X-Men 4


Article for a film that has never been announced. It isn't encyclopedia just to have internet chatter about the possibility of this happening many years in the future. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. IrishGuy talk 19:18, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Fox apparently confirmed this, but there still needs to be a better source for this than a blog.  Michaelas10   (Talk)   19:28, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * That blog doesn't actually confirm it. It even states: ...Fox Head Tom Rothman has all but confirmed... which pretty much says he didn't confirm it. IrishGuy talk 19:49, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Too many articles get created on movies with nothing more than an unconfirmed or semi-confirmed report (blogs are not Reliable Sources) that the movie will be made. Then they get filled with totally unsourced chaff from the rumor mills about plot, cast, director, etc. Wait until there is substantial verifiable information. Fan-1967 19:40, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per above. Nat91 23:55, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete crystal balling with no reliable source. If the blog cites Fox, then there should be a way for us to verify the source.B.Wind 01:43, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Unsourced. And crystal balling as even if true it does not mean the ultimate plot of the film (if it is made) will be that in the article. WJBscribe 01:48, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep This article documents the current progress this project is at. It is not trying to be a crystal ball, rather it shows the development of the initial script much like what is done on the existing article for "Superman Lives". Should X-Men 4 never be made, it is still interesting to see the facts concerning development and/or why the movie was never made. Synsukker 21:56 1 December 2006
 * The difference is that Superman Lives has officially been declared by the studio. This hasn't. IrishGuy talk 05:37, 2 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete unsourced and unverifiable original research that, for all we know, is fanfic. Recreate only when, and if, the studio announces such a movie.-- danntm T C 19:24, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above. –– 30sman 21:39, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
