2011 British Academy Scotland New Talent Awards

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

"best upcoming talent" means not yet notable. In fact, though these awards were in 2011, none of them seem to be notable so far.  DGG ( talk ) 09:28, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep The awards are recognised by IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/event/ev0000124/overview) --ChrisGFA (talk) 02:23, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The rising star award hasn't been removed from the 67th British Academy Film Awards article even though the same applies. --ChrisGFA (talk) 02:26, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * "What exactly is recognition of an award by IMdB, and how does that confer notability on the award?  DGG ( talk ) 06:09, 26 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep Not every film award is listed on imdb. Whilst users can make suggestions for edits, the awards section has to go before a panel. Imdb is recognised as the main central database for information regarding film, television and its industry professionals. --ChrisGFA (talk) 14:11, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, only one "vote" to each editor.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 07:22, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I think the article has some merit and certainly has reliable secondary sources. Its not much different from the likes of ACB Best Young Player Award, AFL Rising Star, Euroleague Rising Star, 2009 Shanghai International Film Festival, to name but a few. Evening Times (talk) 14:23, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Keep There are XFactor contestants with pages on wikipedia who have haven't been heard from since their appearance. If we are going to remove Bafta winners for being non notable then there would need to be a serious overhaul of Wikipedia. Evening Times (talk) 16:46, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Natg 19 (talk) 01:05, 2 January 2015 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Keep There is considerable press attention around the winners and bear in mind this is BAFTA recognising these professionals, not some random film club. Notability argument for grounds of deletion seems somewhat weak. DrColePorter (talk) 02:13, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep per everyone above - If it were some minor club then I'd understand but BAFTA's are pretty big when it comes to awards & all that so will have to say Keep. – Davey 2010 Talk 02:26, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Minor award by a major organisation. Passes the importance test. doktorb wordsdeeds 14:49, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
