Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Outreach/December 2011 Newsletter

The WikiProject Film Newsletter Volume VI, no. 12 - December 2011
Project news The Category:Film articles needing an image is quite large at 23,102 articles! You can help by even just adding one image a day to start working the list down. Information on finding and uploading images can be found on the infobox template page The current ongoing drive at WikiProject Film is the improvement of the Stub-Class articles from the Core article list. The aim is to improve these articles to Start-Class or better. The drive began with the 2011 update of the list, at which time 106 Stub-class articles remained. When sourcing a run time for a film the BBFC site is a good place to start per this discussion. The film infobox was changed to include {{Plainlist}} inside the starring parameter. Check {{Infobox film}} and the related discussion. WP:FILM has several articles in GAN; Star Trek, Apollo 13, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Chapter 27, Snow Prince, and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. If you have a moment and can review or help the article get listed, thanks! Articles in bold are on hold.
