Deadpool (film)

 * ... that the upcoming film Deadpool is based on the Marvel's character of same name, who last appeared in X-Men Origins: Wolverine?
 * ALT1 ... that Marvel's character Deadpool is getting his own solo film after appearing in X-Men Origins: Wolverine in 2009?
 * QPQ: Donut County
 * Comment: I'd suggest ALT1.

 * Symbol question.svg Hook fact for the original is not actually in the article. It just says that he previously appeared in the film, not that it was his most recent. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:32, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, per WP:NFF this is about a week premature. The guidelines require Principal photography to have actually commenced. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:34, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Filming has begun now. X-Men Origins: Wolverine is the last/previous film, the character appeared before as far as I read in Deadpool. -- Captain Assassin! «T ♦ C ♦ G» 12:20, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * It's most likely correct to assert this, but we need a source which makes the assertion. Doing so ourselves is original synthesis. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:34, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * It's obvious that he appeared in X-Men Origins: Wolverine last time. Ref.8 is proving the fact. -- Captain Assassin! «T ♦ C ♦ G» 16:53, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg first hook, with "who last appeared in X-Men Origins: Wolverine", is not directly stated by the sources. ALT1, however, is fine. Article is new enough and long enough. ALT1 is referenced, checks out. No close paraphrasing found, nor any copyvio. No image to check. ALT1 is good to go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:47, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
