23:31, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
::You also used the reviews on IMDb as the basis for your information about the critical response to the film ''[[Devil's Peak (film)|Devil's Peak]]'', which is another mistake. IMDb reviews should not be included in the discussion of how a film was received by "critics" overall. Many of the people who write those reviews worked on the films themselves. [[User:Nicholas0|Nicholas0]] ([[User talk:Nicholas0|talk]]) 14:27, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
:::Hi Nicholas,
:::After watching ''[[Devil's Peak]]'' myself, I thought that toning down negativity about its critical reception just a little bit would be a nice thing. I liked the film - but, hell, I'm no movie critic; so I checked the reviews of the film on [[Metacritic]] and [[IMDb]], just for the sake of objectivity and balance. And the best thing one can do with reviews online is to hope for reviewers' objectivity and fairness, but take them with a pinch of salt nevertheless, right?.. The difference between "negative reviews" and "mostly negative reviews" - I wasn't trying to distort the truth about the film's merits, was I? IMO it was well worth watching.
:::But fine - it's OK to leave it as "negative reviews", if that's what you really think. :-) [[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 20:44, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello Szagory - just to let you know I removed the map from ''Hexahydrocannabinol'' as it is badly out of step with the text. I left a note to that effect on the article talk page. If there is someone with the skill and inclination to update it, it would be a good addition altho the colours are a bit grim. Regards.

:I've also added a clarification about ''Bundesregierung'' ("Federal Government") in the text. Would be great if you could find a citation to back up the fact that [[hexahydrocannabinol]] is now Class B in the UK from your previous edit yesterday - I couldn't find anything (only that HHC still remains in grey area), so I had to put {{citation_needed}} there...

You have been warned at least twice that [[WP:IMDB]] is ''not'' a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] and yet you continue to use it to make edits. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Cuckoo%27s_Curse&diff=1215115879&oldid=1203228394] [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Cuckoo%27s_Curse&diff=next&oldid=1215115879]. This is disruptive. Please take some time to learn what is and isn't a reliable source. [[User:ThaddeusSholto|ThaddeusSholto]] ([[User talk:ThaddeusSholto|talk]]) 16:37, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

:Hi [[user:ThaddeusSholto|ThaddeusSholto]],
:Taking that "violation" and "disruption" at face value - could you just tell me what exactly is wrong with somebody checking information for a film on [[IMDb]] and then adding that information to Wikipedia? It's not like I've been trying to pass false information as true, or undo somebody's changes solely on the basis of IMDB alone, right?

:In this particular case, original text of the article said: "'''''Distributed by Filmax, the film was released in cinemas on 15 September 2023.'''''" First of all, '''that was distributor only for Spain''', elsewhere (e.g. Germany) distribution is handled by different companies. Secondly, '''that date was specifically for [[theatrical release]] in Spain''' - for Germany there was no theatrical release (only on [[home media]] and just a few weeks ago).

:And now just tell me: so I went to [[IMDb]] and checked there release dates for other countries and release formats for those countries - what could be wrong with adding those extra tidbits, if '''they make only for fullness and correctness of information on Wikipedia and they don't contain obvious falsehoods'''? In effect, I corrected incongruities and falsehoods in the article, didn't I? 🤔

:P.S. And if in future I come across incompleteness of information (or even worse, if that information were misleading) - where is one supposed to find reliable information, if [[IMDb]] shouldn't be used?

:P.P.S. And just to confirm everything for me and make it simple: am I to understand that there shouldn't even any reference citations from [[IMDb]]?

:[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 17:49, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

