 Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions

To contribute in upgrading this stub article to start class, the following requirements must be met:

  • Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.)
  • Film infobox ({{infobox film}})
  • Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image; non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible
  • Plot summary
  • Cast section
  • At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, references in popular culture, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.)
  • Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))

Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to start class and this template will be removed automatically.

Why is this a 'stub' and not a 'start' class? According to the Assement Scale, it should be a 'Start' class. The criteria in the assessment is as follows:

The article has a meaningful amount of good content, but it is still weak in many areas, and may lack a key element such as a standard infobox. For example an article on Africa might cover the geography well, but be weak on history and culture. Has at least one serious element of gathered materials, including any one of the following:

a particularly useful picture or graphic

multiple links that help explain or illustrate the topic

a subheading that fully treats an element of the topic

multiple subheadings that indicate material that could be added to complete the article


This article has an infobox and it has a photo. Yes, the subject could be expanded, but the length of the article isn't what makes a film article a stub, it is the lack of other information. The assessment criteria clearly says that a 'stub' can be of any length, but it lacks the items listed under start.

I vote to make this a 'Start' class again. Donaldd23 22:15, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
