Repeating links
Our Manual of style says: "Generally, a link should appear only once in an article, but if helpful for readers, a link may be repeated ... at the first occurrence after the lead." Please do not add excess links to a previously linked name or word. Thanks! -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:06, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Flag carrier, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

Thanks for your work on Sia articles recently. I'm not sure if you've had any experience promoting pages to Good article status or not, but you might consider expanding and nominating a Sia entry or two for Good article status, if interested. Either way, happy editing! I'm not sure I'll be able to see Music in a theater, unfortunately, but I'm looking forward to the soundtrack. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:51, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Music intro
The first paragraph of the intro should not have refs. Per WP:LEAD, the information there should all be expanded upon in the body of the article, and that is where the refs should go. Also, it is not a good idea to pile up four refs in a row. Usually one good ref is adequate, or two at the most, if the sentence makes two points that are referenced in separate refs. If a fact is so controversial that it needs more than two refs to verify it, then it probably needs more than one sentence to discuss it. By the way, please stop adding in that the role is Ziegler's first "starring role". Her role in The Book of Henry was arguably a starring role, and in any case, it certainly is not one of the key facts about this film. All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:09, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Ssilvers: Understood, thank you. Although, it looks like I can't make edits to the page anymore... - Peterpie123rww (talk) 12:07, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- The page is protected until Feb. 20. Then the protection will be removed. Here are the major problems that I see with the article now:
- "overwhelmingly" negative reviews. Megacritic says "generally" negative reviews.
- My recollection is that some of the material in the Critical Response section goes beyond what the review actually says, for example. Would you please review them over the next week to make sure that we haven't added opinions and analysis to what the reviews actually say, or just tangential fluff. The Slate review quotes a bunch of non-noteworthy stuff and should be trimmed, especially this: " more about Zu than the titular character." So what? Also, it veers from "she" to "they". I see that we are missing the positive reviews in "Irish Times" and "Screen-space" that are quoted at Rotten Tomatoes. I think the Variety review also ought to be mentioned, perhaps instead of one of the other less important ones.
- Box office should go after the Critical Response section, or even lower. Box Office info is not very helpful because of COVID and the mostly video release. In any case, Box Office Mojo may continue to update the info.
- In the "Portrayal of autism section" we write: "...as well as having made several comments in interviews leading up to the film's release which objectified autistic people.[82][83]. It's someone's opinion that Sia's comments objectified autistic people. Cut it, or say whose opinion it was.
- [56][85][86] Again, do you need 3 refs? 1 or 2 should be able to verify the facts.
- Third paragraph: "... and CommunicationFIRST, all made a joint press release". "all" is redundant. They "made a joint press release" means that they all did it.
- "declaring the film to be dangerous after the "movie team [failed] to address recommendations to protect autistic people". Actually, the press release just says that "physical restraint" is dangerous, not the whole movie. This is a case where the headline is misleading. Also note that they did not see the film.
- "Jane Harris, speaking for the National Autistic Society." It should be noted that this is a British society.
- I think we should remove this clause: "were concerned by the suggestion that an autistic person wouldn’t be able to cope in the role of the autistic lead character". This shows that the writer does not know what they are talking about. First of all, Sia wrote the film with Ziegler in mind. Second, all the people who complained about the casting did not explain who in the community they thought could have been found to play the role of a 14-year-old who could both act the role and dance Heffington's complex choreography. Not a realistic complaint.
I think it's a mistake to engage with the IP on the artidle's Talk page. I think everyone should just acknowledge that they are an inveterate edit warrior and likely a sockpuppet. Note that the first thing they did was start an RfC, the Wikipedia equivalent of crying for your mommy when you don't get your way. New editors don't start RfC's but sockpuppets do. Anyhow, if you want to raise any of this on the Talk page, I will support you there.
All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:57, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- I have been stalking the page for a couple of weeks. I recommend reading WP:AGF. Just because a new IP editor knows about RfC's doesn't mean they are a sock. Afootpluto (talk) 18:47, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- WP:AGF clearly says: "This guideline does not require that editors continue to assume good faith in the presence of obvious evidence to the contrary." In this case, the editor to whom we refer has demonstrated over and over that they do not edit in good faith, by edit warring from the get-go, editing against consensus and failing to wait for a consensus before reverting to their preferred version. Their behavior makes me confident that they are a sock, but even if not they do not deserve the assumption of good faith. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:47, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
A thanks
Welcome to wikipedia and thanks for all the great work you've done over multiple articles! You're a true asset. I would like to drop you a quick note to please not repeatedly delete the same well-cited content more than once. If you find yourself removing well-sourced info you've previously removed, that means your change was controversial and you should use the talk page to explain your reason for the change, not just repeatedly reinstate your change. But again, welcome aboard and glad to have you!Feoffer (talk) 18:51, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Feoffer: Whilst I respect the well-sourced information, the lead section should be kept for select, concise information. Detail on the criticism is unnecessary; there is a whole section on this later in the main body of the page. - Peterpie123rww (talk) 19:17, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Music 2021
Please do not use misleading edit summaries when making changes to Wikipedia pages. This behavior is viewed as disruptive, and continuation may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you.
Here you reverted an edit you had previously reverted for being unsourced. The re-addition of it was challenging that claim (it was already sourced) while providing an additional source that more directly correlates. Reverting again with an edit summary simply saying "fix" obscures this act as perhaps simply being maintenance, and is not a reason for re-reverting. 188.220.86.46 (talk) 13:27, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Do feel free to show me where in the article it says that Sia "made several controversial comments about autistic people in interviews leading up to the film's release" - Peterpie123rww (talk) 13:30, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- It is frankly quite obviously a paraphrasing of the situation.
- Some more pertinent bits, although honestly stripping them out of context is rather counterproductive, which is why paraphrasing as opposed to quoting is more suitable.
- Sia fought back, saying at one point, “Duh. I spent three f***ing years researching, I think that’s why I’m so f***ing bummed.”
- Sia replied, “Maybe you’re just a bad actor.”
- The included tweet from Marlee Matlin also provides some perspective:
- Dear @Sia, With respect as a fellow artist, is this the kind of response you want people to see when discussing such an important topic such as people with Autism? Please don't be deaf to what they have to say. Marlee Matlin
- And from the other two sources linked to that statement:
- Many accused Sia of making assumptions about people with autism, and not searching for actors.
- the Grammy nominee was accused of ableism.
- She adds, "We are particularly alarmed that Sia has said it would be 'cruel' to cast a nonspeaking autistic person as an actor. It suggests that she thinks that autistic people don’t understand our own lives and aren’t the people who should be telling our own stories. When people tell stories about autism that cut out an autistic point of view, when storytellers view us as objects to tell inspirational stories about, or when autism is treated as a narrative device rather than as a disability community full of real people, the stories that are told fall flat, don’t speak to our reality, and are often harmful to us."
- You could also even expand the statement to note her controversial comment about SW's:
- People further criticized her for diminishing sex workers as “f***ing prostitutes.”
- ----
- Furthermore, even if you don't agree that the sentence represents the sources appropriately, reverting it and simply labeling your edit as "fix" is not appropriate. 188.220.86.46 (talk) 13:53, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
