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.

This is a nice short article, B Touch, but it does tend to focus disproportionately on how the advent of the double feature lead to the end of two-reel short subjects. Perhaps some of this should be moved to short film. It would also be good to hear a little about the decline of double features as well. This article seems to be written from a US persepective; hopefully someone can give it a broader geographic scope.--Pharos 21:13, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

It's a start, and it's better than nothing. I'm (frantically) working on the Our Gang article and writing articles for all fo my redlinks; most of my knowledge of double features comes from the references to it in Our Gang-related write-ups. Hopefully someone can work to expand the article; I'd like to learn about the extent of the double feature beyond America as well. --b. Touch 22:05, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
