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. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. 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, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

Should CBS's airing of the documentary on March 10th be mentioned? It was hosted by Robert Deniro and was rerun, I believe, on the first anniversary. Notheruser

Sure, go ahead. I missed it on TV, actually--part of a deliberate choice to miss almost everything on TV--so I can't do much except add what you just wrote. Maybe you'd be the better person to add it.  :-) Koyaanis Qatsi

I added information about the broadcasts and the release of the DVD. If you watched one thing that week--there was plenty to choose from--this should have been it. (that is if you specifically missed TV just that week) Notheruser

I've specifically missed TV since I discovered years ago that I can sit in front of it all day watching Discover and TLC and then feel tired, as if I had actually done something. Koyaanis Qatsi 13:53 Feb 19, 2003 (UTC)

I've just taken out "the rookie and"... from the line about the call-out to the gas leak -- if you look at the video you'll see that the rookie wasn't on that call-out and, indeed, after the crashes he was left alone to look after the firehouse with one of the producers.

Right. Chalk that one up to sloppy writing late at night. I remember him jittery, watching TV and cursing a lot. Koyaanis Qatsi 02:09 Feb 20, 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Name

Shouldn't the article be named "9|11", with an upper slash? I have the film, and it's 9|11, not 9/11. Just look up a picture of the cover somewhere. Gold Stur 06:22, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Name

The mentioned cover can be seen here LIllIi 23:03, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Pipe characters in Wikipedia article titles are problematic.--Rosicrucian 06:30, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rookie?

I think he was on probation for a year or something... Didn't they call him a probie (as opposed to a rookie)?
