Trooper Clerks
Fails WP:WEB. No external press coverage that I found. The official website has an Alexa ranking in the 1,600,000 range. Crystallina 04:42, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Minimal merge to the Clerks movie article as an example of Clerks being referenced in pop culture. I love Trooper Clerks, but it isn't notable enough for an article. Erechtheus 04:48, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per previous deletion discussion here. 10,000 google hits (359 unique). Irongargoyle 16:02, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: The film in the previous discussion was shown at the Cannes Film Festival and makes other claims to notability that this does not. Crystallina 20:19, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment One of them was at Cannes. The others weren't and some got fewer hits, but all were kept. Irongargoyle 20:46, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I didn't see the others nominated. My point still stands upon seeing them. All of them received media coverage. (One was at the Toronto Film Festival.) However, the article in this AfD does not claim to have received any media coverage; that is why it is different than the above examples, and why it fails WP:WEB as well as WP:RS.

 * Keep. Very notable webfilm. I think this even got some coverage on CNN but I can't find the link. 23skidoo 23:53, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment NewsAskew covered Trooper Clerks pretty well. Here is a list of their mentions. I don't think there is anything there to augment notability, but I'm willing to reconsider my merge recommendation if anyone finds something. Erechtheus 00:52, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete no evidence of notanility or non-trivial media coverage.--Peta 05:58, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into the Clerks article (list under Trivia, perhaps) --Rglovejoy 06:04, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
