1. Recently, some text was added to the level 10 description saying that \\\"[[WarIsHell All realistic depictions of war]] reach this level.\\\" I\\\'m not so sure that this should be on the page. Doesn\\\'t it sort of throw the scale out of whack (unless I\\\'m reading it wrong)? For example, the 1930 version of \\\'\\\'All Quiet on the Western Front\\\'\\\' is currently placed on level 4, yet it has some of the most realistic combat ever filmed for a movie (I believe I\\\'ve even seen documentaries trying to pass off clips from it as actual World War I footage...but don\\\'t quote me on that). Should \\\'\\\'AQOTWF\\\'\\\' (1930) be bumped up six notches on the scale because of the new \\\"All realistic depictions of war reach this level\\\" addition? I sure hope not. Also, what makes violence in a war-time setting higher on the scale than violence not set during a time of war? Almost every war film ever made has a WarIsHell moment or two. What I\\\'m trying to say is that saying \\\"realistic\\\" war violence shouldn\\\'t immediately equal level 10. I\\\'m sure the intentions behind adding that blurb of text to the page were good, but I think it should be deleted (sorry).

2. When one goes to edit this page, it says that it is too long and needs to be split. Does anybody have any ideas on how to do that or know how it should be done?
