Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. To find out how to make useful contributions, take a look at the welcome page. To stay in Wikipedia, an article has to be about something notable, that is, of general interest. Click on Notability for an explanation of what that means. Also, it must give independently verifiable sources. Articles that don't meet these requirements are likely to be deleted. Follow the links below to learn more: JohnCD (talk) 11:47, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
 * To find out more about creating articles, read the Introduction and the Guide to creating your first article.
 * You should not write articles about yourself, your band, or your best friend - that's a conflict of interest.
 * Wikipedia's notability policy for films says that Films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles.
 * For experiments, please use the sandbox.

Advice
I'm sorry to propose all your Sonic film articles for deletion, but I'm afraid they just don't meet Wikipedia's standards. As you'll see from the links in the Welcome paragraph above, articles have to be able to be verified from reliable sources - an encyclopedia, which is what Wikipedia is, doesn't have things based just on rumours, such as you might find on discussion forums. Over the years, standards have been worked out for what is acceptable - for films, you can find them at WP:NF, and for future events generally WP:CRYSTAL is the policy about things that might happen in the future. That's part of WP:NOT, which explains all the things that Wikipedia isn't. Don't be discouraged: read those policies, and follow the links from the Welcome paragraph to find out more about how to contribute. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:19, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
