Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Legends of the Fall, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. It's not clear to me on what basis you categorized this as a 'father and son' film, especially as I don't see any real discussion of that dynamic in the article.

DonIago, the basis of my categorization of Legends of the Fall as a ‘father and son’ film is the plot description in the opening section which states “film is about three brothers and their father,” the film poster which displays father and son characters, and the plot summary which goes on to detail the relationships between the three sons and their father. You are free to remove categories as you wish if they do not meet your standards for what qualifies as a ‘father and son’ film. Spectrallights (talk) 22:39, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What you're describing...applying a category based on the plot description and poster rather than any sources...is the definition of

original research. Please tell me that the categories you've been adding to other film articles have been based on more than the plot descriptions and promo materials. DonIago (talk) 01:39, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply

It seems to me that viewing the film counts as original research. And while many films can fit several categories—this film addresses individual freedom vs governmental authority, for example—Legends of the Fall is very much the story of a father's relationships with his three distinctly different sons. I defy anyone with a brain who has viewed this film to argue otherwise. And I did original research: I viewed the film.

Hi Spectrallights! The thread you created at the archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread .

I've reverted the ones you brought to my attention, since they were obviously not properly supported by the sources. If it continues, however, please bring it to
