A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
Thank you so much for bringing Groundhog Day (film) to FA. This will probably seem so random, but this was the first movie I've watched in ages (did it for an English class), and afterward I had this philosophical and strangely euphoric experience. Then I went to Wikipedia to learn a bit more about the film and saw that it was an FA, which just made me so happy. Thanks again; it was a big part of a rare moment of joy in a rather bleak time. Sincerely, Ovinus (talk) 05:03, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Ovinus, that makes it all worth it tbh. I was a fan of Groundhog Day beforehand but I didn't realize the scope of its development or later impact until I began working on it. It's always nice to work on articles that have lots of readers and that actually means something to people. Also, watch more movies! Have a great holiday season. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 08:37, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Will do, and you too! Ovinus (talk) 17:59, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Aliens (film) copyedit


Aliens

I appreciate the thanks! I feel like our friend Kimand299 is being disruptive to make some sort of point (although what, I don't know), but I'm at my third revert so I'll need to hold off on repairing their damage for now. Any ideas on how we can get them to actually listen? NekoKatsun (nyaa) 23:20, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've had to report the user to the admins for edit warring, because they're way over their third edit despite being told to stop and discuss. Unfortunately not much more we can do for now as frustrating as it is. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 23:24, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for doing that - I really have no idea what their horse in this particular race is; you've been very clear about the BFI guidelines, and even their own AFI source clearly says "Made by Twentieth Century Fox Productions Ltd. at Pinewood Studios, London, England, with location sequences filmed at Acton Lane Power Station, London, England." I'm not sure how much more undisputed it could be! NekoKatsun (nyaa) 23:26, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It will be for jingoistic reasons, I imagine the user is American and takes umbrage at some other country claiming a hand in a film they believe is theirs alone. Hopefully an admin will intervene soon. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 23:28, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Blarf, you're probably right. Thank you again! NekoKatsun (nyaa) 23:30, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh dear, they've tried to counter-report you. Badly. Breaks your heart to see it! NekoKatsun (nyaa) 23:35, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Groundhog Day (film) scheduled for TFA

This is to let you know that Groundhog Day (film) has been scheduled as WP:TFA for 2 February 2021. Please check that the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/February 2, 2021. Thanks! Ealdgyth (talk) 15:39, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Precious anniversary

Precious
Six years!

--Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:41, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good timing: thank you today for Groundhog Day (film), "No fancy intro, this is Groundhog Day, even if you've never seen it, you've heard the term. Classed as one of the greatest comedy films ever made ..." - Have a good new year! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:51, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Gerda Arendt! Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 09:34, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you today for making the April fool repetition ´possible. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:41, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Never realized how popular Groundhog Day is until it appeared on the front page in Feb and rocked 140K views! Thanks Gerda Arendt Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 09:27, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Wish you more ;) - Bach cantata on 4 April will garner a more modest number. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:30, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you today for Die Hard, "about the 1988 action film Die Hard starring Bruce Willis and the inimitable Alan Rickman"! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:45, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you today for South Park: The Stick of Truth, "about the 2014 role playing video game developed by Obsidian Entertainment and based on the long running comedy television show South Park created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone"! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:43, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Gerda Arendt! Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 17:07, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
... and today for Raiders of the Lost Ark, "about the 1981 action-adventure film Raiders of the Lost Ark (a.k.a. Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark). Though not my favourite film in the series it's the most important one, not just for the film series itself but for its influence on films that followed, it's massive success, and somehow George Lucas was making this and The Empire Strikes Back simultaneously. Questionable talent that he may have become, the man was a genius at his peak."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:45, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again Gerda Arendt. Yes it's my 2nd favourite after Last Crusade, the other two I don't talk about. I'm slooooowly working on Empire Strikes Back, and it's all the more impressive because Empire was basically a trainwreck production wise and like 23 million over budget, and even so, he created both films that have a legacy 40 years later. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 16:57, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Original Barnstar
For Groundhog Day (film), a beautifully written article. I glanced over it briefly and found I couldn't stop reading. I shall resist the temptation to repeat this award every 24 hours.GRuban (talk) 19:37, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much GRuban, I really appreciate your words and it makes the time invested all the more worth it. For a romantic comedy it really has an interesting behind-the-scenes aspect and a lasting impact afterward that it's a shame its article spent so long in such a bare bones state beforehand. I can come back to read some parts every month just because it is interesting, and I'm a big fan of both Ramis and Murray. Have a great day! Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 20:18, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Haven't looked at the article for ages, but thought I'd pop along to it now to improve it .... then noticed it had just been on the main page. Superb effort, well written and thoroughly deserving of the FA star, although I will say the opening exchange at the FAC is why I don't bother with FAs. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:28, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Tell me about it, I don't mind a Themes section where it is relevant, but it was pretty solid section as is without knowing how a university rando thinks. I'm getting a bit fed up with the FA process tbh, it's so arbitrary, but these good films deserve to be recognised more prominently. Glad you appreciate it, it was one of my biggest efforts. Pretty psyched to see it had 140,000(!!!) viewers on Feb 2nd.

