Umm… well something glitches out when editing. I edited the information since somebody and not properly confirmed the information. I stated a source and fixed the problem. But something happened when it came out. So if anyone can help I’d appreciate that since I’m not the best. Jerry Steinfield (talk) 08:05, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

UPDATE: I fixed it. Sorry for the conundrum, but it was just a small little mistake withe the way it was referenced. Jerry Steinfield (talk) 08:11, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Actors/Entertainers

The section in Popular culture contains over 400 links to actors and entertainers. This is a problem.

  • It contributes greatly to the size of the article, while adding little other than to confirm that, yes, there were actors in the 1990s.
  • So what is the purpose of this list? To list every actor who ever appeared in a film in the 1990s?
  • If not intending to list every single actor, (which would be impossible), what is the criteria for inclusion? Other than a Wikipedia editor wishes to add someone?
  • Does anyone seriously believe that anyone is ever going to read this list? Anyone?
  • The list is almost universally American centric, with a smattering of UK and Australians.
  • This article is not List of Actors in the 1990s, nor is it a category to list all actors from the 1990s. It is supposed to be a summary, identifying trends and significant facets of the 1990s.

I would propose that this unwieldy list cruft is removed. If anyone has some sourced content about the nature or range of film actors in the 1990s, this article would be better served with that. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 15:32, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

I've gone ahead with this removal, and also a few other similar lists for the same reasons. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 09:17, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Re-introducing the People section for the 1990s...

I'm attempting to re-introduce the famous people section for the 1990s, but this time with adding credible references. Please let me know if this helps. Mr. Brain (talk) 02:47, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
