| 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.

I think that he is a star so he should get an article.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.128.7.104 (talk • contribs) 03:55, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- Seconded. He is the main character from an iconic film of the 1980s and the definitive work in the genre of teen films. -- Black Falcon 23:37, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I think it should be merged, because the article about him does not go into sub-topics. It is just one section so it seems to be that it should be added to the root section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.74.15.154 (talk • contribs) 14:02, 20 May 2007
- I agree with the above poster. I do not think Bender warrants his own page. The information here is already partially redundant with what is in the main article. Also, it is a debatable whether Bender is the main character of the movie, as all five share a fair bit of screentime and plot development. Granted, he is probably the most popular one, but that doesn't warrant his own page. If this page can't offer something specific that couldn't be included on the root page, then I would agree. But at the moment, this information can simply be merged with his section of The Breakfast Club. --Kraw Night 19:39, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Seconded. Bender does not deserve his own character page. Should be merged with The Breakfast Club. OfficerPhil 00:16, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
Why does Eat my shorts redirect here? The article gives no indication. 71.112.37.78 06:17, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- In The Breakfast Club, Bender says "Eat my shorts". Spacepotato 06:26, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
