Clarifying what makes details unnecessary?

SilviaASH, you've reverted a few of my changes to I Saw the TV Glow today. Each of them is factual material about the movie, either directly quoting a character or something written on the screen. Can you clarify if there is a rule I'm not following or otherwise indicate how I can meet your standards as an editor here? Strand (talk) 21:46, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

As it says in the guide I linked in my edit summary, we don't need to add every detail about a film just because it's factual. Plot summaries on Wikipedia need to be concise and only include the detail that's necessary for someone who hasn't seen the film to understand the plot. In particular, the section I linked says:

"Do not attempt to re-create the emotional impact of the work through the plot summary. Wikipedia is not a substitute for the original."

Descriptions of shots from the film, such as those that you added, don't serve this purpose. Describing the film this way can't assist a reader's understanding of the story the way that the visuals can in context. Don't get me wrong; in the film itself, both of the visuals you described are incredibly evocative, but in the context of an encyclopedia, it's ultimately just filler. We're not trying to replace the film or spoil these details for people who haven't already seen it (spoilers aren't against policy when they're essential to the story, mind, but as with anything on Wikipedia, they shouldn't be included simply for their own sake). In particular, the phrase "He follows a line of employees singing a birthday song into another room," is incredibly superfluous, and is basically the definition of what that guide says should be cut.

However, I'm just one editor and this is just how I personally am interpreting and applying the guide in the context of this film. So, if you have an argument that the additions of these details is in some way essentially necessary to the plot summary, I'd suggest bringing this discussion to the talk page where other editors might be able to hear your case and weigh in on the issue. silviaASH (inquire within) 22:10, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Strand (talk • contribs) 01:39, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Unbeatable (video game)

Hello! I noticed Draft:Unbeatable (video game) previously redirected to a draft in your userspace. I've since converted that redirect into a draft in draftspace instead, so more people can contribute. Feel free to help out! ―Howard • 🌽³³ 15:28, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
