| 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)
- 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.

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.

[edit] The baby being "Another Thin Man"
Not quite. The title of the next movie actually means "Another Thin Man Case," much like the title to this movie means "After the Thin Man Case." The titles themselves don't refer to Nick Charles explicitly being the Thin Man until "The Thin Man Goes Home." DonQuixote 18:23, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Dancer
The character's name is Dancer. He isn't "a dancer". Crana 12:43, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Plot summary
The Plot description borrowed heavily from the All Movie Guide synopsis, including a major error. Just because we reference it (properly or not), direct plagiarizing from other sources is discouraged. I'm removing the copyvio, and elaborating, as well as removing the twist ending disclosure (no spoiler tag needed for a murder mystery). I have the film (VHS & dvd), and have seen it many times since 1979, so any contention can be discussed here. David Spalding (☎ ✉ ✍) 18:31, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
