Leonardo DiCaprio filmography

 * Nominator(s): Cowlibob (talk) 17:10, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Another filmography article from me. This time for actor, Leonardo DiCaprio, star of many films including Titanic, Catch Me If You Can, The Aviator, and Inception. As always welcome all the helpful comments on how to improve it. Cowlibob (talk) 17:10, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Support — I made some other adjustments for you. It looks good now. Jimknut (talk) 00:01, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Your FLC for Sandra Bullock filmography has not closed yet. Before I review this, are you confident there's not too much work left to do for that before taking this to FL?  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 17:49, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
 * To be honest I'm not sure. Five people have looked at it of which 4 have given support. Crisco has struck his oppose so I don't know what else is barring the list. Cowlibob (talk) 20:00, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Very well. Now for the review.....
 * "He made appearances on shows" → "He appeared on shows"
 * For Titanic, I think it's worth mentioning DiCaprio won an MTV Movie Award for Best Male Performance as well as a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor, considering it is among his best-known roles and highly acclaimed.
 * It is mentioned that Titanic became the highest-grossing film of all time. Since this is no longer the case with Avatar now having that title, I'd indicate that Titanic is no longer the highest. Maybe mention how much it initially grossed as well.
 * FN13: This should be the only ref that links Roger Ebert
 * FN16: "Review: ‘William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet’" → "Review: 'William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet'" per MOS:QUOTEMARKS

Overall, this looks quite good, especially after addressing Jim's points.  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 21:32, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Fixed all above points I think. I don't think we need to include the gross, the film article will inform readers of that. Cowlibob (talk) 08:31, 1 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Support everything looks good now  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 15:26, 1 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Comments from
 * I have made some copyedits to the article to tighten the prose. Feel free to discuss if you disagree with any of those.
 * This statement "The film became the highest grossing at the worldwide box-office (it has since been surpassed by Cameron-directed Avatar (2009) which holds the record as of 2014)" is a bit problematic. The Avatar fact appears more of a trivia and is especially jarring in the filmography of an actor who has no connection with the film. I would advice on deleting this fact. You can change it to: "Titanic emerged as the highest grossing film at the worldwide box-office at the time".
 * The Basketball Diaries does not link to the film.
 * That's all. Good work! :) -- KRIMUK  90  ✉  04:29, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. I've converted the Avatar reference into a note so it's not jarring. Skr has corrected the wikilink for Basketball Diaries ahead of me. I only changed back one of your ce. Global star ==> famous globally as I didn't want to say star twice as I've already said he starred in the film. Cowlibob (talk) 21:34, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Support: All good! Best of luck! :) -- KRIMUK  90  ✉  05:32, 5 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Support Excellent work, meets the Featured List criteria.--Skr15081997 (talk) 09:25, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Comments. – SchroCat (talk) 10:17, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
 * The sort needs looking at in the filmog – some films are sorting on "The"
 * Why are some publications linked in the refs and others not? This should be consistent
 * For published books you need to include their locations as well
 * Sorted point 1 and 3. All publications are linked in the refs at the first mention as per SNUGGUMS' advice presumably so that it's not a WP:OVERLINK issue. Cowlibob (talk) 21:26, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Hmm... OVERLINKING doesn't really apply to captions, leads and the other ephemera, such as notes and references. I'd suggest either linking all or none of them, as the inconsistency looks odd. - SchroCat (talk) 21:51, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I've linked all publishers wherever possible now. Cowlibob (talk) 12:20, 8 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Support The article is brilliant. Excellent work. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 18:40, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
