An editor just moved this page to Bat (film) with the following rational: "Korean title "Bakjwi" translates to "Bat"". That may be, but Bat is not the title of the movie. If no English title was given, then the original Bakjwi would be fine, but certainly not Bat. However, the various links given indicate that it has been titled Thirst in English. Moving back.

Another editor beat me to it. Bendono (talk) 10:05, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn`t it stay? There are other 4 movies with the same title. --BlisterD (talk) 12:18, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. How is that relevant or helpful? "Thirst (2009 film)" is not an ambiguous page title; someone looking for the 1949 film is not likely to end up here. PC78 (talk) 13:07, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted a number of changes made by 99.243.97.117 and 69dressings three times now. As my previous edit summaries appear to have been insufficient, I shall present a more detailed explanation of my most recent revert:

• Naming conventions for Korean given names is to "hyphenate the syllables, with only the first syllable capitalized", i.e. Chan-wook not Chan Wook. The article for Park Chan-wook is at Park Chan-wook. It is not appropriate to pipe the link, especially when the article is already correctly named. This applies to other Korean names in the article.
• Per documentation at Template:Infobox film, articles should not be linked more than once in the infobox, i.e. don't link Park Chan-wook three times.
• The text "(Old Boy, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance)" after the first mention of Park Chan-wook is wholly unnecessary. Park's previous films are not relevent in the context of this article. The reader is expected to follow the link to his article to find out about his previous work.
• Per
  MOS:FILM
  , the standard section heading for a plot summary is "Plot", not "Synopsis". Character names do not require italic text. Actor names are redundant to the cast section. Also, "Cast" sections typically follow "Plot", they do not go at the end of the article. Segregating "Extended cast" is unnecessary.
• Per
  MOS:HEAD
  , section headings should "Capitalize the first letter of the first word and any proper nouns in headings, but leave the rest in lower case", i.e. "DVD release", not "DVD Release".
• The DVD image (if it is to remain in the article) should go in the appropriate section, i.e. "DVD release" and not "Cast". The image caption does not require a citation; the release date is already cited in the article text.
• Per
  WP:ImageSize
  , "As a rule images should not be set to a fixed size". There are exceptions to this, but the DVD image here does not constitute one.
• "Newfound" is one word [1].

Last but not least:

• Don't mark major edits as minor. This is not a minor edit, nor is this. Please read
  WP:MINOR. You should also try to make your edit summaries more descriptive; "added reference" is not an accurate summary of this edit
  .

Please feel free to ask me any questions regarding the above if you need further clarification. PC78 (talk) 23:36, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this fact is so important that is has to be mentioned in the introduction text. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.112.167.117 (talk) 04:27, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

---> I removed the part from the introduction text and created a trivia-section for it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.112.167.117 (talk) 04:35, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
