I removed the following:
This contradicts the director comments on the DVD. He says that it was reshot because Meg Ryan was embarassed and shy, and that he had to demonstrate. KJ 06:18, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
Rather than having three dots and no space, the title of this page should surely be
When Harry Met Sally …
as an ellipsis denotes indicates missing word or words.

"Many people who have seen the movie said if they hear the title of the movie, the fake orgasm scene is always on their mind."
Who are these "many people"? A couple of friends of the person who wrote the article? Unless this sentence can be a bit more clear, I think it should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.38.11.146 ( talk • contribs) 17:11, 4 August 2006
Wikiquote:When Harry Met Sally... has been linked from this article, and it's a lot better than it used to be. But it's still not perfect; I'd appreciate some help. Thanks. :) -- Kjoon lee 14:18, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
I removed this from the article since:
"The film has helped to fuel myths at The University of Chicago that alumni from the institution had a very high intra-marriage rate citation needed, possibly due to their inability to form relationships with "other people" as shown in the movie (although Harry and Sally's scholastic affiliation is not a focus of the movie). In reality the marriage rate is significantly above average but not an outlier. citation needed"

Image:WhenHarryMetSallyPoster.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This article is well written and well referenced, and is an excellent overview of the topic. I was particularly impressed with the strong lead section. The article meets all of the GA criteria... Johnfos ( talk) 01:05, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Google indicates that this film is the origin of the catchphrase "Women need a reason to have sex; men only need a place" Is this the case ? is it worth mentioning? I guess to do so would open a large box of worms Feroshki ( talk) 09:07, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
A cleanup page has been created for WP:FILMS' spotlight articles. One element that is being checked in ensuring the quality of the articles is the non-free images. Currently, one or more non-free images being used in this article are under discussion to determine if they should be removed from the article for not complying with non-free and fair use requirements. Please comment at the corresponding section within the image cleanup listing. Before contributing the discussion, please first read WP:FILMNFI concerning non-free images. Ideally the discussions pertaining to the spotlight articles will be concluded by the end of June, so please comment soon to ensure there is clear consensus. --Happy editing!

The soundtrack is not independently notable, even if there are useful content. In fact, I don't see how singles make the soundtrack independently notable, as there is not enough content to make the soundtrack page a strong stand-alone. -- George Ho ( talk) 22:35, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

As far as I can tell, the claim that these actresses were considered for the role is unverifiable. The edit which added this information was made by an IP user in 2009. This user made similar, and similarly uncited, additions to Pretty Woman and Gangs of New York ( [1], [2] and [3] respectively). Our anonymous friend may have been listening to some reliable but obscure radio interview and added this information as they heard it, but I think it is at least equally likely that these were purely vandalism.
At this point there are many sources which will confirm the claim about alternate casting choices ( even the Independent), but I fear citogenesis is too great a risk, and we should avoid including this information without a reliable source predating 2009. — HTGS ( talk) 03:12, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
