Edit request from ThePidge001, 1 April 2010

{{editsemiprotected}} I think you should add the dvd sales of $186,347,713 to the $384,997,808 what it grossed at the box office plus add the budget of $37,000,000. this would bring the grossing to $608,341,521. Please could you do this as i think pepole should see how poplaur it was thanks.

ThePidge001 (talk) 17:58, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Welcome and thanks. Three problem: 1) Please provide a reliable source for the values you are listing; 2) You need to detail the change like "please change '...grossed 384,997,808 at the box office' to '... grossed $571,345.521 in box office and dvd sales'"; and 3) Adding the gross revenues to the cost doesn't produce a meaningful value, normally one removes the cost from the gross to determine the net. Thanks, Celestra (talk) 18:29, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from ThePidge001, 1 April 2010

{{editsemiprotected}} hi ive done a request already please could you consider this request as u should put at leasr dvd sales with films. thanks it would show both films have done really well.

ThePidge001 (talk) 19:08, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Hi. The numbers for the DVD sales are already included in the article. I looked at where those numbers and the box office numbers come from and they don't include the DVD sales in the "gross" for the movie. If you were asking to change the "Gross revenue" in the infobox, we need to leave it as it is to compare fairly with other movies. Sorry, Celestra (talk) 19:28, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Twilight (2008 film)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: White Shadows ^{It's a wonderful life} 16:42, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be reviewing this for a GA as soon as I can. I said that I'll review another one too so I'll try to get them both done at the same time ;)--White Shadows ^{It's a wonderful life} 16:42, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Criteria

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
- Prose is fairly good and concise but I'd suggest a minor copy-edit just to make sure that there are not any issues that I may have missed. Once you get a copy-edit, the prose and MOS are good to go.--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 21:08, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - I took a pass at copy-editing. What do you think? Cliff smith ^talk 02:20, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Looks good. I'll consider this part done :)--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 02:35, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- "It is rated 12A in the United Kingdom and Ireland." needs a source. Other than that, I see nothing else wrong.--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 21:08, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Done. ChaosMaster_Chat 02:54, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
- No change needed here :)--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 21:08, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
a (fair representation): b (all significant views):
- No change needed here.--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 21:08, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
The article is stable now that semi-protection has been put into place. No action required.--White Shadows ^{It's a wonderful life} 17:10, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.
a (tagged and captioned): b (Is illustrated with appropriate images): c (non-free images have fair use rationales): d public domain pictures appropriately demonstrate why they are public domain':
- All images are ok.--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 21:14, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Overall:
a Pass/Fail:
- Passed'--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 02:58, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have an issue with the images. The one of Edward and Bella just shows them in a meadow. Is a non-free image needed to depict people laying in a meadow? The other image is claimed to be someone's own work but the image is published on several other websites before the user uploaded it to wikipedia. No offense to the uploader but I found the image here here here here plus a few others. --Peppage ^tlk 18:11, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You make a point. Chaos, can you just remove them so this GA can keep on rolling?--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 23:39, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the first image (the meadow) is a problem. The second, though, I can easlily just put correct "tags" on them. What should I use though? I'll fix them so there can be no further issues. ChaosMaster_Chat 01:07, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed that last image to pass this GAN. Good job! I'd suggest that you keep that image off of the article until you can confirm that it is in the PD ;)--White Shadows ^{Nobody said it was easy} 02:58, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cast list

I personally disagree with how the cast list is organized. I don't think it's accurate to describe the two leads (Stewart and Pattinson) as the only "Main" cast, describing everyone else as "Secondary". List of The Twilight Saga cast members includes several additional cast members as playing "Principal" characters, which makes more sense. I suggest that we restore the organization of the cast based on Cullens and Swans as seen here. That format was changed to its current format by someone who hasn't edited in nine years, and whose only edits are related to Twilight films. I suspect this person was a Pattinson fan, which could account for singling out Pattinson and Stewart, while relegating everyone else to "secondary". Sundayclose (talk) 22:20, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree 100%. This isn't done for other films. Why is it allowed here? There is just a cast, not a main cast. Anyone other than the "main" cast would be uncredited actors. This really should be fixed. 73.6.96.168 (talk) 20:06, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Plot/Cast

New user here - The “plot” states that James becomes excited by Bella’s scent and becomes obsessed with hunting Bella for sport. It is true that James enjoys Bella’s scent, however, Edward states that James’ obsession is the hunt itself, not necessarily Bella. It is because of Edward’s attempt to protect Bella that sets James off and initiates the hunt. Edward realizes this by reading James’ mind and states, “I just made this his most exciting game ever.” Secondly, the “cast” section states that Jessica Stanley, played by Anna Kendrick, is Bella’ first friend in Forks. This is debatable considering Eric Yorkie, played by Justin Chon, was the first one to reach out to Bella and bring her to the lunch table where Jessica and the rest of her soon-to-be friends are sitting.
