Intramural (film)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not appear to meet WP:FFILM. There are a handful of website references that indicate that filming might be scheduled but it hasn't been released or reviewed by anyone yet. Barney the barney barney (talk) 15:32, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

 * The filmmakers plan to release the film around the 2014 NFL season. DepressedPer (talk) 3:47, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Well... a release date doesn't really mean anything. Something can still achieve notability before its release. We have to have enough coverage in reliable sources to show notability per WP:NFF (future films). Offhand I noted that more than a few have issues because they're primary sources, routine database-type listings , or articles written by an alumni publication for the college the director attended . We can't really use any of those to show notability. Now when it comes to the other sources, the one from ComingSoon.net looks to be a reprint of a press release, which is considered to be a WP:PRIMARY source regardless of where it is posted. The Austinot is a blog that seems to accept submissions from a wide variety of people, so I don't think it'd be the exception to the WP:BLOG rule. I think you could use it for some smaller things, but I wouldn't hinge notability upon it. Now as far as the rest goes, those look good. The Austin Fusion Magazine article was written by a staff member, The Wrap is always good as a RS, and the ABJ is good as well. It's a good start, but to really cement notability for an unreleased film, we need more. I'll see what I can find, but offhand I'm thinking that this might be a bit too soon.

 * That said, we might be able to rationalize an article for the director since he's done a previous work that has received at least one review. I'm not finding a huge amount out there for the film, but if I can't find enough for NFF purposes what would happen is that we'd make the director's article and redirect Intramural to there, but with the history intact so that when/if it gets more coverage we can always un-redirect and have the article history to pull from.

 * Keep. It's a borderline weak keep, but there is coverage of the production before, during, and after. True, much of it is local, but we have coverage that isn't. It's very, very close but I think it just manages to squeak by WP:NFF. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   11:34, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep similar findings to Tokyogirl79. Not the most notable film project out there, and I'd probably re-vote to delete if this ultimately doesn't get released, but as it presently looks I'd say it's just notable enough. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:38, 6 March 2014 (UTC)


 * I added the link to its scheduled premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival. DepressedPer (talk) 12:10, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep, notability seems to be established. -- do ncr  am  15:41, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment: I've created a page for the director and if by some chance (which looks somewhat slim at this point) that this is deleted, this should redirect to Andrew Disney with the history intact. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   13:15, 9 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep We have the confirmation missed by the nominator that the project has completed filming, and we do have coverage, WP:NF is met. Seems a no-brainer keep. Perhaps the nom might consider a withdrawal?   Schmidt,  Michael Q. 18:05, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
