AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails both WP:NFILM (if it was actually released) and WP:NFF (if it is still unreleased). Donald D23  talk to me  14:31, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
 * The Emmys (link below) states: "The movie was entered into the 2005 DC Film Festival, but was never released to the public." So it's a technically released film, but with no distribution. See also this. If redirected to NP filmo (or kept), this can be added. Best, - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)  19:31, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Note: Three are 3 another language articles.

 * it:Domino One
 * cy:Domino One


 * And none of them have citations that support notability. They are all database sites. Donald D23   talk to me  18:20, 5 November 2023 (UTC)


 * The Emmys website states the director was best known for this film, fwiw. Lots (and I do mean lots) of passing mentions of the film about his death/Portman (very often mentioning it as his best known film). But also mentioned with some details in  Encyclopedia of African American Actresses in Film and Television. As Louvel has no page, I think Keep would be a fair decision for now. Ready to add some sources if this solution is chosen. Considering what the sources say, I would not be opposed to a Redirect to Natalie Portman filmography, where it is mentioned.- My, oh my!

 * Delete. This film does not appear to satisfy WP:NFILM. Most of the coverage of this film consists of brief mentions in the director's obituaries; the most detailed coverage I have seen, from the Encyclopedia of African American Actresses in Film and Television cited above, has only two sentences about this film. The notability guidelines for film require "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject"; there are independent reliable sources but they don't have significant coverage. (And I haven't found any coverage at all from sources that are non-independent or unreliable, either.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:39, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails GNG and NFILM/NFF. Source in article is a datbase record, not WP:IS WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. "Sources" above are not about the subject, but mention the subject in passing, and the rationale is refuted by NOTINHERITED.  // Timothy :: talk  14:17, 7 November 2023 (UTC)


 * The official website appeared to be www.dominoone.com (now down, but historically accessible via the Wayback Machine. Ready to add some sources via 29/4/2005 version. Flénu (talk) 17:11, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment: I cannot see what my !vote would have to do with WP:NOTINHERITED. I am not saying the film should be kept because Portman plays in it, for example. As for contemptuous quotation marks added to the word sources, well, ....- My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)  09:04, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
