“Superlative” Oscars needs better name

I stumbled on that reference in an actor's bio and—-bewildered—-followed it to the article itself. Still bewildered, I was directed to this Academy Awards Talk page. If “superlative” means record holders, why not use a variation on that? “Oscars statistics”? But why have a separate article at all? People wanting to know who won the most awards for costume design will start on this Academy Awards page. Why send them elsewhere?Merry medievalist (talk) 22:53, 9 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

The Question about ' Awarded for '

Information icon Hi there, I've edit Excellence in the world of film industry in there. But some users disagree with me and revert my edit. For example, the Polar Music Prize also using international/world some key words on it. It's make more clear for who the award for. The another example is César Awards, is a france nation film award and you can see it wrote Achievements in French cinema, that means only award for french film industry. So I don't know why I can't using these words in here? Thanks.

Template:Ping Please discuss in here. Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 02:58, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've already tried discussing this with you twice before yet you refuse to engage and continue to revert (even in violation of WP:3RR). As I've said, adding a word like "international" or "worldwide" is completely unnecessary; specifying that these awards are nonspecific (i.e., not limited to a specific nation) is superfluous; it's just adding a word for the sake of it. It's different with a ceremony like the César Awards, as they're limited to a specific nation. Rhain (he/him) 03:05, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
It's very NECESSERY, we don't know who the award for now , for american only or all around the world. We need to indicate it clearly. Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 03:37, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
"Excellence in the film industry" couldn't be clearer: it's about the film industry. If it was specific to the American film industry, it would say so; there's no need to clarify. Rhain (he/him) 05:48, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sorry I don't agree. it's ambiguous and you always said that no need, no need is not a good reason to revert. Why Polar Music Prize and César Awards can use the words but academy awards cannot. Give you one more example, MAMA Awards awarded for Outstanding achievements in the K-pop and Asian music industry, why they won't use Outstanding achievements in the music industry. They add K-pop and Asian because the award for korean and asian only. It could be more clear. Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 06:10, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
It's not ambiguous at all; I suspect it would have been changed years ago if it was. Other articles aren't particularly relevant per WP:OCON—in any case, the César and MAMA Awards are especially irrelevant, as they're for very specific industries. If "K-pop and Asian" was removed from the MAMA Awards, the description becomes less accurate; the same cannot be said about removing "worldwide" here. French cinema is a specific industry within the wider film industry, just as K-pop/Asian music is a specific industry within the wider music industry; the "worldwide film industry" is simply the industry as a whole. The extra word is just unnecessary. Rhain (he/him) 06:24, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sorry I don't agree. No one change it doesn't mean it's not any problem. "film industry" does not mean the world, it's ambiguous. I think we need to clarify clear. Did you agree using worldwide film industry? Thanks.Stevencocoboy (talk) 06:48, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
What does "film industry" refer to if not the worldwide industry? Rhain (he/him) 06:49, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
It means we don't know the award for the film industry in the world. It's too ambiguous. Using Excellence in the world of film industry have grammer mistake, How about worldwide film industry? I think it doesn't any problems. Thanks.Stevencocoboy (talk) 06:55, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
That doesn't answer my question—what does "film industry" refer to? It's clearly about the industry as a whole.Template:PbMy issue is with the changes generally, not with your specific phrasing (though I agree these are poorly written). It's the same reason CodeTalker reverted you here and Dissident93 did so here: the word is just completely unnecessary. Rhain (he/him) 07:10, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
CodeTalker already said that because of my grammer mistake. But using worldwide film industry is okay and no grammer mistake in here. The game awards I can compromise. Also film industry refer to comprises the technological and commercial institutions of filmmaking, but not clear meaning in world. If I use worldwide film industry in here (only award for) , can you accept it? Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 07:43, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
CodeTalker has also said that the word is unnecessary. I can see that you've read the opening sentence of Film industry; if you read a little further, you can see that it refers to the "global box office" and "worldwide theatrical market". There's no need to place the industry geographically in the world, because it already refers to the whole world. Regardless of the phrasing, the word is unnecessary. Rhain (he/him) 07:51, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Even you're right, but using worldwide is not any problem. Can you accept it? Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 08:04, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
I still believe it's completely unnecessary, for the reasons outlined above. Succinctness is preferred. Rhain (he/him) 08:08, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
But I think it's necessary and using worldwide film industry is not any problem. I'll only use in award for. Both of us should accept it. Okay? Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 08:15, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
No, I'm afraid I maintain the same position. Thanks. Rhain (he/him) 08:16, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
But I disagree your position. I think you need find some new scheme and make all of us can be satisfy. Thanks. Stevencocoboy (talk) 08:36, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
As the editor proposing changes to years-old sentences—in opposition to several others—that responsibility typically falls to you. Rhain (he/him) 09:00, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Can we get this article up? The nominations are announced next week and would be nice to have the templates, sources and introduction information up and ready by then. Kokaynegeesus (talk) 21:36, 9 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

The category award title is changed

I found that the category award title in every edition are changed. The name are different now. It feels strangeness. Stevencocoboy (talk) 08:52, 2 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Giorgio Moroder

I am trying to add Giorgio Moroder to the list of 3 times oscar winners. The person who reverts the edit claims that the information is false and I need to provide a source.

Do I need to add a source for this edit when the link goes to the page of his awards and it clearly states 3 oscar wins. This is also available on the oscars archive.

If someone else is able to make this edit with correct sourcing etc don't mind.

Links to his 3 wins
