Use of "griping" word not ok?@DragonflySixtyseven: BRIEF Followup - not sure about this but, in the "The Great Martian War 1913 - 1917 (2013 film)#Reception" article section, adding "<sic>" to the word "griping"[1] *may* (or *may not*?) - be ok - based on the dictionary definition at the following => http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/griping — esp, "to hold firmly" (verb) and/or "a firm hold" (noun) — *entirely* ok with me with (or without) the addition of course - but maybe worth a consideration? - in any case - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 20:33, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

{{cite web}}: External link in(help)|work=That's an alternate (not even secondary) meaning, based on an alternate spelling of "gripping". The primary meaning of "griping" is "complaining", which makes no sense in the context of that film review; indeed, I thought it was your typo (and I was about to correct it!) until I checked the source and saw that it was the reviewer's.
And even if the reviewer did deliberately and intentionally spell it that way, it's still nonstandard enough that a "sic" is helpful. DS (talk) 23:57, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
