====Examples====
* ''[[Airplane!]]''{{nbsp}}– Requires no disambiguation as the sole candidate for the title.
* [[The Sound of Music (film)|''The Sound of Music'' (film)]]{{nbsp}}– [[The Sound of Music|The stage musical]] is considered to be the primary topic, so the film is disambiguated.
* [[Jaws (film)|''Jaws'' (film)]]{{nbsp}}– [[Jaws]] is a disambiguation page because there is no primary topic.
* [[All Quiet on the Western Front (1930 film)|''All Quiet on the Western Front'' (1930 film)]], [[All Quiet on the Western Front (1979 film)|''All Quiet on the Western Front'' (1979 film)]], and [[All Quiet on the Western Front (2022 film)|''All Quiet on the Western Front'' (2022 film)]]{{nbsp}}– [[All Quiet on the Western Front|The novel]] is regarded as the primary topic, so all films are disambiguated.
* ''[[Miracle on 34th Street]]'' (the 1947 film), [[Miracle on 34th Street (1973 film)|''Miracle on 34th Street'' (1973 film)]] and [[Miracle on 34th Street (1994 film)|''Miracle on 34th Street'' (1994 film)]]{{nbsp}}– The original film is regarded as the primary topic, so the other two adaptations are disambiguated.
* [[Titanic (1943 film)|''Titanic'' (1943 film)]], [[Titanic (1953 film)|''Titanic'' (1953 film)]], and [[Titanic (1997 film)|''Titanic'' (1997 film)]]{{nbsp}}– None of the films are the primary topic, so they are all disambiguated.

When more than one film needs to be disambiguated, partial disambiguation such as [[Titanic (film)]] should be made and redirected back to the main disambiguation page or an appropriate section of it. This aids navigation, and helps editors to avoid creating new articles under the ambiguous title by accident. While the general guideline at [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation]] allows for [[WP:INCDAB|incomplete disambiguation]], the film-naming conventions guideline prefers disambiguating all secondary-topic films from each other. Policy at [[WP:PRECISION]] permits such Wikipedia project-specific naming criteria with the following related examples:

* ''[[Leeds North West]] is precise enough to be unambiguous, but [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (UK Parliament constituencies)]] specify the addition of the qualifier in [[Leeds North West (UK Parliament constituency)]] with a redirect from [[Leeds North West]].''
* ''[[M-185]] is precise enough to be unambiguous, but [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (U.S. state and territory highways)]] specify adding the qualifier [[M-185 (Michigan highway)]] with a redirect from [[M-185]].''
