The article is lean on main content. We should kill the trivia section an its non-encyclopedic list and integrate it into prose for the main article. --Jtalledo(talk)15:41, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I incorporated the trivia section into the main article. It's a little (or more than a little) disjointed, and could stand to be filled in with other information, especially the plot section. A brief plot summary would be helpful.Ckessler22:29, 23 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm currently working on the Development and Reception sections and will be beefing them up considerably over the next few days.--J.D. (talk)22:28, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This article says Traffic was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture, but didn't win. Yet on the following link also in Wikipedia - specifically the Academy Award Page, Traffic won the Academy Award.
Image:Traffic poster.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used underfair use but there is noexplanation or rationale as to why its use inthis Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to theboilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent withfair use.
Please go tothe image description page and edit it to include afair use rationale. Using one of the templates atWikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described oncriteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at theMedia copyright questions page. Thank you.
Country. In other articles about the movie (other languages) there is also Germany listed as Productioncountry, only in the English wiki it isn't? Why?—Precedingunsigned comment added by84.190.251.120 (talk)05:20, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, While it's clear that Soderbergh is the director, and thus recipient of that award, the article does not mention who the winners of the Best Supporting Actor or Best Editing Awards are. Could someone add this explicitly please? Best, --Ktlynch (talk)01:22, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Traffic (film) →Traffic (2000 film) — There's a disambiguation from the 2011 film of the same name. This film cannot be considered a primary topic as the 2011 film has also got its own media importance and is regarded as a landmark film. Page view statistics may be in favour of this film but it need not be considered as the 2011 film is from a relatively unknown film industry. --Arfaz (talk)05:31, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be reluctant to make a move too soon. The 2011 film has just been released, the Soderbergh film has by contrast stayed notable and discussed ten years after its release. Are you suggesting that the 2011 film become the primary topic? A proviso at the very beginning of the article is already a heavy accommodation towards it.--Ktlynch (talk)17:04, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - in terms of films titled Traffic, the 2000 one is the primary topic, even many years after it's initial release. It doesn't really make any sense to argue that the 2011 film is of equal stature but "from a relatively unknown film industry". If it's relatively unknown than it's not a candidate for primary topic. I'm not questioning notability here, just saying the 2000 film is clearly the primary topic, a hatnote pointing to the 2011 film is fine.Kuguar03 (talk)19:35, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Traffic is the primary topic. The other topics that use the same term are disambiguated from that primary topic; they are secondary to it. "Traffic (film)" is not a real-world term because the disambiguation part is a Wikipedia construct. Readers will search "Traffic" to find eitherthe primary topic or one of the disambiguated topics on the disambiguation page. In that set of secondary topics, "Traffic (film)" is ambiguous about which film it refers to. No media titledTraffic can be a primary topic when one already exists—the encyclopedic definition.Erik (talk |contribs)11:01, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support. If there are two film articles, both being disambiguated, then they both need to be disambiguated and by year works the best here.BOVINEBOY200821:21, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
