This is the Film list and navigation management department page. Its purpose is offer common ground for the effort to compile, standardize, cleanup and maintain film lists, as well as to improve the navigation system of series or groups of film lists and articles.

Goals edit

  • To define what items should be included in a list, to undertake appropriate cleanups in lists that have been tagged for cleanup and to make sure the conditions of "Keep" decisions on lists that have survived AfD are met.
  • To set priorities in creating missing lists, if they are found to be needed and to decide on merging or splitting lists where needed.
  • To define on a uniform presentation and formatting across series of lists. Such concerns as the form of the list (simple list, tabled list) the bolding of titles, the inclusion of red links, the inclusion of templates and navigations should be standardized within each series and where possible in related series or groups of lists.
  • To decide on a uniform presentation and formatting of navigation templates and their placement in series of lists or articles. This should include also footer templates connecting various articles, such as awarded films, filmographies, etc.
  • To set limits to the kinds of navigation templates that may be used in film articles.

To do edit

  1. formatting them in tables, as in the List of South African films. After the table, include external links with the appropriate IMDb A-Z country listing, and underneath inclue the appropriate {{Template:Cinemaof(Country)}} , followed by {{Template:Worldcinema}}. During the formatting, please, use the {{inuse}} tag at the top of the page to avoid edit conflicts.
  2. filling them up by running through the relevant country-films category (including subcategories) and making sure sure all films that have articles for are listed (unless you find them too unimportant to be listed).
  3. finding some of the most notable missing films of this country. Please, do not enter films unless you think they are worth mentioning, and where possible give a short notability note in the last column (won or nominated for X award, etc)
