Natalie and ChristineEdit
I don't understand why you took them out? they are more principal than most on there and credited higher.... KellanRose7 (talk) 22:37, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
- You're welcome to remove other non-principal characters or start a discussion at the film's Talk page. Please keep WP:FILMCAST in mind. DonIago (talk) 13:57, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
The Gamesters of TriskelionEdit
Hi Doniago,
I'm replying to your message concerning the link between this Star Trek TOS episode and 'A Space Oddity', an episode of CSI. I'm not sure whether this would be suitable for a citation, but see what you think: https://csi.fandom.com/wiki/A_Space_Oddity
This is an excerpt from the page: "This episode spoofs Star Trek. Wallace Langham, Liz Vassey, Kate Vernon, Bradley Thompson, David Weddle, Naren Shankar and Ronald D. Moore all worked on assorted Trek spin-offs in one capacity or another. Also, many of the 'fantasy' sequences between Hodges and Wendy are obvious spoofs of scenes from Star Trek. For example, the scene where Hodges and Wendy are wearing "obedience collars" and Wendy is running Hodges trough training exercises is clearly an homage to the Star Trek episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion," which has a scene that's nearly identical."

- Hi Ken, thanks for reaching out to me! Wikis are not reliable sources because anyone can edit them, much as Wikipedia itself wouldn't be considered a reliable source.
- However, if the wiki itself had cited another source for its information, you might have been able to use that source as a citation. Sadly, that doesn't seem to be the case in this instance. DonIago (talk) 12:29, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
- No worries Doniago. Thanks for the explanation,
- Ken G 60.240.102.69 (talk) 14:57, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
David Boreanaz removal of editEdit
Hi, I am replying to your removal of my edit in the personal life section about Chrome Girl nail polish. You stated that I did not have a citation but it was cited in the edit that statement’s were released on both David and Jamie’s Instagram and twitter. There was also a statement which is the last statement on the official Chrome Girl nail polish Instagram stating that not only were David and Jamie no longer associated with the company but Melissa was also not associated. Here is a link to the chrome girl nail polish account with the statement https://www.instagram.com/p/BiUmg7GBhGi/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Can you please restore the edit as I did give correct information? Also so I know for future reference how should I have done the edit so that it would not be removed and that it would have been cited correctly? If you can not restore the deleted edit am I okay to go ahead and place the information in that section with the other Chrome Girl information? Ab101216 (talk) 19:07, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
- If that's Chrome Girl's official page and it can be authenticated as such (the link isn't working for me), then you can probably get away with citing it, but I'd recommend reviewing WP:INSTAGRAM first, and frankly I'd recommend finding a less potentially problematic source. In any event, just saying, "it was posted on social media" is insufficient; you need to provide enough data that they at least know where/when to look for a confirming statement, just as one shouldn't say, "A Simpsons episode referenced Citizen Kane", but rather, "The May 15, 2018 episode of The Simpsons referenced Citizen Kane when X happened..."
- The other issue was that you added your information in front of an existing citation, presenting the impression that that citation was intended to support the text you were adding (and it could have been interpreted subsequently as not supporting the text preceding your addition).
