Re: Film Scores situation

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Hello, I will try to help. :) First, I assume you're talking about film score? WikiProject Films is a WikiProject that identifies all articles directly related to film (which numbers over 54,000) within its scope. This does not translate into all these articles being of high quality, unfortunately, since we do not have the manpower nor expertise for all these articles. (See our better articles at our spotlight page.) I looked at the page history to find any primary contributors, but it does not seem like anyone has attempted a concerted effort to improve the article. It would be terrific to have someone familiar with the subject matter working the article! Do you feel like you have sufficient familiarity with writing Wikipedia articles to tackle this topic? I'm happy to help explain tasks like citing references. You can also start a discussion at WT:FILM asking other editors if they are interested in collaborating. If you are interested, I would also like to invite you to join WikiProject Films. :) See the invitation below. —Erik (talk • contrib) 14:22, 13 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I remember Wikipedia:WikiProject Film Music since I initiated discussion about merging it into WikiProject Films. It does not appear, though, that any actual merging was done. I assume this was due to the lack of interest since I can't recall any major editor off the top of my head that has been seriously involved in articles related to film music. You can look at the activity of the participants by clicking on "contribs" next to their names; most editors are not actively editing. The only active editor from that list is Melodia (talk · contribs), who you could message about collaborating on articles like film score. I think it would be neat to have a "Film music task force" co-joined by WikiProject Films, WikiProject Composers, and WikiProject Albums. Maybe you could request the initiation of such a task force and petition people at all three WikiProjects to see if there is any fresh blood that is interested in joining. I am one of seven coordinators at WikiProject Films, but none of us are bestowed with power. We work behind-the-scenes. For example, if you started the task force successfully, we'll make sure that the force is properly identified on all the relevant pages and templates. So you could make such a request now, but I personally suggest starting slowly. Explore categories like Category:Film scores, Category:Film soundtracks, and Category:Film score composers to see what exactly is out there. Find other editors to work with on a light level, and if you feel like there could be a serious endeavor undertaken toward film music articles, request a possible task force. As for joining WikiProject Films, signing up is really a formality. We have fairly active discussions on the main talk page and reviews of different types of articles and guidelines that can be followed (though we lack any for film score articles! help us out). —Erik (talk • contrib) 06:06, 15 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
