Killer Diller (1948 film)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails the requirements of WP:NFILM, lacks significant coverage in multiple independent secondary sources. IMDb is not an acceptable or reliable source. Dan arndt (talk) 23:56, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

 *  Weak keep. As a race film, it didn't get a lot of coverage, but there is a substantial Film Threat review. It's hard to imagine with all the notable acts in the movie that it doesn't get some secondary notice as well. Clarityfiend (talk) 10:14, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I've expanded the article. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:33, 26 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep per Clarityfiend's improvements. Donald D23   talk to me  11:48, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Passes WP:NFILM and WP:SIGCOV. A simple google books search reveals numerous academic books on African American films, comediennes, and comedy which address this film "directly and in detail". In addition to the ones added to the article by Clarityfield, I also added a few sources. Clearly WP:BEFORE was not followed.4meter4 (talk) 17:00, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