- Hope this is helpful. DonIago (talk) 19:25, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
Gavin HoodEdit
Hi! WD means Wikidata. There are references for the exact date given. As I am not sure if at the English Wikipedia the infoboxes are connected to Wikidata, I wanted to state from where I have this info. Cassandro (talk) 13:52, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
- They're not. As I'm not very familiar with Wikidata or how it works, can you please provide a proper citation? Right now in the article the birthdate appears without a source. Thank you! DonIago (talk) 13:58, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
Mad WorldEdit
Thank you for reviewing my contributions to It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. While I did add to the total character count, I still think my version of the plot summary had several pros over the reverted one: namely, dividing up the character's concurrent journeys by car (as recommended here), explaining how all characters arrive and who is involved in the climax, and omitting what seemed to be cruft. I will give it another shot and see what else I can eliminate. Specialsam110 (talk) 15:36, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for understanding. I entirely agree with and support your ideas regarding cleaning up the article, but we should still bear WP:FILMPLOT in mind. If you come up with something that you think might be good but are still struggling with the word count, I'd be happy to take a stab at trimming it down for you! DonIago (talk) 15:57, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
- Got it down to 728 words, which is still more than recommended, but fewer than the version you reverted to. Specialsam110 (talk) 16:42, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

SD40Edit
What are you doing here? You realise that 80% of articles means that well over a million articles need more than 40 characters to provide sufficient context, right? Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 20:43, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
- If you feel that this article merits an exception to WP:SD40, you're welcome to start a discussion at the article's Talk page to see how other editors feel. DonIago (talk) 01:12, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- If you expect over a million people to start talk page discussions after being mechanically reverted then I don't know what to tell you. I'll leave my comment, fix it again when the expected zero opposition occurs, and not expect this to happen again. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 08:34, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Discussion about meEdit
Well it seems the edits I've made that have been reverted are very minor, not substantial or even major. So yes I apologise, but to go as far as wanting to block me is an overreaction in my opinion and not necessary. I never change important information without reliable sources. I mostly add dates and very little information, so I won't even do that anymore and there's no need to block me, thank you. Gorrrillla5 03:56, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
- I would recommend you say this at the ANI filing, not here. Minor edits or not, making edits that results in you being repeatedly asked to change your editing behavior and refusing to engage with those concerns while continuing to engage in the problematic behavior isn't, IMO, acceptable conduct, and I find it telling that you're only communicating with me now after I've escalated this to ANI. DonIago (talk) 04:05, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
- Well because I've been doing these type of edits to article descriptions for a very long while now and never had anyone complain before, so of course with your concerns I didn't really understand the problem as I've even been thanked for a couple of my article descriptions recently. I'll comment on the ANI filing and state the exact same thing I've done now, I will add that I won't make anymore edits deemed disruptive by you from now on. Gorrrillla5 04:18, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
- I've left you multiple and escalating notes since mid-June, well over a month ago now. If you didn't understand the problem, you could have asked for more information, but you instead chose to ignore my notes and continue with your (arguably) disruptive editing. If other editors feel that your message(s) at the ANI filing are sufficient then I'm content to call this a misunderstanding and move on, but I do want to hear from other editors, as it concerns me that I needed to escalate this to the level of an ANI filing before you chose to engage at all. Personally, I think it might help if you also agreed to be more responsive to notices left at your Talk page. DonIago (talk) 04:34, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Psycho GenreEdit
Hello, I hope you are well.
I noticed you have reverted the genre lead of Psycho from horror back to thriller. If you visit the film's talk page, the consensus was reached that horror was more relevant and appropriate for this film. Thriller is a very broad genre, and Here are several articles supporting its place as one of the most influential horror films:
https://ew.com/article/2009/08/04/psycho-the-horror-movie-that-changed-the-genre/ https://www.theguardian.com/film/2010/oct/22/psycho-horror-hitchcock https://www.popmatters.com/alfred-hitchcock-psycho-mother-horrors https://decider.com/2019/10/19/psycho-perfect-horror-movie/ https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/how-alfred-hitchcock-psycho-changed-horror-forever/
IMDb has it listed as a Horror, Mystery, Thriller, and Rotten Tomatoes, in its genre listing as well as its critics consensus, refers to it as a horror film. Even the 'Horror film' Wikipedia page mentions Psycho as one of the most significant horror films that changed cinema in the 1960s here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horror_film
So I hope this can be the same for the film's Wikipedia page to keep it in conformity with all the other sources. Thank you. HA5797 (talk) 07:15, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
- Ack. I'm sorry, you're totally right about that. Heck, I supported "Horror" in the Talk page discussion. I got my thriller-horror wires crossed there. Mea culpa! DonIago (talk) 13:26, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
