Talk:The Duel (2010 film)

Latest comment: 3 years ago by Mragsdale in topic Summary?

These edits added content copied from the film's official press kit ([1]). This violates Wikipedia's policies on spam and copyright violations (the text is copyrighted). Please don't add it again.Prezbo (talk) 06:22, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Theduel (talk) 07:10, 25 June 2010 (UTC) I would quote the reference link with the text to actual official document ([2]) published by the makers of movie on the website. hope thsi will not violate the Wikipedia's SPAM policies and guidelines.Reply

No, this is still against Wikipedia's policies. It's still using Wikipedia for advertising, and it's still plagiarism.Prezbo (talk) 07:17, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
I also suggest you read WP:COI.Prezbo (talk) 07:22, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Theduel (talk) 07:25, 25 June 2010 (UTC) this is just an initiative to publish the correct and more vital information in WikiPedia. What parts would you suggest to remove from the updated version?Reply

All of it. Read the things I linked to above. Even if you just copied a paragraph from the press kit into the article rather than the whole thing it would still be in violation of those rules. If people want to read the press kit they can go to the official website, that's not what people come to Wikipedia for.Prezbo (talk) 07:30, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Theduel (talk) 07:33, 25 June 2010 (UTC) On so you want me to remove the part which I have taken from Presskit, then it would work. Am I correct?Reply

As far as I can tell everything you added was copied from the press kit, what did you add that wasn't?Prezbo (talk) 07:35, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Theduel (talk) 07:39, 25 June 2010 (UTC)then I think you haven't read the press kit properly and only guessing on that. Only the Synopsis part was taken from Press kit which can be changed. Also I would suggest you to discuss first before making any undo.Reply

It's all obviously from some kind of promotional material. Whether it was copied from the press kit or some other advertising the problems raised are the same.Prezbo (talk) 07:46, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Theduel (talk) 07:55, 25 June 2010 (UTC) Your argument is not justified. If this is the case then on Wikipedia there should be no "reference" option at all. You are stopping public to share information in this free medium.Reply

Read the rules I linked to above, and maybe some other Wikipedia policies, and you'll see that this isn't my opinion but just the way this site functions. Wikipedia isn't for advertising.Prezbo (talk) 07:58, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

What is on here? Why my changes have been removed? Wikipbonly (talk) 09:08, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Did you read everything above? Since you added the same content that's being discussed above, the same problems apply to it.Prezbo (talk) 09:12, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

So you are the one, who created this page. Thats good Prezbo. However the way you shared information is incorrect. I suggest you should refine it for 'better reader experience'. You can take notes from the other guy; whose changes you removed. In this discussion the actual reader is suffering Wikipbonly (talk) 09:30, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Nothing I can really respond to here. Read the pages I linked to above if you don't understand why your edit was undone.Prezbo (talk) 09:32, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Poorly Written

edit

Who is Kirilin? He is discussed but we are never told how, when, or why he is introduced into the story. Who is Kirikin? He too is discussed but we are never told how he is introduced into the story. One particular sentence runs on and needs to be broken up: "Nadya cries and regretting the way Kirikin is offensive and begged him for not pursuing her to sleep with him but she gave up and asked Kirilin "where?"" I cannot fix it because I had never heard of this story prior to reading this entry. N0w8st8s (talk) 00:52, 23 March 2012 (UTC)n0w8st8sReply

Summary?

edit

The plot summary is identical to that of the original story. Is this a 100% faithful adaptation? And if so, does it need to have such a detailed plot summary? Mragsdale (talk) 20:07, 17 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
