The African Queen inflluence?
Has anyone noticed how this is more similar to "The African Queen" in terms of plot? Visokor (talk) 07:35, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
 * It seems closer to "POC: On Stranger Tides" or the Indiana Jones series than it does to "African Queen" which was more of an escape movie set on a river rather than a treasure hunt. "River of No Return" or the "River Wild" has similar settings as African Queen. The overall plot is pretty much a composite of many other treasure hunters/adventure movies.

Hi User:PNW Raven! Kindly see Special:Diff/1037767726 and Special:Diff/1037968288, and please comment before making an unexplained change. Thanks! M. Billoo 15:26, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
 * It was too minor of a change to warrant a discussion, and was only to clarify that Joachim's actions were not two-fold. He only freed the conquistadors for the purpose of getting their assistance. The way it was worded sounded as if his freeing them was a separate act, but then in addition to that, he also asked for their help.PNW Raven (talk) 18:05, 11 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Thank you so much for guiding me for making it my first work as WP:GA. Also thanks to other fellow editors. M. Billoo 03:50, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

Did you know nomination

 * thanks to you both for appreciating, and congrats on further taking it to DYK. Since I have contributed mostly from my mobile device, there are links which open as mobile version giving "AMP"; I agree that URLs be reduced to original working forms. M. Billoo 03:50, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi! I have corrected the links by removing AMP from them, as you suggested. But now I am unable to use #IABot as it says, "Analysis error: You have been blocked from editing". Kindly use it if possible (CC: and admin ), Thanks! M. Billoo 09:19, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your contributions! There are some concerns I wanted to share. Kindly check and comment, Thanks! M. Billoo 18:28, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Per WP:FILMCAST, only billed cast are briefed in bullets. The non-billed cast, regardless of their popularity or notability, were briefed in a prose instead. Film poster can clarify the billed cast.
 * Per WP:OVERLINK, countries name should not be linked; here, in case, London and Germany.
 * Some names are not notable in the plot, like "Francisco Lopez de Heredia, Aguierre's cartographer"; this is already briefed in the cast section.
 * You wrote, "After failing to find the tree after three centuries, Frank allowed the arrowhead to go to a museum as an artifact, and became a tour guide." In my opinion, the artifact was protected by the daughter of the dying chief in 1556, away from the jungle. Later, it was founded by someone else, not Frank. So then it was kept in London museum from where Lily steals centuries later. So, what is meant by "Frank allowed the arrowhead to go"?
 * You wrote, "Meanwhile, Prince Joachim locates the conquistadors, petrified inside a cave. He brings them within sight of the river and they are reanimated, though fused with elements of jungle plants and animals. They agree to find the arrowhead for him in exchange for flowers of the tree, and track down the Houghtons." In my opinion, Joachim "brings" (or distributes) the river flow by an explosion to the petrified ones, "after" partially reviving them; on only a conditional offer, worth mentioning, as Joachim uses it for his own interest as he later betrayed them. Again, no need of defining their appearance as it is already briefed below.
 * Last, you wrote, "Current wordcount 695." You may check the previous version also, before it was overexpanded by some anonymous user.

Hi, thanks for your contributions. Kindly see above message here. Also, you recently removed alt text for the poster in infobox; see further above in GA nomination, it was included there. Thanks! M. Billoo 11:32, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Since when did this website include alternative descriptions to movie posters? I'm just asking here. Also, the plot didn't mention that the conquistadors had their partially-decomposed bodies fused with their respectful aspect of the Amazon rainforest until now. --Rtkat3 (talk) 19:15, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi, . Sorry. I got logged out of my account, and could not get back in until today. I have edited MANY film plots and cast summaries on here since joining (mostly to correct grammar), and that was the first and only article, of literally dozens of article's I've seen, where the cast section looked like that. It was borderline unreadable, a big chunk of text with sentences that ran on, had no conjunctions, and had tenses all mixed up. Trying to find out who played what in that block of text was cumbersome and unnecessarily difficult. Far cleaner just to keep it a simple bulleted list. I will review the article and see if I can improve the grammar, and if there is a way to be more accurate while still keeping it concise. But I do not have time tonight, as I am getting ready for several events at the school I teach at. Thanks!

 * Hi, good day! I have no problem with the grammar corrections. But I just tried to say here that there is no need of those details in the Plot section which are already defined in the Cast section. Also, I tried to explain the billed cast vs the supporting cast, as this film doesn't have all as in ensemble cast to be mentioned in bullets. Since I do not consider myself senior to you, I will leave this to, the one who reviewed this article and passed for GA. Thanks! M. Billoo 06:45, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm sure my help is not needed. WP:FILMCAST says the billed cast should be in bullet points with the rest in a paragraph of prose. That's how many articles are formatted including Baby Driver, Bad Times at the El Royale, and the entirety of the MCU. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 01:49, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Very well. But I had never seen it before now, and I still think it makes the article clunky, less clean and organized, and difficult to read. It makes it hard to find who played which character, too. However, I will not change the credits on this article again, since I have been outvoted and do not want to be accused of edit warring/disruptive editing. Personally, I think that rule in the guidelines at some point needs a very serious review. Other "Good articles" of Disney films such as Toy Story, Toy Story 2, Toy Story 3, A Bug's Life, The Good Dinosaur, WALL-E, to name a few, and "good articles" of other films such as Shrek have their full casts written in nice neat bullet points (Wall-E's has some overly long explanation added which may need to be edited/removed, and I noticed someone messed up Shrek's plot summary with run on sentences again, so that also will need to be addressed. However, the cast lists haven't been reformatted in years, so those points/recent edits are not relevant to the issue at hand.) I will only address the grammar on this article from now on, but I do think someone with more time than I have at the moment really needs to revisit/seriously challenge that rule. Lists are obviously far more neat than blocks of text when trying to explain information that is in a series/needs to be tabulated to show connections. That is just plain common sense, I think.
