• Keep It falls under a similar category of The Loney Island and while may not be as popular is still in the same category. (66.170.194.88 00:54, 18 February 2006 (UTC))
• Strong Keep The new changes made to the site verify it's authenticity and make for a solid page. (66.170.194.88 00:54, 18 February 2006 (UTC))
• Keep If they actually make movies for free distribution, it should be kept up. And in reviewing their videos linked to their wikipedia site, it should remain.(66.170.194.88 00:54, 18 February 2006 (UTC))

Overwhelmingly mighty mondo-keep: Do you see that this is something being taken seriously? That this is an attempt at a career? Now I don't particularly like N*SYNC. I don't think those fellas are particularly talented and I'm far from interested in anything they do, but it's important to somebody. Dismissing this because you don't like it, don't understand it, or don't think it deserves popularity would be like opting for the deletion of N*SYNC's Wiki. The page seems dumb to me, but I know it's important to someone else, and it may help someone find the information they desire. If you oppose this page on the grounds that AtR is unpopular, keep in mind that creating a Wikipedia listing is a way of generating popularity and spreading knowledge of the existence of something. By the way, this is not, as banned by Wikipedia, a fad from a school or an inside joke. It is a film company, albeit a low-budget, unknown, modest one, that happened to be formed by school chums. If you are at all familiar with entertainment groups, you will know that many began as an idea begun between school friends that eventually took off. I'm not saying that Across the Road will ever be a well-known success, but humble beginnings, even without definite endings, are no reason for deletion. Is it really that big of a problem for you that someone wants a bit of recognition? I see no harm being caused, and vote overwhelmingly for a mondo-keep. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tougi (talk • contribs)

• Wikipedia articles are not vehicles for creating notability - we write about things that already are notable. See Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Sorry - please don't take this personally. CDC (talk) 01:09, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
