Moe Greene

Anyone have/find sources as to why Alex Rocco as Moe Greene was not credited in the end credits of the film? Vaselineeeeeeee 20:36, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

This is a very noteworthy film, hopefully the Misplaced Pages article can live up to that! I'll take some time to give this a full review and come back with some thoughts in the coming days. - adamstom97 (talk) 10:14, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

I believe that this article is really great and meets all the criteria for GA, it's well sourced and written, broad in coverage, and neutral. I am happy to promote it, but I did have a couple minor quibbles that might as well be discussed before I close the review.

• The "Video game" subsection seems out-of-place in the "Release" section since it isn't really to do with the release of the film and in my opinion should not be given the amount of weight that having it there is giving it. I think it would make sense to move this subsection into the "Representation in other media" section.
  •  Done. Vaselineeeeeeee 00:25, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
• There are two bulleted lists below the accolades table but only one of them has a subheading explaining what is being listed. I think it would help for the other one to have its own subheading as well.
  •  Done. Vaselineeeeeeee 00:25, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Once you have responded to those we can move along with the review. - adamstom97 (talk) 00:01, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the fast work responding above. To reiterate, I have had a thorough read of this article and it clearly meets the GA criteria. I am happy to pass this review. Congratulations! - adamstom97 (talk) 00:36, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

John Cazale

John Cazale is not credited with the role of Fredo Corleone on this page

He is if you read The Godfather#Cast. MarnetteD|Talk 01:05, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Disambig

Gareth Griffith-Jones and Some Dude From North Carolina you're both being disruptive and need to hash it out here. Stop reverting to your preferred version. TAXIDICAE💰 18:20, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

Hatnote

The current hatnote (This article is about the 1972 film. For the original novel on which the film is based, see The Godfather (novel). For the male godparent in many Christian traditions, see Godfather.), has an issue in the last part. Godfather sends a reader to a disambiguation page, and so the hatnote should say just that (... for other uses, see Godfather.) However, even after User:Praxidicae agreed that the small correction was helpful, User:Gareth Griffith-Jones began reverting my edits by calling me "boring" and saying that the current version had been there for a long time. After Praxidicae reverted Gareth for being "silly", Gareth continued to revert everyone's edits. Now, the question is, which hatnote works better? Some Dude From North Carolina 18:21, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

Point of clarification, I did not call Gareth silly. I said the note was silly, further, you both edit warred. TAXIDICAE💰 18:23, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
