Barrow Hills School is not in Weybridge, it is in Witley, near Godalming Paul Crisell (talk) 19:50, 31 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
You are correct. According to Barrow Hills School website, the school was originally based near Weybridge but moved to Witley in 1952 long before Nolan attended. Unfortunately, the citation used is from The Nolan Variations book which describes the school as being in Weybridge and I do not have another citation for Nolan attending this school. I will leave it up to others to decide if it's OK to edit based on this. Musetaker (talk) 10:50, 11 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

The result of this discussion was Merge. Kautilyapundit (talk) 14:43, 1 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
My question is, why should we list unrealized projects in the first place? Wiki is not an information depository, such as IMDB. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 08:47, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Because they've received coverage from reputable sources and are of interest to readers, just like everything on this website. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 08:57, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Fair enough, though I also don't see the point of discussing this here. This discussion is about one article, not a whole series of them. I think WT:FILM would be the more appropriate venue for what you're bringing up. Now if you have an opinion on my merger proposal above, I'd love to hear it, but otherwise please move on. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 11:04, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Support, for the reasons above. This is career-relevant information, and it has citations, but there's not enough of it to justify a stand-alone page. Moonreach (talk) 17:43, 24 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Support per above. It is relatively short to warrant a stand-alone article and one of the films is already mentioned in the main article. FrB.TG (talk) 15:45, 26 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Support per above. Though interesting and quite relevant, it is a subsection at best, not an article. Mia yun Ruse (talk) 21:33, 26 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Merge Information on these can be in the main article. Cowlibob (talk) 17:14, 31 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".
The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
The article has missing information:
Please add:
Christopher Nolan has US, UK and Irish citizenship. The article is missing the Irish one but he himself confirmed he has it in a Q&A promoting Oppenheimer available under [1] at 7 minutes 10 seconds.
Please edit the last line in the first paragraph under „Early life“. 109.42.240.119 (talk) 23:13, 28 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I went to 7:10 in the linked video and did not hear him mention this. Can you confirm the timestamp? Pdubs.94 (talk) 02:45, 3 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Not done: Lack of reply from IP means this edit request is procedurally declined. For what it's worth, clicking the same link shows me various videos all of which could conceivably be construed to be a Q&A, so I don't even know which video the timestamp applies to. —Sirdog(talk) 05:05, 5 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I added this comment to the talk page: "See: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sB-JhaVzZ7I at timestamp 1m 32s, Cillian Murphy mentions that Christopher Nolan has an Irish passport."

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.
Hello! I suggest, or submit, that the references to the subject as "Sir" Christopher Nolan be emended, as the only sources cited as evidence of this apparent knighthood speak in the future tense, and therefore as having not actually been bestowed (as of time of submission). Ie, 'set to be given a knighthood', not actually given yet. 2406:2D40:40C7:3010:3181:1660:DD3C:F6D2 (talk) 07:47, 29 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Per Debrett's, "An honour may be used from the moment it has been announced in the Press. There is no need to wait until the recipient has received the accolade or been invested." (https://debretts.com/peerage/the-knightage/) He is Sir Christopher and his wife is Dame Emma as of the announcement - no need to wait for their investiture ceremony.
