Redirects and place in search results[edit]

Currently, typing "Annihilation" into the wikipedia searchbar doesn't result in this book even showing up as an option in the autofill dropdown, but another novel by the same name appears under Annihilation_(novel). This is confusing and results in people looking for this book ending up on another page with no link to here. Can someone who knows wikipedia formatting and general guidelines give that other page one of those italicized redirect/disambiguation thingies at the top, along the lines of "This article is about the novel by Phillip Athens, for the 2014 novel by Jeff VanderMeer see Annihilation_(Southern_Reach_Trilogy)." I am not familiar enough with wikipedia syntax to do this myself, nor do I know the appropriate conventions for this sort of thing. 76.191.17.97 (talk) 01:47, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mysterious sentence[edit]

I don’t know what this means:

Lighthouse Pictures have a charge arrangement registered with UK Companies House regarding this matter.

Is it really important? Maybe just elide it

You have to follow the ref to Companies House and download the PDF to find that out, but as far as I can tell it's (registering a description of) the big legal arrangement between the US registered Paramount and the UK registered production company (Lighthouse). Basically Lighthouse can use the Paramount owned or licensed copyrights they need to in order to be able to make the film, Paramount will own all the products of Lighthouse so (I think) if Lighthouse go bust the bankruptcy proceedings can't go selling the film off to anyone else.

I suspect this is a fairly standard arrangement for multi-national film productions, and indeed of almost zero interest to anyone reading this page. 86.26.33.25 (talk) 20:16, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
