Article Incubator/A Chapter of Men


I'm nominating this for deletion because there are no RS out there to show that this film will pass notability guidelines at any time in the future. I did a search and nothing came up. Considering that this was to have been released in March, there's been no hint or whisper of any sourcing to show notability. The sources on the article consist of articles that do not cover this particular film at all or even mention it, IMDb, and primary sources. I just don't see this becoming notable any time soon, so I'm listing it here.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 07:46, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Userfy this back to its author, with an explanation that he/she continue work on it in preparing it for a return to mainspace. Userfied as a work-in-progress, no work "needs" to show article space notability... immediately or even in the near future... just so long as the author believes that he/she might be able to show notability before a return to artiocle space. If he/she wishes advice and guidence, I am willing to provide such.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 18:29, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I have zero problem with this being userfied. I didn't know that this was an option since it'd been incubated, to be honest.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 18:32, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Options abound. :) Incubated upon an expectation of March release was reasonable, just as is/was userfictaion under WP:NYF when possible notability seems more future distant. The "festival" in which this was submitted was one of those online youtube things... and apparently neither it nor the festival received suitable notice. In supposing it might eventually be worthy of article space, I figure that allowing it to be worked on out of mainspace accomplishes several things in his contributor education... the more important of which is that the author may learn just what is expected of a film topic to merit being in mainspace.

 * Delete, gently per WP:SNOW (yes I'm using it correctly, everyone else doesn't).  I think we'll just be increasing the eventual sting by letting the user continue to waste time on something that doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of making it in mainspace.  So the dilemma is biting them now or biting them more later after they have put more work into it.  I say we just delete it now and let them know it was a good attempt, but just not anywhere close to our notability standards. Gigs (talk) 23:47, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
