5x expanded by Jon698 (talk). Self-nominated at 18:08, 20 December 2022 (UTC).Reply[reply]

New enough and large enough expansion. QPQ present. Sources check out. No textual issues. One little nitpick from me: do consider adding author and section-page information. Most newspapers from the last 40 to 50 years do not use straight sequential page numbering, and I always make sure to change "page=29" to "page=D-1" or whatever when applicable. This does require a bit of manual searching on every page but improves the end product. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 08:19, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Frank Fontaine[edit]

Was Frank Fontaine actually in this film? I only ask because he died 12 years before the release date. 86.27.23.77 (talk) 14:51, 10 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
