Challenging major revisions on 21 December 2020 to Development section
[edit]User:SeriousTalkTalk6077, an apparent WP:SPA, made drastic revisions to the Development section on 21 December 2020 which were not sourced.
Here is how the article looked like on 16 December 2020, and here is how it looked like on 21 December 2020 after those drastic revisions.
Over the ensuing four and a half years, various editors have attempted to clean up the Development section but it is still almost entirely unsourced garbage. No one has bothered to add any sources, probably because the Development section as written appears to be largely detached from "real world" film development as described in books and magazine articles on filmmaking (e.g., Kelly C. Crabb's book). The books I have found on filmmaking (e.g., Focal Press and CRC Press) describe a very different development process.
I propose to revert that section to the last good version on 16 December 2020 and then to start adding sources to bolster that earlier text, which is closer to how film development actually works. Any objections? Coolcaesar (talk) 15:53, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
- The books you cited seem like reputable sources. I would encourage you to proceed.—Anita5192 (talk) 17:07, 5 May 2025 (UTC)
