Dance of the Dead (2007 film)

I speedied this as general nonsense but restored it after a request from the creator. Appears to be about a marginally-notable movie that's been shown on as many as three screens in Atlanta. Stifle (talk) 08:26, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, seems notable. Independent news coverage here, indepentent reviews here and here. 96T (talk) 15:37, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep in addition to 96T's, I also found this on the cast and this. TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 16:31, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Despite the aforementioned links, none of them, bar one, seems all that reliable. [1] suggests trivial coverage. In order to meet WP:MOVIE and basic WP:NOTE, there needs to be significant coverage from multiple sources. Wisdom89 _{(_T / ^C)} 18:00, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - If it got released in theatres and people paid to watch it, I think it deserves an article. I hope I am making sense. Lots42 (talk) 04:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - My thinking is the same as Lots42. It's a movie. It's just a poorly written article in desperate need of cleanup and expansion. J Readings (talk) 20:53, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Not really, this is why we have WP:MOVIE. Wisdom89 _{(_T / ^C)} 21:06, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Reply: True. Yet, the film is still notable. A simple LexisNexis database search generates ~~225 articles~~ either mentioning the film or writing specifically about the film. (NB:My apologies. I should have honed the search to specific times in order to avoid overlap with other films. There appear to be 5 articles which specifically discuss this film. Another 18 or so which mention the film in passing somewhere in the body of the article.) J Readings (talk) 21:26, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
