Fair use rationale for Image:Trulys.jpg

Image:Trulys.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Original Research tag

Truly's name is very much the opposite of the usual Fleming female character names, being innocent and rather treacly, although still a pun[original research?].

So, what is the original research being tagged here? Female character names in the Bond films were often double entendres. Is it original research to observe that Truly Scrumptious is a pun? I think not. Probably the best claim to being original research is claiming Fleming was involved in the naming. After all, I haven't read enough Fleming to see if the pattern originated with him or those who adapted his work to the screen. --BlueNight (talk) 03:30, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Film: horrible 2nd graf

As it turns out, Truly is the daughter of a wealthy candy factory owner, Lord Scrumptious. When Truly visits her father at his factory the next day, she sees Caractacus there, waiting to show her father a product he has created. During this unexpected meeting she learns Caractacus is an inventor who has managed to produce 'flawed' candy tubes full of holes, a product he plans to try and sell to her father as a novelty which he calls 'Toot Sweets', as they can be played like a flute. Caractacus cannot understand why the holes keep appearing and Truly casually states that the boiling point of his sugar is too high. Caractacus, who hasn't realised yet that Truly is Lord Scrumptious' daughter, thinks that Truly is being an interfering busybody again, and starts to argue with her once more. At this point Lord Scrumptious enters, and Caractacus realises who Truly is. He thinks that he has ruined his chances of selling the sweets, when Truly unexpectedly supports him and helps him to make a successful pitch to her father (with the help of the song and dance routine ("Toot Sweets"). Lord Scrumptious is won over, but just as he is about to buy the product from Caractacus, a pack of neighborhood dogs, responding to the high pitched music notes produced by the sweets attracting the dogs, descend on the factory and Lord Scrumptious furiously fires Caractacus and ejects the Potts family from his premises. However, Truly, who is becoming attracted to Caractacus, realises that the incident with the dogs was an accident and is still in favour of the sweets.

The above passage as it exists now is written in such a manner that may re-order events as implied here, misinterpret the actual events, or invent them out of thin air. At least five points are factually incorrect: 1) When Potts arrives at the candy factory, Truly is helpful. 2) She doesn't remark about the boiling part of sugar here. 3) Potts doesn't appear to think that Truly is being a busybody. 4) They do not argue here. 5) Lord Scrumptious does not enter the lobby where Potts and Truly run into one another. Potts enters his office at Truly's behest.

Getting one, maybe two, points slightly wrong I can understand, but this is a mess, and I have no patience to watch the scene a third time, track down the opening scenes that I missed, and cannot watch any more of the movie.

Does this movie have several releases or edits? How does one explain for getting this scene so very, very wrong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChopShoppe (talk • contribs) 02:09, 12 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
