Inferno (2010 film)

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

Film is still in pre-production. Production has been trying to move forward for a while, but since the film's lead star Lindsay Lohan was sent to jail and now in rehab they have replaced her. It is now scheduled to begin filming in February. Page goes against WP:NFF since filming has not begun and who knows if it ever will. — Mike  Allen   12:26, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:HAMMER--Shirt58 (talk) 13:16, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment. WP:HAMMER refers to albums where the name and track order is not known and, by extension, to 'other media where a name is not yet known'. Can you clarify how this applies here?-- K orr u ski Talk 14:30, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps he should have referred to WP:TOOSOON which is set to cover films. :)  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 20:48, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak keep . Failure to start principal photography does, indeed, fail WP:NFF. However, the project may nevertheless be notable due to the ongoing issues with Lindsay Lohan, and the recent change of stars. There is no shortage of coverage in gossip/celeb mags, but demonstrating reliable coverage may be a little harder.-- K orr u ski Talk 14:49, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, per NFF. If the principal photography hasn't begun yet then there is no film to speak of and there should not be an article about it. Many film projects are announced and go through casting and production problems before one of three scenarios generally happen: 1-project is cancelled, 2-project resumes production and goes into filming, 3-project ends up in development hell. Once in development hell, it's not unusual for projects to spend a decade or more teetering between the above mentioned scenarios 1 and 2. That period is inevitably always full of rumors and speculation and it doesn't befit any self-respecting encyclopedia to keep up with such gossip. As far as Lohan's connection to the project is concerned, it is better covered in her own article rather than in a separate article which may in time prove to have no connection to her at all. I suspect (but I may be wrong) that this isn't the only project whose future is dependent upon her legal and other issues so it benefits the encyclopedia more to have those types of issues described centrally in her article rather than scatter it all over Wikipedia.

 * Mmmm. Yes, on reflection, I'm inclined to agree. Delete-- K orr u ski Talk 17:47, 1 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete without prejudice per WP:TOOSOON. While this project might show notability in the future, it does not yet have the enduring coverage to be an allowable ezception to WP:NFF. If this changes, it might be considered for a return.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 20:48, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
