NEEDS IN-LINE REFERENCES

The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.

There are a few occurrences of weasel words in this article- please observe WP:AWT. Certain phrases should specify exactly who supports, considers, believes, etc., such a view.
- is considered
- might be weasel words, and should be provided with proper citations (if they already do, or are not weasel terms, please ~~strike~~ this comment).^[?]
Watch for redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's redundancy exercises.)
- Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant - "some", "a variety/number/majority of", "several", "a few", "many", "any", and "all". For example, "~~All~~ pigs are pink, so we thought of ~~a number of~~ ways to turn them green."
Please provide citations for all of the {{fact}}s.^[?]

The first movie theater in the world built only to show movies is the Vitascope Theatre (listed under Edisonia Hall because someone removed the direct reference. Opened in October 1896 it was designed only to show movies. The 1905 Pittsburgh Nickelodeon doesn't even come close! This needs to be fixed.

This subject is featured in the Outline of film, which is incomplete and needs further development.

This article is written in American English, which has its own spelling conventions (color, labor, traveled), and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.

Rating system[edit]

The MPAA was created in 1964 because many parents were aggressive by seeing Violence, Sexual content and bad words the film had. Here are the ratings

G (General Audiences) All ages admitted. This movie contains no content that would offend parents for viewing by children

PG (Parental Guidance Suggested) Some material may not be suitable for children. ~~Some material may not be suitable for children.~~ Parents are urged to give parental guidance as the motion picture contains some material that parents might not find suitable for their young children But a General suggestion is that movies with a PG rating may not be suitable for children under 108.

PG-13 (Parents Strongly Cautioned) Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13. Parents are urged to be cautious as the motion picture contains some material that parents might consider inappropriate for children under 13 years.

R (Restricted) Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian. People under 17 years may only be admitted if accompanied by a parent or guardian.

NC-17 (No One 17 and under admitted). This film is exclusively adult in content and people under 18 are not admitted.

Sources that said PG carries an age limit of "10" which the MPAA didn't say: [2] [3]— Preceding unsigned comment added by The Amazing User (talk • contribs) 22:37,~~:38~~,~~:39~~, 2 October 2014‎

Concerned about Notes and References sections[edit]

Concerning the page as of now, it seems like there's some improper formatting for the sources. Normally, the References section gets the reflist in it, but on this article the Notes section got it. The references section also appears to basically be an extension of the Notes section. I might do this later as I don't have the time now, but could somebody look into moving the content from the Notes section to the References section, and moving the pre-existing content in the References section to where you find it appropriate (whether that be in the reflist, External Links section, or Further Reading section)? --Apathetizer (talk) 21:55, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Requesting wider attention[edit]

I felt article Islamic_literature is in bit of neglect so I added my note on talk page there, requesting to take note of Talk:Islamic_literature#Article_review. If possible requesting copy edit support. Suggestions for suitable reference sources at Talk:Islamic_literature is also welcome.

Posting message here too for neutrality sake

Thanks and greetings
