Rotten Tomatoes citation

[edit]

@Koavf: I understand why you would want this to be consistent, but it is also the general style to have the rotten tomatoes citation up with the info because it is not a complete reference, it needs to be updated whenever the data is updated, and users generally won't do that if it isn't right there for them to do so. I believe that is a valid reason to break with consistency, which is why most articles do it. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:19, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not a complete reference? That's true of every URL: they can all change. ―Justin (koavf)TCM 02:59, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
But generally you get the information and add the complete reference. With stuff like the review aggregates, the information keeps needing to be updated for quite a while, and the reference along with it. It's hardly the same as all the other references. - adamstom97 (talk) 03:53, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Short Description

[edit]

Please allow a short description. The first I offered was imported from Wikidata, which is where they come from by magic if there isn’t one on page. It was reverted with a cryptic comment by User:Koavf. So I offered a shorter “short description” which User:Koavf also reverted. This time with a better comment, at least in context.

What wikidata gives us is often not very good, some of what it has is graffiti. Our pages need short descriptions on page where editors can see, refine and improve them.

Philoserf, Why are inserting a short description that is identical to the one that is generated by the infobox? This is the definition of busywork. I just cannot understand for the life of me the value in this. ―Justin (koavf)TCM 02:40, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It it? That isn't what I saw.—¿philoserf? (talk) 05:41, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Philoserf, What did you see? How did you see it? ―Justin (koavf)TCM 06:48, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
