I've removed these two pieces from the trivia section:
It's possible this is true, but I've never heard of a 2 engine version of the Hercules, considering it's size it seems a bit unlikely.
I think this is untrue. It's often claimed the script was written for Moore, but it seems unlikely. He certainly wasn't invited to play the part again. JW 13:18, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
Is Nekros the only villian (or, in this case, main henchman)to realize that Bond had the upper hand and the intelligence to beg for his life once he realized he was going to die? I always thought Nekros was the most intelligent of the villian henchmen; for sale for the right price, but not willing to die for somebody else. It also had the side-effect of helping establish Timothy Dalton as the Bond who most reflected Fleming's novels as a killer, one who killed without remorse. Not with humor, not with thought, not with pleasure, just as a needed part England's security.
The prize for the most blatant begging-for-one's-life must surely go to Blofeld/Bald Villain in wheelchair in the pre-title sequence of FYEO prior to being dropped down a chimney stack. Olaf Legend 19:57, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
I dunno, I reckon the most cold blooded of Bond's kills has got to be the scene in THE SPY WHO LOVED ME with Sandor and the tie. ( Callum J. Stewart 09:10, 18 April 2007 (UTC))
This article has a long plot summary. Not having seen the film, I didn't read this. For all I know, it's excellent. Much of the remainder is in lists. The longest list is of what's titled "trivia".
Wikipedia purports to be an encyclopedia. Trivia lists aren't encyclopedic. If this stuff really is merely trivial, delete it. If it isn't, retitle it, move it somewhere else, or both.
When I examine this "trivia", some of it seems potentially interesting. Here's a sample:
Which parts of the world? What are the sources for this? Who or what "nearly shut down" this U Saskatchewan mag? (Revolting students? Lack of rashly depended-upon advertising revenue?) What's the title of this student mag, and what's its significance? What are the sources for all of this? (An authoritative newspaper article? A slightly hysterical or dope-fueled student newspaper article? Hazy memories of some TV news story some WP editor watched almost two decades ago?) Hoary 06:37, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
As with the other soundtracks I would propose to give it a separate page. It makes sense because the others Bond soundtracks have one as well and so it can redirect from John Barry, it is an album in it's own right after all, with Barry as the author. --stasis101 03:09, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Should a translations section being incorporated to the article? David Pro 00:19, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