::It has been explained to you [[User_talk:Szagory#August_2023|here]] in August 2023 and [[User_talk:Szagory#IMDb|here again]] in October 2023 that you cannot use IMDB as a source. Whether you make it an inline citation or merely mention it in your edit summary it cannot be used as it is not a [[WP:RS|reliable source]]. [[WP:IMDB]] has already been linked for you but here it is again. Please read it. Also [[WP:CITINGIMDB]] which lists distributor information and release dates as "Disputed uses." If information cannot be reliably sourced then it should either be removed or a <nowiki>{{cn}}</nowiki> tag added in the hope that another editor can provide one. IMDB should never be used to source and unsourced claim. [[User:ThaddeusSholto|ThaddeusSholto]] ([[User talk:ThaddeusSholto|talk]]) 17:57, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
:::Got you, mate - no sourcing of material from [[IMDb]] in the future (and as consequence no need for me to add citations referencing IMDb, either).
:::Although, to me it sounds a bit "over the top", if I'm honest. I mean, any web citation could be inherently unreliable, right? So presenting [[IMDb]] as absolute evil (almost to extent of banning any reference to IMDb anywhere on Wikipedia) is excessive, IMO. It's not all that much different for information from [[RT]] or [[Metacritic]] being potentially false. And reviews from 100%-reliable sources like "Hollywood Reporter" - I just find it hard to believe that their people NEVER ever resort to checking information on [[IMDb]]..
:::And just consider this: IMDb is the leading authority on anything related to any film, and information on that site becomes available WAY ahead of any other source (even on basis of the film in question, [[The Cuckoo's Curse]] - no reviews for it on [[Metacritic]], on [[RT]], even initial page for the film in missing, whereas ill initial the file is missing. Whereas on [[IMDb]] most of useful info is already there...
:::Which brings me to something you mentioned a short time ago:
::::=> ''If information cannot be reliably sourced then it should either be removed or a {{cn}} tag added in the hope that another editor can provide one.''
::::=> ''If information cannot be reliably sourced then it should either be removed or a {{cn}} tag added in the hope that another editor can provide one. IMDB should never be used to source and unsourced claim.''
:::So if in future some information on any film is for some reason not available on [[Rotten Tomatoes]] or [[Metacritic]] - what should be done? In other words, could you for example add {{cn}} to my changes in the article earlier today?
:::[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 20:31, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
::::[[WP:IMDB]] is user-generated and that is why it is unreliable. Just like wikis, forums, etc. Rotten Tomatoes isn't user-generated nor is metacritic. You asked what happens if you ''come across'' unsourced content and the answer is reliably source it if you can, CN tag if it seems likely reliable sources exist but you don't have access to them, or just remove it. If '''you''' add new content, the onus is on your to source it. You can't just add a bunch of unsourced stuff and slap a CN on it. [[User:ThaddeusSholto|ThaddeusSholto]] ([[User talk:ThaddeusSholto|talk]]) 22:25, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::Alright, [[user:ThaddeusSholto|Thaddeus]] - no worries, will comply. 😎
:::::To be honest, it has left me in something of a quandary: one goes to [[IMDb]] page for the film in order to confirm its release date (also find out when it will be released in Germany) before adding an appropriate sentence to [[WP:Lead]] - only to discover there that not only is the date listed in Wikipedia article is Spain-specific, but also that the article lists film's distributor for Spain without mentioning distributors for other territories ('''<u>which is plain false</u>''', right?) and that the film was already released in Germany, but only only on DVD. Citing IMDb as source raises lots of dander (although it's for the first time that I'm told NOT to source anything from IMDb at all! 🤔) - and now just try finding alternative citations confirming film's release dates or that distributor for Germany is indeed ''Neue Pierrot Le Fou''... 🥵
:::::But you're right, if that's how information sourced from [[IMDb]] will be treated now and in the future, such refs should be avoided (although preferred solution for me would be to treat such citations as '''''potentially''''' unreliable, maybe even tagging them with {{cn}} automatically, but still allowing them nevertheless).

<!--Template:uw-imdb !-->

[[File:Information.svg|25px]] Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to [[The Cuckoo's Curse]] have been removed because you cited the information you added to [[IMDb]]. As discussed at [[WP:RS/IMDb]], IMDb is considered a questionable source, and generally should not be used as a sole reference. You are welcome to re-add the information using a different reliable source, or with an additional source confirming the information from IMDb. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:Asqueladd|my talk page]]. Thank you. -- Asqueladd ([[User talk:Asqueladd|talk]]) 16:40, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

:Hi [[user:Asqueladd|Asqueladd]],
:I've just added a new section to Talk page of [[The Cuckoo's Curse]] by way of replying to you - let's take it from there, would be better and more convenient for everybody, I think. Alright? 😉
:[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 17:23, 23 March 2024 (UTC)


:[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 13:21, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
:Information about the film's release could be taken from [[Box Office Mojo]], I think:
::=> https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt12748562
:It doesn't show though distribution companies involved - and of course Germany isn't displayed there at all (what with release here being restricted to [[home media]]).

:And just to mention something added to the article's [[WP:Lead]] yesterday (I read the archived information on your talk page and noticed occasional incorrect usage of English there) - "''a couple of Germans''" doesn't mean the same thing as "''a German couple''".
:It is not customary though to include a brief plot description in [[WP:Lead]] (and when it's done, it's usually included in the first paragraph, not in a separate paragraph).

