I'm not too fond of templates which don't allow the users to put relevant paragraphs at the top of the page.  Summaries or background info which may be of interest to the reader should be ABOVE the line "The following guns have been used...etc", not after.  If it appears afterwards it looks weird.

I made a minor change to the template so that now you can simply add <nowiki>{{Film Title}}</nowiki> to the top of the page, instead of <nowiki>{{Film Title|NAME OF FILM}}</nowiki>. If no arguement is supplied, it will automatically output the name of the page via the use of <nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki>. You can still supply an argument so that all the current uses of the template work AND so that you can override the default for films that start with "The" or contain a year. For example, using <nowiki>{{Film Title}}</nowiki> on [[Matrix, The]] would cause "Matrix, The" to be printed so <nowiki>{{Film Title|The Matrix}}</nowiki> should be used. --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 13:46, 25 April 2012 (CDT)

Any one know why this is wrapped in a table?? It results in a forced <nowiki><br clear=all></nowiki> being added after the title... It should just display the title. I don't want to change it without approval, any one know?? --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 18:04, 25 April 2012 (CDT)

This particular template

I'm not too fond of templates which don't allow the users to put relevant paragraphs at the top of the page. Summaries or background info which may be of interest to the reader should be ABOVE the line "The following guns have been used...etc", not after. If it appears afterwards it looks weird.

Minor change

I made a minor change to the template so that now you can simply add {{Film Title}} to the top of the page, instead of {{Film Title|NAME OF FILM}}. If no arguement is supplied, it will automatically output the name of the page via the use of {{PAGENAME}}. You can still supply an argument so that all the current uses of the template work AND so that you can override the default for films that start with "The" or contain a year. For example, using {{Film Title}} on Matrix, The would cause "Matrix, The" to be printed so {{Film Title|The Matrix}} should be used. --Zackmann08 13:46, 25 April 2012 (CDT)

Why...

Any one know why this is wrapped in a table?? It results in a forced <br clear=all> being added after the title... It should just display the title. I don't want to change it without approval, any one know?? --Zackmann08 18:04, 25 April 2012 (CDT)
