Kamen Rider Blade: Missing Ace
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

A previous AfD for this article closed in September of last year without consensus. The closing administrator wished to provide editors with the opportunity to find Japanese or hardcopy sources and recommended that the article be revisited "in a month or two." It has been ten months since the AfD closed and no new sources have been added to the article. This article fails Wikipedia's notability guidelines for films. Neelix (talk) 16:45, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - I searched high and wide on imdb.com for this movie: but it is not documented there. If it aint in IMDB, it shouldnt have its own WP article.  IMDB does show the underlying Kamen Rider Blade TV show, but not a "feature length movie" as this article claims.  If such a movie exists (and there is a chance it does exist, based on some google hits) it can be described in the main Kamen Rider Blade article, but it does not merit its own article. --Noleander (talk) 01:06, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Since it's a theatrical movie, it is surely notable. It's just that it's 7 years old, so any news about its release are hard to find. Moscowconnection (talk) 16:48, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * This appears to be a professional review: Moscowconnection (talk) 17:03, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as nominator - The statement that this film was theatrically released is not sourced. Furthermore, a film's notability is not demonstrated by whether or not it was released in theatres; its notability is demonstrated by reliable sources. Ten months after an AfD should be quite a sufficient amount of time to find significant coverage of the topic in reliable secondary sources if such coverage does in fact exist. That the film is seven years old should make sources easier to find, not harder; the more time has passed, the more sources are likelier to have been written and the likelier it is that those sources will be inserted into journal article databases and the like.

 * No, if it's a movie for elementary school kids. The movie was in the news back then, it's obvious. Moscowconnection (talk) 00:15, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Here it is, the Director's Cut was 13th on Oricon: MISSING ACE Director's Cut Moscowconnection (talk) 00:21, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * An entry on a single list does not constitute significant coverage. Neelix (talk) 12:21, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
