Blackwashing in film

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested redirect: per, '.' A WP:BEFORE indicates that what sources there are are mostly unreliable (blogs and zines), with the occasional RS using the phrase in passing (often in any case in a different conetext to films) and subjecting it to insufficient cooverage on its own merits to demonstrate WP:DEPTH or WP:PERSISTENT coverage. Using the word will satisfy WP:WIKTIONARY, but not WP. Fails WP:GNG. Support suggestion made to redirect to Colour-blind casting, if the sources can be much improved. &mdash; O Fortuna   semper crescis, aut decrescis  15:04, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect per nom. Yes, there isn't enough usage, enough of a phenomenon, for an article. The term has been raised around a couple of casting choices, that of "Annie" and Mary Jane in Spiderman, but it falls short of GNG. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:12, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Color-blind casting or delete. Per ChiveFungi not enough sources exist for this to pass notability guidelines. Sro23 (talk) 18:28, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect per others. This was created last January, and I proposed it for deletion with the following rationale: "Article does not appear to meet WP:GNG, also WP:CONTENTFORK problems with Color-blind casting, and WP:SPA concerns with the article creator raised at Talk:Whitewashing in film." Salt if necessary to avoid a third article creation. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 16:21, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect per all the above.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 16:19, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
