Wrong last name used bij sources

Good evening InfiniteNexus, this is a random question but I hope that you (with you experience) can help me out :). It is about the article Fall (2022 film).

Jeffrey Dean Morgan plays the character 'James Conner', but the characters last name is frequently adapted on Wikipedia to Connor because multiple 'sources' such as IMDb and RadioTimes use the wrong last name. They are often mistaken because the character's daughter her lastname is Connor, but she bears the name of her newly married husband. So people on wikipedia keep changing the name, while the end credits of the movie clearly say "James Conner".

So now finally my question haha; the good name (James Conner) is literally in the end credits of the movie (just checked it on Netflix), but i can't find a source of this literal end credit scene that confirms this name. And the sources that I find, such as IMDb & RadioTimes, use the wrong last name which isn't used in the endcredit. What can I do or add, so people won't keep changing it back to the wrong last name?

Hopefully you can help me. Greetings from the Netherlands RuedNL2 (talk) 18:21, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

Greetings. If that is what the credits say, you can add a hidden note explaining this and asking editors not to change the spelling. InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:44, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for this good tip, I added a hidden note immediately! RuedNL2 (talk) 16:47, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
Glad I could help. InfiniteNexus (talk) 15:36, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Rally Road Racers (Draft Article)

Why did you re-add the Film Draft notice? The movie is already out in theaters.-Prince Silversaddle (talk) 03:25, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

Disney+ Date

Hullo, Infinite. I noticed that for every DIsney+ series, there is always a Wikipedia editor who informs of a date given in an international version of Disney+. Shouldn't it be better if there is a hidden note telling the editors that only US-based dates will go for American series releasing on Disney+? JEDIMASTER2008 (talk) 00:57, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

@JEDIMASTER2008: If there is a particular article that experiences this issue a lot, it may be a good idea to use hidden notes there, but it would be overkill/unnecessary to do that for all Disney+ series. InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:01, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
Alright, for a particular series only. JEDIMASTER2008 (talk) 06:01, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Character/franchise colors for infobox template

I started a table on my sandbox for video game franchises and potential colors we can use for them, if the color parameter is kept pending the result of that discussion on the Infobox character template. I wonder if you think this table could be helpful as far as establishing some colors to use in a consistent manner on infoboxes (similar to this module). This smashbros.com page might also be useful in determining colors for this for other franchises. Soulbust (talk) 06:10, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

@Soulbust: Yes, that should indeed be helpful. Though I should note that for video games, someone in the discussion said that there is consensus among WikiProject VG not to use colors on their articles, so even if the discussion ends with colors being kept, I don't know if that would mean there is consensus to use colors on video game articles specifically. That would be a separate discussion among the members of WikiProject VG. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:44, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

My Adventures with Superman Poster

Could you add a poster to the My Adventures with Superman article. I don’t know how and I don’t wait to mess up the article. If you go to the article’s talk page, there’s a link to the poster. Jstewart2007 (talk) 22:38, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

@Jstewart2007: You can upload the file at Special:Upload. In the Summary field, copy-and-paste the gray box at {{Non-free use rationale poster}} and fill it out. If you still need help, you can check out WP:FFU. InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:19, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
Thank you! I am still figuring things out. Jstewart2007 (talk) 00:29, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
Anytime. InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:30, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

The Walt Disney Company

Hello. Why did you do that? Why did yu rebersed my editings on the specific page? Γιάννης Ευαγγελίου (talk) 19:05, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

@Γιάννης Ευαγγελίου: Because as I noted in my edit summary, WP:CAPFRAG dictates that periods should not be used in image captions if it is a sentence fragment. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:28, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Reason for Episode name

Hey, Infinite. The info on the reason the name is used for a particular episode of a particular TV series is too trivial, isn't it? JEDIMASTER2008 (talk) 03:27, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

@JEDIMASTER2008: If there are reliable secondary sources discussing that, then it may be noteworthy to include it in the article. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:23, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

The Flash (film)

In reply to the following email sent to me by @Cxwong:

Hi,

In the "Plot" section of "The Flash (film)" article, I notice you remove the post-credits scene notes. How come?

