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.
Additional Information: This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-Class status: Referencing and citation: not checked Coverage and accuracy: not checked Structure: not checked Grammar: not checked Supporting materials: not checked To fill out this checklist, please add the following to the template call: <!-- 1. It is suitably referenced, and all major points are appropriately cited. --> |B-Class-1=yes/no <!-- 2. It reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain major omissions or inaccuracies. --> |B-Class-2=yes/no <!-- 3. It has a defined structure, including a lead section and one or more sections of content. --> |B-Class-3=yes/no <!-- 4. It is free from major grammatical errors. --> |B-Class-4=yes/no <!-- 5.

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.

--- What is NSW HSC syllabus (Powerplay) ? Rmhermen 16:44, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

The main way that anyone born after 1980 or so gets to know about The Club. ;) - 220.237.30.150 23:57, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

I say merge. Banno kun 20:40, 10 September 2006

Why would you merge this? The film and play are completely different, with the film being much more significant :? Rogerthat ^Talk 11:02, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Not completely different - they've got the same plot, although the film has some scenes outside The Club's halls. Just to look for consistency, one of David Williamson's other plays - Don's Party - is only covered in its film version, and the same merge discussion is now going on at the Emerald City (play) and Emerald City (film) pages. I'd say merge to The Club (play), with a subsection for film-specific information. - Malkinann 02:52, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, I've gone ahead and done the merge. I think I managed to fit everything in ok. - Malkinann 09:27, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rename to (1980 film)

The disamig page for The Club lists this article separately as The Club (play) and The Club (film), and also lists another film of the same title from 1994. Wonder if this article should be renamed as "The Club (play and 1980 film)" or "The Club (Australian play and film)" or similar to reflect that it covers both merged topics, and also to avoid confusion once someone creates an article for the 1994 film. Suggestions? Sroc 14:08, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Theatre Assessment

• Start class - Needs formatting to conform with Wikipedia:WikiProject_Theatre/Article_Structure guidelines. Needs Productions, Reception, and Analysis headings per available information.
• Low importance - a single play constitutes a "highly specific area of knowledge"
