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!

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.

[edit] plothole in the tv series, then again, maybe not a plothole. (spoilers)

Ok, Chomper appears in the upcoming Land Before Time TV. Series, however, unless the TV. series is like Pokemon Chronicles, there are... some continuity problems, Chomper can only be visited by Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, Petrie, and Spike if they manage to cross paths. He cannot really try and visit them (and by Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, Petrie, and Spike visiting Chomper, I mean barring the no visiting Sharptooth law in the Great Valley, even if it is a friend.) since he and his parents are trapped on the island due to the land bridge being destroyed. (They (Chomper and his parents)cannot swim, period. (as evidenced in the original Land Before Time (even though that was a different Sharptooth.) and later in the climax to The Mysterious Island.).) Littlefoot and his friends could at least find a flotation device to the destination (though Cera might not want to come, because the last time she went, she had a serious amount of seasickness. (Again, the Mysterious Island.).) This is not original research since many of these were actually in the movie and they also mentioned Chomper and his parents being unable to get off the island on This Very Wikipedia Article.

I must disagree. Chomper has obviously become a major character in the series, and it is also obvious that he will not be leaving the franchise anytime soon. I think this, and the other major Character Articles, should be kept. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bowser Jr. Nutt (talk • contribs) 22:10, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Video

I've got a Chomper video here.[1] I downloaded it from the Max Burkholder website and then uploaded it on the File Front website so I can see it.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Chomper.jpg

Image:Chomper.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
