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.

[edit] Change article name?

The name of this film is "Europa". Is there a Wikipedia policy on using alternate titles as article titles if the original is not the same as the one for the American market? If not, this film should be referred to as "Europa" and the article should have that title [or "Europa (film)"].—Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.136.42.118 (talk • contribs)

The policy is to always use the English title. I'm not sure in this case, because as far as I know it was released as "Europa" in UK. Zentropa is the name of LvT's production company, so we might have to disambiguate. --Maitch 08:21, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

The recent DVD rerelease in Australia is called "Europa". Apparently the original title was changed in some regions to avoid confusion with the film "Europa Europa", which had come out just before. "Europa" was the orginal title, the title the director intended, and the title under which it was released in some regions. Therefore I think this article should be renamed. - Eyeresist 05:18, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

The title "Zentropa" was used for the American and Australian release, but not for the British or other international markets. Also, the title as it appears onscreen is "Europa"; it's not changed onscreen to "Zentropa" in any version. The recent DVD re-release of this film in all markets now bears the title "Europa" on all packaging. So I think the entry should be Europa (film).Lontano 13:06, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

I support a move to Europa (film). --Maitch 15:33, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

• Support. More widely used title, both internationally and in English language countries. Prolog 08:57, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Article has now been moved, and all pages linking to Zentropa have been updated. Thank you. Lontano 05:58, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