Thanks

Thanks for the work you did to make Groundhog Day (film) an FA. Seeing it on the main page today made me smile. --Floquenbeam (talk) 19:41, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome Floquenbeam, glad it made your day! Hopefully it will make your day tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after, and the day... Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 20:18, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unlike almost every other film I can think of, Groundhog Day gets better and better every time I watch it. Do you ever log onto Wikipedia, have a look at your watchlist, and think "didn't I see this yesterday, or the day before .... in fact isn't WP doing the same thing every day, over and over again ...." :-/ Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:26, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

The Editor's Barnstar
I wanted to say I'm sorry for being a bit of a pain at the article for The Thing a few years back. I wasn't familiar with Wiki policies and didn't really know what I was doing. Since then I have read a lot of your work, and it's always exceptional. ~ HAL333 22:43, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
HAL333, thank you, I don't honestly remember you being a pain on The Thing so don't worry about it. I can be a bit like the unmovable object sometimes. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 10:57, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

RoboCop

Congrats dude! The article you were working on, RoboCop, has passed the GA-criteria, becoming a good article on February 15, 2021. Great job on the improvements! For you're hard work, I award you this interesting image of a dog staring straight at you (but in a cute way). Enjoy!

Your GA nomination of RoboCop

The article RoboCop you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:RoboCop for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Some wings

Buffalo Wings
From a guy in a suburb in Buffalo, New York and a wing fanatic, here's some wings for ya for your plethora of film articles inspiring me to get my groove on with editing this online encyclopedia even more. Your efforts on RoboCop, Ghostbusters II and Groundhog Day influenced me so much to do the same for other film articles (such as on those terrible RoboCop sequels). Your work is phenomenal. Keep it up! HumanxAnthro (talk) 18:53, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you HumanxAnthro, I'm glad I helped you, but spend your time on better articles than those terrible RoboCop sequels! XD Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 23:02, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hehehe. Hey, someone's got do it, and I'll be the guy improving articles on less popular stuff. Remember, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia of every notable topic (event terrible ones). I particularly took influence in your themes section, what sources you cited and how you represented them, plus those upright photo thumbnail formats I'll admit I just had to copy. HumanxAnthro (talk) 23:12, 24 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

GOCE copy edit of RoboCop


There are two templates that I left on the page, which need to be resolved. One (clarification needed) concerns submitting the initial script to "business associates" which seemed un-satisfyingly vague. The other (citation needed) concerns my naming Erica Phillips as the Saturn Awards–nominated costume designer who didn't win. She was the only nominee in that paragraph not named, but I couldn't find a reference naming her, just a mention on the relevant Saturn Awards page. Those issues could be resolved by leaving it vague and not naming Phillips, but I think the article would be weaker for that. Dhtwiki (talk) 12:17, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Dhtwiki, the Saturn Award thing can't be resolved as far as I'm aware, that's why I left her out as much as I do not prefer to. The Saturn awards official site only lists winners, and the award show doesn't seem to be covered consistently and competently, especially from that time period. The former issue, I'm not sure I can make it clearer, I think the sources just say business associates or friends, but I'll have another read. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 17:14, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I plan to start undoing my templates soon, especially the one involving Saturn Awards, unless you find some new sources or get to the undoing before me. Dhtwiki (talk) 22:43, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

1996 FA Film

Hey there, DarkWarriorBlake, and great work with the Die Hard FA. I notice your current project has one year in the 1990s not determined, 1996. I have a great idea for it, given that a remake of it is upcoming: Space Jam. Seriously, go for it! I'd be happy to help! 👨x🐱 (talk) 14:12, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe. I was hoping to work on the Matrix first, but Space Jam might be a smaller project. I need to finish The Empire Strikes Back first. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 14:53, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Promotion of Die Hard

Congratulations, Darkwarriorblake! The article you nominated, Die Hard, has been promoted to featured status, recognizing it as one of the best articles on Wikipedia. The nomination discussion has been archived.

