Disambiguation pages
[edit]Please note that disambiguation pages like Mardi Gras (disambiguation) are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:
- Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
- Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
- Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
- Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
- Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
- Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory
Disambiguation pages are to help readers distinguish between ambiguous titles, like Mardi Gras (1943 film) and Mardi Gras (EP). They are not a 'List of articles about' a subject.

List of films set around Gay Pride moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, List of films set around Gay Pride, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

{{Re|Whiteguru}}
I'm new to editing wikipedia. I found an online list of the top Christmas films last year, so I watched most of them. My next question was "Why are lists of films about many other holidays - particularly those not representing minority ethnic groups or religions - not represented on Wikipedia?" So I've been searching for online articles that summarize other holiday-themed film lists for President's Day, Mardi Gras, Earth Day, Bastille Day, Gay Pride, Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples' Day, Oktoberfest, and Hanukkah. I'm certainly not an expert on these topics, but I'm contributing a base list for each of these holidays that others with greater expertise can further add to or refine. I'm personally a fan of documentaries and have seen many of the films on my Earth Day list. I used this list from Sundance as the source of my Earth Day list: https://www.sundance.org/blogs/special-edition/earth-day-watchlist-sundance-documentaries. For Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples' Day I'm using this article https://www.rogerebert.com/features/what-to-watch-for-indigenous-peoples-day as my main source that was contributed by Native American experts. My goal is just to get these lists created to fill a gap in types of films about holidays and to use the initial text from the main wiki page for each film. Hope we can work together rather than deleting and hiding the work so far.

List of ...
[edit]Hiya GMBuchold and welcome to wikipedia! I came here via Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of films set around Oktoberfest which is a deletion discussion about a page you recently created, namely List of films set around Oktoberfest. I voted delete I am afraid since the article is not backed up by reliable sources. Probably the sort of 'List of' pages you are creating would be hard to reference, so I would suggest looking around at other pages to see how they are written and how they are referenced. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have here or there's always the Teahouse. Good luck and happy editing Mujinga (talk) 13:30, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on List of films set around Columbus Day/Native Peoples Day requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://hd.codedwap.com/download/apocalypto-cast-then-and-now-2006-vs-2020/LS0xTHliSUZhTTZ0QQ, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4150978/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0, and https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6691862/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
