Deleted once as an expired prod. Have they now provided sufficient evidence of notability? &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 08:39, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, and rationale at talk page. New university-level film festival, insufficiently sourced to support notability. 99.137.209.90 (talk) 11:16, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - neither source supplied are independent of the university. I have carried out due diligence searches but I can find no evidence that it can meet WP:GNG. Bridgeplayer (talk) 02:21, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * There will be a story coming out in a month or so in the Press & Sun-Bulletin, a daily periodical serving the Binghamton area. Would such a source be sufficient enough to make this page notable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Afiore321 (talk • contribs) 21:40, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately we need to see the article before we can judge its contribution to notability. Bridgeplayer (talk) 22:29, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I have just added several sources to the page. They are websites of several of the artists who contributed to last year's film festival. They all reference SEFF Binghamton. Does this make the page more notable? The sources are all unaffiliated with the University. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Afiore321 (talk • contribs) 22:40, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * No, per WP:RELIABLE. Artist's blogs and 'Linkedin' pages are not acceptable sources. Additionally, adding programs of non-notable films and their producers just looks like an attempt at promotion, and at the least is WP:LISTCRUFT. 99.137.209.90 (talk) 23:24, 15 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Return to author at User:Afiore321/draft/Student Experimental Film so he can continue working on it, as it is definitely not ready yet for article space. And to User:Afiore321... I urge you to study WP:PRIMER to get a feel for Wikipedia's requirements, and then WP:V to understand that everything written in an article MUST be verifiable in a reliable source, and then WP:RS to help you better understand just how Wikipedia determines what a reliable source is. Ask input from others as you work, and you WILL get the avice you need. Let the festival get reviews and coverage, and at such time as a streamlined and far better sourced article is ready for a return, it will be welcomed. It's just that this one is too soon.
