Jaws

Jaws is an American thriller film directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the 1974 novel by Peter Benchley. Released on June 20, 1975, it stars Roy Scheider as police chief Martin Brody, who, with the help of a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a professional shark hunter (Robert Shaw), hunts a man-eating great white shark that attacks beachgoers at a summer resort town. Regarded as a watershed moment in motion picture history, Jaws was the prototypical summer blockbuster and won several awards for its music and editing. It was the highest-grossing film of all time until the release of Star Wars two years later; both films were pivotal in establishing the modern Hollywood business model, which pursues high box-office returns from action and adventure films with simple high-concept premises, released during the summer in thousands of theaters and advertised heavily.

No-target errors on the front page

[edit]

Hi, I just fixed a no-target error in Mały Brzostek, which is soon to be on the front page as part of DYK. The error had been present since the article was moved to mainspace in October. Are articles not checked for such reference errors before being allowed onto the main page, and if not, where would I go to suggest that they are? Thanks, DuncanHill (talk) 22:08, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi DuncanHill, and good catch. Those errors are not covered under the WP:DYKCRIT, though it would be good to catch them. If you want to go to suggest that they be added to the criteria, WT:DYK is the best spot. That being said, the entry bar for DYK is fairly low compared to the GA and FA processes, so I don't expect there to be much positive response.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:03, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good article nominee

[edit]

Hello, I recently nominated the article Le langaige du Bresil as a good article under the Language and literature subtopic, though I believe it could also fit under World history.
