Daniel M. Shirley, The BSDS Production Company and Roanoke: The Lost Colony
A walled garden of vanity articles about a film maker, his company and his current production. Edited out of the latter is the fact that the movie is not due out until 2007. Vanity, not (yet) notable, crystal ballery. -- RHaworth 21:44, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete All per reasons given by nom. Came across this when reviewing the article on Bertie Stephens, which I have already nominated for deletion. Agent 86 22:43, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep All. They are a credible source, and considering this is an 'encyclopedia', what harm is there in allowing articles that have truth and substance. Why do people search an encyclopedia? to find information about something. What do these articles provide...truthful information. Ive seen more crap in more 'notable' articles.

 * Keep All Feel its unfair to say its a walled garden, when it's linked from and to 'roanoke' based articles Bullard21 13:05, 3 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep All ghits seem credible linked to film which external links seem credible


 * Keep All The Wikipedia guidelines state Vanity articles are "empty of any interest to anyone".I find it hard to believe that a movie on an extremely famous subject can be "empty of any interest to anyone".

Guidelines also state. "An article should not be dismissed as "vanity" simply because the subject is not famous". So exactly how can articles be deleted based on one individuals 'mini' research on the subject claiming 'no notability'82.43.72.117 09:08, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