:Also, knowing that Spanish is your first language: putting {{lit|''The [[Cuckoo]]''}} back would make sense - it might appear unnecessary to you, but to people who don't know a single word in Spanish, it would be very helpful to know what '''''El cuco''''' actually means.
:[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 13:21, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
:::Next time, pingme if you want answers on here. For any datum, it's preferable proper sources rather than databases. I am not opposed to mentioning German distributors in the infobox nor non-domestic distributors in the body (release section), as long as you do it with proper sources establishing notability for the information, not databases. I suggest you to be open to the idea that if there are no non-database sources highlighting those facts, it may not be a very relevant data anyways. {{tq|It is not customary though to include a brief plot description in WP:Lead}} Not really, it is quite common. As for its inclusion for me it's a matter of lede section-body balance (which is a moving balance). Now the plot section is longer → a summarised synopsis could be a better fit in the lede section than before. You are fixating on non-issues. Translation adds nothing really important as Spanish title is an article plus the clear cognate of a name already contained in the English-language title. I understand that German couple is not exactly the same as couple of Germans but German couple is still contained within the meaning of couple of Germans.--Asqueladd ([[User talk:Asqueladd|talk]]) 13:39, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
::::Alright, let's leave it at that - and as is. The article doesn't look so bad now, after all - with all the changes there...
::::[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 13:50, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::No problem. Until next time. By the way, AIE ({{lang|es|agrupaciones de interés económico}}) companies are almost always one-time ad-hoc tax vehicles to take advantage of rebates. I generally include them in the infobox studio parametre along the rest of prod-cos, but try to understand why some reliable sources may sometimes omit them. It is not a big deal.--Asqueladd ([[User talk:Asqueladd|talk]]) 14:06, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::BTW, [[user:Asqueladd|Asqueladd]], as you appear to have watched the film and are clearly a native Spanish speaker: in the final scene, does Olga continue to speak Spanish with German accent (like in the rest of the film) when she speaks to the baby and when she says: "''I never liked '''my''' nose''"? Anna has offered to return '''''her''''' body to her just before that, after all... 🙄
:::::P.S. You could probably remove "GmbH" from "Barry Films" in "Production" - I put names of all the companies in there as they were shown in the credits, but now that I think about it (and in the light of what you've just written about "''AIE''"), it might look a bit unusual for company type (GmbH = ''Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung'', {{lit|''Company with limited responsibility''}}) to be included just for that production company.
:::::[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 14:16, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::::No, no, no. I did not watch the film. I cannot shed light about the plot. About the company, I usually follow the secondary sources in the body and the wording of the theatrical poster in the infobox. Other than the AIE, I recall having used some Inc. for some American production company (following sources in the body) but perhaps it's best not to do it if the poster does not display it. I am okay with removing GmbH. It's not a big deal.--Asqueladd ([[User talk:Asqueladd|talk]]) 14:26, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

:Hi Justin,
:Exactly my point: the text of your revision message implied that [[WP:Plot]] was probably too short - but applying {{shortlead}} there was misplaced as [[WP:Lead]] already had the necessary info (the right tag under the circumstances was probably {{more plot}}, which I myself add to film-related articles whenever "Plot" is either too short or called "Premise").😉
:Anyway, the tag is removed now and the article looks alright (IMO) - and hopefully there are no objections from you (who originally added that tag) to its removal. So all is well, I guess... 😎
:Cheers, mate.
:Serge Z.([[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 12:13, 27 May 2024 (UTC))
::Sorry, Justin - haven't read your original post carefully enough when replying just now.
::''<code>=> the lead does not describe what happens in the plot or what it was that critics responded to favorably or critiqued about the film.</code>''
::I don't think it's all that common for film-related articles to include even a brief summary of the film's plot - IMO, that wouldn't be called for (that's what [[WP:Plot]] is for).
::But the article does include now critics' reception in its [[WP:Lead]], doesn't it? 😉
::In any event, the article's lead now looks pretty much like hundreds of other film-related articles - so I hope you agree that there's no need for {{shortlead}}?

