- Project news
- The project's guidelines were recently revised to add details about writing on accolades within film articles. Please review the guidelines if you have not looked them over in a while. The guidelines can be helpful for ideas on expanding an article and answering questions on a page's layout. If you think there are areas of an article that should have coverage (or additional focus) on the guidelines page, please suggest them on the talk page. Your ideas can be helpful for developing the page that guides new and current editors on improving article quality. As these guidelines impact the organization of the project's articles, consider watching the page to join in on discussions that arise.
- Our project currently has over 71,000 film-related articles, with just over two hundred unassessed articles, thanks to the assessment department! Remember to always add the
{{Film|class=}} template to a film article's talk page so the project can get a better idea of what work still needs to be done. If you believe that an article should be assessed at a certain class, feel free to follow the assessment scale and assess the article yourself (it's not too difficult to determine the basic classes such as stubs, categories, or lists). Below is a table showing a breakdown of our articles by class.
- Based on views, the top five most popular articles from our project this month were: Inception, The Last Airbender, Internet Movie Database, Toy Story 3, and Predators. For a list of our project's top 1,000 most popular articles, see here. Consider helping to improve one of these articles that is seen by thousands to millions of people each month.
- A peer review was recently opened for Saw VI. Consider leaving a few comments on how the article could be improved as it is prepared to head to FAC.
- Spotlight Update: Multiple films and film-related articles have reached GA and FA status in July 2010.
