  • ... that Ken Nightingall became famous for wearing pink shorts, forty years after he actually did? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
    • ALT1:... that Ken Nightingall, an uncredited boom operator, was not mentioned in the citation for his sound team's 1978 Academy Award, but was still invited to Buckingham Palace with the winners?

  • Thanks, Ed - someone else would need to review alt2 (which I've moved for you), but I think that it ends rather awkwardly and the original phrasing works fine. Kingsif (talk) 00:43, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hi, I came by to promote ALT1 because it has a little more meat to it. But why doesn't it mention Star Wars? This should also be added to the article's lead. Yoninah (talk) 21:49, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
