Billing block
editPlease restrict the infobox list of actors in a film to those who have been listed in the billing block of the film poster. Same with the first paragraph listing the starring actors. Binksternet (talk) 18:00, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
- I don’t understand. I’m just adding more actors in the page. Jopling horse (talk) 19:51, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
- Read the guideline at MOS:FILMLEAD. It says just list the important facts in the lead section. We don't list actors who are not on the film poster, even if they are famous. The instructions at Template:Infobox film say, "In general, use the billing block of the poster for the film's original theatrical release as a rule of thumb for listing starring actors."

- Now I understand. I am very sorry. I will never do this again. Jopling horse (talk) 23:33, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
- What the hell? I just added more films with ensemble casts, and you removed them. What did I ever done to you? Jopling horse (talk) 01:56, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Like, I can’t do any edits without you knowing. Jopling horse (talk) 01:58, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Jopling horse, I suggest discussing on Talk:List of films with an ensemble cast rather than here on your talk page. @Binksternet will probably discuss there too. Commander Keane (talk) 02:18, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
