The result was  delete merge to incubator version (see below). As MQS notes, I incubated the earlier version of this after Articles for deletion/Race 2 and established a redirect at Race 2 with a comment expressly asking people not to start another parallel article. I do not see enough new here to warrant the complications of a formal merge, but I will invite both the original author and the major contributor to work on the incubated version.

 * After second thoughts, I have performed a history merge, so that the incubator version is now the (more recent and better referenced) one which was the subject of this AfD, and the history contains the attribution for both versions. JohnCD (talk) 21:36, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

 * "Race 2 while start shooting in early 2011" Please read WP:NFF. Thanks.  Mike  Allen '  21:21, 24 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep - a notable film.Shyamsunder (talk) 20:24, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * No doubt. I never said it wasn't.  It hasn't started filming and it fails the WP:NFF guideline, which states filming should commence before making an article.  Mike   Allen   21:21, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Ahhh... but WP:NFF and WP:CRYSTAL both allow that notability for an as-yet-unmade film might be found through extensive coverage... and we do have articles for such here on Wikipedia. Sometimes a project might have a great deal of pre-production coverage speaking toward cast, director, plot, etc... and all that pre-production press can add up to enough slap the GNG on the back.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 02:59, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, but that simply does not exist for this film or I wouldn't have sent it to AfD. :)  Mike  Allen   03:57, 25 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Merge any sourced new information to Article Incubator/Race 2 See: Articles for deletion/Race 2. Per consensus on March 4 2010, closer set a redirect to Race (2008 film) and sent the article to incubation to bide its time and be improved.  He also left a note on the page specifically to prevent an inopportune recreation.  Author here simply used a different name.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 02:59, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Concur with this.  Mike  Allen   03:57, 25 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Also: it would be good to inform the article's major cobtributor, User:Ekabhishek, that we already have this one in incubation... just waiting for his improvements and a re-evaluation before return to mainspace.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 03:03, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't meet WP:CRYSTAL and WP:NFF. JmacBrown (talk) 12:04, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Incubate per MichaelQSchmidt. Filming hasn't started yet, and until it does this should be covered in the Sequel section of the article of the film it will be a sequel to.  Cliff smith  talk  15:30, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Err... its already been incubated. My suggestion is simply that any new sourced information be merged to what is already in the incubator.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 15:58, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
