I noticed that you added the talk page for this article and that you did some clean up work on this article. I wrote this version of the article and I left a note on the article's talk page stating that someone deleted a significant amount of information in the article. I realize I wrote the deleted info, so I may not be the best judge of what has been done. However, would you look into this? Thanks.Bill Pollard (talk) 14:34, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

In your recent edit summaries (as here) [[Project:AWB|AWB]] is now working! --Tito Dutta (talk) 01:46, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
- I see that, but I'm not sure how to fix it. It's hardcoded in AWB. BOVINEBOY2008

Escape from Tomorrow move
Would you mind if I moved it back? I had given it the name with the dab term because there's also two other potential articles that use the name: the pilot episode of the Planet of the Apes TV series, and (I think) a short story by a notable sci-fi author. Even though those articles don't exist yet, I'd rather take care of the disambiguation possibilities in advance ... in fact WP:DISAMBIG says: "Disambiguation is required whenever, for a given word or phrase on which a reader might search, there is more than one existing Wikipedia article to which that word or phrase might be expected to lead." (emphasis mine). Daniel Case (talk) 05:47, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Don't you think a hat would be more appropriate in this case? I don't care, but if you do decide to move it back, please be sure to create a disambiguation page so that if someone searches for "Escape from Tomorrow", they can find the article. There was no link there previously. BOVINEBOY2008 11:39, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- I think we're only supposed to use hats when an actual article exists. But anyway, I'm not going to revert because I don't think anyone's about to create the article about the PotA episode tomorrow and I've nominated it for DYK. Daniel Case(talk) 06:31, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
Your technical move request
Hello Bovineboy2008. Please see my response here. Wikipedia seems to have two different articles about the same upcoming Ram Leela film. One of the articles is now buried in the edit history under a redirect. In my response I suggested some options. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 04:38, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Agenda: Grinding America Down revisited
Since we had an issue with someone making changes to this article, someone else has made drastic changes. He claims his changes make the article completely objective. I strongly beg to differ. Could you have the WikiProject Film coordinators look at this issue? I know once in a while there are cases where Wikipedians have strong disagreements that they themselves cannot resolve. I will not become involved in an edit war, as that is unproductive. Please see my comments on the article talk page. Bill Pollard (talk) 14:11, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- I would recommend bringing it up at WT:FILM, see if you can get more opinions there. If not, you could pursue WP:RFC, but I would only do that as a last effort. BOVINEBOY2008 19:04, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Main Page appearance
Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of the article List of highest-grossing films know that it will be appearing asthe main page featured list on February 25, 2013. You can view the TFL blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured list/February 25, 2013. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured list directors The Rambling Man (talk · contribs), Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) or Giants2008 (talk · contribs), or at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured list. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. 
Thanks! Tbhotch.™Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 04:50, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
Traditionally, the highest-grossing films have been war films, musicals andhistorical dramas, but franchise films have been the best performers in the 21st century, especially the Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings andPirates of the Caribbean series. The only films in the top ten that do not form a franchise are the top two, Avatar and Titanic, both directed by James Cameron.Disney has enjoyed success with its Pixar brand, of which the Toy Story films have been the best performers. James Bond, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones are still among the highest-grossing franchises, despite starting over thirty years ago. Gone with the Wind (poster pictured) was the highest-grossing film for 25 years and, adjusting for inflation, would remain so.

Article for deletion
Hi... I came across this page Kaalja Teenagers, created today by User:Sukpreet2013, but this article has no references similar to few articles previously created by this user before. Is it okay to nominate it for deletion. Can you do it, since I do not know the steps. Vigyani (talk) 14:59, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
I have removed the redirect, expanded it and nominated for DYK. You can suggest alternative hook or help to expand the lead a bit in summary style! --Tito Dutta (contact) 10:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
Please consider adding comment at Talk:Chhota Bheem and the Throne of Bali requested move! Your move was unclear specially when the article was at DYK. --Tito Dutta (contact) 20:56, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
RED 2
Regarding your revert of a page move from RED 2 toRED 2 (film). MisterShiney (talk · contribs) sent me a "thank you" for my edit summary here. That's apparently the explanation that was missing when he moved the page.
As an admin I won't undo your revert, but I leave it for you to reconsider. The rationale for the move is that the name of an un-released film shouldn't be the primary topic for a title like "Red 2", which is most commonly used to refer to a food dye; therefore the film title should have a disambiguator in it to identify it as a film. ~Amatulić (talk) 01:58, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hello, yeah that was the reason I was going to give but was editing from a mobile device and ended up pressing the wrong button before I was ready and had put in a summary. Hope that clears up any misunderstanding. MisterShiney ✉ 08:21, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info. I have moved it back and also created a dab at Red 2 and have redirected RED 2 to that page. Sorry for the mix up! BOVINEBOY2008 22:07, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Raghusri. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to 1 (2013 film) because it did not appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Raghusri 12:56, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to 1 (2013 film). Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of thesandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Raghusri 12:07, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Baahubali. It is consideredvandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to a loss of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Because, who said you that the film will release in 2015. Is there any source? If so please provide a source in the edit summary. Adding a category like that is not good! Raghusri 12:17, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
Consensus?

