For an example, take a look at Talk:House of the Dead 2 (film).

replies: text: I don't really mind for the WikiProject banners if they're collapsed, as long as they show their class on the row. But again, the banners are not really for me but for potentially new editors or members of our project. For me, I would rather we not have the collapsed sections altogether, but I guess there was consensus in the past for this to be implemented. Obviously I want the upgrading info to be visible, and I don't mind if it's inside the template or out, as long as it's visible. For the stub film articles, I'm sure it's rare to have more than three WikiProject banners anyway, so I don't see why we needed the collapsible template. --Nehrams2020 07:40, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Further comment I recognize Hoverfish's comment - I don't want my WikiProject's banners hidden either.  But with the way things are going on WikiPedia, your choice is between the example I've given and Talk:A Steam Train Passes.  Which would you prefer?  That template (which hides absolutely everything - project names, ratings, and the "Article needing attention") is currently being used on over 1,000 articles.   is an attempt to mediate between all the full banners (which some people object to) and hiding them altogether. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 01:44, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

text: The monobook idea sounds great for us editors, but the banners also serve a purpose of recruiting new members or readers or new editors to Wikipedia. These two groups of people may not fully understand all of the inner workings of Wikipedia and hiding all of the banners prevents them from seeing them and becoming potential helpers in the various projects. I would also welcome this monobook idea, and believe that the upgrading info is the main priority for me to be shown for new editors. --Nehrams2020 07:51, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hoverfish, that's an extremely good point.  I'd been going on the assumption that the discussion I saw on the three "multi-banner" template talk pages was some sort of general concern, which may or may not be true.  As a first step, I've started a discussion on the WP:COUNCIL page: here.

thread_title:  Another Banner Question 

message: It has been brought to my attention that a many new stubs on Cinema pages are being created seemingly for the sake of it. I am all for smaller film producers which actually have an industry and some films under their belt to have an article, but the creation of pages such as Cinema of Oman and Cinema of Bahrain and Cinema of Kuwait have been created when OMan in particularly according to the imdb has only ever produced one film. Cinema of Yemen - 1 film. (Wow huge industry!) How can this possibly be worthy of an aritlce covering the cinema insutry of the country??

replies: text: Two things: one, I agree that redirection is the better solution here - it at least allows someone presuming that the page exists to be sent to the appropriate page. This is exactly what redirection exists for. As far as the actual content - I'm not saying that this is directly sourced from the IMDb, but it is worth keeping in mind that there are whole cinematic traditions which are more or less so far under the IMDb's radar as to avoid being listed. I still can't find plenty of well-known American experimental films there, to say nothing of mainstream films from obscure places; I still try to update them on numerous films that aren't listed. Even if we are not relying on the IMDb alone for facts on national cinemas, one should also be wary of lazy journalists who may be doing the same. As always, reliable sources (preferably books) are desirable. Girolamo Savonarola 21:34, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

text: At least for film articles I am an eventualist... so, I wouldn't have even redirected the pages.  Early on I created all of the sura pages because I knew they would deserve pages... they were templates of how many ayah, what number, etc. but over time they grew and their very existence got people to add to them.  Same goes for film pages I create with only infobox info and images... users will add summaries, etc.  Clearly it's not ideal that they are almost empty, but I think having the pages create incentive. gren グレン 19:12, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The trailers are considered to have been "published" without copyright notice, so any content that was first released to audiences in the form of the trailer (from before 1964) is considered free.  In other words, those brief parts of the film constituting the trailer content are in the public domain.  Of course, it doesn't matter whether a screenshot is physically taken from the film itself or the trailer, so long as there is solid documentation that the particular frame was a part of the original trailer.--Pharos 07:35, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Since the film is rated 50%, there should be an even split of positive and negative reviews.  You could even mention the Rotten Tomatoes rating at the beginning of "Critical reviews" to set the stage for how it was received, instead of SlashFilm seemingly paving the way for more negativity than necessary. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 02:08, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

They are listed at that page under the rather misleading heading of "Films featuring things". I personally think that the categories are worth saving, and their deletion could cause a bunch of other categories to be nominated for deletion by those who make a habit of doing that kinda thing, based on precedent. And there has been some silliness there too (ie: comparing Nurses and aardvarks and left-handed orthodontists, and a general misunderstanding of the term 'feature' to boot).

