List of unmade and unreleased Disney animated shorts and feature films

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A list of unproduced, unfinished, and unreleased films is a list of a lot of nothing. Unverifiable and WP:CRYSTALBALL. Dolovis (talk) 04:44, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep notable enough that there's a whole published book on the topic (The Disney That Never Was, ISBN 0786860375). Some of the later stuff is unsourced and could probably use some trimming, but that's no reason to delete the whole article. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  05:11, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per above, clearly defined criteria for inclusion, no shortage of sources. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 05:35, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per relevant sources. The article could stand a better title though; perhaps List of unreleased Disney media?.  Erpert  Who is this guy? 08:43, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - Appears to meet notability by way of books that cover the subject matter. Needs a serious cleanup though, as everything from the 70's onward lacks a source.  The rename suggestion is good as well. Tarc (talk) 17:00, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Meets wp:list criterion, sources establish notability of subject. walk victor falktalk 16:44, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep Everything animated that is related to Walt and his company is notable including the shorts and features that never were as Walt was prone to halt exiting projects for various of reasons, sometimes for lack of originality, workload to much or to save cost, if Walt had had finished all of these unmade projects he probably would have ended up with an animated short library that probably would have matched the Looney Tunes in nr of produced shorts and probably twice as many animated features. I would say that everything unproduced/unreleased during Walt is life time seems to be accurate but the article should also keep track on post Walt unproduced/unreleased stuff since practice of halting projects didn't vanish with Walt is passing. Although I can agree that post 1970 material needs better sourcing and confirmation as I understand this article it list films that were put into pre-production at minimum (storyboard/concept art) and/or production (rough animation/pencil test) but halted for various of reason as I said before. If a film is not even consider for pre-production at minimum (storyboard/concept art) it shouldn't be included in the list at al as such films should be considered bogus, rumors a.k.a WP:CRYSTALBALL and should be removed from the article but films put at minimum into pre-productions should be included on the list as long as it meets wp:list criterion, sources establish notability of abandoned project in question. But about moving the article to new name as I can see that the current name is confusing I did move the article form List of unmade and unreleased Disney animated shorts and feature films to List of unreleased Disney animated shorts and feature films or List of unreleased Disney animated projects rather than already suggested List of unreleased Disney media as that title clearly mix animated projects with live-action projects and I not so sure if that is a wise move so I would suggest that if unamde live-action Disney projects will ever gets there own list i did suggest on of the following titles: List of unreleased Disney live-action shorts and feature films or List of unreleased Disney live-action projects.
