AFI
Script error: No such module "protected edit request". About The Shining, the article states "and the American Film Institute has ranked it as the 27th greatest thriller film of all time". I'm pretty sure it's at #29 and not #27. Also, I suggest adding "in 2001", since the ranking is from that year. And maybe include an internal link to AFI's 100 Years...100 Thrills, for instance the text "has ranked it". --62.166.252.25 (talk) 11:07, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- File:Yes check.svg Done I confirmed that 29 is correct with the existing source and also made these other changes, thanks. Jamedeus (talk) 15:52, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Subject-verb agreement
Current sentence: The scientific realism and innovative special effects in his science fiction epic 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) was a first in cinema history, and the film earned him his only Academy Award (for Best Visual Effects).
Corrected sentence: The scientific realism and innovative special effects in his science fiction epic 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) were a first in cinema history, and the film earned him his only Academy Award (for Best Visual Effects).
Explanation: The subject is plural: "The scientific realism and innovative special effects," so the verb should be "were" instead of "was." 71.167.230.104 (talk) 15:12, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
- File:Yes check.svg Done, thank you! Jip Orlando (talk) 15:16, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
Requested grammar correction
"Widely considered one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, his films were nearly all film adaptations of novels or short stories..." This means that his films were considered a great filmmaker. See dangling modifier. 2A00:23C5:FE1C:3701:4DAD:D984:45D8:8494 (talk) 11:21, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