Thanks, cxwong

Because the post-credits scene is a trivial joke scene that isn't important or essential to understanding the plot. Per WP:FILMPLOT, we decide whether to include post-credits scenes the same way we decide whether to include every other scene. If The Flash's post-credits scene happened in the middle of the film, we wouldn't have included it either. (P.S. in the future, please try to keep inquries like this on-wiki if possible, unless dealing with a sensitive matter. Thank you.) InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:33, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

DCA and Rogers The Musical

I reread your comment at WT:MCU and I'm *insanely* jealous you're going to hopefully get to see it! I won't be able to get out there before it closes (and I really hope they extend it), so I had to find the videos online (also in part to make my edits). I loved it so much, especially being a theater fan myself. Honestly I'm bummed too I'll miss out on getting any sort of merch for it too. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 21:32, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

I'm excited to see it too, sorry to hear you won't be able to make it! InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:33, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
If you're able to take some photos, that would be really great! At least of the marquee on the Hyperion. The commons image we have now is okay, but it'd be great to be a bit closer/different angle. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 15:28, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
I'll try to get several good shots so we can pick and choose (and maybe add a link to {{Commons}}). I've never actually uploaded to Commons before, but I'll try to figure that out. InfiniteNexus (talk) 03:09, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
That'd be great! They have an upload wizard, so it's fairly straight forward, especially if it's your own work. And I've done some work there so if you get what you can added to it, I can always go in afterwards and fine tune the info. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 15:48, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

@Favre1fan93: Just got back from Disneyland. Enjoy: [1]! InfiniteNexus (talk) 02:29, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Those are amazing shots Infinite! Thanks so much for taking them! I hope you liked the show. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 14:36, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
Seconded, great photos Infinite. Very jealous. - adamstom97 (talk) 00:55, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Thank you both! Yes, the show was awesome and I had a great time. It's a pity that neither of you get to experience it live. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:06, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Post Credit Scene.

Hi InfiniteNexus,I'm Qorvos.With all due respect, sir, I understand that you are a veteran contributor, and you have many pages created as some of your achievements.I'm not trying to antagonise you in any way. In fact, I only just joined some months ago.I am a huge fan of the same things that you are a fan of, and this is why I've reached out to you like this.I would request you to retain the post-credit scene, as the inexistence of Aquaman and later existence is significant, as he is one of the primary cornerstones of the DCEU, regardless of the delivery of the scene and its overt comedy. Please try to be understanding, and don't take this the wrong way, I'm just trying to help, and maybe be of use to our millions of users who have no ability of editing and creating pages, and the simple fact that we both love The Flash and saw it on the biggest screens we could find.Thank You. Qorvos (talk) 00:42, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

@Qorvos: Thank you for reaching out. That Aquaman is one of the primary cornerstones of the DCEU does not demonstrate how the scene is important to understanding the film's plot. It is wiki policy, per WP:FILMPLOT, not to include any scenes played solely for laughs, such as this one. If you believe an exception should be granted, you should discuss on the article's talk page to obtain WP:CONSENSUS. InfiniteNexus (talk) 03:30, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
Come to think of it, you are correct.It is said that Flash undoes his changes to the timeline,including that.Repeating such a statement would be repetition.I'm sorry,this is one of my very first pages, and I greatly appreciate your guidance.Thank You. Qorvos (talk) 11:30, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Apology

I would like to apologise for my unprofessional behaviour and the lack of understanding of Wikipedia's rules of contribution. I hate a vandalised page, and it is my responsibility to call out vandals and recognise when I've done so myself.I hope this does not alter your opinion of me.If it's not too much to ask, a reply from you to demonstrate our resolution of this will be appreciated.Thank You. Qorvos (talk) 11:44, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

@Qorvos: I appreciate it, but you do not need to apologize. I recognize that your edits were made in good faith and not vandalism, and your messages on my talk page have been civil and cordial. I'm glad the situation with The Flash's plot summary has been resolved; however, you are always welcome to make further comments on the talk page if you wish to do so in the future.

Kotaku

Hey, congrats on making it into a Kotaku article as the person who nominated Barbenheimer for deletion! -- ZooBlazertalk 02:10, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

... yay, I guess? Still kinda sour over how that turned out. InfiniteNexus (talk) 01:20, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
I felt like that at first, but I must be corrupted now because I'm fully embracing it now. -- ZooBlazertalk 02:02, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