Wolf Totem
At Wolf Totem (film), why remove the release year? It is referenced in the article. It helps to inform readers that it won't come out this year. Erik (talk | contribs) 00:33, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Erik. I was trying to find the discussion that this was brought up but I can't seem to find it. From what I recall, it was decided that the date parameter in the infobox should only be filled when a full date is confirmed by the studio. Just have a projected release year or a speculated release year was not solid enough information. And I think it would be understandable to include that the studio has projected a release for 2014 in the lede of the article, but not the infobox. BOVINEBOY2008 11:33, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
Your thanks made me lol
I saw a little thanks for an edit in my personal notifications (and when did that start btw) and cracked up when I saw what edit you thanked. I don't know why that "agonist" stuff chaps my hide so much but I'm glad others share the distaste. I'm thinking of trying to convince the tv project to adopt a similar take as the film project to the idea. It makes me want to headdesk myself to death. It's almost as bad as "irregardless". Millahnna (talk) 07:46, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
- OMG yes. I die every time someone adds it, and you just know they are in middle or high school and are learning how to identify each role. BOVINEBOY2008 11:34, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
I invite you back to the discussion and request you reconsider. Thank you, Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:38, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for revisiting. Will myself work on the article this evening. Thank you. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 23:08, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

copyright
This paragraph has to be removed:
"Reckless desire wreaks havoc over Memorial Day weekend as a family confronts the volatile and fragile nature of love. A modern retelling of Anton Chekhov's "The Seagull", set in rural New England."
It's identical to the imdb page. The information about other details like producer, release date, can also be obtained from imdb web-page, but they are a minor issue. Including these wouldn't violate copyright, contrary to including a complete paragraph.Noholist (talk) 21:50, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Nice... and oops....
You did a good thing in moving thisarticle to its proper title under WP:NCF. But we had a few issues arise from the fact that the thing was (and now still is) at AFD at the time. Turns out it was non-admin closed prematurely (which had to be undone). Undoing the close was a bit odd because of the move. (ie: Old AFD title, new article title, resetting delsorts, etc.) I think the issues have all been resolved, but will have to recheck my work/fixes if/when the thing closes properly in a few more days. Cheers. and have a good holiday. Schmidt, Michael Q. 16:12, 31 August 2013 (UTC)

