The Glass Fortress (film)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable film, no independent coverage on the film itself, does not meet WP:NF BOVINEBOY 2008 22:24, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - "The Glass Fortress (film)" article        seems worthy to Keep since the film is related to "We (novel)" (a classic russian novel), "We (1982 film)" (a classic german film), "La Jetée" (a classic french photomontage film) and to "12 Monkeys" (a very popular classic american film by "Terry Gilliam") - hope this helps in some way - in any case - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 22:36, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Sources that are published by the creator of the film, social media posts, non-professional reviews, and articles that only briefly mention this film do not establish its notability. See WP:NF. BOVINEBOY 2008 16:09, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - Film does not have enough sources to be required to be an article. RavenLord64 (talk) 22:24, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Seems there's sufficient reference sources presented (see listing above) for The Glass Fortress (film) article - perhaps more than many other articles that are not WP:AfD - for examples, see => This Category? - particular examples are Martian Land with zero references? and Second Origin with only one reference? - there may be many more - in any case - see listing of relevant reference sources above for The Glass Fortress (film) article - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 01:40, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - Most sources don't look independent/reliable (WP:NFSOURCES), and the notable works that it draws from don't make it notable (WP:NOTINHERITED). Jigj (talk) 07:14, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge into We (novel). I can't improve on the sources listed above, which I'm afraid aren't enough to establish notability. The first two are unpublished (afaik) reviews uploaded by the director, then a wiki, a blog post, this, which might be something, then two pages by the instrumentalist, then a Facebook page. 16 Google hits total for the French title in quotes, none helpful. In all, these aren't reliable and independent enough to sustain an article. The article is also dedicated solely to the 28-minute film, whereas the sources, such as they are, are mostly about the earlier 60-minute concept album by the same team. The mention at We (novel) should be clarified to distinguish those from one another and add a few of the core details from this article (black and white, freeze frame similarity to La Jetée). If other articles have even less discoverable references, you're welcome to start AfD discussions about them. › Mortee  talk 01:17, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete the sources given do not sufficiently establish notability as they're press releases or unreliable sites. The director and film title together garner only 51 results, proving a lack of substantial sourcing. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 23:46, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
