 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 06:21, 12 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Vraxxthelord, regarding your modifications to the lead section, merely reorganizing content does not constitute "grammatical fixes". The lead paragraph should avoid excessive information and instead provide a concise introduction to the subject, which it currently does. References to his inclusion in specific publications' lists are arguably extraneous in this context. Films like Shutter Island and The Great Gatsby' received mixed reviews so they do not warrant mentions within the lead. We should establish a limit on the number of films to be mentioned in a single sentence; with your changes, it includes eight, which may be excessive. It's also crucial to reference WP:ROLEBIO regarding the inclusion of "philanthropist" as his profession in the lead.

Note that the article has recently attained the status of a featured article, signifying approval through community consensus. Therefore, it is essential to provide robust reasoning as to why your changes improve the lead. FrB.TG (talk) 10:57, 16 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please change this:

With a production budget of more than $200 million, including DiCaprio's $40 million salary,[68] the film was the most expensive in history at the time, and was shot at Rosarito, Baja California where a replica of the ship was created.[69]

To this:

Explanation: As currently written this page inaccurately claims that Leo DiCaprio received a $40 million "salary" for Titanic. He actually received something in the neighborhood of $2.5 million in salary (https://parade.com/celebrities/leonardo-dicaprio-net-worth), with additional funds he later received being for profit participation. While the movie did cost north of $200 million, it was not because DiCaprio received $40 million as claimed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Perspectively (talk • contribs) 06:11, 7 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Consider separating information on DiCaprio’s early childhood from information about the beginning of his career? The section is quite long and doesn’t align with Wikipedia’s usual model for this part of someone’s bio. 2603:8080:8700:9E3E:C8D7:EDDD:ADA3:28C4 (talk) 17:03, 18 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
