I am the subject of this Wikipedia page and noticed a few errors whilst reading my biography. I would like to request that these errors be amended.

In the line "He wrote the screenplay for Project X with Matthew Broderick in 1987", "with" should be changed to "starring".

The line "He also helped Stone write the film W in 2008" should be changed to "He also wrote the screenplay for W. in 2008".

This should be changed because this information is incorrect. Matthew Broderick did not co-write the screenplay.

This should be changed because this information is incorrect. Oliver Stone did not co-write W.

@Sgweiser, as PK650 mentioned below, we can't use IMDB (see WP:IMDB). Also, the database source you give does support that Broderick was not a cowriter, but it doesn't support that he stared in the film, and the disclaimer at the bottom also says that it is partially user-generated - as a general rule we don't use sources like that, since anyone could write anything in them and there's no editorial oversight. Do you perhaps have the credits of the original screenplay, a newspaper article, something of that nature? Rusalkii (talk) 08:25, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
