The Continental TV Show.

Can you please move my article back to the main space? The series has wrapped filming per https://www.small-screen.co.uk/john-wick-prequel-series-has-finished-shooting/ .. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 05:05, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Also from Mel Gibson @ https://wegotthiscovered.com/tv/john-wick-prequel-series-the-continental-has-finished-shooting/ ScienceAdvisor (talk) 05:06, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
@ScienceAdvisor: Afraid not. Neither Small Screen and We Got This Covered are considered reliable, so we would need to await confirmation from a reliable source that confirms filming has begun. Also, when I made the move this morning, I had a brain fart and forgot that Draft:The Continental (miniseries) already existed. Please merge your content over to that page, thanks.

Did you look for other sources? Seems to me if you googled before moving the page you would have found them.. Also, the article quotes the star of the show saying filming was finished. In this particular case, that seems sufficient and could certainly be backed up by other sources. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 05:45, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

(edit conflict) I did, I couldn't find any reliable sources, and the article at that time had no sources that indicated filming had begun. See WP:BURDEN, the onus is on you to prove that the series has begun filming. As for Mel Gibson, We Got This Covered does not include the actual quote (just the paraphrased version), and even if they did we still wouldn't be able to use it unless another RS indepedently verifies the report. You can see how We Got This Covered is of poor quality with this report, they're saying that Mel Gibson has finished shooting his portion of the series, and that apparently means the entire series has wrapped filming? This is one of the reasons why they can't be trusted. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:50, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
Doesn't seem reliable. Their About page has no evidence of editorial oversight, and their social media accounts are not verified. You can find a list of reliable film sources at WP:FILMRS. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:57, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
@InfiniteNexus How about Deadline?? https://deadline.com/2022/12/project-artemis-adds-trio-to-cast-1235203717/ ScienceAdvisor (talk) 05:57, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
That's exactly what we needed. Please add the source to Draft:The Continental (miniseries), and I'll move the page. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:59, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
@InfiniteNexus That is a different version that has substantially less editorial content than the page you removed.. I would appreciate it if you would restore the page that was there before that people had begun working on.. It shouldnt have been moved since just checking the news for the show under IMDB is how I easily came across the source. The show only needed to begin filming so I am not sure why you were arguing about the show having been wrapped. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 06:06, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
Several things:
  • The convention is to use the draft that was created the earliest. If you had looked at The Continental (miniseries), you would have seen a warning not to create an article because a draft already exists at Draft:The Continental (miniseries). Sadly, because Draft:The Continental (upcoming TV series) did not exist, no warning appeared when you turned The Continental (upcoming TV series) into an article. As I wrote earlier, please merge (combine) the content on The Continental (2023 TV series) onto Draft:The Continental (miniseries), and then we can move that to the mainspace.
  • My move earlier today was in accordance with WP:V, WP:ONUS, and WP:NFTV. In order for the article to exist in the mainspace, there would have to be evidence from reliable sources on the article that confirmed the start of filming, but at that time no sources saying that were present on the article. It was not my responsibility to look for sources, per WP:BURDEN. Now I thank you for finding that Deadline source, but without that source the draft could not have stayed in the mainspace.
  • My comment about We Got This Covered incorrectly summarizing that the show has wrapped filming was to demonstrate that the site is not reliable. Also note that your initial comment at the top of this thread says Can you please move my article back to the main space? The series has wrapped filming.

