Animals (film)

 * – ( View AfD View log )


 * Delete It is an finished and unreleased film - I don't see how this can be notable in any meaningful sense  Brookie :) { - he's in the building somewhere!}  (Whisper...) 16:05, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Independent low-budget film by first-time director with a fairly obscure cast that is still in the principal photography stage. There's a little bit of coverage but not much to build an article. Most of it is generated directly by the production company and cannot entirely be considered as independent third-party coverage. It should also be noted that the article itself and the related article Edward Drake (director) have been built by a team of single-purpose editors who clearly have a conflict of interest. Ironically, one of these editors has argued that Animals (film) should be kept "because of the publicity being generated form a production of this size". Pichpich (talk) 17:00, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Not enough of a mention in reliable secondary sources at present to reach notability, in the future it may be notable but wikipedia is not a WP:CRYSTALBALL. IRWolfie- (talk) 22:26, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect / Merge to filmmaker's article at Edward Drake (director) as we do have enough sources for this to be mentioned there in context to his career, even if not currently meriting a seperate article. If or when it is released and gets additional coverage, the redirect can be undone and the article expanded accordingly.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 09:17, 2 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Merge + Comment. Isn't it interesting that Reg Gorman is up for deletion at the same time, but I just remember reading a news article that he is helping this film maker produce his first movies and start to get going. Otherwise this fails notability and should be merge with Edward Drake (director) Ray-Rays 01:53, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Not practical to merge with Drake, as that article will probably be deleted also.  DGG ( talk ) 02:14, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
