Book URLs[edit]
@Kingsif: the book URLs are online; why don't you use them? I added one. Yoninah (talk) 13:54, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Lead[edit]
- "It was produced by Sound Masters, Inc. for the Creole Petroleum Corporation (part of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey) and directed by John H. "Jack" Tobin." - this needs to be mentioned in the production section
- "It is part of the Prelinger Archives and available in the public domain.[2]" - this sentence and its acconymping citation should be copied into the Production section
- References should really be avoided in the lead if they are no quotes per MOS:CITELEAD
Synopsis[edit]
- "Jim is a middle-level oil engineer who is being relocated to Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela, with his family; wife Ann and two sons." - what was the reason given?
- "Jim is taken on a tour of Maracaibo, Caracas, and Lagunillas to familiarize him with the new country, shown as positive;" - think the text in bold can be reworded to make sense or deleted if it does not add anything to the article
- "all having learnt Spanish already." - beforehand.
Production[edit]
- "The film is color" - is in color
- "The film is color and 24 minutes in length." - this needs a referenced to verify that this is correct
Analysis[edit]

- "with scholar Lisa Blackmore describing the propaganda and national image of that time having distinct dual purposes:" - as having
- Delink Americans per MOS:OVERLINK
- "Tinker also suggests that anything learnt from the lessons and film were quickly forgotten," - what lessons?
- Briefly explain who Erin Giannini to the uninformed
- Done three of these: I've left the link to United States on 'Americans' - Venezuelans, Colombians, etc. are technically Americans, and the US has no better demonym, so the disambiguation is necessary - and I've haven't added anything about lessons - they are described in the sentence before, I don't think a reader will have forgotten that quickly.

- "which were easier to acquire rights to;" - to acquire the rights
- "which she believes Assignment: Venezuela shows very clearly." - disnictly
- Please explain briefly who Chris Morgan to the uninformed
References[edit]
- References 2 and 7 should have the work that does not mention Archives
- Reference 7 is missing the volume and issue number
