[edit] Instructions

To add a link for a movie article in the External links section (or equivalent), follow these steps:

1. Go to MovieTome.com and enter the full movie title in its Search field, then press Go.
   • If the result is the movie you're interested in, proceed to Step 2.
   • If the result is a list of movies with similar titles, click on the one you're interested in.
   • If you do not get a result corresponding to your movie, there may not be a Rotten Tomatoes review for your movie.
2. The movie's review page should have a URL (shown in your browser's Address bar) like this:

   www.movietome.com/movietome/servlet/MovieMain/movieid-<ID>/

   where <ID> is Movie Tome's ID for this movie. For instance:

   http://www.movietome.com/movietome/servlet/MovieMain/movieid-21033/Casablanca/

   is the page for Casablanca (1942).

3. Add the following text to the "External links" section of your movie article:

   * {{Movie-Tome|id=<ID>|title=<TITLE>}}

   replacing <ID> with the ID you found, and <TITLE> with the title as you wish it to appear. (The title will automatically be italicized.) For example:

   * {{Movie-Tome|id=98319|title=The Incredibles}}

   will result in the following appearing in the "External links" section:

   • The Incredibles at FilmSpot
