Stephen Silver (23 July 2019). "'Once Upon A Time In Hollywood' Wikipedia Entry Repeatedly Vandalized With False Plot Summary". Inquisitr. Retrieved 24 July 2019. Days before it arrives, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood has set off a very strange battle on, of all places, Wikipedia. And it has shown what the limitations are of Wikipedia as a source of information.
Adi Robertson (30 July 2019). "A Wikipedia spoiler war created a ridiculous fake ending for Once Upon A Time In Hollywood". The Verge. Retrieved 31 July 2019. And on Wikipedia, an invaluable source of movie synopses, this gap gave rise to a heated edit war with its own odd twist. Nobody was supposed to reveal Once Upon A Time In Hollywood's ending. So somebody on Wikipedia made one up.
Tom Nicholson (31 July 2019). "There's Been A Huge Fight Over The 'Once Upon A Time In Hollywood' Wiki Page". Esquire (magazine). Retrieved 1 August 2019. Over the last few weeks, the bloody retribution of Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction has been played out on Wikipedia. To explain why, we'll have to spool back a couple of months.
Eric Francisco (26 July 2019). "Tarantino Finally Embraces Sentimentality in 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood'". Inverse (website). Retrieved 5 August 2019. For two days, the Wikipedia page for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood had wildly incorrect plot summary that was so completely wrong that it was hard to tell if it was a troll on an earlier version, a misleading edit by someone associated with the movie, or both.
Kate Erbland (7 August 2019). "'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood': Why the Brad Pitt and Bruce Lee Fight Is Confusing Moviegoers". IndieWire. Retrieved 8 August 2019. In illustrating another point about the limits of Wikipedia, journalist Scott Meslow pointed out a salient argument involving 'Hollywood,' one that continues to take shape on the film's Wikipedia page, which can be edited by anyone. As Meslow notes, one edit says that Cliff 'remembers' fighting Lee, while another changes it to 'daydreams about.'

Improved to Good Article status by Some Dude From North Carolina (talk). Self-nominated at 16:21, 11 November 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Interesting hook is backed up by sourcing here, but I don't see this mentioned within the article anywhere. Otherwise, the article was promoted to GA just yesterday and has no obvious copyvio issues. As this is your second nomination to DYK, no QPQ is required. ❯❯❯ Mccunicano ☕️ 07:58, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ ❯❯❯ Mccunicano☕️ I have just added the fact under the "Filming" subsection in the article. I hope that addresses the issue. Some Dude From North Carolina^{wanna talk?} 13:53, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Great, this is good to go. ❯❯❯ Mccunicano ☕️ 15:23, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

section on murdering Manson's cult

This section has very little to do with the movie. It's a restatement of the Manson case. Needs trimming to only what they have to do with the film. 50.111.44.55 (talk) 17:34, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
