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.

Alright, first of all, it's a well known Wikipedia standard that unpublished works of any sort, for the most part, are inherintly non-notable, and at the very least need a large burden of evidence to prove themselves worth of inclusion. I'm just not seeing that here.

Secondly, there is no evidence to support the theory that the off-screen friendship inspired the on-screen one, so it IS just speculation, hence my removal. --InShaneee 17:09, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The article on Violet's mother, Scarlett

Please put back the article on Violet's mother Scarlett. People would want to know who she is. Thank you. --User:Angie Y.

[edit] Book Illustration

Does anyone know where an illustration of this character can be found from Quention Blake's drawing of the novel? It should be added... JackOfHearts 00:41, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Whitespace in Violet Beauregarde

(cc of message left on User talk:24.67.162.157 regarding [1])

Hi, the article doesn't need that whitespace, and is not different from other wikipedia articles as far as I can tell. Could something be wrong with your browser settings or style sheet? The whitespace just comes across to me as weird. If you think the sections are too close together in the standard Wikipedia article format, the solution is to update the standard format (you could suggest that at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical) if you think it's worth it) to put more space between sections, not manually insert a bunch of <br> tags in individual articles. I personally haven't seen a need for more space, but maybe that's just me.

Also, the px directive for images is deprecated and shouldn't be used without a good reason. If you have a wikipedia account you can set your personal choice of default size in Special:Preferences and without a px directive, the images will be shown at the size you choose. With the px directive, the directive overrides the viewer's choice of size. We generally prefer to avoid overriding viewers' choices of default size since they can always click on the picture if they want to see it bigger. Remember that we have a lot of users with small screens, viewers using dialup connections that load large pictures very slowly, users with weird browsers, etc. We want to let them make choices that reflect their own requirements. Note you can also set up a custom style sheet for yourself (at least if you have an account) and that could add whitespace if you wanted it to.

I'm going to revert your change for now. Feel free to discuss it on the article talk page.
