Overall: @LivelyRatification: Nice work. This is almost good to go, but there is an issue with one source above. Epicgenius (talk) 20:04, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

@Epicgenius: Thank you for a speedy review! Yeah, because of the topic of this article the sources sort of fall into two boxes -- Australian film coverage and Greek-Australian diaspora newspapers and while I checked the listing at WP:RSPLIST, I did not realise the guy behind it was a Stormfront poster. I'm not entirely sure if that makes it unreliable in this specific context (for example, this recent interview with a Greek Australian former politician has a lot of puffery, but I see no reason to doubt its reliability), but obviously it would be ideal to find another source. It's cited twice, one as calling The Taverna a black comedy, and the second as saying that the White Village was often a wrap location for Tsilimidos' productions. I swore this came up in multiple sources but it doesn't seem like it did, so I've removed the claim. Let me know if there's any other issues. --LivelyRatification (talk) 23:00, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

No problem, thanks for removing the claim. Looks good now. Epicgenius (talk) 03:21, 23 October 2025 (UTC)

@Epicgenius: FYI, I have readded the wrap location claim, attributing a different (but new to the article) source. I started a discussion over at the reliable sources noticeboard about this as I was unsure if it should be considered a reliable source, and another editor mentioned that an article at Australian Arts Review mentioned the White Village being a wrap location. I had looked at this article but decided not to add it as I was unsure of its reliability (not that I had any reason to doubt it, I'd just never heard of the source and it looked cribbed from the same press release that most of the other articles were, so there wasn't much new information). I figure this won't be a problem but just letting you know! — Preceding unsigned comment added by LivelyRatification (talk • contribs) 07:22, 23 October 2025 (UTC)
