Talk:The Producers

Untitled
The bot that retrofitted the heading "Untitled" at 13:36, 12 July 2010‎ admittedly has done the service of reminding negligent colleagues that talk contribs are more effective, and more addressable, when they follow a heading that hints at what aspect of the article is under discussion; sadly bots are weak at sussing out the meanings of contribs. --Jerzy•t 05:56, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Where does this take place in? 1940s? 1950s? OR 1960s? --PJ Pete
 * The original film had a contemporary setting (i.e. 1968). Oddly, the much later musical had a retro setting in the 50s, presumably so it could excise the "dated" material about hippies.--Pharos 06:24, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * You've provided a hint that may be helpful to a colleague's further research, but not that's not info usable in the article w/o knowing a reliable source that can be verified as having said so. --Jerzy•t 05:56, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I heard that both movies are based in either 1958 or 1959. gameplaya  3:16 1 Arpil 2007 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.198.106.63 (talk) 19:17, 1 April 2007‎
 * A less attractive hint than that of Pharos, bcz you've intentionally or ignorantly obscured your record as an WP editor, and bcz your description suggests you had no reason to believe the oral source you imply relying on is even likely to be reliable. --Jerzy•t 05:56, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah! Missed that: and bcz you implicitly claim to be a legitimated registered user, by attributing your IP edit to a blocked username. I dunno if guidelines say doing that is an aggravated offense of vandalism, but IMO they should, bcz it takes a specific effort, and creates the false appearance that the doer either has never been blocked, or has behaved well enough for that the block to has been lifted. --Jerzy•t 20:23, 1 &, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
