How to Be Indie: The Movie

 * – ( View AfD View log )

An IP editor posted the AFD tag on this article. When I went to remove it, I checked for references and supporting sources that would show that the subject was notable - and could find no sources of any kind to support the existance of this film. I can find the facebook page, and this article, but there are no news hits at all. The cast does not appear to have a film of this title listed in their credits at imdb (which, I know, isn't a RS as such, but they're usually on the ball about such things). There's no coverage of the premiere, which according to the article already took place. If the film were scheduled for a May 2012 release (and was complete enough to have had a premiere), surely something would be available somewhere? It's possible this is a case of WP:CRYSTAL and the article is just premature, but I'm skeptical at best. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 13:29, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - this is a WP:CRYSTAL case at best, and possibly a hoax. Either way, if there aren't any sources, we shouldn't have an article on it yet. Robofish (talk) 15:07, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:CRYSTAL applies here, particularly given the "rumors" at the bottom. Not that such rumors don't occasionally pan out.  A reference on the show's main page to a possible movie would be more than sufficient until such time as a release/airing is formally announced.Tyrenon (talk) 15:31, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Agree with the nominator. The article asserts coverage at the YTV website, but I could not find any. It asserts having a premier in Toronto, but I could not verify this. Even if not a hoax, the lack of coverage for this film makes this article WP:TOOSOON. Fails WP:NF and WP:GNG.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 01:19, 7 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete as a crystal ball exercise, at best. Carrite (talk) 04:01, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete and snow close. There's nothing out there about this movie. Considering that it's supposedly rumored to have some pretty well known stars in them, you'd think that it'd have at least a few news articles discussing said rumors. Not only that, but for it to be releasing soon, it'd have press releases out there as well. Even if it isn't a hoax or a rumor, it's just too soon to have this posted.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 05:36, 7 February 2012 (UTC)tokyogirl79
 * Delete Likely a Hoax, even if its not there lack of coverage to verify it or write an article. Toasted (talk) 20:48, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
