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!

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 was nominated for deletion on 20 January 2008. The result of the discussion was keep.

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.

A plot summary needs to be added to this film article, or the current one needs to be expanded.

[edit] release form

User:Best username yet removed the information and the source about "Orientation" requiring a release form be signed before viewing. His edit summary stated that he's seen it at the Tottenham Court Road org without signing anything, but his own personal experience is Original Research and not something we can alter an article on the basis of. The cited source states you must sign the form to see the film. It's true that the Church's form speaks of the film in the past tense, which I admit is peculiar, but nevertheless, it's generally accepted that in most orgs, they make you sign the form before you see the film. It doesn't make sense to save it for afterwards, because many people get bored and walk out halfway through it, and there's no incentive for anyone to sign it afterwards anyway. wikipediatrix 16:12, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

The source says it's only applicable to one branch of Scientology as I understand it Best username yet 05:24, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Explanation of tag

I have added the {{refimprove}} tag to this article. This article needs better sources than (A) The Church of Scientology itself, which is a self-referential, primary source, and (B) IMDB, a better source than IMDB would be a good independent secondary source, though for the moment IMDB is okay. I'm not saying remove these, I'm saying more/better sources should be added. Cirt (talk) 03:17, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
