== Putting "Don't Just Stand There!", the 1968 Universal comedy, in the proper place ==

The Wikipedia write-up says the 1968 Universal comedy DON'T JUST STAND THERE! was released 'May 1, 1968'.  I deleted the part of the 'List of Universal Pictures films (1960-1969)' where the movie was listed as having been released in September '68 . . . then I realized I don't know how to ADD BACK to the list the proper release date of 'May 1'.  Oops.  Can someone either help me figure out how to do it /or/ add it back without my 'help' (I use the term loosely!).  Kind regards, CARTER GORMAN [[Special:Contributions/&#126;2026-16472-70|&#126;2026-16472-70]] ([[User talk:&#126;2026-16472-70|talk]]) 04:14, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

:Hi @[[User:~2026-16472-70|~2026-16472-70]],
:Looking through the edit history I don't notice the edit you're speaking about, at least if the article in question is [[Don't Just Stand There!]].
:You can always undo mistaken edits easily via the "View History" page and clicking "undo" on the corresponding edit. It happens to all of us sometimes!
:If you are referring to the Trivia edits which have been done and undone multiple times, this might qualify as edit warring and should be avoided at all costs as per [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:EDITWAR&redirect=no WP:EDITWAR]. Conflicts should be resolved on the article's talk page through discussion with other editors. You could also leave a friendly message on the other editor's talk page.
:Also, a friendly recommendation: sign up for an account. That way you won't be editing under a perpetually-changing IP address, and other editors can contact you.
:All the best and happy editing! [[User:Paolo Roland Self|Paolo Roland Self]] ([[User talk:Paolo Roland Self|talk]]) 04:39, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

:Greetings, temporary user Gorman. I've done what you asked and added the film to [[List of Universal Pictures films (1960-1969)]] in the chronological position for May 1. I think, however, that some further investigation may be needed to confirm this date. The sources seem to indicate that what occurred on May 1 was a premiere in Providence, Rhode Island, and that the film didn't go into wide release until September 4. (And the archived TCM page inexplicably gives a "release date" of "Jan. 1968" while noting that the premiere was the May 1 showing in Providence.) Too confusing for my poor brain without sufficient morning coffee. [[User:Deor|Deor]] ([[User talk:Deor|talk]]) 11:25, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
