| 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.

[edit] Novel, not film
The film infobox needs to be replaced with a book infobox. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.126.155.225 (talk) 19:37, 10 December 2006 (UTC).
[edit] Lists of allusions
I don't see the purpose of listing all those literary allusions unless said list can be worked into a broader explication of the novel (In an analysis of the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou", for example, it would be natural to list allusions to "The Odyssey") At this stage, I think it would suffice to say something like "I Capture the Castle" is richly allusive, sprinkled with references to Greek mythology, English literature and the Bible" or "Despite her youth, Cassandra demonstrates a higly evolved literary sensibility, making numerous sophisticated references to....." - then give an example or two. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.7.232.188 (talk) 18:25, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
