Boat The Movie

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article about a non-notable film with absolutely no verifiable content. Possible hoax. I42 (talk) 20:26, 12 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment. Article creator has commented on the talk page. I42 (talk) 20:42, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I've moved the comment here (see below) -- no point in having the discussion in two places. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:58, 12 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete: I found zero sources. Joe Chill (talk) 21:33, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

 * USerfy back to author with encouragement to return the article once it has been released and has coverage.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 22:51, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Just because you have not heard of the film, does not mean it is non-notable. It has a sizeable fanbase, particularly in scotland. and as I have previously said, it is not a hoax, it is real. This site claims to be an encyclopedia, and yet pages are deleted because of a topic being relatively unknown. it's shameful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Manofeggs (talk • contribs) 20:33, 12 February 2010
 * See WP:N and WP:V. This is not an encyclopedia of everything, it's an encyclopedia of what is notable. And more importantly, it has to be verifiable. This article meets neither of those requirements. Wikipedia is not a place to promote your work. I42 (talk) 20:37, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I've got AGF coming out of my fingertips, but it's very hard to believe that anything which has a "sizeable fan base" anywhere in the English-speaking world would get absolutely no Google hits whatsoever.  Before we even go to the question of notability, I think you need to establish the actual existence of this film.  Would you please post any link, of any kind (fan website, director's webpage, anything) that would show that this is not a hoax?  Without some indication of that, I see no possibility of this being saved from deletion. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:54, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * {copied from discussion page) This is ridiculous. I've had just about enough of this nonsense, why would something need hits on google to be pouplar. there's more to life than the internet, perhaps those who are interested in this film have better things to do with their lives and interests than sit in front of a computer screen all their lives. I shall delete the page myself, as I have tired of the band of self absorber cyberfreaks that are running this corrupt establishment. This site can sink into the ground for all I care. What a waste of my time. posted by User:Manofeggs 13:26, 13 February 2010


 * Delete - Probable hoax or personal project. Editor doesn't seem interested in cooperating. Beyond My Ken (talk) 18:42, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Article creator deleted the text of the article, leaving a "This article has been deleted" note on the page. Technically, he can't do this, so I've restored the article, but added a "db-author" speedy delete tag for him. I think that wraps this up. Beyond My Ken (talk) 18:47, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
