Talk:Gay Bride of Frankenstein

Notability
What do I need to do to prove the show has "notability"? I'm new the Wiki so my editing skills are not perfect. I'm not spamming. Just trying to bring attention a something I've been working on for many years that is truly inspired by Shelly's novel. My show addresses many issues and is not just a gay romp of musical theater. In fact isn't musical theatre an art form? Please advise.

 * First, read the general notability guidelines and the conflict of interest guideline. In a nutshell, to show that a subject is notable there must be independent reliable sources that significantly cover the subject. Multiple published reviews, substantive discussion (not mere mentions) in scholarly works, and so on. See Yank! and The Temperamentals, two articles on stage shows I recently worked on, for examples showing such sourcing. I searched for sources before suggesting this article be deleted and didn't find anything to indicate that the musical is notable. Should the professional production that's anticipated for this fall come about, then reliable sources might be generated. If so, then another editor will probably take notice and write an article. Since you're an author of the musical, you should refrain from writing or editing it, but if you do it's important that you disclose your connection to the subject on your talk page and the talk page for the article.
 * As far as including material on the musical in Bride of Frankenstein and Frankenstein in popular culture goes, it first needs to be established that the musical itself is notable, as non-notable material tends to be considered trivia and removed. Should the musical be considered notable, before adding it to BoF there should be reliable sources that make the connection between the film and the musical beyond the shared naming aspect. Is GBoF a re-telling of the BoF story, is it a re-imagining, do they share plot, characters, setting, theme, and so on. Same goes for the FIPC article, possibly even more so, because "Foo in popular culture" articles tend to get overloaded with "This one character in this one episode of this TV show said 'Foo' once"-type information, turning them into dumping grounds. See Adaptations of Moby-Dick, Champagne in popular culture and Adaptations of The Picture of Dorian Gray as examples of "in popular culture" articles that are better-done than most.

Just a comment on GBoF. The show was one of last years NYMF choices and I should think that alone would make it notable.72.71.251.37 (talk) 14:01, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
