Well documented with external sources. Stop this vengeance against Hallmark. keep the movie.Savolya (talk) 12:41, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
 * In all fairness, most Hallmark movies rarely get coverage beyond a brief mention in passing of TV lineups. I absolutely adore Hallmark movies, but the sheer volume with which they're created and released makes it fairly impossible for all of them to get enough coverage to justify inclusion. I'd say that about 2-10% of them actually gain the needed coverage. There's just too many of them for outlets to really cover, as covering them would take away time and space needed to cover other films and people. It's kind of the nature of the beast with film coverage as a whole, but particularly when it comes to anything that isn't a top tier mainstream film like say, anything in the MCU or by Nicholas Sparks.

 * Agree with Reader. I have no issue with Hallmark movies, or tv movies in general. However, beyond the basic credits/stats and a plot summary, there is no encyclopedic information from most of these articles. Wikipedia is not just a database of every topic that has ever existed. Each article needs to meet a notability threshold, usually indicated by coverage from significant independent coverage. I would also argue that being included on a list of "Films to rewatch" or "Most popular movies" does not constitute significant coverage, especially such lists criteria are unclear and inclusion is again just a short synopsis.
