 * Ok, I will first make it constructive and edit at one go before I add them back here. Thanks for pointing out. User:DarrenSavio 23:38, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at The Great Wall (film), without citing a reliable source using an inline citation that clearly supports the material. The burden is on the person wishing to keep in the material to meet these requirements, as a necessary (but not always sufficient) condition. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.  City O f  Silver  19:03, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

 * First of all the source is already in the "box office" section. There's an entire paragraph writing about the film's loss of $75 million theatrically with a reliable source. We don't need an additional source at the top since it's just an overview of the main body. Second, i was going to provide another reliable source because it's a big claim and we need big proof until you removed you and I had to add it again, and third just because a movie made twice its production budget doesn't mean its a hit. I guess you're new to all these budget and box office realm. So lemme give u a small presentation; Box office = $301 million, production budget = $150 million ($80 million spent on global P&A by Universal Pictures). North American total will not be more than $40 million (current $36 million). So that means 50-50 split gives us $20 million. The film made over $170 million in China. Split ratio there is 25/75 but since it's a co-production, that means a 40/50 per Chinese rules, so $75 million from China. The rest of the international markets leaves us with around $95 million, and a 50/50 split gives us around $48 million. So now the real math (counting the net revenue deducted from the gross revenue) – $20 million + $75 million + $48 million = $143 million. Total production budget (sans tax rebates) = $230 million. So $230 million minus $143 million gives us a loss of $87 million. But since box office pundits argue that the total gross will end up at $320 million, the loss will be lesser, coming down to – as stated in the links – between $70–75 million. No hard feelings but I have been analysing box office for over 5 years so I know what these guys are saying and I authenticate them myself before writing them in wikipedia. I respect wikipedia and would not do anything out of the ordinary to add rubbish claims. Thank you.
