This page will briefly explain how to add, edit, and use various types of content on this website.
How to Log In
This part is quite easy. You just click the [LOGIN] link in the main menu, which takes you to the login page. Here, you enter your username and password and hit the Submit button.
If you do not have a user account on Wuzzah.com but would like to contribute content to the site, send us an email at wuzzah @ wuzzah.com telling us a bit about yourself and how you think you can contribute.
How to Add a Rating and a Review
First of all, you need to be logged in.
You then find the movie you would like to rate and/or review, either by using the Search function (the magnifying glass in the top-right corner), browsing the Movies list, or simply following a link someone cool posted.
You then click the [Review] button, which takes you to the rating and review page for that movie. Select the Movie Rating that reflects your opinion of the movie, ranging from 1 (very bad) to 10 (very good).
You also have the option to add a text review of the movie reflecting your opinion. Use the Movie Review field for this. This is not mandatory, and if you leave this field blank, only your rating will be stored in the database. If you do add a review, please ensure that you follow the rules for adding content to Wuzzah.com.
Your rating and review, if any, will now be featured on the movie page. If you added a text review, it will also be featured on the site's front page for a while, unless you check the box to prevent this.
How to Edit a Rating and a Review
If you want to edit or delete a review you have added to the site, you first need to log in and then find the movie for which you want to edit or delete your rating and/or review.
Once you have found your own rating and/or review of the movie, you can click either the [Edit] or [Delete] button. The [Edit] button will take you to a form similar to the one used for adding a rating and review. The [Delete] button will ask you to confirm your request and, once confirmed, delete your rating and review.
How to Add a New Movie
If you are a user of this website and a movie you would like to rate and/or review is not currently in the database, you can add it yourself.
Once you are logged in, you will see a button labelled [New movie] beneath the top menu. Start by clicking it.
This will take you through a process that allows you to add new movie data to the database. Wuzzah.com sources its data from IMDb. Enter the movie title in the box and click the Search button. The site will then search both Wuzzah.com and IMDb for matching titles. You will be taken to a list of possible matches for your search phrase. If the movie is already on Wuzzah.com, you cannot add it again, but a link will take you directly to its existing page. If the movie is not on Wuzzah.com, click its entry in the list to add it. If your movie is not on the list, you will have to enter all the data manually by clicking Continue without IMDb data.
You will now see that all the available data retrieved from IMDb has been added to the form. Check that you are satisfied with everything that has been added. If anything is incorrect or missing, you can change or add the relevant information. Please remember not to include spoilers in any of the fields.
By default, all directors and actors found in the IMDb lookup are selected. There is usually no need to change anything here. Just click the [Next] button again.
You will now have to select the relevant tags for the movie. These are divided into two groups: tags already on Wuzzah.com and new tags. Click to select the tags you find relevant to that specific movie. If you think some relevant tags are missing, you can add them manually in the text field at the bottom of the page. Once you have finished adding tags, click the [Next] button.
The final stage of the process lets you review all the entered data on one page. Check that everything looks correct, then click the [Save movie] button to add your movie to the database. Well done! You will now be directed to the page for your new movie. Time to add a rating and maybe a review?
How to Edit Movie Data
If a movie is missing relevant data or some of its data is incorrect, you can edit it once you are logged in. Just browse to the movie and click the [Edit] button. You will then be taken to a form similar to the one used for adding new movie data, but pre-filled with the existing information for that movie.
Use the form to update any data you think needs to be changed, then click the [Save Changes] button.
Other Stuff
