Actors

Just noticed that tonights changes by 63.146.250.131 are just wrong. Alan Rickman, Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz did not starr in Star Wars Episode I. The article was correct before... 185.198.228.148 (talk) 22:35, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

E.T. species in film

Members of the E.T. species are in the film. More than enough sources, such as gamerant.com, digitalspy.com, cbr.com, complex.com, syfy.com, etc. --95.99.94.82 (talk) 16:55, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A 2009 GA that currently has numerous citation needed tags, too many quotations, and a tag stating so in critical reassessment. – zmbro _{(talk) (cont)} 16:57, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, there. Igordebraga (talk · contribs) and I are fixing up the citation errors (including the dead ones) and maintenance tags where needed. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 04:46, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect thank you! – zmbro _{(talk) (cont)} 15:39, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
