The Papal Chase

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

A search for reliable, secondary sources reveals an insufficient amount of significant coverage. This article fails Wikipedia's notability guidelines for films. Neelix (talk) 10:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Merge to Kenny Hotz (director/producer/star). Neither Rotten Tomatoes nor IMDb nor TCM.com list any reviews.  There's a brief mention that it won the Brooklyn Film Fest Audience Award for best Documentary in IndieWire, a paragraph in Maclean's, a bit in a student paper story, and some non-independent sources. But not enough in-depth coverage in reliable independent publications. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:47, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment for what I can see, GNG considerations aside, "if" these awards are verifiable this film would pass WP:NFILMS. Cavarrone (talk) 20:00, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY, in accordance with my comment above. Schmidt's excellent work have already improved the article enough to proof it passes WP:NFILMS (the film has received a major award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking), as this film was awarded as best documentary/best film in three notable film festivals, and this is verifible through reliable sources. Yes, the page still needs additional work, but the notability of the subject appears now proven. Cavarrone (talk) 04:37, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets WP:NFILMS, a SNG set to deal with situations where GNG might be weak. The two guidleines are not at odds, as they are set to aid in determining whether or not a topic is worthy enough of note to be written of herein. Simple enough way to deal with such: Not enough SIGCOV? Then check the applicable SNG.  Verifiable as meeting an applicbale SNG?  Then we have enough notability for inclusion even in the lack of SIGCOV.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 22:46, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
