so-called "Unnecessary POV interpretation" in Sherlock Holmes (2009 film)
The language I put into the 52% figure was not "unnecessary POV interpretation", it was important language for a couple reasons:

1. Bare numbers and figures are not appropriate style for an encyclopedia. Numbers are sometimes nice, but it is actually the numbers and statistics themselves that are unnecessary in an encyclopedia, and the written interpretations of the numbers that are required.

2. The language balances out the interpretation in the first sentence claiming the film garnered "generally positive" reviews. Jumping into a claim of "generally positive reviews" with a sentence pointing out the film has received only 52% positive reviews from notable critics is obviously a poorly written paragraph, there needs to be some segue between the first sentence and the later sentence, because the later sentence obviously contradicts the first. If you don't insert a sort of "however" in between the two claims, the whole paragraph just reads like a complete jumbled mess.

Please be a bit more thoughtful in your edits, don't just look at a single sentence when determining if an edit is valuable, look at how it fits into the article as a whole. Articles on wikipedia are just that: articles, not mere collections of random sentences jumbled poorly into an illogical mess. MarcelB612 (talk) 09:42, 5 January 2010 (UTC)


 * A simply "only" would have sufficed. It's the same concept as WP:PEACOCK, only in reverse. »S0CO ( talk 14:41, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
