Writing on the Wall Movie

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Blatant crystal-balling; movie is part of a trilogy that is "initiating in 2015". Google produces 0 hits for the full name of the movie, "Writing on the Wall: The Curse of the Dead Locket", and for "Writing on the Wall" "Johnny Depp" "Madison Mott" (alleged star and director, respectively). No IMDB link provided, even. The writing on the wall is clear for stuff like this: delete. Awyong J. M. Salleh 03:46, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as hoax. Hollywood doesn't plan things that far in advance, and even if they did the movie as described sounds silly and unlikely.  I wouldn't be surprised if this was thought up by some kids as a fantasy about being in a movie with actors they like.  In any case, delete.

 * Delete. This is probably someone's script outline at this point. Even LOTR or Star Wars didn't get article 8 years in advance. Natalie 04:25, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Mind you, was Wikipedia active 8 years ago? -- saberwyn 04:45, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You're right, that should have been in the subjunctive tense. Natalie 06:22, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete As per nom - although I would like to get the author of the article's crystal ball. --Ozgod 06:02, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Hoax / crystal ballery. Maxamegalon2000 06:19, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep I think that this might be relevant information. Just see what the authors might write up in the future; you never know, it might be very true. Ozzietheoct Ozzietheoct 18:44, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep/Delete: both sides to this problem. Agreement with person above. The authors specify that this was a rough outline/plot on Awyong Jeffrey's site. Well anyway, even if it does get deleted, Jeff has a point: if it's out in 2015, why not publish in 2013? That would be better for them, right? But they also said, on his page, that they didn't have a site yet! Professional work questioned... Bobbypirate12318:52, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * For anyone better at probabilities than me, could you work out the chances of two new independent accounts showing up within 5 minutes of each other, both posting on this particular AfD, and both signing their posts twice? No wonder I can never find a matching set of cotton footwear.  Oh, and Delete per nom.  Totally excessive Crystal-Balling.  Eliminator JR   Talk  19:20, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Simple. What if the people above you copied the same signature and worked out a different name? Honestly, they're probably newbies right? 5 minutes...well...I'm just posting on this and then something else: what if someone just posted two seconds ago or something? And what does Delete per nom mean? Sorry, I'm a half-newbie, too! Gargoyle123 23:14, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * "Per Nom" = "For the same reasons given by the nominator".  Eliminator JR  Talk  00:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per above. Nomen Nescio Gnothi seauton 18:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete Lacks sources, there's nothing to prove that this actually exists. -- hibou 19:54, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as unsourced crystalballism.-- danntm T C 21:15, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete if the person or people involved actually prove in future that it exists then they should create one. Unsourced. Gargoyle12322:46, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete Absolutely no evidence or sources. I suspect the "new" actresses are probably the authors of this hoax. And for good measure, WP:NOT is an excellent policy reason to delete.  Pig manTalk to me 01:22, 1 March 2007 (UTC)


 * DELETE* I had conversation with a writer that works alongside Terry Rossio, alleged to be writer for this movie. The writer assured me that no such movie is planned, and would not be planned so far in advance.  Such projects are released via 2 different means in Hollywood, and not EVER via Wikipedia.  Remove now, this abomination, as it is part of a myspace hoax. Gmorrison927 01:42, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * DELETEHow do you know someone who works with Terry Rossio? Not that I doubt you, just curious. That sounds very interesting. I agree that it is probably a MySpace hoax, but it is probably a good idea to delete off of Wikipedia. Too much crystal-balling. Just my thoughts....sorry if it's long.

 * Delete - Looks to be a hoax and even if it isn't Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. A1octopus 19:57, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - I wish "blatant hoax" were a WP:CSD. - ElbridgeGerry t c block 00:39, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
