Subsequent paragraph divisions were not influenced by your worthless interventions. Go hug your boyfriend if you feel needy, and don't troll an experienced writer.

Don't put a cleanup tag on my work.

Why the reversion on Roman Polanski's page? The text was put in back when the film's title wasn't known yet, but we know now. Incerto501 (talk) 03:55, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn’t know if it was vandalism because it said 2013 and was linked to a book. We can put it back in, but it should be with 2019 and the right link/formatting in italics. Thanks for letting me know. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 03:58, 20 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Got it, thanks for clarifying! Sorry about the link error, usually I check that first. It's actually already linked twice earlier in the article so I left it unlinked but italicized this time. Incerto501 (talk) 15:42, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Please review WP:BRD, our page on best practices for resolving editorial disagreements when your edit has been reverted. It does no good simply to assert, as you did in your edit summary, that you are correct. That leads to edit warring, which is unconstructive. Please self-revert your second edit so that the status quo remains in the article while you advocate for your view on the article talk page. See also WP:BLP Thanks. SPECIFICO talk 23:11, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Normally I would agree, but there doesn't seem to be any justification in the first place to place undue emphasis on the politics of a subject when it is not relevant, e.g. "Roger Waters, a self-proclaimed socialist and musician with a history of conflict with Jewish commentators, gave his support to the Black Lives Matter movement." If I hear a single reason why Jones is worth mentioning or Stone's politics are worth mentioning, I will self-revert immediately. But at the moment it seems like politically-motivated, off-topic editorializing. Not looking for a fight, just a reason, I don't know who added this in the first place but it seems like they were just trying to go off-topic. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 00:00, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * The place to say that is on the article talk page -- before undoing the revert. I did not say it is all excessive. But you need to justify each part you think should be cut. Please self revert. SPECIFICO talk 01:26, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Pre-code Hollywood
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Pre-code Hollywood. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
 * Please stop edit warring and go to the talk page and make your case for your edits. Beyond My Ken (talk) 01:28, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Not vandalism
Hi, YouCanDoBetter. Please don't misuse the word "vandalism" in edit summaries, as you did here and  here. If you take a look at our WP:Vandalism article, especially WP:NOTVAND, you'll see that neither of those edits were vandalism. (And you'll also see that "Intentional vandalism", as you wrote here, is a tautology; it's not vandalism at all if it's not intentional.)  Bishonen &#124; tålk 03:51, 29 December 2022 (UTC).


 * This is, in actuality, a vandalism campaign by a rogue user, and is certainly not a mere case of disruptive editing. Whatever you want to call it, it's sabotage, it's hate-based, and if someone else can effectively deal with it, then do it. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 04:07, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I looked at the contributions of the /64 range (which is all the same person) and I'm afraid I don't understand how for instance changing "black comedy" to "dark comedy" is "sabotage" or "hate-based". Our article Black comedy begins "Black comedy, also known as dark comedy, morbid humor, or gallows humor, is a style of comedy that..", so "dark comedy" is apparently considered an option at least by some. Is it because of these edit summaries that you call it hate-based? That seems a bit of a stretch. Differences of opinion are not vandalism. Bishonen &#124; tålk 11:19, 29 December 2022 (UTC).
 * If you're going to label trolling "difference of opinion", we're not having a dialogue here. I'll stay out of editing these pages, if that makes it easier. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 21:46, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

The Pale Blue Eye cast
Hi. I have undid your edit here because I'm not sure what "end credits based on tombstones" you are referring to? The cast list is directly based on the end credits as you can see here.  Mike  Allen  14:49, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * It's not a big deal to me, but the way I was taught is basing the order on the individual credit slides (sometimes referred to as "tombstone credits") before the scroll. I don't know if there's a policy either way as to which takes precedence, so I'm not pushing for it. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 03:38, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I'll look into it, but until then I'm good with keeping as is.

Come Away with Me genres
I’m not quite sure why you keep adding Jazz as a genre. The AllMusic review doesn’t state jazz anywhere in the review. I’m assuming you’re adding jazz because it’s listed under Genres right below Release Date and Duration. That is not what we follow per Template:Infobox album states — The field should include the music genre(s) that best describes the album. It should come from a reliable source and also be stated and referenced in the body of the article. Jazz is not stated as a genre in the body of the article, so please refrain from adding it back unless you find a reliable source that actually calls the album a jazz album.

Interpolating comments
Hi YouCanDoBetter! Please don't interpolate comments as you did here. Especially because you didn't sign your comment, it appeared like Bgsu98 made it instead. I went ahead and moved your comment below Bgsu98's last line.

When it comes to signing your comments, you may find the "Discussion tools" feature useful. It adds a "Reply" button and it automatically signs your comments. You can enable that in your Preferences > Beta features > Discussion tools. I hope that helps. Cheers! Woodroar (talk) 13:20, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Curtis Hanson
Great job trimming Curtis Hanson. I was planning to what you did. I couldn't ask for a better follow up. I was planning to do the same

I have to disagree with the trim you gave The Bedroom Window. Though. I think you over trimmed it. Anyways let me know if you intent to pursue the article or would you like I can continue pasting relevant information to it and let you do the rest?

Thanks. Filmman3000 (talk) 04:10, 9 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I'll step aside and let you take the lead. I may help out and trim some later, but you're doing a good job. I'll have to look at The Bedroom Window again at some point, maybe I did over-trim it. Thanks for the heads-up. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 05:00, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I re-added a trimmed version of what I had stamped. I will let you know or you will notice my next load. Filmman3000 (talk) 00:36, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
