I'm tempted to quickfail this right here and now. Could you briefly explain why there are many paragraphs that are completely unreferenced? Ironholds (talk) 11:43, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Could you be more specific? Besides the introduction at the top of the page, which needs no references as the article elaborates upon him, I looked through every paragraph, and they all certainly have references. Enter Movie (talk) 20:29, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Unreferenced sections of paragraphs, then. Examples:
"He had a brother, and his father owned a company that tested drugs for pharmaceutical firms."
"Bailing out of the project in favor of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle in September 2002, McG was replaced by Brett Ratner. Meanwhile, he developed and co-created a television series with John McNamara called Fastlane (2002), which was eventually canceled after one season due to the high costs of each episode. Josh Schwartz approached him and his producing partner, Stephanie Savage, about another television series as well, known as The O.C. (2003), which revolved around the lives of several teenagers based in McG's hometown of Newport Beach. McG was set to direct the Pilot, but because of scheduling conflicts with Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, he was replaced by Doug Liman.[9] The show ended after four seasons in 2007."
"This eventually brought Bryan Singer on board in July 2004, resulting in Superman Returns.[14] McG produced the television series, The Mountain (2004), on the same year, also getting canceled after one season."
"At a budget of $35 million, the film only made $43.5 million. He had also produced the horror film Stay Alive (2006), which predictably received largely negative reception." Ironholds (talk) 21:02, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I can reference those sentences. Just point them out, and I'll reference them. It's not as if "many paragraphs... are completely unreferenced." I simply missed a couple of spots, but I don't think it warrants quickfailing it already. Enter Movie (talk) 21:58, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Okie-dokie; apologies for the unintentional hyperbole. Give me a poke when you've done those bits.
Oh, yeah, no problem. I'm done with those. If you see anymore, I'll fix them. Enter Movie (talk) 20:30, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
