Maintenance meltdown
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam); and,
 * 4) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines.

Not only that, but the film appears to be a non-notable student film, and is likely to be deleted. —C.Fred (talk) 02:23, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Other editing comments
Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.'  —C.Fred (talk) 02:31, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Maintenance meltdown
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Maintenance meltdown, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * Wikipedia is not for things made up for school one day. Utterly non-notable student film; zero Google hits. Based on the username, the author of the article is likely one of the cast-/crewmembers.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. —C.Fred (talk) 04:20, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. —C.Fred (talk) 04:34, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Given that the film is not notable and not verifiable—and thus fails the two core criteria for articles, why should it be allowed to remain? —C.Fred (talk) 04:35, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * we are currently in the process of verifying the legitimacy of our film...
 * Thank you for confirming the conflict of interest I suspected.
 * And we don't doubt that the film exists. We doubt that it's notable—significant or important—enough to warrant an encyclopedia entry, especially since nothing else has been written about it. —C.Fred (talk) 04:43, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * The AfD process is scheduled to run five days—although, if another editor determines that your intention is just to promote your film, it could be deleted immediately. —C.Fred (talk) 04:44, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * what is the AfD process? --Jmh0705 (talk) 04:48, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Articles for deletion. —C.Fred (talk) 04:52, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

i am not trying to promote the film. if this page is classified as promoting the film, does that not mean that similar pages on various films should also be classified as promoting the film? secondly, why is the film not being notable a problem, everything has to start somewhere small doesn't it. --Jmh0705 (talk) 04:59, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Again, this is where the conflict of interest comes into play. However, I don't think the article as it stands now is blatant advertising.
 * As for everything starting small, you're right. That doesn't mean everything gets a Wikipedia article. There's a certain minimum threshold—the notability standard—that subjects have to meet before they can get an article. Nothing in the article shows that the film is notable: there's no mention of awards, no coverage in newspapers or other media outlets, etc. —C.Fred (talk) 05:02, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

the script of the film is currently in the process of being entered into a playwriting competion and this may attract media attention which would verify the films notability--Jmh0705 (talk) 05:13, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Which is all in the future. The film has no notability now. —C.Fred (talk) 05:23, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

however the thing that is hard to prove to you is this film has local notability. i would estimate over 100 people have seen the film and many more know of it. does this not make it notable?--Jmh0705 (talk) 05:49, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. —C.Fred (talk) 04:45, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Is there any way that we can convince you to not delete our page? --Jmh0705 (talk) 10:13, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The best way to convince others to keep the article is to make sure it meets criteria set out at the film notability guidelines. - Mgm|(talk) 11:33, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Bidgee (talk) 02:39, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Hotcrocodile (talk) 03:40, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
