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. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   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.

A nicely done advertisement for an as-yet unreleased film (the first feature film for its makers, Dunkirk Studios). There are half a dozen more significant films with this same title (one in 2003, one in 2004, etc) listed at IMDB. There is no IMDB listing for this film yet. If it gets released, an article may be appropriate, since the threshold for inclusion at Wikipedia is very low, so I'm resisting the temptation to AfD the page.

I know this was a long time ago, but I'd just like to set the record straight: The Sacrifice was released before this article was created. However, its release was very small, and formal DVD sales did not start until somewhat later. Having seen this at Gaylaxicon, and having taken part in many VfD discussions myself (what's now called AfD), I felt that the movie was substantial enough in terms of being screened at a number of notable events on the East Coast in MA, FL, and NJ among others. It's certainly not as notable as a limited-release indie film, but not everything that's notable enough for Wikipedia is. The article is not an ad, though I suppose it has some effect in that respect. If there's anyting about the article which anyone feels is not up-to-par, feel free to fix it. -Harmil 02:17, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
