Find better phrasing for whatever this was trying to express. There have been 0 moments since WWII where its veterans weren't honored or respected in the US, even though Slaughterhouse Five and Catch-22 were theoretically based during that war specifically instead of any other. There was no cultural shift where people suddenly remembered that they owed a debt of honor to the WWII vets. — LlywelynII05:56, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So many professional historians here on Wikipedia. What does the second sentence say after the one you edited? Or did you not read that far? Darkwarriorblake (talk) 10:00, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
books of Stephen E. Ambrose and accounts of the deaths of members of a single family such as the Niland brothers
There are 4 record of'es in this main article section. 182.253.54.87 (talk) 09:08, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The countries for the distributors of the film have been removed from the infobox. WP:FILMDIST guidelines clearly state, "Using the same rationale as the release date, the distributor(s) should be restricted to the country or countries that produced the film and (if different) the country where the film is first released. If there are only two distributors in total (a domestic and foreign) then include both of them." However, on this infobox, they are replaced with hidden notes saying not to include them, as they are discussed in the body text, when it's clearly known that DreamWorks distributed in the United States and Paramount distributed internationally. Other articles for films show countries for distributors (domestic and foreign in the infobox). TPalkovitz (talk) 21:16, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're misreading the guideline. The distributor guideline has nothing to do with country field, and both distributors are American. The hidden notes are there to stop people adding "(North America)" and "(international)" to the infobox when we a) try to avoid using the term international becuase it's an English Wikipedia, and b) it makes the infobox a mess. Plus there will be countries where other companies ultimately distributed on behalf of others. And it is discussed in the body text. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 08:18, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have read the guideline, and I am trying to figure out how this is being "misread". I am aware that it is discussed in the body text, as I stated on here. Maybe there should be updated infobox guidelines to avoid confusion on further articles? The quote I used is directly from the distributor portion of the guidelines. I'm just trying to figure this thing out because the guidelines appear rather vague (the quote I said was the only thing listed in the distributor section), and with all due respect, I don't see anything in the guidelines that back up your statement. TPalkovitz (talk) 07:33, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The countries in parentheses to indicate distribution, which has been used in most infoboxes. And I don't see anything in the guidelines about how "it makes the infobox a mess", or anything about hidden notes in the guidelines. On this page, the infobox appears to show that DreamWorks and Paramount co-distributed and it is helpful to add domestic and foreign distributors in parentheses.

Ah, then yes I oppose your suggestion. Other articles doing it is not how it works per WP: OTHERSTUFF, and there is nothing in WP: FILMDIST about adding locations in parentheticals, it's unnecessary for the infobox, noone needs a quick glance of the infobox and has to immediately understand Paramount distributed internationally, and that is not including my earlier points about how they likely didn't distribute in every single market outside of the USA, and using "International" or "foreign" is problematic for a variety of reasons. And it's discussed in the body text. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 20:51, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
