Now, HAPPY EDITING! bunni (talk) 13:23, 9 June 2014 (EDT)
Cujo
Do you actually have screenshots for Cujo? If you have it on DVD and need help screencapping, please consult the IMFDB Screencapping Guide. --Ben41 (talk) 06:51, 14 June 2014 (EDT)
Actor entries
Are you actually planning on creating a page for Brake? --Funkychinaman (talk) 00:06, 16 June 2014 (EDT)
creating pages
Please try to complete your first few pages before going on to creating new pages. It is best to be prepared with screenshots before you start a new page because there have been a lot of pages that were started and were never completed. Also, when creating the summaries for films, please keep to a general summary of the plot and if there are any facts that pertain to the use of weapons. --Ben41 (talk) 17:58, 16 June 2014 (EDT)
Other edits
I've reverted some edits you've made recently, I will address them below -
- The extra variants on the Glock page are unnecessary, as they're too new to have appeared yet in any media, likely too new to even be in movie armory inventory. We don't need every Glock variant ever made listed. And while some Glock variants are listed that have not yet had entries, they are there as placeholders - most of those are in film armories so it's only a matter of time before they are seen used. Furthermore, your listings don't even have images so there's no reference to properly identify them should they even appear. Big sets of text describing the weapon aren't enough, just like descriptions of the weapon aren't quite enough for film pages - we need images. In any event, the listings are unnecessary, thus I removed them.
- Your edits on the Halloween II (1981) page - While there's nothing wrong with it, it's not really necessary to have categorization on a page with only three guns. But it is necessary, however, to have the proper Table Of Contents format code, which for some reason, you decided to remove. I changed that edit back. The categories I kept, since there's no real reason to remove it. I really don't see the import of either edit though, especially the latter.
I hope you understand I changed your edits since they aren't really in-line with things. In the case of the TOC code removal, it's incorrect, plain and simple. As for adding gun variant listings on gun pages, might be better to initiate a discussion on the relevant discussion page prior to making such additions, especially if the weapon has had no appearances. Just some thoughts. StanTheMan (talk) 23:50, 16 June 2014 (EDT)
- If you want to revert progress-based edits on the Glock page, whatever. But reverting a constructive edits can be considered destructive. (Votesmall (talk) 15:29, 17 June 2014 (EDT))
Throttle
Do you actually have screenshots for this film? You've created 4 new pages and only added one screenshot to any of them (does Brake have any more weapons in it?) In the future, please have your screenshots ready if you are making a page for new movie. Otherwise, the page will probably be deleted. --Ben41 (talk) 18:06, 26 June 2014 (EDT)
- Sorry, I just want to make progress. I can't log on too often so I need to work in short bursts. (Votesmall (talk) 23:48, 26 June 2014 (EDT))
Dark Knight
Please try to limit your descriptions to actual facts that can be backed up and avoid conjecture. --Ben41 (talk) 01:48, 16 October 2014 (EDT)
Table Of Contents removals
You did this again on the Man on Fire page - Why do you keep doing this? It's against the recognized formatting standards. StanTheMan (talk) 22:26, 18 January 2015 (EST)
- Oh, ok. Sorry if I seemed harsh. BTW, it's customary when you receive a message on your talk page you reply on the posters talk page so they know you've replied (as people aren't (by default) notified of any replies outside of their talk page; if you reply on your page, the other poster might not know unless they are constantly checking your talk page, which many don't do, nor are inclined to do).

Wolf Creek
Hello, Votesmall! You added information about revolver in the Wolf Creek. I watched this film and I didn't saw any appearance of a handgun. User, who created this article didn't saw it too. If you found it in this film, please upload at least one screenshot of it. Pyramid Silent (talk) 14:31, 16 February 2015 (EST)
- You must have seen the theatrical version. The director's cut features the revolver being loaded and quickly lost. I do indeed have a screenshot software but it only works on the internet, so I'll have to figure out a way to get the DVD to play online. When I can, I'll post some screenshots right away. But trust me, it's in there. Just look it up. (Votesmall (talk) 20:30, 17 February 2015 (EST))
