List of Seinfeld fictional films

What's the deal with this article? It's about fictional films within a fictional universe, with no real world information. It's mainly OR, with only source mentioning that one of the films was the name of a Larry David script that wasn't produced. This isn't the Seinfeld wiki fansite.

 * Delete- I agree wholeheartedly with the nominator. It's mostly original research, and excessive detail on fictional trivia- and there's hardly a source to be seen. There are enough fan sites out there; let's not turn this serious encyclopedia into yet another one. Reyk  YO!  03:33, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Neutral I agree that it is not properly sourced, on the other hand the article is of considerable length and a lot of effort has been put into it. So the article lemma itself is not the problem, only that it's not properly sourced. If sources can be brought, forward I would agree to keep it. --hroest 08:45, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment This one would work better as an addition to the | Seinfeld wiki. Back in 2006, before entertainment wikis, there was a place for such items on Wikipedia, but these are moving across town to a new neighborhood. Mandsford (talk) 14:38, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is obviously a reasonable topic for WP -- such articles are commonly found here, and therefore there is no strong reason for deletion. Questions regarding RS belong on the article talk page, since RS can easily be found for this; therefore, there is no reason to debate RS on AfD.  These movies are extremely well-known--better-known, in fact, than many movies that actually exist.  This list does not need to make historical claims about real movies, only that these movies are related to Seinfeld and are known to millions of people. Qworty (talk) 16:34, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete I would need to see some independent sources to establish notability ... I reserve the right to change my mind, but my brief look turned up nothing that seemed to establish the notability of this. LonelyBeacon (talk) 04:17, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong delete Send it to Seinfeld-pedia, if there is one. This is a lot like List of Peter Griffin's jobs, in that it's a cute little in-universe article that would be great for a wiki specifically devoted to the show, but has no place whatsoever in a general-interest encyclopedia.
