Talk:Thief (film)

Information on this page says that Frank Hohimer is the pen name of someone named John Seybold. This is clearly inaccurate. Frank "Francis" Hohimer was a real person who actually was a jewel thief. His exploits were widely known as he was, for a time, a suspect in the murder of Chicago area resident Valerie Percy, who was the daughter of then GOP senate candidate Charles Percy. This fact was widely publicized in Chicago area newspapers in the 1970s, which reported that Hohimer was in prison on unrelated charges. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thedps1998 (talk • contribs) 14:08, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

This movie won a Stinker Award for Most Intrusive Musical Score for 1981 at the 5th 1982 Stinkers Bad Movie Awards
This movie won a Stinker Award for Most Intrusive Musical Score for 1981 at the 5th 1982 Stinkers Bad Movie Awards, and I've added that into this article twice. But someone - you know who you are - has reverted it both times, dissmissing IMDb as "...is not a reliable source".

Well, in that case, I wonder why 99% of all movies here at Wiki have a reference link at bottom to their respective IMDb sites, if they're not trustworthy...!

I referenced to this excellent site, owned by Amazon (company) (reliable?), that has no more faults than Wiki - and both of which I edit on a regular basis, which has worked fine for me most of the time for 25 years now, like this one;

"...as well as winning a Stinker Award for Most Intrusive Musical Score for 1981 at the 5th 1982 Stinkers Bad Movie Awards. "

(The Preview of References looked better yesterday...)

So, all I'm asking is - why isn't IMDb seen as a "reliable source" by this individual, and is his opinion shared by the powers that be? And why am I the bad guy here, being threatened to lose my "edition privileges" (which are pointless to me if one, arrogant know-it-all is worth more than an IMDb page that the world can scrutinize...?!?
