ZScreen discrepancy[edit]

The ZScreen linked to does not appear to be the ZScreen mentioned. TimRiker (talk) 06:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Prank?[edit]

The reference to Lenny Lipton writing the song "Like a Virgin" appears to be a prank. I've deleted it. Can be restored if anyone supplies proof --Verlaine76 (talk) 13:07, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Needs major work (yes, I tagspammed it)[edit]

The article currently has no citations whatsoever, and at least one major contributor, User:john.sokol, has added unsourced material and a link to his own web site. I'm not interested in the topic and have left the article as is for someone with ambition to clean up. For the record, I came here from related COI suspicions at RealD Cinema. Good luck editors!

@Krushia:Well, it only took five years, but I just took a meataxe to it. See below. Tapered (talk) 23:39, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Major redaction[edit]

This article was (and still is, to a lesser extent) a promotion for Mr. Lipton. The listing of non-notable independent movies, and the laundry list of patents were egregious. The unsourced promotional information was thick on the ground—it's been removed with the gratuitous listings. Tapered (talk) 23:47, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio tag[edit]

Looking at this dif, most of the article has been rewritten since 2007, with sources added. If there are still copyvios, I'm not seeing them, especially as the source of the vios was never identified. Barte (talk) 13:54, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There being no further comment (a month later), I've removed the tag. Barte (talk) 17:13, 24 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
