This list is intended to include all the films users have entered which have no article, or which may have an article under a different title. They appear as red links, unless someone creates an article there. If you happen to find an existing article (under another title) to which one of the red links should point, please change the link, and mention this in the edit summary.

[edit] Adding or adopting films without an article

Users can either , add notable films without an article to this list, or adopt a film for developing an article.

When adding films, if a film's year is not known, please, do not enter it in the ordered list, or give approximate year, but enter it below, in the Unsorted list of each decade, or if unsure of decade, in this page's Unsorted list.

Before adopting a film, please search to make sure that another article on the film doesn't already exist. In adopting a film, please, remember that the point of starting an article is to make a useful and informative article in Wikipedia. Please, avoid starting a big number of stubs, unless you believe that the articles are important, or unless you plan to develop them later. At best, try to find films that you feel motivated to bring to basic class start articles (see grading scheme). Users who consider a film important, but cannot contribute, please, copy its title (as given here) to the Requested movie articles list.

When an article has been created, please, do not remove the title or the link from the list, unless it has been assessed, sorted and assigned the proper categories.

[edit] Guidelines for adding films

Some films may be followed by other known titles. Non-English titles may be followed by the English title in parentheses, or English titles may be followed by the original language title in parentheses. One more alternative name may also be given. These titles are also red links, so that if an article is created under such a title, this will become obvious by the link becoming blue. Please do not list more than two alternative titles, and list these alternative titles only if they are found in major Internet databases as the main film title.

*''[[French Title]]'' (''[[Titre Francais]]''), aka ''[[The French Title]]''
  • French Title (Titre Francais), aka The French Title


In this way, this list becomes an instant visual monitor of articles created, since their link becomes blue. However if one wants to start an article on a red title, it is recommended to make some searches in Wikipedia first. Film project members can also pick from this list the freshly created articles for further linking into various categories, lists, etc.

A film title of the form Title of Film (film) or Title of Film (YYYY film), should not be piped, so that users can easily determine whether another article exists under the same film title.

*''[[Title of film (2007 film)]]''
  • Title of film (2007 film)
