Best known?
editIf I were Mendes-Jones I’d be greatly appreciative of the work somebody is doing to boost his work’s online visibility, but they seem to be pushing it a bit. Can you really be “best known for” appearances in both a current TV series (a prominent role in Fallout) and a film (Havoc) that hasn’t been released yet? (Can you be “known” at all for nobody has seen for that matter?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.111.150 (talk) 07:04, May 28, 2024 (UTC)
- I only know him because of Fallout, so for me that is his "best known for". I understand the point that "best" and "only" do not match, but I suspect Mendes-Jones has a larger body of work not listed in this entry. The fix is not to take him to task, but to expand the entry to include their more obscure performances. This has been done, somewhat, with the inclusion of Wheel of Time for example. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomdarling (talk • contribs) 12:47, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
Possible to lock page?
editI've noticed repeated inconsistent vandalism regarding his pronouns, apparently performed without basic find/replace tools. Silly culture wars aside it's distracting and adds no value. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Protection_policy — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:283:100:73F0:8F70:B35E:BF56:7F3F (talk) 23:25, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- Agreed, it's especially egregious to go and vandalize the pronouns in a direct quote. I added a request, hopefully at least for a temporary lock Cursuviam (talk) 23:28, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have put under indefinite extended-confirmed protection, to be logged at CTOPS, and RevDel'ed the offending edits going back a month or so. Daniel Case (talk) 03:32, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
