Non-notable film fails WP:NFILM. Appears to be a WP:PROMOTION violation by a WP:SPA. GretLomborg (talk) 05:05, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per topic meeting WP:NFILM. I will not vilify a new editor simply because his edits are limited and show inexperience, and instead look to a film's coverage directly and in some detail in sources such as Los Angeles Times, Orlando Sentinel, TopNews, iTechPost, SoundTrack Geek. These can be added through regular editing. That his NEW contributions was tagged for a speedy just one minute after being contributed and while it was being actively edited is worrisome. Deletion of an arguably notable film is not per policy nor guideline and it might have been better to suggest he begin articles in a draftspace. Best for the project is to allow him to add sources.
This article has been sitting out there since 2010, so this isn't an instance of trying to delete something while its being worked on or "vilifying a new editor." Those sources are very shallow, for instance the LA Times does no more than list this movie with the rest of Jessica Biel's work. One is just a one-man blog and doesn't even cover the movie itself. The only one that's close to good is the Orlando sentinel one, which fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:SUSTAINED. The movie fails all the tests in WP:NFO of WP:NFILM. - GretLomborg (talk) 14:38, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Had this article been brought to AFD back in 2010, I'd have agreed with a deletion. But being released and having coverage, we do have WP:NF met... even if weakly. Needs more research, thank you. Schmidt, Michael Q. 17:20, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'd argue that the coverage is too weak and shallow to meet WP:NFILM or the WP:GNG. At best it should be merged into Jessica Biel. - GretLomborg (talk) 22:24, 11 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
