Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

Does anyone think this should be moved to "Police Academy (movie)", and have this article be about police academies in general? Just a thought. Not that I'm volunteering to write about police academies, I know nothing about them... except for what I've seen in this movie, of course. =o)

Agreed that it should be moved, but also agreed that someone should write something about real Police Academies! Could perhaps have this as a redirect page for a while? violet/riga 17:54, 8 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Just noticed that Police Academy (movie) is a redirect to this article - perhaps that should be swapped around?

I agree. It would be easy to write a stub for the real thing, but there are many, many links that would have to be updated. Spalding 23:43, July 10, 2005 (UTC)

The best way would be to have the actual (real) police academies article at Police academy and retain this at Police Academy (note the capitalisation). violet/riga (t) 23:58, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

OK, I did that. Spalding 00:41, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Character sections

Was intending to write some more about each of the main characters, hence the sections. Lost a load of edits when I got a PHP error on preview.  :( If anyone has the time/inclination they could continue with the detailing, or perhaps the sections could be flattened. violet/riga 20:14, 8 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Profits

"The first film grossed $81.2 USD in America, with the following films earning $150 in total."

I know they weren't the most successful films ever, but isn't there a thousands or something missing here?

I don't know what you're on about ;) Cheers, violet/riga

[edit] Voices

Are those voices for the TV series or for the movies? It's unclear

[edit] Police Academy 8

IMDB no longer references this movie. Has it been scrapped?
