It seems the list for Best Visual Special Effects has recently been narrowed down to 10, should this announcement be updated to the article or should we wait for further conformation from a more reliable source? - here's the link - http://www.comingsoon.net/news/weekendwarriornews.php?id=85644 - 00:26, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
Should the incident of Brett Ratner's gay slur and it's consequences be included in a "Controversies" section of the article?-- Snowman Guy ( talk) 22:04, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
Why wasn't Brad Pitt nominated for Tree of Life's Best Picture nomination? Therequiembellishere ( talk) 01:17, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
See
Rule Seventeen: “The nominees will be those three or fewer producers who have performed the major portion of the producing functions.” As an exception, in “a rare and extraordinary circumstance”, the Producers Branch Executive Committee may name any additional qualified producer as a nominee. The Tree of Life has five individuals with a produced-by credit; the three submitted on the AMPAS nomination form were
Sarah Green,
Bill Pohlad, and
Dede Gardner. A fourth,
Grant Hill, subsequently petitioned the Academy to be included.
[1] According to the
official AMPAS press release, the Producers Branch Executive Committee determined that four producers (Sarah Green, Bill Pohlad, Dede Gardner, and Grant Hill) functioned as genuine producers of The Tree of Life.

Is information like “Woody Allen is the sixth oldest nominee for Best Director” a true milestone, or mere trivia? 00:58, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
Joseph A. Spadaro, regarding this edit, do you not see the irony in your edit summary claiming the information is sourced while you are restoring text along with the {{citation needed}} tag? Cinematical ( talk) 22:41, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
Also please have a look at WP:RD/L#Definition of "milestone". Finishing 6th (or 2nd for that matter) is neither a record nor a milestone. Cinematical ( talk) 22:49, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
please bring a citation for "records" and one for "milestones". thanks. Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 > haneʼ 04:30, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Due to the ongoing addition of nonsense and unsourced "wins" of awards that haven't actually been presented yet, I've put a one-hour semiprotection on the article to keep anonymous IPs off. Just so y'all know. Bearcat ( talk) 04:20, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
I would like to add to the performers section Esperanza Spalding and The Southern California Children's Chorus, who did a fabulous job during the memorium segment.

A "Reception" section needs to be added to the article.-- Snowman Guy ( talk) 12:55, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
Just wondering if this is something that should be added. Intresting that it is the first one to be filmed in the US when it was not an American film. (Also the first PG-13 winner since Million Dollar Baby)

The following line in the story makes no sense: "Head writer Bruce Vilanch was not involved in writing duties due to other projects." So was he involved in the ceremony or not? Was this just a ceremonial title (like some executive producer titles), or did the person who added that mean to say that Vilanch, who has written a number of past ceremonies, was unable to do so this year because of other commitments? 70.72.215.252 ( talk) 13:13, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

There seems to be an issue with best original song winners and nominees. The WINNER was TOY STORY 3's We Belong Together Music and Lyric by Randy Newman. And the other nominees were: "Coming Home" in Country Strong, Music and Lyric by Tom Douglas, Troy Verges and Hillary Lindsey; "I See The Light" In "Tangled, music by Alan Menken and Lyric but Glenn Slater, and "If I Rise" in "127 Hours,", Music by A.R. Rahman and Lyric by Dido and Rollo Armstrong.
As of right this moment - 03/01/2019, It lists two non-nominated songs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Randumb editor ( talk • contribs) 07:55, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
There is a issue with the winners/nominees. There are two winners listed ("The Artist" & Tom and Jerry and The Wizard of Oz". Tom and Jerry was never nominated, and certainly didn't win. Source here: https://www.oscars.org/oscars/ceremonies/2012 GiraffeCookies ( talk) 09:07, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
