- 21:5521:55, 29 August 2024 diff hist −8 Backbeat (soundtrack) The first sentence was broken in a recent edit, left saying that the soundtrack stars the stars of the movie. They don't sing on it. Restoring the previous wording which was fine. Extra phrases to say that the soundtrack and the movie are different, but both called Backbeat, is just unnecessary verbiage. (which this note may have too ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯ ) current Tag: Visual edit

It's the right tower in this case, but it's a second image that's very simliar to the first, not adding anything to the page. current Tags: Twinkle Undo

- 18:0318:03, 6 July 2024 diff hist −155 The Breaking Point (1950 film) This sentence about Garfield's next film is misplaced; it's about Garfield, not _The Breaking Point_. It's material for his article, where it's covered - not here. Mentioning that _TBP_ is his penultimate film is not a prompt to follow that up with chatty tidbits that are unnecessary trivia here. (The sentence was also grammatically broken, but needs to be cut, not fixed. Sorry to sound harsh. But Garfield's life and career have their own big page.) Tag: Visual edit

Moved it to its place in the timeline, with a source edit (the visual seemed to malfunction). It's still one entry including multiple years, whereas other listings use multiple entries for multiple years -- so that's still not correct. But all I got time for now. I placed this entry by the earlier dates it includes. Tag: Visual edit
