- Project news
- For the month of June, let's work to get our non-free image issues resolved in the project's spotlight articles. Please take just a few minutes at some point this month to comment on one or more images and state your interpretation of whether the images should be included or not in each respective article. You especially may want to contribute to the discussion as the images may relate to article(s) you worked on. This is a very simple discussion, but with only a few editors participating, it can be difficult to find consensus. Further participation will help to finish off the images and allow more time to be spent on other areas of the cleanup. By the end of the month we would like to have all non-essential non-free images removed, leaving quality examples for new editors on how to use non-free images in film articles.
- Our project currently has over 64,400 film-related articles, with just a few 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. Below is a table showing a breakdown of our articles by class.
- This month, book-class was added to our project's assessment scale. If you stumble across or create a film-related book, please tag it accordingly. Currently our project only has a few books, but as they become more and more popular, this should significantly increase.
- Based on views, the top five most popular articles from our project this month were: Iron Man 2, Avatar (2009 film), Internet Movie Database, Robin Hood (2010 film), and 2010 in film. 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.
- Spotlight Update: A few films reached GA and FA status in May 2010.
