This is a non-notable film. You may notice a number of ghits for a similar title, however it seems that there have been many unnoteworthy student films about the life of a tennis ball. Prodded—de-prodded—re-prodded by anon—AFD'd by me, Delete Makemi 06:20, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

- Keep WTF makes something "notable" to YOUR standards? If this film was in any film festival it deserves an article --DragonWR12LB 06:52, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
- Er, where does it say it was in a film festival? Certainly not in the article, where it should be. Makemi 06:58, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

- Delete as non-notable (an interesting backstory to the film, though; possibly the first film in history that became a silent film by virtue of the directors' having had editing problems). Joe 06:53, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
- I'll bet there have been others. Makemi 06:58, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per above. --Khoikhoi 02:04, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Somewhere I agree with the below [above] comment: "WTF makes something "notable" to YOUR standards?" One advantage of Wikipedia is the ability to contain many times more articles than other forms of encyclopediae. Each article could have a "non-notable" flag, and viewer's could set a preference to filter these out (which could be the default). There's still discrimination in this case, but it's just categorization & not censorship. —This unsigned comment was added by 69.19.246.232 (talk • contribs) .
- Comment Perhaps there is merit in this proposal from an anon editor (although of course there are practical concerns), but surely this AfD is not the place at which to have the discussion. Such a discussion would require the participation of the community writ large, and it would be wholly untoward of six or seven people to remake policy on at a single AfD discussion.
