History does not acknowledge forerunners to 4DX

Hopefully, someone with knowledge can beef up the history section to include information on the prior technologies that led to 4DX. There existed theaters with similar technology before 2009.* Always wondered what happened to this experience, and didn't know anything actually came of it in Hollywood until I looked up Journey to the Center of the Earth.

* Well, one theater at least. There was one in the Camp Snoopy theme park at the Mall of America in Minnesota. When we visited in the late '90s, I went with my girlfriend and watched some 20-30 minute movie made for it. I do not recall what the movie was but I remember the seats moving as a truck went barreling down a dirt road as well as fog and mist. Supposedly there were smells, but I never smelled anything nor did my girlfriend, but other audience members mentioned something. Regardless, there was something similar to 4DX before its release, and this page acts as if nothing like it ever existed until 4DX came along. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WTFruff (talk • contribs) 00:36, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

Advertisement, press release

I've just tagged this article with {{Peacock}} and {{Advert}}, which IMHO are pretty evident from just reading the intro. Furthermore, though, the source cited for the intro is a press release by the manufacturer. The cited source, PRNewswire, is explicitly an aggregator of press releases, and the cited article begins

4DX Announces Yash Raj Films' "WAR" As The Next Indian Film To Be Released In Multi-Sensory 4DX Cinema Experience

Change in citation data

I've reverted part of this recent edit. In properly removing some of the unabashed promotional material, Ws1920 deleted parts of the title of a citation. That we must not do: the cited source is what it is, not what we would like it to be. The title appears only in the ref. If it were in the text of the article we could and should delete it there, but not in the ref itself. --Thnidu (talk) 00:55, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Nominate for speedy deletion

Some of the promotional material that I thought I removed earlier has been reinstated. And even without reference to the edit history, it is plain on reading the article that it is all about the company's commercial history, its expansion, and its awards – nothing about what this "leading next-generation cinema technology company" does that makes it so successful. Further, four of the sources cited are from newswire.com, which as its name reveals is simply an aggregator of press releases.

What's left here is not worth keeping in anything like its current state. If someone has the interest, knowledge, and time to turn this into something deserving of encyclopedic mention, please be bold and do so.

I am pinging the two largest contributors to the page:

• WikiFanCreator2010, who created the page 22:44, 18 November 2012 with 12,121 bytes and made a total of 106 edits to it, the last of them 18:38, 9 April 2015, although they continued editing other articles till 18:38, 9 April 2015 (an edit to La leyenda del Chupacabras). Nothing after that until they cleaned out their sandbox 01:18, 7 January 2018, their last edit to date.
• World Movie, who as of this moment has made 14 edits since 2018-05-17, last edit on 2019-10-17, all of them to 4DX. All of them are tagged m for "minor edit", though the size changes of the first four were -22,017, +2,159, -3,409, and +5,789 bytes, and the latest four all figure in three digits.