:::I don't think the plot section is too short, I think the lead does not give an adequate overview of the plot section. You actually point out a persistent ''problem'' with film articles, which is that many of them have inadequate overviews of the plots in the lead. "''Example'' is a 2024 movie about a man with a truck" or "''Example'' is a 2024 film, based on the book by John Doe" are not acceptable. ―[[User:Koavf|Justin (<span style="color:grey">ko'''a'''<span style="color:black">v</span>f</span>)]]<span style="color:red">❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯</span> 12:25, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
::::BTW, [[WP:Lead]] now contains:
::::''<code>=> Set in 1989, its plot follows the relationship between a reclusive gym manager, who is part of a crime family, and an ambitious bodybuilder who commits a string of murders once they get wrapped up in organized crime.</code>''
::::''<code>=>The film received positive reviews from critics.</code>''
::::So, that's description of what happens in the plot - and how the critics have responded to the film. 😉
::::I would still point out that applying {{shortlead}} under such circumstances isn't really called for - even a brief description of what the plot is about invariably bloats the lead (and is completely unnecessary, IMO); and critics' response to the film may not be known for a long time... 🙄 [[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 12:28, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
:::::Critics' responses to the film are well known by now: you can trivially find over 200 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Again, that plot synopsis is too brief. ―[[User:Koavf|Justin (<span style="color:grey">ko'''a'''<span style="color:black">v</span>f</span>)]]<span style="color:red">❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯</span> 12:30, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

:::::::I won't do that, since the plot summary is fine. It is the lead which has a problem.

::::::::I'm just thinking about that issue you've mentioned:
::::::::=> <code>''You actually point out a persistent problem with film articles, which is that many of them have inadequate overviews of the plots in the lead.''</code>
::::::::And I'm thinking now about countless other film pages where I made changes recently (just by way of example, my edits yesterday in [[Adagio (2023 film)]]) - and first of all, in order to add such a brief summary of the plot as you're describing, one would really have to read very carefully ALL OF THE PLOT'S TEXT (thus, spoiler for anybody who hasn't seen the film yet, and much more time and effort to be spent on editing); secondly, that would be pretty difficult for many films (too abstract or general, different opinions about what the plot is all about); and thirdly, would such a sentence really make the lead more informative? 🙄
::::::::Anyway, as your opinion is that [[WP:Lead]] really needs a better plot synopsis in few words (and what that article has in its lead is already way more than other film articles have), I suppose you would be justified in adding {{shortlead}} to the article. I wouldn't be doing so myself... [[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 12:49, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::Spoilers? I don't even understand this: first off, [[WP:SPOILER|we don't censor based on spoilers]] and secondly, if you haven't seen a movie and want to avoid knowing what happens in it, why are you reading an encyclopedia article about it??? Yes, an actual overview of the plot would be more informative, since that is the function of the lead: to summarize the article. Why are plots somehow exempt? Due to spoilers? ―[[User:Koavf|Justin (<span style="color:grey">ko'''a'''<span style="color:black">v</span>f</span>)]]<span style="color:red">❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯</span> 12:58, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::Don't know, mate - I haven't seen all the films for which I've made changes in Wikipedia articles (and not planning to do or even want to do), and I just don't think that such a thing as a blurb with few words about what the film's plot is all about would make the article's lead more informative or interesting (believe it or not, I've never even wanted to find such a thing about any film in advance; if you're interested in a particular film, you'd read [[WP:Plot]] completely, and if you haven't seen the film yet, then clear separation of anything related to the plot is probably advisable to avoid spoilers). Just my opinion... 😉
::::::::::[[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 13:12, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::It's like you didn't even read [[WP:SPOILER]] or what I posted at all.

::::::::::::I think I opened that [[WP:SPOILER]] page previously - and having opened it just now, it's pretty much what I'd expect: "''Wikipedia articles may include spoilers, it's unacceptable to add "spoiler warning" notices or to delete information from (or hide it within) an article because you think it spoils the plot.''" All fine and well, and not a single word that I'd have anything against... Still, doesn't change the fact that whenever I open a new page about some film I haven't seen yet, I don't go looking for information about what the film's plot is all about - and neither do I expect film articles to include such a thing in their leads. 😏
::::::::::::Having read the plot summary in the lead of [[Love Lies Bleeding (2024 film)]] (presumably written by you, right?), I do agree though that such a '''well-written succinct''' synopsis doesn't spoil things. Still, I wouldn't insist on ALL FILM ARTICLES having such a sentence (and it's probably too much to expect such poignancy for all articles).😉
::::::::::::Anyway, nice chatting to you, Justin - good to have a frank exchange of opinions and hopefully nobody's feelings hurt, eh?
::::::::::::Cheers,
::::::::::::Serge Z. ([[User:Szagory|Szagory]] ([[User talk:Szagory#top|talk]]) 13:31, 27 May 2024 (UTC))
:::::::::::::Maybe {{expand section|[[WP:Lead]] should include brief plot synopsis and critics' reception}} would be a better choice to express the perceived lack of some information in [[WP:Lead]] though? You can describe in there better what you think is lacking or missing.... 🙄
