Portal:Film
Self-nomination. See archived peer review. Not much different here to say than at the Peer Review, but for those that weren't there I'll repeat the stats (some of which have changed since the peer review). Some quick stats: -- (60) Featured articles, all of WP:FA quality, (22) Featured biographies, all of WP:FA quality, (20) Selected pictures, all free-use from Wikimedia Commons, (20) Selected quotes from film directors, (20) "Did you know" entries, all WP:DYK hooks used have previously appeared at T:DYK on the Main Page. All of the above sections use Random portal component, and pretty much the only section that will have to be updated on a regular basis is the "Featured content" section, as more articles attain WP:FA status. The French Wikipedia already has a Featured Film Portal, so I guess we'd be the second Wikipedia to try to go for one. Thanks for taking the time to take a look.

 * Support. It's really good. I was surprised to see an article about Chinese movie. Perhaps you can add other various kinds like Bollywood to turn it into global perspective? OhanaUnitedTalk page 01:45, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
 * There are so many film-related articles of a featured content, that at present every single article in that section is of a WP:FA quality-rating. So if there are any articles of Bollywood-related subject that are of WP:FA quality that I forgot to add, please let me know.  Cirt (talk) 01:53, 2 January 2008 (UTC).
 * Actually, there are already two Bollywood-related articles in the portal, Lage Raho Munna Bhai in the "Featured article" section, and Satyajit Ray in the "Featured biography" section. Cirt (talk) 02:06, 2 January 2008 (UTC).
