Hi @MrsSnoozyTurtle - thanks for looking at this! However, with all respect, I disagree with this deletion nomination. It is undisputable that Jakob fulfills 3/4 criteria for creatives according to wiki standards and a simple google search will show you that:
-he is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors; and
-he is a person who is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique; and
-he has played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, specific notable projects are attributed directly to him. Dapah1 (talk) 14:59, 11 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi again! I am removing the deletion proposal given you haven’t replied. Thanks. Dapah1 (talk) 00:00, 24 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Changes in Coup! - corrected spelling

edit
Hi Dapah1,
Looking at the changes you've made in the article's text just a short time ago (=> https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Coup%21&diff=1231826744&oldid=1231180146):
=> corrected summarized to US spelling to be consistent with rest of wiki text.
According to Wikipedia's policy WP:SPELLING, Commonwealth English spelling is regarded just as acceptable as US English spelling. I'd be first to admit that mixing "summarise" and "summarize" side-by-side in the same paragraph (or even worse, in the same sentence) would look sloppy and inconsistent - but that was NOT the case with the changes made by me in "Reception" section, was it? So why do it? 😕
In addition to everything else, the article's WP:Lead now looks quite different from how leads of other film-related articles look (with information in the third paragraph you've just added typically placed in the article's opening paragraph and before the paragraph about film's premiere and release info)... 🤔
Cheers,
Szagory (talk) 19:04, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Just to mention quickly that I've moved the third paragraph into the lead's opening paragraph. 😉
But your changing the heading of "Premise" section to "Plot" still doesn't look like a proper description for WP:Plot to me - it's still just a brief outline of what the film is about, isn't it? With little in it about actual events of the film... So just as a suggestion, perhaps it makes sense to rename it back to "Premise" (with
tag added to it)? The last sentence in particular - about escalation "into boisterous class warfare." - appears to impart undue levity, and it makes for a rather abrupt ending of the section. 🤔
👉 I'd appreciate it greatly if you restored my original spelling of "summarise", mate - my making that correction myself would look petty and small-minded, but at the same time I would just never write "summarize", and those were my words written by me, after all.
Take care,
Szagory (talk) 19:51, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
hi again
thanks for the speedy response! all good. Its a U.S movie, hence why summarize felt more appropriate. I'm ok with switching it back. In terms of page structure - I looked at pages like Saltburn and a few other examples and additions seemed on par with those. I'm cool with what you proposed as well! 72.226.106.118 (talk) 21:05, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi user:Dapah1,
Just wanted to add quickly that after your removing words like "positive" from my changes (BTW, I chose to describe reviews as "positive" and "negative" on the basis of how reviews were rated on RT), selecting unnecessarily sensationalist and unduly positive words from "Bottom Line" of Leslie Felperin's review ("Fun! Amusing! Radical!") didn't look all that balanced and impartial to me (overall tone of her review is decidedly aloof and temperate) - so I selected her summarising words from => https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/coup_2023/reviews instead...
And I've already changed your "summarize" to "sum up" to put paid to all this linguistic malarkey. 😉
Have a good evening on your side of the Pond,
Szagory (talk) 21:13, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
