Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film/Film awards task force

Article alerts

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Help

I have some problems with this template. It need an A.L.T. code on the main infobox. Thanks Tbhotch^{Talk C.} 02:53, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

I'm new and need some help with the Women in Film Crystal + Lucy Awards . As a total newbie, I didn't know I was doing everything wrong but all the editors have been super cool and have helped me start to sort out my biggest issue - of COIN. I have since declared my conflict (I'm a member of the organization but do not have a say in who gets the awards) on the Women in Film Los Angeles and Women in Film and Television International pages which I did create and we're working on merging the two articles. I originally wanted to edit on Wikipedia because I saw that the Crystal + Lucy award page (which I didn't create) needed more information so I inserted the listing of all the awardees and what the awards were for and then I thought I'd be helpful and cross reference and add a mention of the awards to the pages of the recipients (if they had pages). If they did not have pages, I added a link to their page on imdb.com . I thought I was adding "verifiability" by linking back to the wif.org page where the recipients were all listed not understanding that that would be seen as an original source or promotion (I have so much to learn!). I have gone back and removed the wif.org references on the actor/director/producer pages but wondered do I need any other reference if it's a fact that they received the award (ie it's verifiable)? I saw that for example on the Crash page it mentions that it won the 2006 Best Picture Oscar but has no secondary source reference for it. Any help is much appreciated!G-Long42 (talk) 17:36, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Updates to TV#MOS

I'm not sure how many people monitor WP:MOSTV or even WP:TV (the basic WikiProject for all of us), but we've been trying to get some feedback on additions to the TV Manual of Style. It largely has to do with the inclusion of "Overview" tables at the start of the page, the order in which season lists are presented (currently, there is no concrete order), and what is considered too much info for DVDs (i.e. should we be placing every detail about the box set in the article, from each interview to the aspect ratio, or should be keep it more generalized). Please see discussion at WT:MOSTV#Updates to the MOS. Thank you.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 22:06, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Duplicate Articles

2004 New York Film Critics Circle Awards or New York Film Critics Awards 2004. Shouldn't these all be merged. This is just one example. There is also 2003 New York Film Critics Circle Awards and New York Film Critics Circle Awards 2003. Qwerty786 (talk) 00:12, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

redundant templates?

I am working on lists and templates for Golden Globe Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards, Academy Awards and Primetime Emmy Awards. I am trying to determine if they should have {{Film|Awards-task-force=yes}}, {{WikiProject Awards}} or both.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:00, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Need Help with Women in Film Crystal + Lucy Awards

I've posted this on the Women in Film Crystal + Lucy Awards talk page already...but I need help with establishing notability and then figuring out how to best cross reference the fact that the recipients received an award on their wikipedia page. I have been asked because I am a member of Women in Film not to make changes myself since I have a conflict of interest. We are the biggest entertainment awards ceremony specifically highlighting gender diversity in the entertainment industry. I am a new editor and have become very fearful of making any contribution to Wikipedia because of the response I have received from other editors.

Here is what I posted for notability on the talk page- I wonder is that notable enough?

I did not create the Crystal + Lucy page, only per the banner had added to it to improve it and cross referenced with the actor pages. Here are just a few links where Women in Film and specifically our awards are mentioned. I guess if it's notable enough, someone will take down the banner flagging it for potential deletion?

Hopefully that is enough to be considered notable. Any help or advice from editors who are experts on articles in WikiProject Film or other Entertainment WP is much appreciated.G-Long42 (talk) 09:51, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Empire Awards

The current name for this page is Empire Awards and I've noticed that the Academy Award, Golden Globe Award and others go with the single form, while others such as Goya Awards go for the plural form. Do we have an agreed upon form for how award names should be? --Gonnym (talk) 04:28, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Not sure if this task force is even active but i'll continue with a followup question. Until now (most of the time anyways), the article names for film awards were "<Film Award> for <Award Category>" - for example - Empire Award for Best Actor. But how should article names for special awards be? for example - Empire had awards such as "Actor of our Lifetime Award" "Heath Ledger Tribute Award" "Icon of the Decade Award" "Movie Masterpiece Award". Should they follow the same format? "Empire Award for Icon of the Decade", "Empire Award for Movie Masterpiece"? I'd really appreciate the input on this. --Gonnym (talk) 09:49, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
