UnSettled: Inside The Strange World of Asbestos Lawsuits

There are some mentions found on News, and while 2 are more than trivial, they don't rise to the level of passing WP:GNG. And the documentary clearly doesn't pass WP:NFILM.  Onel 5969  TT me 11:48, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. There just isn't enough out there to show that this movie passes notability guidelines. It exists and can be watched, but there's very little out there about it. The Buzzfeed article was actually submitted by one of their random users, so that would be considered a WP:SPS at best since Buzzfeed doesn't factcheck its user submissions like they do the posts written by their staff. The only thing that I could find that was halfway usable was the Legal NewsLine piece that's already in the article. Everything else is either a press release reprint or a WP:TRIVIAL mention. If someone wants to userfy this they can, but it just doesn't pass NFILM right now. To be honest, it might never pass - documentary films like this are kind of niche and they tend to either make it big ala Tickled or SuperSize Me or they don't.

 * I've worked a fair bit in the documentary film area and in fairness there is a large middle ground between big hits and insignificant films: this just doesn't seem to have made it into that large mid-range, even. Delete Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:12, 6 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per Tokyogirl79. --David Tornheim (talk) 19:33, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
