Ravedactyl: Project Evolution

Non-notable subject with no sources that establish otherwise Nightscream (talk) 19:20, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak delete I caught this when it was created and added a weak source, but since then no one has found anything substantial, and I can't find anything either. Has a notable cast, including Coolio, but no secondary sources to show real notability. It was supposed to have won some award, which would make it notable, but I can't find any proof it really won.   P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 19:59, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I think Schmidt has done enough work sourcing it to prove it is notable.   P HARMBOY   ( moo )  10:29, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

 * The only source I can find that the film won the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival award for best short film, is the director's website saying so. The website for the film festival has awards going back past then, but the archive unfortunately doesn't include a page for Feb 2003, which is the date that this film was shown. There are no news items that I can find to back up the claim either. I also can't find any reviews by critics. Delete for lack of notability. Raven1977 (talk) 00:08, 27 October 2008 (UTC) Changing my vote to Weak Keep, due to the below finding of the festival award. Raven1977 (talk) 04:06, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep as I have just given the article a major facelift... and I did find the award ath the film festivals site as having been given in 2003 in New York, as the archives DO go back that far. At THIS link, on the left click "awards", and then click "past awards", then scroll down to "New York - april 2003", then scroll down to "SHORT FILM CATEGORY". Its there. PS: The page is Flash based, so I cannot get a page URL... one has to specifically go through this click-the-internal-links crap.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 01:14, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment FYI, through sneaky use of "Copy link location" I snagged the award link and the citation reference in the article now leads to the actual awards link. Raven1977 (talk) 04:06, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * And the direct link, per Raven's excellent 'sneaky" insight: nyfilmvideo.com, New York, February 2003, Winner for "Best Action" in "Short Film Category"  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 04:09, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
