Max Magician and the Legend of the Rings

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Article asserts no notability whatsoever. There's no indication that this is a notable film. Sugar Bear (talk) 19:19, 30 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete All of the cast and crew in the article and infobox are redlinks, as is the author and director, and there is no mention of notability, popularity or awards recieved by the film. W a c k y Wace  talk 19:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - A direct to video movie which was not covered in any reliable sources. -- Whpq (talk) 19:47, 31 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment It needs sourcing elsewhere, but the official website asserts winning of 3 awards.
 * 'Best Feature Film', Kids Fest Film Festival
 * 'Best Youth-Oriented Narrative', BareBones International Film Festival
 * 'Best Make-Up Effects', Bare Bones International Film Festival
 * If the festivals are major enough for direct-to-video children's films, then the winning of these awards would seem to show notability.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 17:08, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - Setting aside the issue of whether the Bare Bones film festival is notable, I looked at IMDB. IMDB is not a reliable source, so this will have to be taken with a grain of salt, but I checked the Bare Bones 2002 award results listed there and makeup went to "Biohazardous".  I actually checked every entry listed on IMDB for Bare Bones which runs from 2000 to 2009 and this movie isn't listed for any awards in any of those entries.  The Festval's web site is on tripod and provides no list of past winners. -- Whpq (talk) 17:51, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Further Comment - I've done some digging into claim #1 about the win at Kids Fest. I cannot even identify the actual festival this is supposed to be.  A search for Kids Fest film festival turns up a dizzying array of results.  Qualifying it with "max magician" turns up nothing useful. -- Whpq (talk) 14:33, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the additional research. Had the awards been confirmable and notable, then this article might have had a chance. Your due diligence is commendable and most appreciated.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 18:13, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of coverage and the awards being unsourcable.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 18:13, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
