Talk:The Search for Robert Johnson

Film length, VHS length, DVD length edit

Some sources say 52 minutes, which makes sense for a TV broadcast, and agrees with the VHS length. DVD releases indicate 72 minutes. But the DVD-based online video, hosted at the manufacturer's website, is 52 minutes. I'm assuming that 52 is the actual time. --Lexein (talk) 07:01, 7 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

External links are confusing edit

I don't understand how a documentary can list the Category:Slide guitarists!! Aren't those categories there to establish factual information about the musicians in their biographies? I couldn't believe Robert Johnson was listed in that Category and then this documentary was, too! Can someone clarify policy here, because there are a lot of other categories that have nothing to do with thia article but have everything to do with the musician's biographies. Thank you. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 03:14, 28 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Aw, don't yell (!!). If there is a mistake in the categories, feel free to correct. I claim no absolute authority or expertise about applying category wikilinks. In truth, when creating this article, I copied RJ's categories over verbatim, as I previously indicated in a hidden comment. FYI in the hierarchy of pillar/arbcom/policy/guideline/essay/consensus, "policy" hasn't been breached here, some guideline or other may have been. When a documentary contains music, what cat does it go in? --Lexein (talk) 02:26, 30 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

WP:FILM Assessment edit

Per a request at Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Assessment, I have reviewed this article to determine if it should be upgraded from Start class. As the article only consists of the synopsis and reception, I don't believe this qualifies for C class. I would recommend adding additional details such as production, home media, splitting off the awards from the reception into a separate accolades section, and including any other relevant details that are available about the documentary. Consider taking a look at the Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Spotlight articles for ideas for expansion. This article is well-sourced, see if any other details can be harvested from the current sourcing for further article expansion. Once expanded, this article can be upgraded to C class. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talkcontrib) 21:28, 11 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hm. No production information is available. No awards were granted. Home media is covered. Oh well. --Lexein (talk) 22:41, 11 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Credits edit

Here are all the credits. We do not usually list "Associate producers", and no "writer" is listed. http://imgur.com/a/HOXLK#0 --Lexein (talk) 18:17, 30 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
