[edit] Size of industry

The Nigerian film industry is the third largest in the world

Can anyone please verify this, since I don't believe that the film industry of such a low economic developed country can actually compete with most European film industries..but then again I could be mistaken.. so if anyone could back this up with facts, it would be great. -- SoothingR^(pour) 19:10, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Improving Wikipedia's Nollywood Material

I would like to encourage anyone with the time to do so to work on this to make it more worthy. There are so many movies and so many actors. Why does even Pete Edochie not have a page? His name is there, but it is red, meaning there is no page for him. Please (noting wikipedia's policies on verifiability and neutral point of view, etc.) start turning some of these red links into wikipedia pages. Thanks. Gallador 11:35, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
