Bidirectional

I'll not revert your current edits at the Firefly actors' pages; I'm sad that the state of discussion of the topic is so scattered and in my opinion inconclusive, but I can't muster the energy required to try to gather and link all that discussion into something centralized and coherent. It deserves the attention, but I just can't give it. The consequence for you is that you'll continue to get startled reactions from editors who have no sensible, well-discussed central document to read, which will really explain the fractious and bumpy history of what you're doing. --Lexein (talk) 21:57, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Yeah - maybe there should be something at the project documenting the historical consensus. --Rob Sinden (talk) 10:47, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Return (2011 film)

There's being pointy, and that's what you're doing, reverting while discussion is ongoing. That's just really shitty behavior, and it's a bad example for new editors. What is your goddamn deal? Why can't you ever just let discussion take its few-days course? --Lexein (talk) 10:34, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Consensus and guidelines are against exec producers in infoboxes. There is no field for exec producers. We do not include them. They should only be included if the guideline is changed. The claim that the exec producers are notable is irrelevant, as there is no place for them in the infobox. Even Spielberg doesn't get infobox inclusion. That there is an ongoing discussion (which is not in favour of inclusion) does not mean they should stay. We go with the current guideline. --Rob Sinden (talk) 10:40, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Bodily Fluids Triptych

I'm just wondering if Christopher Nolan is allowed a template as such, despite me including much of what Nolan has in terms of format, then why isn't McQueen allowed one? --Bartallen2 (talk) 14:45, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

McQueen has a template at Template:Steve McQueen (director). --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:46, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

As so does, Nolan; the only differentiation is that someone recently placed McQueen's art work in the film's he directed, thus the change at hand. Plus, the template I created is entirely different due to the fact it's highlighting a trilogy of films, similar to Nolan's The Dark Knight Trilogy template. --Bartallen2 (talk) 15:01, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

All artworks of McQueen, whether film or otherwise, can (and should) be grouped together in a single template. The "trilogy" of which you speak is not notable in itself, as it was coined last week in a single Guardian article. And the topics you wish to introduce are too broad for a single template. Sex, love, Provisional IRA, etc. And it falls foul of many other navbox guidelines, as I've explained on the talk page. But if you have any further questions, please ask. --Rob Sinden (talk) 15:08, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

This should make life easier for you...
