Editing Guidelines |
Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:
- If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
- Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

Ok, so, to whoever it is that insists on the deletion of this article, I would really appreciate some clarification as to what it is about this entry that validates such an action. The only reason I've seen cited has been regarding the article's/subject's "notability". I cannot seem to find any criteria on Wikipedia which defines what seems certain subject matters more notable than others. I have verified the validity of all content contained in this entry, and, despite that the film may contain subject matter which may be generalized as "adult" in content, I made a deliberate effort to tune the focus and verbage of the entry in a tasteful and inoffensive manner. No subjectivity was incorporated into the synopsis of the film, and I made a specific effort to reflect the subject's redeeming cultural significance, as well as the relevance of this film to the overall canon of Herschell Gordon Lewis. I also performed multiple proofreadings to ensure no clerical or grammatical errors. So, this leaves then the issue of "notability", which yet remains a vague and undetermined concept outlined nowhere in the guidlines or policies I reviewed. Please take a moment to specify what you mean regarding "notability" and how it pertains to this entry, if for no other reason, to assist me in avoiding unneccessary efforts as such in future writings.
the AFD debate found it to be notable. article needs to follow wiki style guidelines though (i.e. try to follow the formatting and writing styles as seen in article The Creeping Terror). also remember to sign your comments. Zzzzz 22:02, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
