In the section 2005-2017, "An analysis of Academy Award acceptance speeches from 1966 to 2016 found that Weinstein had been thanked or praised in 34 speeches—as many times as God, and second only to Steven Spielberg (with 43 mentions).", I feel like "-as many times as God," is unneeded and doesn't serve the neutral tone of Wikipedia. Do the rest of you agree? MLC 30975 (talk) 15:35, 9 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've changed the lead sentence to conform to the correct order of English adjectives (age comes before origin). Technically, this introduces an ambiguity as to whether he's a former producer or a former American. Since the latter isn't common wording, I went with "former American film producer", but if anyone objects, I'd recommend going with "former producer of American films" rather than the previous wording, as it sounds very wrong. – Robin Hood(talk)14:11, 14 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Any idea why the famous Courtney Love quote is not included here? It showcases how pervasive the knowledge of Weinstein's abuses where in 2005 well before he was indicted. Here's some RS: CNN[1], Slate[2], CBS[3], Billboard[4], and People[5].
level-5 vital article is rated B-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
