Rudolph Valentino was one of the huge stars of the era of silent films, and still a iconic figure a hundred years later. Hisreputation rests on his roles in fourteen films, including The Sheik (1921), The Young Rajah (1922), The Eagle (1925), The Son of the Sheik (1926). This list has been split off from the main Valentino article, overhauled, re-written and is now in line with MoS strictures. Any and all comments are welcome. – SchroCat (talk) 18:13, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from SNUGGUMS
  • The lead seems somewhat incomplete when none of his "lost" films are even mentioned by name. It would help to include at least ones with their own articles. Also, it would help to include something on the levels of critical and commercial success his films had. Snuggums (talk / edits) 21:02, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll add some details on the critical and commercial success shortly, but I'm not sure we need to add details of the lost films, especially as he was an uncredited extra in most of them. - SchroCat (talk) 10:04, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've added more detail for the background covering the repute and box office info, as well as some info on the LoC National Film Registry entries, which give a modern measure of their repute. Many thanks for your thoughts on this. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 12:47, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Many thanks SNUGGUMS; good comments and the article has certainly been strengthened because of them. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 07:26, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Need alt text on all of them. They are otherwise appropriately licensed on Commons and of good, clear quality. — Maile (talk) 22:09, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll add alt text, but it doesn't need to be added, although it is good practice. - SchroCat (talk) 10:04, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's one opinion: others may differ and it's not a point that is insisted upon at either FAC or FLC. Having said that. I'll repeat that I do intend to do this shortly. – SchroCat (talk) 17:55, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Now added - many thanks. - SchroCat (talk) 12:47, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

;Quick comment
  • Why is My Official Wife's year indicated as 1941 when he died fifteen years earlier? And if it was released that year, then why is it listed first rather than last on the table with an indication of a posthumous release?

  • Cheers Birdienest81: it was a typo for 1914. Cheers – SchroCat (talk) 19:03, 15 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: I think the list is perfect. Great job.
