The Man Who Laughs (Stage Play)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Un-notable play that hasn't opened. Doesn't pass WP:N. The article creator is the playwright. I cannot find any coverage in reliable sources and the google hits seem to be just about audition calls. Clubmarx (talk) 23:55, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, a play that hasn't even opened, no reason to think it's notable. Hairhorn (talk) 23:56, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Provisional delete unless the author can demonstrate coverage in reliable sources. "Hasn't even opened" isn't a deletion reason, if it can be demonstrated that it's receiving significant pre-publicity, but I can't see any evidence of it at the moment. – iride  scent  00:03, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
 * .. exactly why I said "no reason to think it's notable" in addition to "hasn't even opened". Hairhorn (talk) 00:08, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
 * No Deletion Excuse me, but as the author of the article, I have clearly written in the "Talk" page for this article that more information is coming. A little patience would be greatly appreciated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheaterRaven (talk • contribs) 00:27, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, if Desired I have found a more appropriate web host for promoting the play. Therefore, delete the page, since you all seem to be in agreement it does not meet Wikipedia's high criteria. Thank you for your time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheaterRaven (talk • contribs) 01:56, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia isn't a webhost, that's why the entry was nominated for deletion in the first place. Hairhorn (talk) 04:15, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I know, which is why I have found another web host to promote my work. Like I said before, delete the page if you want. The other source I have found better suits the needs of both our parties involved. TheaterRaven (talk) 07:12, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
