Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paco and the Magical Picture Book


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result was Delete with no prejudice to re-creation when more information is available. WP:CSB can't override policy here, and a Western film with nothing but an IMDB listing would also fall prey to this.  E LIMINATOR JR  18:16, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Paco and the Magical Picture Book

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Page on an "forthcoming" movie, with IMDB as the only source. IMDB is not a reliable source, though. So, without reliable sources, this is very much a WP:CRYSTAL page, IMHO. TexasAndroid 19:04, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Keep We have a confirmed movie that is filming, by a well known Japaneses director with three of the cast noteworthy enough to have their own wiki articles. And now IMDB is a crystal ball?

How does deleting a stub which passes WP:V, WP:RS and WP:NOTE, of a future event that we currently have little information on make a better encyclopedia?Sethie 19:18, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Delete as it stands, this doesn't warrant its own article. And there seems to be very little else out there with more details, right now. --Oscarthecat 20:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Very weak keep. Have to be careful this doesn't fall victim to systematic bias. As it stands the article the article fails WP:V and WP:RS. IMDB on its own isn't reliable enough, but I have no reason to doubt that the movie is confirmed and noteworthy. Presumably media references can be added, even if they are in Japanese.

 * I didn't want to cry "cultural bias" even though I was thinking it... and I'm glad you did. Sethie 17:57, 28 August 2007 (UTC)


 * If I found a page for an upcoming American film that was as badly sourced as this one I would have AFDed it just as fast. "Cultural bias" played zero role in this situation.  The article as it stands fails verifyability standards, it's as simple as that, nothing more. - TexasAndroid 19:37, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete per above. Despite the assertion above that reliable Japanese sources exist, there's nothing here or in the article. If IMDB is the only source that we have on hand, then I'd agree to delete it for the time being.--Chaser - T 17:33, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
