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.
Additional Information: This article may need an appropriate infobox template.

[edit] Sources

The article presently quotes "one IMDb reviewer." Generally, IMDb users aren't considered appropriate sources for citation on Wikipedia. If, however, it's one of the external reviews to which IMDb provides a link, then it might constitute a reliable source by Wikipedia's standards. Lawikitejana (talk) 03:10, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] GA review

The GA review of this article is currently taking place at /GA1, and is transcluded below.

[edit] GA review 1

• The infobox image is a screenshot... is it possible some sort of promotional poster or something, that's what's generally used there...
  • I couldn't find a poster or promotional material, but I've added a screenshot of the opening title card, so hopefully that should be ok.
• The lead needs a bit work; there's no mention of reception or music (which are sections in the article)
  • Sorted.
• The references need formatting...try {{cite web}}; they at least need publisher info and an access date.
  • I think I've sorted these now.
• I think plot sections generally go before production and other such things.
  • Switched order - you're right, that's a better order.
• It's a shame there's so little information available on the film.... nothing more on reception or anything?
  • Unfortunately, this film has drifted into obscurity, which is partly why I've had a go at collating all the information I could find about it. As far as I know, those really are all the sources about it, at least on the internet. I guess 1989 is quite a long time ago to have old reviews about still.

Please leave me a note when you are done. Cheers, dihydrogen monoxide (H₂O) 01:18, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, I've had a go at sorting a few things out - I've answered after the bullet points. Bob talk 09:22, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
