The articles [[Justin Timberlake videography]] and [[Jake Gyllenhaal filmography]] are both featured articles but need serious clean up. Both of the filmographies on the page include Director(s), Budget, Box office and USD$ when [[WP:FILMOGRAPHY]] doesn't list any of these as necessary columns. And while it's only a guideline, it doesn't pertain to the actor, it pertains to the film and clutters up the table with information that could easily be on the films page. There was a discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers#Director.2C Budget.2C Box office columns in Filmography]] where the majority voted that those kinds of columns should be removed but there are certain editors that patrol both those pages that keep reverting it citing that since they are FLCs that it shouldn't be removed without consensus. <small><span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">[[User:Lady Lotus|LADY LOTUS]]</span> • <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">[[User talk:Lady Lotus|TALK]]</span></small> 15:03, 10 March 2014 (UTC) |

: I've said this to you previously, but I will say it again: Nothing came of that discussion. Just because [[WP:FILMOGRAPHY]] (a WikiProject guideline), doesn't list the director, budget and box office information as necessary doesn't mean they can't be added. Mind you, that section only refers to a "Filmography" table on a biography article, not a stand-alone article, which the ones in question are. Again, as I said on my talk page, these were reviewed by multiple editors who didn't see a problem with having such fields included. Of course, times can change, and if it is ever deemed that such content should not be included, then obviously it should not be. But that hasn't happen. So you just have to stop being disruptive and removing content as you see fit.— [[User:Status|<span title="User page" style="color:black;">Status</span>]] ([[User talk:Status|<span title="Talk">talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/Status|<span title="Contribs">contribs</span>]]) 15:16, 10 March 2014 (UTC) |

April Fools
Just a heads up to everyone, as today April 1 (and thus April Fools Day) falls on a Monday, I've created Wikipedia:April Fool's Main Page/Featured List for editors to select a... proper list for the occasion. Cheers! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:02, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
The Day We Fight Back
Please lend your ideas, expertise, and general awesomeness to this project (especially your section), which is designed to bring together all the main page task forces to create a themed main page as part of the User talk:Jimbo Wales/Archive 155#The Day We Fight Back campaign (sites like Reddit are participating too). See The Day We Fight Back for more information. :)--Coin945 (talk) 16:36, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- What a bloody awful idea! Completely ignores two of our 5 pillars and turns us away from being an encyclopaedia and into a political mouthpiece. - SchroCat (talk) 08:06, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
Filmographies of featured articles
The articles Justin Timberlake videography and Jake Gyllenhaal filmography are both featured articles but need serious clean up. Both of the filmographies on the page include Director(s), Budget, Box office and USD$ when WP:FILMOGRAPHY doesn't list any of these as necessary columns. And while it's only a guideline, it doesn't pertain to the actor, it pertains to the film and clutters up the table with information that could easily be on the films page. There was a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers#Director.2C Budget.2C Box office columns in Filmography where the majority voted that those kinds of columns should be removed but there are certain editors that patrol both those pages that keep reverting it citing that since they are FLCs that it shouldn't be removed without consensus.
