Superman and the Mole Men[edit]

I tried to add Superman and the Mole Men as the first item in the Theatrical Features section but got an error "An automated filter has identified this edit as potentially unconstructive"

The entry was similar to other entries. I copy / pasted another entry and modified the details

Orphaned references in Superman in film[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Superman in film's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
