JFK (film)[edit]

I am requesting any input, comments, suggestions, etc. to improve on this article. Count Ringworm 16:34, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My 2 cents:

  • "which purports to follow the 1967 to 1969 investigation led by New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison (played by Kevin Costner) as he investigates the assassination of President Kennedy. " Run-on, and whenever you dicuss rumour, please get a citation.
  • you need more in-line citations.
  • Expand your lead per WP:LEAD.
  • The first line in "About the film" looks very much like, if not containing the exact information from the first sentence of the lead.
  • "FK stars Kevin Costner, Gary Oldman (as Lee Harvey Oswald), Ron Rifkin, Donald Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, Tommy Lee Jones, Laurie Metcalf, Jay O. Sanders, Sissy Spacek, Sally Kirkland, Joe Pesci.." Don't list these people her! You already do in the infobox.
  • " Stone directed it..." Stone who?

This needs a lot of work. The errors shouldn't be to hard to find. Once you eliminate obvious errors, I'l help. Just leave a talk message. Evan(Salad dressing is the milk of the infidel!) 19:48, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Lose the Trivia section. Notable facts can be integrated into more encyclopedic parts of the article (production, etc) The JPStalk to me 19:46, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I've been working away at paring down that section. I created a new one, Historical Inaccuracies which took a few of the trivia bits away. Count Ringworm 20:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Historical Inaccuracies would need changing from list into prose etc., or it would be seen as another trivia section. LuciferMorgan 03:26, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
