Talk:Death of Brian Wells

message: Why has no one mentioned the movie 30 minutes or Less? The plot of the movie seems rather similar to what happened in this article. Including the who inheritance thing.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.160.219.153 (talk) 00:41, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I see a  tag has been added. It looks about right to me.
The article is about 15,000 words. MOS:LEADLENGTH says that for article under 15,000, the lede should be one or two paragraphs; for 15,000 to 30,000 words, two or three paragraphs.
The two paragraphs we have here, both of which are appropriately sized, looks fine for this article. I can't see what material ought to be cut, either.
In the spirit of WP:BRD, I'm going to revert the tag, but if anyone disagrees, reinstate it and discuss here. Please do not reinstate without discussion, however. TJRC (talk) 21:33, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lead too long? 

message: Don’t know how to add links to other wikis. We have an article in de.wiki, simply "Brian Welles"... can someone add the link to the languages section/switch? Thxs Foerdi (talk) 20:33, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: It's done via Wikidata. I've opened a question there: "Linking two sets of articles on the same subjects, but where different language wikipedias use differing titles?". TJRC (talk) 22:08, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not unusual, on Wikidata you just type in (or copy/paste) the name of the article in question, even if it's a different name. The real problem is that Wikidata has two entries for Brian Wells - murder of Brian Wells and plain Brian Wells, with the "murder of Brian Wells" one being oldest. I have no idea how to get that corrected. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 03:17, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Ooh, never mind, they have a gadget just for that. I've merged the two and now all the interwiki links should be showing correctly. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 03:31, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks like your merge was reverted, on the premise that the event and the person are different things. I personally feel that the subject matter of all seven articles across the seven wikipedias are the same subject, even if the title is different, but am not sufficiently familiar with wikidata to understand how that's handled there. It is frustrating to have another project's policies negatively impact Wikipedia, though. TJRC (talk) 22:08, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't particularly like Wikidata, so I have to admit I have less than zero interest in figuring out the strict details of why they've arranged things that way, much less actually going to have an argument with the people who spend their time there. If they want to have stupid redundancies, they can go ahead and have stupid redundancies. Blugh. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:28, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I like the idea of Wikidata, but when it fails, it fails hard, and it's so tough to get a problem fixed. In the meantime, I've added the non-en pages manually, to bypass the Wikidata-generated problem, at least on enwiki. TJRC (talk) 04:39, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  I have fixed it the right way using the Interwiki extra template. Bovlb (talk) 16:16, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
