:Good call, think I fixed the thumbnails and hyperlinks now; I also went into the pages for the main actors and added their guns, and into the pages for the guns and added this film and which characters. Pretty close now? The main issues I'm unclear on is the model of the Colt revolvers used; I have a few more screencaps of other IRA members carrying revolvers, but they're even harder to see. Better to not add them, or add them so others can try and ID? Also not totally sure on the carbines being M2, though they appear to be in full-auto by sound/flash and so meet IMFDB's policy there. Any other fine-tunings? [[User:REPLICAwrittendowntheside|REPLICAwrittendowntheside]] ([[User talk:REPLICAwrittendowntheside|talk]]) 13:14, 21 October 2012 (EDT)

::If you're unsure about an ID, you can always put them on the talk page and ask for help. As for the M2, I think there are very few real M2s out there, so it's probably safer to assume that they're M1s. (Per the M1 Carbine page: "''There must be a visible selector switch or the weapon must be seen firing fully automatic to declare it to be an M2 Carbine.''") As for the page, don't use right justification for the weapon images. I fixed the first one for you.

First off, a VERY impressive first article, nicely done. You just need to add images of the weapons above the screencaps and hyperlinks. Thanks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:38, 21 October 2012 (EDT)

If you're unsure about an ID, you can always put them on the talk page and ask for help. As for the M2, I think there are very few real M2s out there, so it's probably safer to assume that they're M1s. (Per the M1 Carbine page: "There must be a visible selector switch or the weapon must be seen firing fully automatic to declare it to be an M2 Carbine.") As for the page, don't use right justification for the weapon images. I fixed the first one for you. Thanks! --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:24, 21 October 2012 (EDT)
