The Expendables 3

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article is about a film that is well before filming, and presents rumor and speculation as fact in terms of casting. Fails WP:NFF. Not even in Preproduction. WP:TOOSOON. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 14:17, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Obviously fails WP:NFF.  Would have preferred to see a speedy redirect though rather than having to wait for the AfD!  Not sure how good any of the information is - most of the citations are just links to rumours to stir up publicity for the second film. --Rob Sinden (talk) 10:19, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't know how to do a speedy redirect, either way better to make it official IMO so you have something to point to if someone decides to revert war over restoring the content. I assume since it clearly fails in every regard an admin could be asked to close early? Darkwarriorblake (talk) 05:02, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Incubate per TOOSOON. StanleyTAnderson (talk) 16:57, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to The Expendables 2 – Sequel per the notability guidelines for future films. A stand-alone article is warranted if filming begins as planned. Erik (talk &#124; contribs) 18:07, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
