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.

This article needs an image (preferably free) related to the subject, such as a picture of the set or a film poster. A possibility for American films from before 1964 would be a screenshot from the trailer, as these are now in the public domain. Please make sure fair use is properly observed, or the image will be removed. See WP:Films MOS for image guidelines and assistance in uploading.

[edit] Sergio Leone

The Sergio Leone page indicates that Leone's involvement as director is disputed. -- Beardo 04:25, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Wild Bunch

Can somebody confirm or correct the description of the Wild Bunch and if Beauregard is the one who said it, i.e. "a hundred and fifty sons on horseback"? It's been a while since I last saw the film. Clarityfiend 19:19, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

The claim that the "slapping and drawing" scene currently used in a Sprint commercial is from this film is also made on the page for the film, "Trinity is STILL My Name", also starring Terrence Hill. Author should verify which film it's actually from and correct the page that's wrong.

There is definitely a scene like this in My Name Is Nobody, however it sounds like the sort of party trick that an actor like Terence Hill might well duplicate in film after film. Thermaland 20:30, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Just watched the slap and draw scene in My Name is Nobody, and while it was similar, I don't believe this version was used for the Sprint commercial, but rather the one from Trinity is still my name. ~ (The Rebel At) ~ 20:57, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Terence Hill's comedy talents

"They decided that if anyone was going to make the ultimate "joke" Spaghetti Western it should be them, and they specifically hired Terence Hill because he'd been in so many of the overdone, similarly-named productions and was a kind of icon of the genre but had never been given the chance to show off his comedy talents.'" This seems to be written by someone who have never heard or seen the 5-6 movies Terence Hill made right before MNIN. What about the two Trinity movies, or "A man from the east"? All western comedies made before this one! Did Terence Hill not show off any comedy talents in them? --Towpilot 08:51, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Moreover the statement is laden with judgements of the genre and its creators. And I think it would be hard to argue that MNIN is the ultimate joke Spaghetti. I wouldn't be averse to taking this whole paragraph out or rewriting it extensively. I don't think it would be missed in its absence. Monkey Bounce (talk) 06:22, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Er, I meant to say that I think it would be hard to call MNIN the ultimate joke western. Parts of it are quite serious and/or sentimental. Monkey Bounce (talk) 21:55, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:My name is nobody.jpg

Image:My name is nobody.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
