I don't think this is a bad start. Are there other court cases that show more regulations? Otherwise I think you have a good page going.Drohn141 (talk) 23:32, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

I agree it's a good start... maybe you could add something about issues with free porn and how it affects the porn industry. Ac7958 (talk) 15:08, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Maybe try to research more on the "rights" subtopic. Is there any requirements on females taking birthcontrol, or are they required to practice and safe sex methods other than optional condoms. Patswrestling (talk) 15:52, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Adult film industry regulation
The adult film industry regulation article shows some promise so I have not tagged it for deletion. But you must deal with the basic matter of formatting - why on earth is written as separate lines, double-spaced? &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 18:42, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

I like the way this page has started. I think providing more concrete examples of safe or unsafe practices in the industry can add a certain appeal to the article. By providing real life examples, some may find the information to have more of an impact (ChelseasexEd (talk) 01:26, 6 April 2009 (UTC))

I would be interested in talking to your instructor, so that we can help to guide projects like this without conflicting with Wikipedia's editing guidelines. We appreciate your contributions, and want to help. However, we don't want Wikipedia to be used as a host for class assignments: it may be more appropriate to improve existing articles than to create something new that may overlap with existing content. Please feel free to ask me questions or to discuss your goals in this project.  Acroterion  (talk)  02:22, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Help request
How do I link pages to my article? I ofund articles I'd like to link but I don't know how to do it. Also, how do I make my article a better one? Sslota (talk) 03:50, 29 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi there. I've moved the request from User talk:Acroterion to your own page; ; it's best to create a new section at the end of your talk page to start new conversations, especially help requests.


 * Links are coded line this; . This will appear on the page as sausage.


 * You can also link from one word to another, such as;
 * This appears as;
 * I like sausages
 * I like sausages


 * For more info, see WP:LINKING.


 * As regards improving the article - please tell me the name of the article, and I'll take a look. Edit this, and give me a link to it below. (struck out; see updated comments below)


 * Cheers,  Chzz  ►  03:57, 29 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah - I see now, from your contributions, that you mean Adult Film Industry Regulations.


 * There are a number of things that could be improved, such as;


 * The article lacks a lede section at the beginning, which should have the name of the article and explain the topic - a brief summary of the rest of the article. Such as,
 * Adult Film Industry Regulations are the laws pertaining to the Adult movie industry...


 * Avoid vague words, for example (emplasis added);
 * About 200 film production companies employ 1,500 performers. Performers earn an average of $500–$2,000 per shoot and are oftentimes  not paid based on the distribution or sales of their work.


 * Improving the references would help a lot, so I'll add my own 'tips on referencing' below.


 * All those tags at the top of the article indicate what needs to be improved - ie these;


 * If you read the links in the above tags, it should help you to make improvements.


 * So - I suggest you have a go at improving the article, using the information that I have given; if you need specific help, please ask for it.


 * When you have made some improvements, you could seek further assistance in Requests for feedback and, perhaps later, peer review.


 * To get more help, please use another in a new section, at the end of this talk page - or, perhaps better, you can always talk to us live.


 * Best of luck,  Chzz  ►  04:13, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Tips on referencing
There are lots of ways to do this, some are simple, some more complex.

Personally, I like using citation templates, and fill in as much as I possibly can; maybe a bit more work, but I think it looks better. You have a. An example usage is;

For all the possible things to include, see Template:Citation

Of course, you don't have to put everything in, just whatever you can. The above example is a book, but I've included a 'convenience link' to a website that displays it.

Then, at the end of the document (but before any 'category' tags), you need a references section. You just put,
