This template allows linking to external links found on most film title articles. This will aid in the maintenance and standardization of these external links. 

==How to use==
* Not all parameters must be used, but do not delete parameters when using. An empty parameter shows a link was considered not worth adding, but a missing link implies the parameter was forgotten or didn't exist at the time the template was applied.
* Please discuss all proposed additions, deletions and formatting changes to the Template itself within the Template's Talk page.
