Plot length

[edit]

The Manual of Style dictates that plot summaries be 400-700 words in length, but this plot, with its story-within-a-story as well as the plot twist, seems to me to merit a greater length. Can anyone else trim it down to regulation length without losing the clever spirit of the movie? Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 05:50, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Over a thousand words is excessive. WP:STREAMLINE might be helpful to read. A long plot section is preferably to an incomplete plot section, so please do keep the long version and don't delete back to an incomplete premise section. Just try your best to make it a bit more concise, then the next editor will hopefully trim it some more, incremental improvement is fine. Anyway there's no hurry, a good copyeditor will get around to it sooner or later. -- 109.76.130.189 (talk) 12:39, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
