Rotten Tomatoes
See: Review aggregators and also consider the external links guidelines. Opencooper (talk) 08:21, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

And please notice that the template is called Rotten Tomatoes. Debresser (talk) 05:31, 9 January 2017 (UTC)


 * He, did you hear me? The template is "Rotten Tomatoes", not "rotten-tomatoes"! Debresser (talk) 21:56, 7 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Did this change at some point? Honestly, I was mostly just copying what was already here when I started adding them in, but I do see there appears to only be one template page available: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Rotten_Tomatoes . BTW that template page seems like it has some incorrect information, it suggests the template will link to "http://" not "https://". It does seem to link to https, which is what, as far as I know, is required according to Rotten Tomatoes licensing, but I thought I would point it out. I will remember to use this template instead in the future.--LudaChrisKlein (talk) 09:41, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Rotten Tomatoes, Box Office Mojo, Metacritic
It's great that you're adding these links to articles that don't already have them. However, please do not place them as External links in articles where they already appear in the References footnotes. It's redundant and violates WP:LINKFARM. Thanks for your work making Wikipedia better! --Tenebrae (talk) 18:28, 3 June 2017 (UTC)


 * did you get the message above? or understand what is being said? JarrahTree 01:22, 13 July 2017 (UTC)


 * I did, and I certainly understand why this would be the case in many situations. Is there a way to link information to a link in the external links section instead? It seems to me that Rotten Tomatoes references are often invariably linked to the date and time of retrieval and thus somewhat distinct from the "external link" to the Rotten Tomatoes page instead. e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(2010_film)#Critical_reception has the reference: "Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 62% based on 231 reviews, with a rating average of 6 out of 10. The site's critical consensus reads: "Angelina Jolie gives it her all in the title role, and her seasoned performance is almost enough to save Salt from its predictable and ludicrous plot."[53]" with a link to the rotten tomatoes link fetched in July 2010, and indeed the information is not current (there are 233 reviews, not 231). I also find it beneficial to have a true external link for something like Rotten Tomatoes so that it is more easily edited because they have had a tendency in the past six months to change whole swaths of links for some reason. I will keep this in mind though and take care not to duplicate links in the future.--LudaChrisKlein (talk) 09:36, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining (many do not) - many eds look at ext links being added to and simply grab the 'spam' welcome from twinkle, you have to be ready for that - probably a good edit summary can squash aspects of that - the other telltale warning of something not right is when ext links ared added into text outside of the ref brackets - that is not on per WP:MOS JarrahTree 10:36, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Adding Rotten Tomatoes to external links
Per Village pump (proposals), please stop adding external links to these sort of sites. --Guy Macon (talk) 21:30, 1 October 2020 (UTC)


 * I can't tell, has this proposal been accepted? What are the updated rules about external links? Previously the rules stated that links were just not supposed to be duplicated. Are there now stricter guidelines as to what an "external link" is? --LudaChrisKlein 08:41, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
