Talk:She's the Man

message: This article's information is taken verbadum from the movie's official site. I mean they just took the plot synopsis and copied and pasted. This seems more like a piece of advertising than an encyclopedia article.
:Do you really think this movie even deserves an ancyclopedia article? It looks awful and will probably be on DVD in two months.
::Every theatrically-released deserves an article; Wikipedia is not paper so there's no risk of running out of space.  The movie was pretty sub-par, but considerably worse works of media have articles such as Waterworld, American Idol, Gigli, and Donnie Darko (yeah, I went there).  And yes it probably will be on DVD within a few months and I will buy it just for the Amanda Bynes swimsuit scene in the first five minues unless I can find a place to download that scene first. 4.89.240.192 13:53, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Holy ****... I'm watching this movie, and I'm at the part where she/he meets the headmaster, and who is he, but David Cross(Tobias Fünke)!  Tinlv7 01:52, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I deleted the error which incorrectly stated that Viola and Sebastian's mother called Viola's cell phone (following the tarantula scene) to leave a message for Sebastian.  The phone wasn't the cell phone, but the dorm room's landline, which is why the message was heard on the dorm's answering machine. --NCC-1701 (USS Enterprise) 00:04, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

message: In the plot summary, it says that Paul got with Duke's friend Andrew at the end. Is this true?
:Odd that you didn't need to sign your comment... well, Andrew was just sitting there closely with some dude, smiling and stuff. The Tangmeister (talk) 00:19, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

message: I don't think it's necessary to list all these errors and trivia when they can be found on IMDB.  It looks like someone just copy/pasted them. Darry2385 16:46, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm totally technologically illiterate but I just noticed that when you click on James Kirk in the cast list, it redirects to James Kirk from Star Trek instead of the Canadian actor. Maybe someone could fix that?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cubfin (talk • contribs) 01:38, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

message: : We cannot accept IMDB as a reliable source for the claim you made here. The guideline WP:USERG covers this in detail. I recommend you find a better source if you'd like this claim to exist in the article. I will remove it for now, but if you'd like to discuss in more detail or have any concerns, I'll be watching this page. Thank you. --GoneIn60 (talk) 22:11, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Why not? According to the blessed rules, this is disputed, but not inappropriate. I think it's pretty rich that a user keeps on undoing my edits til I find a source, I find a source and I'm told it's not good enough... despite being not trivia or something unverified, but an actual movie connection.

replies: text: You were asked to find a reliable source, and IMDB does not qualify. Any random person can add content on IMDB, which is an issue that makes that source unreliable. Take your time and find a reliable alternative. If it's important enough to mention, then some other entity has reliably published this information. --GoneIn60 (talk) 03:27, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Found another source. Fireflyfanboy (talk) 03:31, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Carefully read that source. It says She's the Man and Just One of the Guys were inspired by Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. That source does not adequately support the claim that She's the Man "is a remake of the 1985 film  Just One of the Guys". You cannot draw a direct correlation between the two. That's a form of WP:SYNTHESIS and isn't permitted.Furthermore, I'm not sure you fully understand the three-revert rule. You've crossed that line and then some. To avoid crossing that line, the best course of action is to wait until a consensus is reached on the talk page before editing the article again. --GoneIn60 (talk) 03:52, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Per the conversation above, I have removed the line again. To reiterate, the Refinery29 source you added does not verify what you have claimed it does. However, I've retained this source as the content about Twelfth Night wasn't itself referenced and this at least satisfies that (presuming Refinery29 is an acceptable RS).

text: User is also continually making the same claims on the article for Just One of the Guys, along with suggesting that two unrelated films are sequels.  Until we have reliable sources for this, we cannot claim any connection between any of them.  See Talk:Just One of the Guys#Sequels and remakes.  --woodensuperman 08:40, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :She's the Man's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "afi":
From Date Night: 
From 21 Jump Street (film): 
From Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2: 
From Shrek 2: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 21:21, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

message: The wiki-page for reverting an edit suggests mentioning what is going on in the talk page, so here goes - a couple of recents edits on this page seem to have simply changed the date from 2006 to 2005.  It's not clear why, but the changes are completely uncited - and infact, by editing urls broke the citations which substantially proved the 2006 release date.  Unfortunately I couldn't "undo" edits due to conflicting ones, but I think everything is correct now.  If someone wants to contest the release date, I'm open to looking at your citation here.

replies: text: The official theatrical release date is March 17, 2006, per BOM and The Numbers. As for undoing the disruptive edits, seems to me like you got all the ones that counted. Here's a comparison of revisions which shows that dates and refs are nearly identical today as they were back in Sept 2023 before the disruption started. --GoneIn60 (talk) 10:30, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
