This article is a technical description and has nothing more to add. hence, it belongs more to Wiktionary Wikishagnik (talk) 19:31, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

''Albeit I am biased, being that I wrote the article, but I believe as a reference for someone researching film projection this is important. I always view Wikipedia as a reference and when I couldn't find anything on VPF, I felt it worth creating an article for reference. Encyclopedia Reference

''The article is a bit of a stub and could use some more work, but I'm not sure it should be deleted. Maybe it should be absorbed into the Digital Cinema page if it can't function as a standalone?

''I'm not quite clear why you find this a "technical description" could you please clarify what about the article makes it a technical description and less of an encyclopedia entry? I would be happy to change the aspects that make it seem like a technical description! Wikitionary v. Wikipedia'' AzryckAnin (talk) 00:20, 5 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment I think this is a subject about which we could and should have an article, but a Wikipedia article does need references providing substantial coverage from  3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. An faq on a company web site is not really what we're looking for--even when their purpose is to define terms in their business field. Articles in technical magazines or journals, or material in standard textbooks,makes the best sources.     DGG ( talk ) 02:10, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment Thanks DGG! That's helpful, I made some edits and added some additional citations from The New York Times and Professor David Bordwell, who is an author of numerous textbooks on film. It is difficult to find textbooks on the subject matter as they are currently being written (and if I am not incorrect, David Bordwell may very well turn his current blog into a textbook on digital projection). However I hope that these additional citations help to add a bit of credibility and verifiability to the entry?  AzryckAnin (talk) 17:55, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep - according to Google books, the topic has been published fairly well. Seems more than a dictionary definition. Regards,    A rbitrarily 0    ( talk ) 16:16, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
