| 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)
- 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.

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.

I agree with the merge proposal.Shawn in Montreal 13:54, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Agree. Doesn't really matter which one becomes the redirect as long as all relevant info is merged. --Janke | Talk 06:33, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, rostrum camera is probably the most precise (and commonly used in the industry) name. Girolamo Savonarola 16:48, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

- I believe that in the animation community, animation camera is the more common term (it sure is where I work, at the National Film Board of Canada). Maybe rostrum camera is more used outside the animation community...? Shawn in Montreal 16:29, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
- I'd go for "animation camera" as the main article. Others as redirects. --Janke | Talk 06:03, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Proposed merging with animation stand
They'e different. You use an animation camera without the stand when you shoot stop motion, such as puppet or clay animation. --Janke | Talk 13:26, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