We can sit here and play wikipedia attorneys and argue principals established on several different articles including that articles shouldnt be deleted for lack of citations if they are available.. There are several others. if you are going to just come in, remove articles under false pretense with no research and then switch them out for inferior versions.. I dont think i want credit for the participation.. I find this distasteful and the fact you are arguing your position instead of admitting the show finished production almost a year ago and the article was fine the way it was is irritating. I hope in the future you will be more aware before you recklessly edit. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 07:51, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
Again, the onus was on you, not me, to prove that the series had begun filming. When I saw that this redirect was turned into an article, I looked for sources on the article that indicated filming had begun, and found none. So I made a quick Google search, but could not find any sources either at first glance. So I moved the page to draftspace because there was no evidence NFTV had been met. I don't believe that course of action was improper or unjustified.
Now you have provided a source that confirms filming has begun, so I have moved the article back to the mainspace. The matter should now be resolved, with the only outstanding issue being the duplicate drafts, which I have invited you to remedy by merging your content onto the live article. If there is anything else you need clarified, please let me know. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:22, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
I dont really know why you are continuing this line of thought.. You moved the article w/o doing any research.. I left a message on the talk page for the article saying it had moved into production and that is why I had published the article. If you had any manners, you would have asked on the talk section before removing the page. Instead of admitting that you made a mistake, you decided to make it personal and restore a different version of the article. You did this not once, but twice. All that was required was that filming had to begin. I was giving your sources that showed filming had finished and you decided in the face of overwhelming evidence to try and defend yourself by refuting my sources and refusing to do a google search. Someone who seems to have as much experience as you editing articles about film should have been able to confirm production had started instead of turning this into whatever this is.. Please stop with this conversation and stop contacting me.. I removed the page from list of pages so .. Im done with it.. ScienceAdvisor (talk) 18:23, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
@ScienceAdvisor: I'm sorry you think that, but you are misconstruing my actions. I have explained several times why I made the move, why it was up to you and not me to prove that filming had begun, and why the old draft should be the prime copy of the article. At this point, it's becoming an WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT situation, where you are repeating unfounded claims that I moved the page to draftspace because I "don't have manners" and "decided to make it personal". Finally, please be aware that on Wikipedia, collaboration is essential and conflicts are inevitable, you must be willing to engage in civil discourse in order to contribute constructively. Thank you.

  • Production had started so I created a page. Actually, production had finished 8 months ago ..
  • I created a talk page, I left that info on the talk page.
  • You deleted the page and said there was no evidence that production had started
  • Once you deleted the page I showed you the Amazon announcement that showed they had added it to the upfront announcement which should have been enough, but you didnt like that even though it specifically states on WP:NFTV that is acceptable.
  • I gave you two sources directly quoting the star of the show saying production had wrapped but you didnt like them and didnt do even a google search yourself again.
  • Once I found the deadline article, I republished the article and you removed it again.
  • You then published a lesser version of the article from draft which incorrectly lists the show as a mini-series. There is no evidence that this show will not have a second season and is limited to 3 episodes.
  • Now you are making false accusations.. If wikipedia is a collaborative platform, why would someone with the entire MCU and DCEU release schedule not leave a note on the talk page and ask where I had seen that production had started instead of moving the draft? This isnt a hard subject, a simple google search provided me with several results and IMDB aggregates every news story and publishes it on their page.
  • You keep saying the burden was on me to prove that the information existed, that isnt the case. Wikipedia routinely puts emphasis on the fact that a page should not be deleted simply because information wasn't cited if it is available. If you are going to impose your will on a subject matter, take responsibility and create the article and move the information yourself. You invalidated hours of work for no justifiable reason and then asked me to help improve an article I dont even see as published correctly but you have imposed your will such that I couldnt do anything about it if I wanted to..

Until you found the Deadline (or Amazon) source, there was no evidence on the article that filming had begun. In other words, the article did not include a source that says filming has begun, all we had was your word. Your writing on the talk page that filming had begun and the two unreliable sources with Mel Gibson's "quote" were not acceptable evidence that filming had begun; per WP:VNT, we needed actual, reliable sources. That is why I restored the redirect. When you found the Deadline article, I immediately asked you to merge the content you wrote to the draft that already existed, per wiki convention. You declined, instead asking me to restore your version. I'm not sure why you would prefer that to merging your content to the older draft, which multiple editors were already working on.

As for collaboration, I left a note on your talk page so you could have a chance to respond. Collaboration does not restrict to discussing prior to taking action. Our discussion was productive and I assumed the matter was resolved once you found the Deadline source, but you instead declared that I was "making it personal" and asked that I restore your draft. You express frustration at your "hours of work" being "invalidated", and yet you refuse to integrate your work into the live article. May I ask why that is?

Arrival

Please discuss your recent changes at the Talk Page of Arrival; specifically those re: MoS changes of character names from surname to first names, which is against convention. Please do not revert back before a discussion has been held; see also EDIT WAR and BRD. Thank you, GenQuest "scribble" 06:27, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

@GenQuest: Yes, I was typing on the article's talk page as you posted this. Though please also note that WP:BRD is an essay and has no binding force; the only guideline that must be followed is WP:3RR. InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:31, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Edit revert on Google Chrome

I was reverting an edit on Google Chrome, but there are conflicts so I reverted your edit first. This does not mean I disagree with you edit, I just prefer automated reverts. Thanks for your contributions! Kidonng (talk) 12:25, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Gotcha, no worries. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:58, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
