Only one source[edit]

Although I did cite a single source for the edit I made, I did not take the liberty of removing the flag for additional citation needed. I am aware of another source for this content, and will edit as needed once I've obtained that source, and cite it accordingly. Malcom Gregory Scott (talk) 22:31, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Overlisting[edit]

I boldly deleted the long list of imdb links to non-notable Dreamlanders and non-Dreamlanders. Let me know if it's a problem to anyone.

Bio tag?[edit]

I question the need for a bio project tag. It's almost impossible to get biographical info on Dreamlanders. Any objection?Mike P ^(WHAT?) 21:31, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong link[edit]

The "Jean Hill" is linked to the wrong person.

Danny Mills and the Dreamlanders[edit]

This statement: "Some would consider Danny Mills to be a Dreamlander despite only appearing in the 1972 film Pink Flamingos" raises more questions than it answers. Mills is certainly an important figure in the John Waters filmography—after all, he had a major role in Pink Flamingos, which arguably is Waters' most seminal feature and undoubtedly represents a watershed event in his career. Mills is at least as recognizable as Susan Lowe.

This seems to beg the question: Who, exactly, uses the term "Dreamlanders"? Where did the criteria for membership (that is, having to have appeared in more than one John Waters film) come from? If only "some" consider Mills to be a Dreamlander, then does this imply some dispute as to Mills' status? If so, who are the people involved in this dispute? And if there is no authority who can determine once and for all which actors qualify as Dreamlanders, then is it a real classification, or just a conceit used among those who write about cult films? If the latter, does it actually merit its own Wikipedia entry?

I hate to seem overly critical, but the article does seem unnecessarily vague. Rangergordon (talk) 10:08, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You ask a lot of questions. You are free to edit the article as is any other user. Mjpresson (talk) 15:54, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Design students[edit]

Is there a cite or an example of "design students from Johns Hopkins University"? There is no design program/major at Hopkins, thus no "design students." Maybe the article meant to say the Maryland Institute College of Art? Furthermore, none of the listed "Dreamlanders" have any association with Hopkins. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.242.99.94 (talk) 03:23, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
