Thanks
Thanks, I didn't know how to do that. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 18:36, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Can we just slow it down on the edits to Scream? Any GA reviewer is going to look at the history and think its unstable and just fail it. After it fails or passes go nuts.Darkwarriorblake (talk) 19:06, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * In my eyes you're making plenty sweeping changes, removing the crit reception box - If RT and MC aren;t the only ones I don't know what else there is but RT especially does do the job of collecting together a wide variety of reviews, so whether it be the end of or not, it is probably the biggest entity doing what it does and what it does is pretty important for the sake of any critical reception section. And the collapsing of the Soundtrack tables, I've been looking through a few GA this afternoon and those that have a soundtrack don't have them collapsed, only one I found that did was Saw 3D, so I assume that isn't a rule, its a personal stylistic decision.  There are also GA that use album art that resembles the poster but isn't the poster.  It's removal may be demanded at FAC level but I doubt it would have caused issue here.  As for prose, you're probably right, I don't read it as I'm writing it, I just type as it comes to me and it will sound right in my head and as I know how it was intended, it sounds right reading it.  I took your advice and requested a copyedit guild thingy.  Whether or not Ruhrfisch has much experience with film articles, he/she has a lot of FA under him/her and I'm willing to take his guidelines seriously, which mention some prose issues.

Of course it may be the matter that there is just a lot of GA that need to be removed from GA status. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 20:44, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Leatherface
If you don't mind me asking, why did you change the image of Leatherface from the original film to the sequel? Was it because it shows him holding a chainsaw?--CyberGhostface (talk) 02:42, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks.--CyberGhostface (talk) 02:58, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Jason Voorhees
What you want to write off as "continuity errors" are retcons. In the first movie, it was canon that Jason drowned. The second movie modified this to that he did not drown. Per director Tom McLoughlin, he decided while writing Jason Lives that Jason did drown and had always been a supernatural force. If the directors are consciously aware of prior narrative and decide to alter it, that is not a continuity error, by the very definition of the word "error." I fail to see how a character having his backstory retconned at least twice does not warrant a mention in the opening paragraphs, especially if restrained to a brief sentence addressing the fact.209.34.28.236 (talk) 01:05, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Homicide: Life on the Street (season 1)
Hey Bignole, it's Hunter. You commented a bit at the Homicide: Life on the Street (season 1) FAC. I was hoping maybe you could find the time to conduct a full review over there? I believe the article is just about ready for FA, but there hasn't been much in the way of comments yet at the FAC, and I'm starting to worry it will fail due to inactivity. If you can, I'd much appreciate it. Thanks! —  Hun ter   Ka  hn  19:41, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Smallville (season 10)
The average reader doesn't know the classic Superman status quo of Clark, Lois, Jimmy and Perry? Really?? Nevertheless, it's not big enough to argue over, so I'll relent. But really ... the average reader doesn't know the classic Superman status quo?? 75.147.119.213 (talk) 19:14, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
