Publication of plot before film premieres in the British Isles

edit

The plot has already been written on the wikipedia page of the movie Belfast, however, I think that it shouldn't be published until the movie has been released in theaters at least in the UK and Ireland, because there's a lot of people (especially those in Northern Ireland itself) who haven't yet seen it, and publishing the plot will be a way of providing accidental spoilers to people who haven't watched it yet; just because it has premiered only in the United States doesn't mean that one can prematurely even though people in every single other country on the planet (including the region depicted in the movie) haven't watched it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 181.203.27.187 (talk) 22:49, 15 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

You were undone by user:Amortias and me, and now I've removed this again, pending a consensus. WP:BRD does not mean that you get to restore your edit yet again while we discuss it.
The plot is a normal part of coverage for a film article. The film may not have been released everywhere yet, but we don't withhold coverage in such a case. I see no justification for you removing the plot and replacing with the comment "Do NOT write down the plot until the movie has been released to audiences outside the US".
And please keep your assumptions about other editors out of edit summaries. Your inference that I live in the US is irrelevant, incorrect, and not appropriate for you to discuss. Meters (talk) 23:04, 15 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Per this guideline and this guideline plots should be included where its relevent with no regards to spoilers or warning. This is an international resource and we do not remove information because it is either not available in one area, shows something in a negative (but factual) light or to prevent someone finding out something they do not want to. The article should remain as is and the option to "not read it" is available to the entirety of Ireland, the entire United Kingdom and the entire world, we arent forcing people to read it so they have the choice not to.

I agree with that - I read articles about films on Wikipedia to find out the plot as well as other factual information. If not I read reviews. PhilomenaO'M (talk) 20:08, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Docks/airport in plot

edit

Hi, I edited the final line of the plot summary as it referred to the bus going to the docks. The bus was to Aldergrove, which is the local term for what is now Belfast International Airport. If they took a boat from the Aldergrove area, they'd mainly be rattling around the innards of Lough Neagh and not get too far... I assumed they were referring to flying to England on that basis. Happy to be proven wrong. 81.111.218.6 (talk) 23:22, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Add to category - filmed in northern Ireland?

Should Belfast be added to the category of films filmed in NI (I don't know how to add a page to a category.) ElementVoid7 (talk) 20:28, 21 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
