| 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.

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. |
Regarding this sentence, moved here:
- the attitudes of a society caught between the superstition of the Dark Ages and the enlightenment of the Renaissance.
This is utter hogwash that looks lifted off the pages of a Hollywood script writers publicity blurb. There were no "Dark Ages" (see the article), and if anything, the Renaissance was a flowering of superstition and magic that surpasses the Middle Ages, most of the myths of that sort are actually originated from the 14th -> 16th centuries. -- 71.191.47.120 00:17, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
I support the move from "The Advocate" to "The Hour of the Pig"by Nick Cooper because:-
a) HotP was a British production and was originally released here in 1993
b) Advocate was a bowlderized version of the film produced for an American audience
c) The IMDb link goes to HotP and a search there for Advocate redirects to HotP, suggesting HotP is the common name

I only placed it under "The Advocate" because that was the version I was familiar with (although I know it was originally released as "The Hour of the Pig"). I don't really care what name it goes under. You're probably right about the name. Johnny M (talk) 00:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
