Title
Use the title from the front cover.

• Never add distinguishing factors to the title (such as "Widescreen" or "Special Edition"). Use the Edition field for these.
• Check capitalization of the title.
• Do not include quotes if they surround the entire title.
• Include possessives if the front cover includes them, and if they are verifiably part of the title. If quotes surround the title in the credit block (generally on the back cover), check whether the possessive is within the quotes. In the absence of quotes to verify, check the font size used for the title on the front cover. Generally, possessives which use a significantly smaller font are not part of the title.
• Possessive examples: "Tim Burton's Corpse Bride", John Carpenter's "The Thing". In each case, the portion within quotes is the title.
• For titles which include periods, dashes, or other symbols, check the credit block on the back of the case if included. If not, check the film credits or opening sequence. Use these to determine whether to exclude or convert the symbol to a standard character such as ".", "-", or "*"
• Use capitalization rules common to the language of the title. “Tout va bien” is correctly capitalized. “Tout Va Bien” is not.
• English titles will be automatically capitalized by the contribution system per the Associated Press style title standard. Capitalization Tool
• If the title appears in multiple languages, use the title that matches the language of the locality and do not include an alternate title ( for instance in another language).
• Episode descriptors are part of the title; separate them with a colon and space; e.g. "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock". For multiple descriptors, use a colon and space for each break.
• For music and stage performance DVDs, use the performer or group name followed by the DVD title, separated with a colon and space. For example: "U2: Rattle and Hum", "Ellen Degeneres: The Begining".
• Annual DVDs such WWE or NFL Films titles if the year is included it is part of the title and should not be included in the Descriptor field. For Example Title: Year.
• The title for a Box Set should be the title listed on the Front Cover; for example Alien Quadrilogy.
• If the title is shown run together, but with coloring and/or symbols splitting the title words, use standard spacing.
• Certain characters will be converted automatically during contribution. e.g. "•" will be converted to "-"

Edition
The Edition field is for distinguishing between DVDs, and for indicating special versions and collections (for example The Criterion Collection, Widescreen, Full-Screen Edition, Director's Cut). It's usually safe to use one of the built-in selections if appropriate. If you are using a non-standard edition, take it from the DVD box, and ensure it will help distinguish between different releases of the same title.

Edition is generally displayed on the front cover, but may also be gathered from the back cover if present.

Do not enter media types (such as "Blu-Ray + DVD + Digital Copy") into the edition or title field.

Original Title
The Original Title field serves two general purposes, but in both cases allows for the tracking of the original feature title. For profiles which have an alternate title displayed on the cover, use the title from the film's credits. For titles released outside their country of origin, use the original release title.
In cases where the title is the original title, leave the Original Title field blank.

• Foreign Films: The Original Title field will contain the original title for the main feature in the country of origin.  i.e. A German DVD release for a film originally produced in the United States would have the German title in the Title field and the English title in the Original Title Field.
• Modified Titles: The Original Title field will contain the original theatrical title, while the Title field will contain the title of the DVD release.  For instance, for the Special Edition rerelease of There's Something About Mary:
  • Title: There's Something More About Mary
  • Original Title: There's Something About Mary
