Domestic films???
What the heck are "domestic films"? This is an international encyclopedia. Please stop creating categories until you have a better idea of what you're doing. --Randykitty (talk) 14:16, 27 February 2019 (UTC)


 * You also need to read WP:CATDEF and WP:CATVER. Your use of the term "domestic films" is not used in any of the articles that you have added the cats to. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 15:52, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

For the record, every film that exists at all is always a "domestic" film if you're talking about it in the context of the national cinema of the country it was produced in, and a "foreign" film if you're talking about it in relation to other countries. Every American film is always a domestic film if you're talking about American cinema and a foreign film in the rest of the world, every Canadian film is always a domestic film if you're talking about Canadian cinema and a foreign film in the rest of the world, every German film is always a domestic film if you're talking about German cinema and a foreign film in the rest of the world, and on and so forth. So domestic vs. foreign isn't a useful point of categorization for films on Wikipedia, because every film that exists is always both things, depending solely on what country you're looking at them from.