Ghostbusters

Hey, do me a favour: if you're going to keep undoing my edits, at least explain why. I've given cogent reason for my changes. Do me the courtesy of the same. FishAndCrisps (talk) 18:51, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I did explain. I disagreed with your edit. The content passed FA as it is and I believe the content is fair. You don't. That's not a reason. I invoked WP:BRD which means go talk on the talk page, where we can disagree to your heart's content without you fucking with the content of a Featured Article. EDIT: Especially on Ghostbusters II, the content you are removing is sourced in the article and the lead is a summary of the article, so you are removing sourced content because you disagree with it. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 19:11, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There's no disagreement. It's still the same content, just written to be more objective. FishAndCrisps (talk) 16:38, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ghostbusters (2016 film)

What do you think of my recent contributions to Ghostbusters (2016 film)?--NeoBatfreak (talk) 18:25, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It looks fine? I don't watch that article because the film is bad. I will say that "The story focuses on four eccentric, intelligent women (and their incompetent assistant) who fancy themselves as parapsychologists and start a ghost-catching business in New York City" is not written particularly well. Is the black woman intelligent? My understanding is she's a tram ticket lady. street smart maybe. And does the incompetent assistant fancy himself as a parapsychologist or start the ghost-catching business? I'd drop the intelligence assessments altogether and stick with eccentric women who found a ghost catching business. Also the plot is too long for something I believe is huge swathes of just riffing dialogue against each other.Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 22:10, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ghostbusters 2 (music)

So I don't understand why you removed info I added regarding the Edelman score being recently released by Sony Classical. I also provided a link for reference. This seems odd you would remove this. Can you give a good explanation as to why you did? Also, shouldn't soundtrack info be in the music section, not "home media"??? That makes zero sense. So instead of removing what I added, shouldn't we remove the redundant and less detailed soundtrack info that's in the "home media" area and only have it in the "music" section? You know, where it actually belongs? And only crediting the song 'Flesh 'N Blood' to Elfman alone, when it is actually an Oingo Boingo song, is incorrect info.

I can provide reference links for the other songs that are still missing from being listed on this article. It seems odd to only have certain songs listed for the soundtrack.

Why would you talk about billboard listings and home media releases in a section talking about the production of music for the film? You wouldn't. You'd talk about it in the home media section that discusses separate releases for home consumption. I didn't notice the bit you added about the Edelman score because I was busy trying to pull apart the unsourced info you'd thrown in everywhere else, but just listing every song in the film isn't appropriate or necessary. You'd be better off creating Music of Ghostbusters II or something like Back to the Future soundtracks. I'll re-add the Edelman info.

To call your work on The Empire Strikes Back unbelievable is an understatement. Your rewrite is absolutely astonishing. Keep it up!! JOEBRO64 16:50, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks buddy, it's been a long one. I had to read a 360 page book for most of that info. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 17:15, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have the book you're talking about and yeah I can't even begin to fathom how difficult it was. JOEBRO64 17:23, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia

You may wish to read WP:COPYWITHIN as you appear to have copied massive chunks of the Empire Strikes Back article for the special effects article without correct attribution. Canterbury Tail talk 11:41, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You'll have to clarify what you mean Canterbury Tail, I wrote both articles and there's only about 3 modified paragraphs from the main article that I've expanded on. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 11:45, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Um you did not write the entirety of the Empire Strikes Back article, you’ve made edits to it yes, but for example the opening paragraph which has been copied verbatim to the special effects article is largely unchanged for a long time and you were not the sole contributor. All you need to do is log and acknowledge the paragraphs that have been copied in the history so it’s properly attributed. Ask it stands it implies you wrote that opening paragraph with no other input for example. You just need to put in a blank edit or such stating what was copied from where and the attribution will be handled. I’d recommend doing it before the article gets edited and altered more, as that opening paragraph mostly will be changed anyway as it’s not really relevant to the article you’re making.
Note, good work on all this anyway by the way. I know Rinzler isn’t the most riveting read. Canterbury Tail talk 11:54, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Err, every word after the plot is undoubtedly mine, not just minor edits thanks. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 11:57, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ah hundreds of editors have made edits to the ESB article after the plot in the last couple of years, so no every word cannot be yours, but that’s not the discussion here. The opening paragraph has been pretty stable for many many years, I’m even one of the editors on that, which is something that was copied wholesale from ESB to the special effects article and needs the attribution applied. All that is needed here is an attribution line in the history saying x paragraph was copied from Y article and see that pages history for attribution.

Writing thematic analysis

Based on your experience, can you help write a thematic analysis for a potential film-related featured article. Thanks. Wingwatchers (talk) 23:00, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It would depend on the article, if I'm not interested in the film it's really hard to be motivated. I can help source information and do some writing for you if you're willing to copy edit and write up the rest. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 09:50, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, Frozen II, Thanks. Wingwatchers (talk) 14:40, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm...I can take a look, I;m sure there's plenty of analysis about it. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 14:55, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes there's numerous sources on its talk page. Wingwatchers (talk) 15:10, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I never thought anyone would be capable of doing this, I initially thought you would ignore the message, but unexpectedly you were working all this time. My biggest Thank You to you. Wingwatchers (talk) 20:13, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, bit hard to find too many sources but it's a relatively new film. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 20:23, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Citation bot

Why did you revert[1] Citation bot's edit[2] to Groundhog Day (film)?

The bot spent a long time processing that page after @Abductive suggested it, and its changes look good to me. You did not explain your revert. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:52, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
