The result was   speedy keep. The sources Metropolitan90 found and added to the article show the nomination was based on a faulty assumption, speedy closing. Mgm|(talk) 09:14, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

The Gospel

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable film; no evidence of any critical or media attention (unsourced too, but that's not a criterion for deletion except to the extent it's a WP:V violation). Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  23:55, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Released widely by a major distributor (Columbia-TriStar) which establishes notability, along with the fact it has numerous notables in the cast. WP:V implies the article is a hoax in which case the onus is on the nominator to prove this film does not exist. Needs expansion and sourcing, but I don't see a problem. 23skidoo (talk) 03:37, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. There is no question about this film's verifiability; it was reviewed by multiple major newspapers at the time of its release. For example: Boston Globe, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle. It finished 5th at the North American box office in its first weekend. Eventually it grossed over $15 million.   I am not sure why it was necessary to nominate this article for deletion given the easy availability of sources. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:48, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per WP:BEFORE, is notable and sourcable. Situation for WP:CLEANUP, not deletion.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 03:57, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
