Semi-protected edit request on 31 January 2020

I'm looking forward to add George Lucas'THX 1138 award nomination for the FIPRESCI prize at the 1971 Cannes Film Festival on the QUINZAINE DES RÉALISATEURS section.

Here's the source, which comes directly from the official site of the section.

https://www.quinzaine-realisateurs.com/edition/1971/

It's to be noted that on Williams Friedkin's Bug wikipedia page the prize appears. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug_(2006_film)#Awards

Looking forward to your response,

Santiago.

 Not done. The link you gave has no mention of any awards. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 16:21, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

EDIT: The page shows the nominees, not the winners. It gives the FIPRESCI prize to the winner. 2019 winner was The Lighthouse (https://www.quinzaine-realisateurs.com/en/edition/2019/) which you can see in the list of the official page on 2019 QUINZAINE DES RÉALISATEUR edition. On Film Affinity it's mentioned that it won the FIPRESCI award at the quinzaine des realisateurs: https://www.filmaffinity.com/ar/awards.php?award_id=cannes&year=2019

It also appears on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7984734/awards?ref_=tt_awd

Still  Not done. I have no idea why you're talking about last year's prize. The edit request was for the award for Lucas, and you haven't provided any sources that support this. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 01:02, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

What I was saying is that the official page doesn't announce the winners, just the selection. I mentioned "The Lighthouse" was the winner of the FIPRESCI Prize on 2019 as an example. It won (as you can see on IMDb) but wasn't mentioned on the page, even though it appears on the selection. THX 1138 was nominated, but didn't won.

 Not done: While the proposed edit request states that the word "nomination" should be used, the provided source says only that the film was "presented" but does not use the phrase "nominated". Please provide a source which uses the same phrase as what is requested. If the reason why the phrase presented was used rather than nomination because there is some protocol in place which determines how films are described or not described in these types of web listings (e.g, The Lighthouse), then please provide a source which states that protocol.  Spintendo  15:29, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Moreover, you are now auto-confirmed and can make the edit yourself, so you shouldn't be using {{edit semi-protected}} anymore. However, if you do so without any better sources, it will be reverted. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:31, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Why are Razzies counted under "Awards and Honors"? Shouldn't his demerits be kept to a separate section if they are considered noteworthy? 193.69.158.166 (talk) 10:03, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

I will second this. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 21:04, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Back in 2018 he said he was going to direct "experimental" films.

Yeah, what happened with that, or was the ones he made so under the radar? Or what now? 165.73.226.198 (talk) 13:55, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
