Recent edit warring over cast list

Is there any particular reason that an IP editor and Smaugh (talk · contribs) are edit warring to include Colin Morgan in the infobox and lead? He does not seem to be the star of the film. The infobox is generally restricted to people who are credited in the billing block on the film's official poster. I tried looking for the poster online, but I gave up after a few minutes. Can anyone post a URL where we can see it? The person who added the infobox did not see fit to include Morgan, and I'm inclined to assume in good faith that this editor had access to the poster. The other change is to push Morgan to the top of the cast list. This is a really contentious change, and it's the main reason why I reverted the latest edit that does this. Pushing the actor to the top of the cast list leads me to believe that this is an attempt to promote to actor. Please note that Wikipedia is not here to promote people.

The same editors are doing similar to Testament of Youth (film) where the film poster is legible; six actors' names appear above the title, Morgan is not one of them.

Sometimes fans get a little obsessed. Nedrutland (talk) 08:32, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Colin Morgan is on the poster of Testament of Youth (film). You use the wrong poster. The official poster contain the name of Colin Morgan and not the name of Taron Egerton... (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9kjhQUtqycw/VGH0_IJEB0I/AAAAAAAAACw/AFYs-F8Va7M/s1600/testament_of_youth_banner.jpg) And I don't stop to edit the page And if you block me it's stupid... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smaugh (talk • contribs) 17:00, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

So, even on the poster of Testament of Youth that you prefer, Morgan only has fifth billing, not first. Nedrutland (talk) 18:16, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

First his name is Colin Morgan not only Morgan... Then there is no ordre on the poster... So I continue to edit the pages... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smaugh (talk • contribs) 18:24, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

@Smaugh: Well, I'm glad that you've posted here. Now, maybe you can explain why you want to put Colin Morgan's name first in the cast list? Most sources don't even mention him. Also, is he listed in the billing block of this film's poster? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:27, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

As well as the posters, there is http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfilms/film/testament_of_youth If you look at the credits you will see that Morgan's name is only sixth of the actors (after Hayley Atwell). Nedrutland (talk) 23:45, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

I put Colin Morgan's name first because he deserves to be more recognize because he is an outstanding actor and I find not mention him in the movie page is not respect him! If some sources don't mentionned him it's because there are stupid and don't respect him! There is no order on the poster for the names... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smaugh (talk • contribs) 11:59, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Well, don't do that. Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion or a soapbox to air your opinions. Wikipedia depends on reliable sources to determine what to cover and how much coverage to give it. This kind of undue emphasis on a single actor is not supported by Wikipedia's policies. If you want to promote an actor, do it on your personal blog.

It's not promoting an actor it's just justice... And I continue to edit the pages... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smaugh (talk • contribs) 14:45, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Overkill

The Krays didn't terrorise London; they were criminals, they killed other criminals, but nobody uninvolved. I'll leave it at that for now, may correct the article later. Maelli (talk) 13:52, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Filming

I was disappointed that nothing was included about the filming techniques used for Hardy's dual role. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 23:28, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
