Notability

edit

Notability must be asserted by finding news sources and including content from them on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Notability (films) for further details. Stating that there must be sources out there is not the same thing as including them as evidence on a Wikipedia page.Jeremy112233 (talk) 21:11, 2 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

If this continues I will likely be requesting article protection, due to persistent IP-vandalism. Jeremy112233 (talk) 21:57, 2 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
Except that you clearly have absolutely no idea what Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes are. These two sites compile REVIEWS from NOTABLE SOURCES. That's what the entire FUNCTION of the sites is. They are not "movie indexes" like IMDb. If a movie has pages on Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes, THAT MOVIE IS NOTABLE. A simple click on the Metacritic link here will display reviews from Slant Magazine, The New York Times, Village Voice and Time Out New York. METACRITIC ATTESTS TO THIS FILM'S NOTABILITY. And reverting your edits is not "vandalism", just like "non-notable" is not "I haven't heard of it".--76.106.245.93 (talk) 22:40, 2 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
External links are not the same thing as references. And including a site where references might be is not the same thing as using content from a reliable source to support your content.Jeremy112233 (talk) 22:55, 2 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
External links are more than enough to demonstrate notability. Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes state right on their pages what the New York Times and other sources said about this film, which vouches for its notability. The film has already been proven notable, so your continuing to place notability tags on it is simply asperger syndrome-fueled stubbornness and a steadfast refusal to admit that you were wrong.--76.106.245.93 (talk) 05:10, 3 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
I'd appreciate you not introducing uncivil language into this debate. Regardless, you might want to add the sources you claim exist instead of spending that time fighting against basic Wikipedia policy--you need references to support your text. Jeremy112233 (talk) 13:06, 3 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Expansion

edit

This article is way too short and needs to be expanded in more detail. The plot is way too short and should be expanded with its name changed from synopsis to plot. Also information on the film's production and reception needs to be expanded as well.--Paleface Jack (talk) 15:49, 23 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
