Grain of Sand (Fictional Film)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a "film" which exists only as a fictional plot point within another film, with no reliable sourcing or real-world context to demonstrate a reason why it would warrant a standalone article as a separate topic from its parent film. Wikipedia is not a fan site on which every individual plot point in a film automatically warrants its own separate article, and the only "sources" here are the parent film itself, and a review of that parent film which contains only minimal content about the film-within-a-film -- so this topic should certainly be discussed in the article on I'm Not There, but nothing here warrants a separate article about this.

 * Merge into I'm Not There. Very little independent coverage of this "film within a film", and nothing worth putting in a separate article. crh23 (talk) 20:11, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect as it's actually not currently mentioned there and there's simply nothing to suggest an independently notable article. SwisterTwister   talk  04:47, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment: Something to be careful about with merging is that a lot of this seems to be written from the specific viewpoint of the editor and as such, really comes across strongly as WP:OR. It's also sourced heavily to only this review of I'm Not There, so there'd need to be other sources as well. I'm not against merging, just saying that this needs a lot of work and judgement before merging some of this information into the parent article. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  08:00, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge cautiously into I'm Not There, per Tokyogirl79. Bishonen &#124; talk 18:44, 7 April 2016 (UTC).
