The Birth of a Nation
Nominate- this page for the famous silent film seems to fit the requirements for nomination.--Timorrison 19:45, 10 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Support- this artile has all the required references.--Timorrison 19:47, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Cast section is poor, needs more references, could be longer. Cvene64 19:57, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Object - WP:LEAD is too long, please follow guidelines at WP:FILM. Web references need WP:CITE information. Image:Naacp-birth-of-a-nation-protest.jpg needs a proper image copyright tag, as it is unlikely that it was published before 1923. Years without full dates shouldn't be linked per WP:MOSDATE. And plus, where did these votes and the nomination come from? Thanks, AndyZ t 01:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * The name was improperly listed here, so when I saw the nomination was not listed on the talk page, I created it, and ended up with two nomination pages, hope its fixed now Judgesurreal777 01:38, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Please delink the chronological items that do not include a date—years, decades, etc—as per WP policy. Tony 06:13, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose. I think the technical innovations in the movie have to be expanded upon. That's the reason why the movie is important, and it only gets a passing mention here. This website has a pretty good list: http://www.filmsite.org/birt.html . - Cribananda 22:44, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Image concerns:
 * Image:Naacp-birth-of-a-nation-protest.jpg is incorrectly licensed and unsourced.
