Daybreak (2008 indie film)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Indie film released in 2008, hasn't won any prizes. Many reviews online, but I don't see how that makes it notable. Slashme (talk) 11:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. I'm not sure how reliable the sources are, but plenty of coverage certainly tends to suggest notability. PC78 (talk) 14:28, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Article is well written and sourced. Many films have notabilty that never won a prize. And since it was released only this year... even that could change. Schmidt (talk) 05:54, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Hello. I am the creator of the Daybreak article. I still believe that Wikipedia editors are intelligent and talented individuals and surely most of us (at least those who fully and truly understand the rules of Wikipedia as an online encyclopedia) will not create an article that is of low importance and isn't notable, so to speak. Daybreak is one of the best indie films ever released in the Philippines and it is still under current reviews as it was released only this year. In the Philippines, films of this kind are often brought as entry to various International Film Festivals such as the Cannes' or CineManila. In fact, one or two of the movies directed by Adolfo Alix, Jr. have already competed and won prizes in Europe and local media are expecting Daybreak to be this year's top choice. Since Daybreak is a young film, please let us give it a chance to earn its share of accolades in the coming months. I am a young editor from the Philippines trying to contribute and share my passion as a writer to the Wikipedia. You guys know more than I do so if you think this article should be deleted, then I will not stand on your way. Just give me a fair and reasonable explanation when you do so as not to waste my efforts for contributing here now and in the future. Like what I've said, final decision is yours. Thank you.

 * Well, it looks as if the consensus here is to keep the article, so don't worry! --Slashme (talk) 07:55, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
