1st IFMCA Awards

 * – (View AfD (View log  •  AfD statistics)

One of several pages of non-notable awards given by this non-notable organization. Like all the others, the primary editor for this page has a stated conflict of interest, and I'm unable to find reliable third-party sources. otherlleft 13:35, 7 December 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 00:32, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree with nom, I cannot find significant coverage for this organization or its awards. Delete all articles about the awards and the organization itself. Angryapathy (talk) 14:46, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Do not delete People, people. Are you seriously doubting the validity of the IFMCA and its members? I cannot understand the lack of any arguments whatsoever and put your comments in a logical and mature context no matter how hard i tried. If you are in any way actually involved with the film music area, you'd be already very well familar with the websites, magazines, webzines, blogs and organizations we represent such as: BSO Spirit (directly attached and responsible for the UBEDA film festivals, the highly successful and highly popular event amidst the circle of film music composers and professionals who also attend each year), Music From the Movies which is one of the oldest, boldest and still leading film music publications and sources, Soundtrack Net and ScoringSessions.com, possibly the most popular film music website after filmtracks, speaking of which - filmtracks itself, the most well-known film music destination for years, scoremagacine (head and organization committee of the highly popular and CD-released SONCINEMAD Madrid International Film Music festivals that took place in 2006 and 2007 with Trevor Jones and Alan Silvestri in concerts respectively, still continuing with future plans), TrackSounds one of the most active and varicolored major film music destinations to date and also one of the oldest and still strong and the same applies to scorereviews - maintitles.net, the bold Movie Music UK and of course the no.1 film music related website / releasing label and institution in the world, FSM (Film Score Monthly (USA), Ryan Keaveney's Cinemusic, easily one of the 'classics' in the film music modern history, more labels likeBSX, one of the leads in the film music releasing industry and of course the MovieScore Media that does a fantastic job promoting and releasing new and notable film music from upcoming bright talents in the genre, Southall's moviewave, filmmusicmag.com and other major film music websites, radios, and 'zines / publications of all kinds involving extremely well-knon professionals of the industry from the ENTIRE WORLD. I won't tire you with more copy-pastes, you can find it all here (http://filmmusiccritics.org/members/ - IFMCA's about page). THE ARGUMENTS PRESENTED ABOVE ARE UNFORTUNATELY UNJUSTIFIED AND UNPROFESSIONAL. MOST IMPORTANTLY THEY ARE COMPLETELY UNCALLED FOR IN A WEBSITE LIKE WIKIPEDIA WHICH GATHERS AND LISTS INFORMATIVE DATA FROM THE ENTIRE WORLD. I really hope this matter will be taken into account and be taken care of the soonest possible as it's an insult to the organization and their members, who constitute a significant percentage of the film music population. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Christodoulidesd (talk • contribs) 08:11, 11 December 2009 (UTC) — Christodoulidesd (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * If you would like to present third party coverage from independant, reliable sources, (instead of naming them) then I'd be more than happy to change my opinion. However, as it stands, this organization fails Wikipedia's notability standards. This makes no comment on the overall notability, but only applies to whether or not it merits inclusion here.

 * Another editor left the following message on the AfD article for the main International Film Music Critics Association page:
 * I am not sure how to take part in this discussion, but I suppose this is the place? Who decides whether or not an organization is "non-notable" or its members "totally unknown"? There are numerous independent sources online to verify the validity of the Wikipedia article:, , , , , , , , , , , . -- Moviescore (talk) 23:19, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete Per nom. Also, yelling is a great way to lose an argument and any respect. Nuclear Lunch Detected   Hungry?  02:29, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Please see Articles_for_deletion/International_Film_Music_Critics_Association - the discussion going on there directly affects these articles; if that article is deleted, th these will too (they should have been bundled). --JonBroxton (talk) 17:24, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