Batman: The Dark Knight Return
Hi, I see that you have removed the secondary info. That's okay, but what about the DVD cover from deluxe edition? Is that relevant? The reason I replaced the initial image is because the deluxe edition is the two part film combined. I feel that the new cover would better reflect the article.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 20:30, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Film article on Hollow
Hi Bovineboy!
I'm new to editing Wikipedia - I'm a film buff and edited a page on the film Hollow, which an editor (I think you) rolled back, can you give me some guidance as to why, and what I need to do to have the changes accepted?
Many thanks in anticipation.
James
Jamesmayor2002 (talk) 12:21, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
- Sure thing James. First, I would advise you to look over MOS:FILM for general guidelines on film articles and also the core principles of Wikipedia: neutral point of view, no original research, and verifiability. In your edits toHollow (2011 horror film), you introduced a lot of content that was unsourced and everything that is in an article must be either easily verifiable or supported by a reliable source. We generally avoid adding indiscriminate trivia, including trivia sections. Content should be relevant and notable and not just arbitrarily related. Also, we shouldn't give undue weight to certain content, such as the mythology behind the film. If the mythology is notable; i.e. covered by independent sources to some extent, then it can be included. Also, looking at the reception section you provided, you wrote what we like to call aquote farm, which should generally be avoided. A reception section should have prose between sections and quotes should be used sparingly. Try summarizing what was praised and what was lauded and use partial quotes with citation to support the summary. Please let me know if you have any other questions, or if you would like someone to help read over what you have done. I may recommend using a sandbox at User:Jamesmayor2002/sandbox to work on a draft of the article. BOVINEBOY2008 15:20, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
Wolf Totem
Hi, hope you're doing well. :) Regarding Wolf Totem (film) and your category removal here, I'm not understanding your reason. We can verify the release year, and we can apply the year-based category accordingly. Do you think that just the year is too vague for categorization? I don't think it is useful to deprive this article of that listing on that basis. If a film had a specific release date (and was categorized for the given year) was postponed to another specific release date in the following year, we would update that year-based category accordingly. Why couldn't we do that here? 2014 is what we can verify, and barring verification of a postponement to 2015, we should categorize it as a 2014 film. Erik (talk | contribs) 15:33, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Erik. I understand your reasoning. I really think that if there is a verifiable year, we could add the category. I don't see a problem with that. I've been working under the assumption that there needed to be a confirmed full release date, i.e. month and day, to add the category and the date to the infobox. I feel like that was the consensus to one of the many release date discussions on one of the project talk pages. However, I can't seem to find that anymore. My only worry is that there tends to be a lot of films that studios will announce that the film will release in 2016, or even Spring 2016. This seems to be only a projected release date, something less than an actual confirmed release date. I would prefer to add the category once and not change it, barring extenuating circumstances, and it seems logical to wait until the film is either released, or there is a solid release date. But I'm not opposed to other viewpoints.BOVINEBOY2008 12:10, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- What is the difference between a projected release date and an actual confirmed release date? I do not think there is one if the film is in production. If we were talking about a film only in development, than I could see a difference since there's no assurance they would get to the point of production for the release date to be sensible. In contrast, if a film like Wolf Totem is already in production, it is much more likely than not to be released in the near future. (As opposed to something like Pluto Nash that gets shelved...) Erik (talk | contribs) 17:06, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- Well, I think any release date is a projected release date until it passes imho. But I can be flexible. BOVINEBOY2008 10:11, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
My Prairie Home (film)
Hi there. I'm not sure if you will disagree with my creation of My Prairie Home (film) with disambiguation, based on the album of the same name by Rae, as an aid to navigation. There is no Wikipedia article for the album. I know you'll move the page if you disagree. Thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:42, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
- Meh, I'm not crazy about using the disambiguation, but I can understand it. I created a dab page. BOVINEBOY2008 00:23, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
Searching for David's Heart
I understand that the article Searching for David's Heart is primarily about the novel, with only a small section about the film adaptation. But how does that exclude it from being part of {{WikiProject Film}}? The article contains both a film stub template and film categories, and as far as I can tell, the film information is not covered anywhere else on Wikipedia. Please restore the film project banner, so that the information about the film has a chance to be expanded. Thanks! Fortdj33 (talk) 14:59, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
Incorrect use of PROD
One of the golden rules of PROD is if it is removed, you can not PROD an article again. I've removed the PROD from Stay Moore: The World of Donald Harrington. Please take it to AFD. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 19:30, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
The Song (film)
I received your comments that there is already a movie titled "The Song" and that page doesn't have the (film) designation like a lot of movies. It's also an obscure film more than 50 years old. Our movie "The Song" will be released across the country next September most likely, We can't guarantee our film will release in 2014. Generally, the protocols are "Movie Title". If there is already a page by that name it's "Movie Title (film)", if that page title is already taken, then there are descriptors like The Song (2014 Film). The Song (film) makes it the most modern and widespread use of a movie title called "The Song" which will receive wide exposure in the coming year. Please do not redirect anymore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CityOnAHill (talk • contribs) 13:35, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
Question?
On my article True Love (Once Removed) -- you removed the production and filming sections, recently. I did not understand the explanation for that removal; the other changes I do understand.
The film itself does not explicitly state a location or setting, but the film was primarily filmed in Iceland, and some inside work in the UK in the credits for the film and Palm Springs Short Fest. Also, it was produced by Thomas Thomas Films, a production company started in 2000 by Kevin Thomas and Philippa Thomas (his wife was producer), and their first short.Kevin Thomas and Thomas Thomas Films, but that section got removed. If due to external links, please explain. Also, and I know you did not mark the page, but it's marked as an Orphan -- the page links back to the main actor's wiki page. Can I remove the Orphan reference? Respectfully and thank you,
