COMMENTS

Shown out-of-competition December 15, 2:30 and December 18, 8:30 at Closing Night (interrupted for award ceremony) because the originally scheduled The Bigamist didn’t arrive.

Your links in all those other film articles to refs to San Fran Film Fest?????????????
What possible value do most of these links have??

The ones that I have looked at give little more than cast/credits.

WHY are you promoting the SFFF in this way, beyond that your user name might suggest some affiliation with that organization....???

External Links and program notes
Hello, I just received your comments, I know it doesn't tell or explain a lot about the film yet. But my department and I (the San Francisco Film Society Archive) are working in parallel to fill the program notes. We have been screening films for over 50 years by now and we have been launching a History Website this year. Every program note will be filled like this one for example, it’s a matter of time: http://history.sffs.org/films/film_details.php?id=5074&search_by=3&searchfield=1957 Anyway, tell me if you think I should stop filling external links. Thank you, Gauthier @ the Film Society


 * Ah, I thought that you might have some connection to the SFFF, an organization which I know well and worked for in the 1980s. While there is nothing wrong with those links which connect to your web history site and which give information about the film (and a still), the entries which presently have little or notging are pointless.


 * I took a look at several whihc you have added, and they are fine. However, according to Wiki practise, be aware that film titles appear in italics, not bold face except the first time they appear in an article.  Then, if a foreign film, they would be bold italics with the English translation appearing in bold only in brackets.


 * I think that you'll find that many of your new "articles", which simply contain a single external link, will be removed fairly quickly by administrators. At least create a stub with a line or so of information to avoid that risk.  There are many films still not included on wikipedia and so, in the end, you'll be doing a good job entering them.
