This article seems premature

Gosh, this article seems terribly premature to me. There is a very good chance that the film will never be made. Sia has never financed, written or directed a feature film before, and there is no real information available about it, other than that she has written a script and has a star in mind who has never appeared in a feature film. See WP:CRYSTAL. -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:18, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

"Untitled Sia Project" (2017)

I haven't seen any info to confirm that Sia's movie project currently in production and featuring Kate Hudson and Maddie Ziegler (and possibly Leslie Odom, Jr.) is related to "Sister". Media references using the name "Sister" for the current project have no basis for using that title. There have been no official announcements about the project.

Hi, Another Beliver. I agree with Somambulant1. The original screenplay that Sia wrote, called Sister, which was to star Ziegler, was apparently abandoned. This new project, starring Kate Hudson, which has been (I think erroneously) called Sister by a couple of sources, is apparently a different project, although Ziegler is still involved. The description of it that is contained in this article is likely mostly wrong. I suggest that you revert your changes and wait until an official announcement is made about the new project, which will probably be under a different title. -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:21, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
Oh! I didn't assume sources like this and this and this and this (you get my point...), which mention Sister and Kate Hudson, were erroneous. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:15, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
You should realize that those sources are likely conflating the two separate projects, as you are. None of those newer sources mention what the new film is about, or state that Sia has confirmed that it has anything to do with the earlier project. None of them spoke to Sia about the new project; they are just reporting based on wisps of information from social media and papparazzi sightings. You seem to be an experienced Wikipedian, so I would think you understand that we should not list a whole article based on the unconfirmed speculation that it is similar to an earlier project. Soon enough, Sia will announce something about the new project, and if it has anything to do with the earlier project, we could re-add it. I suggest that this article be removed and the redirect be restored in its place, for now. -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:53, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

@Ssilvers: This newly published article describes the project as a musical called Music. Do you think this page should be moved? ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:01, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

Yes, of course. As we tried to tell you above, Sia has not called the film project "Sister" since 2015, and the later sources that called it that were in error. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:14, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
I've moved the page to Music (upcoming film). ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:22, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

"The Greatest" (Sia song)

I realize Askill and Ziegler also worked with Sia on the music video for "The Greatest", but please don't add this song to the list without sourcing. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:27, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

"The Greatest" is already mentioned in the article (and sourced), as is "Cheap Thrills". But these, and other more recent videos, were not part of the original trio of videos that Sia and Ziegler released prior to Sia's 2015 announcement of the Sister project. This will all be moot, however, once Sia actually announces the correct information about the upcoming film (including its actual title), when we will be able to correct this largely out-of-date article. -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:21, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
I've now removed the names of the songs, as they are tangential to the film. It is enough to say that they worked together on a series of music videos. -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:01, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
Works for me. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:02, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Tag

@Theroadislong: I've removed the tags you added. I'm not sure why they are necessary if the editor's edits were reverted. ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:46, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Infobox image

  Resolved

IMDb has artwork for this film. Can this be added to the infobox? ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:03, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm on it. :) BOVINEBOY2008 23:34, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
Bovineboy2008, Great, thank you! ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:35, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Conflict of interest

User:Valerievg states here [1] that they doing the marketing on an upcoming film, which is clearly a conflict of interest. Theroadislong (talk) 16:44, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Theroadislong, Ok, so what. Their contributions were reverted. There's no need to have a tag on the page forever ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:45, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
I've added the connected contributor template to the top of this page. Feel free to improve appropriately. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:47, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

@Theroadislong: Since the tag has been added to the top of this talk page, do you mind if I archive this section? ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:37, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

@Another Believer: Can't see any reason why the section needs archiving/hiding but if it makes you happy go ahead. Theroadislong (talk) 06:54, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
