2007

I would like to state that before MasterA113 edited the page from Rocket Man (film) to RocketMan, that I created the original article. on 17:54 (UTC), 3 June 2006. I also worked on most of the introduction and plot, as well.

Unfortunately, due the edit of the name change, all other revisions on the edit page of the previous Rocket Man (film) article are lost. -- Mr. Sinistar 01:05, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How can you proove it was a flop?

the article says that it was a flop only grossing above 15 million. yet it says nothing about its budget!75.67.128.65 16:32, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find anything about the movie's budget on the Internet, however I'm pretty sure it was a very low budget film, considering the "cheesey" special effects and content. --Mr. Sinistar 19:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Rocketman 1j.JPG

Image:Rocketman 1j.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Name

I reverted this move of the article, as most of the cited sources, IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes call it "RocketMan"; the New York Times doesn't use the Camel Case but does omit the space.[1] At any rate, the Camel Case version distinguishes the article from the other articles named Rocket Man with WP:NATURALDIS. It may be worth a discussion, especially considering the recent creation of the film The Rocket Man, though the latter is very obscure.--Cúchullain ^t/c 18:28, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I thought IMDB was user-edited? ... as I said with print sources mixed between RocketMan Rocketman and Rocket Man WP:MOSTM would seem to indicate use normal caps and spacing. In ictu oculi (talk) 18:53, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, CamelCase is specifically mentioned as an acceptable editors' choice by WP:MOSTM. In this case the article has been at this title for years, and using it serves as NATURALDIS as no other article uses this spelling. From what I can tell, more sources called this movie "RocketMan" than "Rocket Man". Taking the still-available professional reviews from Rotten Tomatoes (which like IMDB uses "RocketMan"), the following use "RocketMan",[2][3][4][5][6] while "Rocketman" is used by EW[7][8] and the New York Times,[9] and none use "Rocket Man".--Cúchullain ^t/c 19:26, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Citation and Expansion

As a huge fan of this film and advocate for fully expanded articles, I'm kind of sad that this article is in the state that its in. It's underdeveloped/undersourced, and needs signification attention. I would do it myself but unfortunately I'm going to be way too busy working on non-Wikipiedia projects possibly extending into Summer. This article needs to be expanded, with ALL sections expended to their fullest extent and each piece of information given proper citations from reliable sources. Hopefully someone comes along and gives this article the attention it needs fulfill its full potential.--Paleface Jack 00:06, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
