message: Shouldn't the Nick Douglas controversy be in the HFPA article? It's not really directly related to the Golden Globes.

thread_title:  Nick Douglas controversy 

message: Ideally, "Golden Globe" would be a disambig page, pointing to
:* Golden Globe Award
:* Sunday Times Golden Globe Race
I actually did this, but reverted it again; the problem is that hundreds of movie articles link to "Golden Globe", not "Golden Globe Award".  So, at the moment, "Golden Globe" redirects straight to "Golden Globe Award"; so someone looking for the yacht race might well end up here, hence the notice at the top of this article.
Ideally, we should go through and change all the links to "Golden Globe" to point to one of the other two articles.  But there are so many... — Johantheghost 01:21, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't think it is so necessary that there be a disambig page for just two articles. Generally, the film awards are much more widely known than the yachting race and are linked to by many more articles. The current link seems adequate. Rather than change the links of 500+ pages, why not just change the links of the dozen or so (probably less) that point to the "Golden Globe" but reach the film awards?

message: As someone else also pointed out in the article's talk, you can't have english language films under this title. In individual years, there are various improvisations to cover up for this (foreign films, english language foreign films). I am doing large scale work in the years in film articles and one of my efforts is to give more awards. So, in Academy Award there is a Foreign Language Film Award, but there are no English language films there. Please clear out this point and if english films are included, move the page to a more appropriate title. Hoverfish 20:59, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

message: In the award articles (1st-63rd) there has been an effort to put images from films, then some got deleted, etc. I would suggest to follow the academy awards on this and place the Globe image (unframed) in each. Simple and gives a quality look to the page. Hoverfish 17:51, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: It was an award at one time, but this set of articles is so incomplete that a lot of the key aspects of the awards have been left out.

message: The Hollywood Foreign Press and the Golden Globes have garnered a fair amount of controversy in recent years, is there anyone familiar enough with all of it to comment on the main page? Filmmaker Vikram Jayanti directed a 2003 documentary on the subject entitled "The Golden Globes: Hollywood's Dirty Little Secret", and one may read about at this  link. --Frenk Melk 21:20, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, I was wondering why a "controversy" paragraph was lacking. I'd like to see some more sources on this as well, although the documentary should be sufficient to at least be mentioned. -- MiG 18:19, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

message: From the Controversy section: "winners were determined by lobby; if winners did not attend the event then another name would be chosen"
This seems somewhat important. A further explanation of this and how the system has changed since then belongs in the History section. Tad Lincoln (talk) 04:30, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Award by lobby?? 

message: I wasn't sure where else to put this, but a lot of the sub-articles (ie, 33rd Golden Globe Awards) are exclusively referenced with IMDB. As I understand, it is not considered best practice to use IMBD as a source (as with WP, much of it is user-generated). While doing research on one Golden Globe nominee, I found a couple better sources:
Digital Hit 
and
Hawaii Book Library 
The latter cite is from the World Public Library Organization and sourced from the World Heritage Encyclopedia, which must make it a much more reliable source than IMDB. I'm not particularly interested in the Golden Globe articles and don't have time to improve dozens of them. But anybody who is, and does, ought to look to incorporating these sources into these articles. <> Alt lys er svunnet hen (talk) 21:50, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: We should use the award site as the source. World Heritage Encyclopedia is a mirror of Wikipedia with some crowd sourcing, so worse than IMDB. Doug Weller (talk) 08:32, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

 Headline-1: 20 best, worst, most jaw-dropping Golden Globes moments

QUOTE: "Well, that was fun. The Golden Globes may not be the most venerable award show, but they proved again Sunday night that they're the most entertaining, surprising and all-around jaw-dropping. While some jokes by host Ricky Gervais hit a new low (much like some of those necklines on the evening gowns), a number of presenters were so funny that their 2016 remarks could double as their 2017 hosting audition." -- AstroU (talk) 11:44, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

message: A user with two different IPs is not convinced that Gary Oldman is notable enough and has tampered with the section on his criticisms about the ceremony. My attempts to persuade the user that Gary Oldman is notable have been unsuccessful. What should I do to settle this dispute? Crboyer (talk) 23:27, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The user has to be a Globes proponent. Oldman has been recognised by the Oscars, Emmys, BAFTAs and SAGs, and has had lead/central roles in massive films (JFK, Dracula, The Fifth Element, Air Force One, Harry Potter series, Dark Knight series, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) as well as cult hits (Sid & Nancy, True Romance, Leon: The Professional, Tinker Tailor). Anyone who watches film knows who Gary Oldman is, and his take on the Globes is absolutely notable. Malcum J (talk) 00:19, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Heard of a few of those, guy must have had 10th billing or something because I would have remembered him. I have trimmed down the paragraph about him and added an  tag, because "Gary Oldman" is simply not notable. 2.217.214.1 (talk) 05:33, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Obvious trolling. Oswald in JFK, Count Dracula in Dracula, Stansfield in The Professional, James Gordon in The Dark Knight etc. Not Tom Cruise, no, but big time nonetheless. 82.132.246.242 (talk) 20:36, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, apparently he has had like 3rd/4th billing in a few things, but he has been consistently outshone by co-stars and as such, has failed to become part of public consciousness. I guarantee if you ask 100 people on the street who "Gary Oldman" is, none of them will have a clue. I like the article the way it is now, but still have doubts about giving any mention at all to this non-notable actor. Re-added  tag, and again noted that he is not a major actor. 2.217.214.1 (talk) 13:48, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I see you've added "small-time" again. Referring to an Oscar-nominated actor with grosses topping $10.6 billion as "small-time" makes it difficult for me to see you as anything other than a troll. And a resounding "LOL" at Count Dracula, in Dracula, being "like 3rd/4th billing". Give up. Malcum J (talk) 16:49, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

message: In the wiki page GLAAD Media Award, there is a math issue and I am posting it here rather than on its talk page because in the talk page on GLAAD Media Award it asks us to post discussions here. In the categories of award section, it says that there are 27 English language categories and 12 Spanish categories (total of 39), it then goes on to say that there are 38 awards in total witch doesn't add up. Also when you count the categories listed they give 28 English language categories and 12 Spanish language categories witch means a total of 40. Which one is correct? Thanks! --Stary114 (talk) 20:04, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
