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.

Let me be the first to say CONGRATULATIONS to Wikipedia for being awarded the 2004 PAE in the Digital Communities category. Job well done! JB82 00:30, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

Yay! -- The Anome 00:33, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

Good Job Wiki--Chandler2525 00:45, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

Is this self-reference? - George Washington III 01:19, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

I'd say maybe somewhat, but offset by the fact that the page has other content too (though someone could add the remaining categories) and by the general w00tage factor. -- Kizor 07:21, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

Huh. I could've sworn 2004 - 1987 isn't 25. Where'd this 25th anniversary thing come from? - Marnevel

From a misreading - it's the 25th birthday of Ars Electronica (the organization), but they started to give the prize when they were 8 years old already. I fixed that sentence in the article already. andy

Question:on the mailing list, somebody mentioned something about a 10,000 euro prize (maybe). Is there any info on this, and can we include it? Meelar 00:27, 6 May 2004 (UTC)

All the details are on their website. I've added info to the article. --Camembert

The lovely little article on the 2004 Prix winners website mentions plural "wikipedias" with a lower-case W -- I've dropped them a note asking them to change this; if we allow it to happen without comment, then we risk Wikpedia becoming a genericized trademark. Catherine - talk 23:06, 16 May 2004 (UTC)

I don't think it's such a terrible offence. They're referring to the many language versions of the Wikipedia, so using the plural makes sense; it's not like they're using the word to refer to all online encylopedias, or all of our mirrors or anything. --Camembert

[edit] Name of award

Why is the award called the "Nica"? If an explanation is available it could usefully be added to the article. JamesMLane 19:08, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)

It's obviously a pun on Ars Electro"nica" and the Nike of Samothrace. I've tried to make this clearer in the text.--Pharos 23:10, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Relation to Nika Award

Isn't this article related with Nika Award? In the article it's just spelled "Nica." Redirect or merge if it is. --68.239.240.144 15:25, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:PRIXARS RGB.jpg

Image:PRIXARS RGB.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 ensure 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