thread_title: Categories for discussion

message: I don't make more work than necessary, but going through all films individually in the categories of films by year, you might have noticed I've added around 3,000 more titles that need infoboxes (along with another 1,000 or more new film templates in general). My concern is that along the way I have discovered that the majority of film stub articles don't have infoboxes - this could be another couple of thousand to tag, which may end up being under review for being stubs anyway, wasting time filling out the details for the articles. I also went through the documentary category and the majority of those needed infoboxes - which should indicate there could be plenty more in comedy, drama, musical etc.
I was happy to contribute to 1,000 or so titles but as with the reaction of others dropping out of the project because of the sheer scale of it, I think there needs to be a cap or limit to infoboxes required, even though technically it would be great for all films to have one. From what I can see, I can only predict at least another 2,000 articles exist that don't have the film template, and another 5,000 or more without infoboxes.

thread_title:  Needs cast template 

message: I asked WP:TV but there is no reaction. The problem: :Category:Television miniseries has as only parent Television programs, not films (or direct subcategories of). Someone placed :Category:Canadian television miniseries under Canadian television films, which is not done in other countries' miniseries, but which sounds correct. Then I went searching for definitions in the articles. Television miniseries: no strict rule exists which differentiate a miniseries from a "regular" series or serial and by the broader suggestion: a limited run program of more than two and less than the thirteen part season or half season block associated with serial or series programming. Well, in IMDb I find 2-part TV films (not tagged as "mini"), which have won awards as miniseries or as TV films/miniseries. My guess is that originally it was meant to be a 2-part film and then some TV station turned it multipart. A clue I find in Television program is that TV series (or season -US term) is a 6-26 part thing. So it might be that a miniseries simply means a series with fewer parts (and not split in very short segments as I originally thought). But I am still not sure of categorizing. Logically it should follow the logic of :Category:Television films, which has parents Films by type (which is under Films) and Television programs. Dr. sunshine suggested above that we host only TV miniseries that hit the screen, but I don't always find info about it. Also many circulated in DVD's as at full length. The other problem is we should then do the same in all TV films (1-parts). Any thoughts? Hoverfish Talk 15:08, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's rare that a miniseries gets a theatrical release so I wouldn't worry about claiming any of them but if someone finds that one's been released theatrically, for example Berlin Alexanderplatz (television) has been making the rounds in repertory theatres, and I remember seeing an Australian miniseries at a film festival, then the film banner can be added. Film and TV productions have both laid claim to the DVD format so I don't think that should have any baring on our decision. A miniseries is usually a one off production, where a series is intended for an extended run. I find reviews are more reliable than the IMDb in making the distinction. Doctor Sunshine talk 17:36, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not too familiar with seeing TV series on the big screen, but if they do occur as Berlin Alexanderplatz (television) was suggested above, then we probably should include that. I remember seeing some series in the past that were in 7, 14, 15, etc. parts. Although it is called a series, it sounds like its pushing being a television program itself. I know that we share television films between WP:Films and WP:TV, and I think we should stick to that. It's going to be misleading to readers/other editors who see that we put the TV film series as a film but then make exceptions for others. We should probably choose if we should accept them all or none of them (except for any special cases that we may agree on). --Nehrams2020 21:27, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd have to agree that a theatrical run probably is a better indicator. The tricky thing is that there have been television movies which have gone onto to become full-fledged films of their own, such as My Beautiful Laundrette and Truly, Madly, Deeply. In general, though, I'd say that there's nothing wrong with overlap, and surely being slightly too inclusive is better than being slightly too exclusive.

message: I've improved this film article enormously from its first FA nomination.  I've set up a couple of peer reviews -- one for WikiProject Films and one in general.  If anyone is willing to impart some constructive criticism at either peer review, that would be greatly appreciated. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 18:44, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  ''[[Fight Club (film)|Fight Club]]'' 

message: Hello to the members of the film project. I have come accross the fact that there are two pages for the same film here at wikipedia. The first is Stoned and the second is The Wild and Wycked World of Brian Jones. Now they are both stubs but the first has more info in its article and as this is the title of the film on the DVD cover and at IMDb it may be the one to keep. My question is how does one bring these two together? Do you perform a merge or just delete the second title? In any event my wikiskills don't include having done either of these so I thought I would make you aware of this so that those of you who know what to do can get this situation fixed. My thanks ahead of time to any who can help. MarnetteD | Talk 19:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've redirected The Wild and Wycked World of Brian Jones to Stoned with a note in the lead of Stoned mentioning the alternate title for just the UK.  If possible, you should include cited information about why there was a difference in these two titles. —Erik (talk • contrib • review) - 20:00, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the fix Erik. I was working on an unrelated project when I came accross this so I don't have any details but maybe some other member of the film project will know about this and be able to add the citation that you suggest. Cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 20:20, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
