Mistake on article Terry Gilliam (Monty Python)?

I already asked this on the article's Talkpage but so far no response: Terry Gilliam won an Academy Award as Best Supporting Actress for his role in The Fisher King? Don't think so... According to the Wikitable "Academy awards" he did. anyone? Equinoxepart5 (talk) 14:16, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

• I think what that means is that an actress in that movie (Mercedes Ruehl) won the award. I don't know if it is customary to list all that with the director. Spielberg's article must be huge, if that's the case. Drmies (talk) 14:19, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

Ehm... yeah... This reads as if Terry won the award though... Remove it? Equinoxepart5 (talk) 14:22, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

Where are you seeing this? I cannot find the table you are talking about. DuncanHill (talk) 14:25, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

Sorry, I see what you mean now. The table should include the names of the nominees, or restrict itself to awards for which Gilliam himself was nominated. DuncanHill (talk) 14:28, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

Imho, the ones for which Gilliam himself was nominated. Equinoxepart5 (talk) 14:30, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
