can anyone agree on the film's actual genre? Understandably, it IS a biographical drama, but there's also LOTS of fictional exaggerated moments as well.... Visokor ( talk) 21:08, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
I had trimmed the plot because it’s overly detailed and breaks the fourth-wall ( see here), which both go against WP:Plot, however twice it has been reverted by GimmeChoco44 (see latest revert of his [ here]. I’m not going to revert him a third time and risk one of us getting a strike, so taking it to here. Also tagging @ Slasher405: because he added the Plot word count note. Thoughts on if my way cuts too much or if Gimme’s keeps necessary info? Cheers. TropicAces ( talk) 23:44, 14 June 2019 (UTC)tropicAces
@ GimmeChoco44: (haha one final ping, I swear) I wrote a new intro (currently there) that I think both works to establish the flashback device/opening scene introduction but isn’t overly-detailed. Also cut out one repetitive line midway through but other than that left your previous revert in tact. Think/hope we should both be satisfied by the result! Let me know!

Do we really need a box office update several times a week? I feel like it's excessive and also clutters up the revision history. 1x/week during the first month, or 1x/month afterwards would be sufficient to show the scope of the film's success. -- GimmeChoco44 ( talk) 00:46, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
More gross shows up almost daily on both box office mojo and the numbers so this isn't excessive. -- Evope ( talk) 22:48, 25 July 2019 (UTC)Evan Kalani Opedal
Per WP:DAILYMAIL shouldn't this article ignore the tabloid lies even if Fletcher did bother to refute them? I suggest deleting it entirely. -- 109.79.69.130 ( talk) 01:16, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
I am missing news on the censorship in Russia where Elton John has critizised Vladimir Putin. -- Melly42 ( talk)
In the section discussing Egypt's ban of Elton John's person and this movie, the cited article from FilmStories.co.uk is quoted without having a quotation. "The movie has also been blocked in Egypt, where Elton John himself was banned from visiting back in 2010. The reason given was his “anti-religious sentiments”, although it seemed pretty clear it was more to do with his sexuality." [1] Would it be better to ensure that that is considered editorial content, and not user submitted content? -- 2600:8807:A640:CCD:206A:40F0:8EFE:CFE7 ( talk) 00:29, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
