 * According to this, this article has been repeatedly recreated and deleted at AfD and if so, could be speedied. I'll ping . Shawn in Montreal (talk) 02:03, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt This article about a non-notable film project canceled 16 years ago. The article is packed full of rumors, poorly referenced and terribly written. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  04:43, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I'd placed a speedy deletion tag on it, then realized that Articles for deletion/Batman Triumphant was way back in 2006. It may be necessary to reopen the discussion, I honestly don't know. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:20, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:PAGEDECIDE because Batman Triumphant is more known as part of the long development history of attempted Batman films between Schumacher and Nolan. It fits better in the context of Batman in film than as a stand-alone article that unnecessarily mimics a film-article structure. There may be some attempted films with extensive and focused coverage that would warrant a stand-alone article, but I don't find this to be one of them.

 * Delete and salt. Sometimes unmade films can become notable, but it's fairly rare. The coverage for this was pretty light and remains pretty light. That's why I'd deleted and salted X-ManJoshua's first attempt to make this at Batman Triumphant. This looks like it's actually somewhat of an attempt to avoid detection since X-ManJoshua didn't contact me about this and he also chose to list this at Batman in film, rather than Batman (1989 film series). (In other words, he used the "Main article: Batman Triumphant (Film)" template" at a different page than the one he originally listed, which shows me that he likely figured I'd have seen it and deleted it, so he went with another page.) X-ManJoshua, this is not the right way to go about creating this and I gave you a fairly good explanation of why I deleted this at Talk:Batman_Triumphant. To sum it up here, ultimately it's that this unmade film lacks the coverage necessary to show that it merits its own article. Even Superman Lives! doesn't have its own article and that has received far more coverage than this one did. (Although with the creation of the recent documentary, I think that SL might warrant its own page now.) Even the upcoming comic adaptation isn't really enough to warrant a page since the comic based upon Schumacher's vision for the entire series - it's not going to be a comic based on the unmade film per se. From the impression I've gotten it looks like it's going to be an entirely different beast entirely. When/if the comic comes out, that can have its own article (assuming it gains enough coverage) or at the very least, at the main page for the 1989 film series. This unmade film? This just doesn't have the coverage. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  04:03, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
