message: Change "For the unrelated Las Vegas hotel and casino company, see MGM Resorts International." to "For the separate Las Vegas hotel and casino company, see MGM Resorts International."
Reason: MGM Resorts was created as a division of MGM, so it's not "unrelated." West5414 (talk) 14:52, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. From MGM Resorts International:  This doesn't mention MGM Resorts being a division of MGM, so they do appear to be mostly unrelated. Bsoyka (talk · contribs) 19:09, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

message: I would like to split off the History section into another article 'History of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer'. Does anyone have any objections? I would start it in my space or Draft. As it is, the Overview section is duplicate to the lead section. Alaney2k (talk) 22:14, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree that there are more problems than simply forking the History section. But, I still expect the History section to be very large and a worthy topic on its own. There is simply a large amount of history associated with MGM. We definitely need to address the film libraries section, etc. So, no, I am not suggesting stopping there.

replies: text: In that case improve the article first before making a major split.  For example why haven’t you suggested a “History of Ownership” section which would be separate from the actual studio production history? Or moving the Television and Cartoons section further down the page?  I’m still not convinced with your approach. Editors have suggested to remove or merge the Overview section with the lead/lede.  Fix that first then come back and tell editors how you’re going to improve the History section and the whole article overall. --GloMonsterTalk 04:00, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  So you are not really objecting to making the fork, just the process on how we should go about it. I would not put the whole article into Draft, that would lose edit history. You fork a 'History of' and you can track its edits. As for the rest, I am open to any kind of plan. Alaney2k (talk) 04:37, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I am opposed to a fork.  You just haven’t convinced me why the article would need a fork after it has been improved. Improve the History section first then make your arguments for a fork,  other than for aesthetic reasons or that it is too large.  It appears you’re hiding the issue rather than wanting to make the effort to make it better. You can reduce the size of the section through better editing; not by simply forking. I don’t think you should move forward with a fork until more editors have weighed in with their views  --GloMonsterTalk 05:16, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

message: The distribution section has this sentence which does not make any sense:
"Weinstein preferred the deal brought carriage on Showtime."
I suggest it is edited, but as its meaning is obfuscated, I am reluctant to guess what it should say.

message: In mid-October, on the 100th Anniversary of the Walt Disney Company, the man himself had his article be featured. Given that the 100th anniversary of MGM is coming up, what could we do to get the article to featured on the Main Page for its 100th? For reference, MGM's 100th anniversary is April 17, 2024.
