Overviews and Easter Eggs

OverviewsTV Series icon

Overviews should match the back of the DVD case exactly, including capitalization of words exactly as it is shown on the back of the case. If words are highlighted in italic or bold on the case, then identify them with 'single quotation' marks. Exception: If the entire overview uses an uppercase font, enter the overview using standard capitilization rules.Enter the Overview from the cover exactly as it appears, including capitalization of words exactly as it is shown on the back of the case. If words are highlighted in italic or bold within the overview, then identify them with 'single quotation' marks. Exception: If the entire overview uses an uppercase font, enter the overview using standard capitalization rules.

Do not use media reviews as an Overview (media quotes within the body of an Overview are not considered reviews). When there is no overview on the case, use the following sources for the Overview. These are listed in their preferred order and must be referenced as the source in your contribution notes:

  1. The text from a previous release, of the same Movie. This may be from any region/locality with the same language.
  2. Story text from the Film's official website.
  3. A short text synopsis for that Title from a DVD retailer website.
  4. Write your own short Overview, using a format similar to Overviews on other titles.

Never include the following items in overviews:

For multi-language cases, use only the language of the DVD's locality.

When there is no overview on the case, add a simple, self-written overview of 1-2 paragraphs. Do not include spoilers and always match the overview language to the profile's locality.

For Concert / Music Videos, you may include a listing of Song titles and length, if available.
