- Articles needing a content fork
- Mainly, these are articles on films and either their source or subsequent musicals. There are a couple where the musical needs to be "forked" from the source material. Feel free to add or remove as necessary. Important: If you split an article, please make sure that you move all the relevant links from the first article to the new one. To find which links to move, click on "What links here" at the old article and look through the list to see which links should be pointed to the film related link (for example, articles on actors in the film). Then, click on those links and update them to point to the film article. Thanks!

So was James Ferman British or American? I must admit I only knew him as the "public face" of British film censorship - I know nothing of his pre-BBFC career. AdorableRuffian 23:00, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
He was in fact a New Yorker as his obituary makes clear. --Mr impossible 13:25, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] 'The Golden Age of Censorship'
Paul Hoffman's recent novel 'The Golden Age of Censorship' appears to be a roman-a-clef based on the life and times of Ferman. Hoffman used to work for Ferman at the BBFC. Colin4C 18:10, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
