Nice job adding to the "Legacy" section. The negatives were written objectively, no undue weight, and the two paragraphs didn't come off as smear pieces. Nice job. Kjscotte34 (talk) 01:12, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Your vandalism on Clerks 3

Calling a film a disappointment or bomb when it had high hopes and made far less money than it cost to make and market (the many additional millions that weren’t even included there) is far from vandalism. However if the rules are that important to you then you’ve been here 10 years and know darn well then about 3RR and so you are knowingly violating THAT rule. Two sources were provided. Please cease in your WP:ASPERSIONS and assume good faith. Smith has had a string of flops, (ie.Yoga Hosers and Tusk, to name a few) so this is nothing new. Your position is coming from a place of personal taste, not the facts. Please seek consensus on a talk page if you truly feel like this information and my reasonable contribution should not be included. I get it, you like this movie and you are a Kevin Smith fan. But review WP:NOTAFORUM then for proper etiquette. 2601:282:8100:32A0:59ED:25C7:2EE8:3FE0 (talk) 16:04, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

No, YOU don’t get it. In fact couldn’t be more wrong. I actually thought the film pretty much sucked and felt it was a huge disappointment. The problem here is you not sourcing your edits and adding your own personal analysis of it being a bomb or a disappointment which is NOT supported by your sources at all. You simply added its budget and revenue and then added your own personal views at the end. The sourced part about the revenue and budget are fine, hence why that hasn’t been touched. You have zero knowledge of what a film company or Smith expected a limited run engagement to bring in. Your unsourced POV edits of it being a bomb are the issue here and the constant addition of unsourced info, using multiple IP addresses, is what is actually considered vandalism. In fact your own edit warring on the article, and the IP hopping to do so, has already been addressed elsewhere on Misplaced Pages within the last 24 hours and the only reason action wasn’t taken at that time is because you hadn’t been warned yet.

As the admin pointed out, you are confusing me/us with a political troll. File a proper SPI if you think this is IP socking/hoping. Also had this movie been a hit then Smith certainly would’ve been bragging about it in the media, as would the sources to back it up. Yet nothing. Just because there is nothing in the rules that a donkey can’t play in the NFL doesn’t mean one can to quote the aforementioned Disney movie, hence your fallacious logic.

We compromised and removed the language “box office failure/bomb” for more neutral wording to satisfy your zealous emo stance. If that isn’t enough, then this is the time to assume good faith, and get a proper consensus by way of a vote on the article’s talk page.

But when you knee-jerk accuse the occasional part-time anonymous editors of “repeated vandalism” and “socking” without proper evidence or protocols then you reveal your agenda, and can’t blame others for reacting to you the way we do when you childishly and dishonestly assume bad faith and attack others simply for disagreeing with you over a movie you (obviously) like. I’m done. 2601:282:8100:32A0:D5B5:96C9:967B:C632 (talk) 18:50, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
