Why was this contribution denied? It meets all your criteria. 12 November 2025 #251112-153503-638000 Where Eagles Dare (1968) 1 item Trivia Declined (1) TRIVIA ADDITION When the fake General Carnaby is seated at the table with the other German General and Colonel Kramer and is politely being questioned to review the plans of the invasion and he refuses to divulge that information, they threaten him with drugs that can make him talk. Carnaby scarfs at that idea and says "Scopolamine? Where is that going to get you, Colonel?". Concerning that particular drug, he is correct in its inability to make him tell the truth because although Scopolamine has a history of being used as an alleged "truth serum," it is not a reliable or scientifically-proven method for consistently obtaining truthful information. The term "truth serum" is colloquial and misleading because no such drug exists that can compel a person to only speak the truth.

And why was THIS contribution denied? It fits your criteria. 12 November 2025 #251112-133052-470000 Where Eagles Dare (1968) 1 item Trivia Declined (1) TRIVIA ADDITION When Major Smith makes his first radio contact with his commanders, they first use their code names Broad Sword and Danny Boy for the obvious tactical reasons to not identify who any of them are in case the Germans are listening in. But during the conversation they quickly break this security measure by mentioning and revealing the name of one of their team members, "Harris", the name "Colonel Turner" and also the location, when Smith says they are in the "woods due west of castle". Although Smith doesn't say specifically what castle, if the Germans had been listening, they easily could have figured out where they were by the strength of Smith's radio transmission combined with the fact that there probably aren't that many castles around that area and it would've been obvious what castle they were west of.

Note that the radio inconsistency is already mentioned in the goofs page:

In addition to Maya’s answer above, this also looks more like an attempt to add a goof (see https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/goofs/GFDUF27RBTQGS8UZ) to the trivia section (see https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/trivia/G42ZNVNNQT6P78FE).

I don't want to be argumentative but concerning the radio transmissions in the movie, it's not an opinion, it's a fact. And let's be real, most of the contributions on trivia on IMDb are based on opinion. I think your policy was applied a bit to draconian for my contributions.

Also my other contribution about the scopolamine, that is a medical fact and not an opinion. I got that information verbatim online from a medical website . How are you even begin to think that is an opinion?
