Deconstructing the Myth of AIDS (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

This article is about a non-notable documentary that is not available on either the Internet Movie Database or on other movie websites. It's only reference is from the website about the documentary. OrangeMarlin ^{Talk• Contributions} 21:43, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

• Delete non-notable; promotional Tom Harrison ^Talk 21:52, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete I tried looking for sources, but only see blogs, discussion forums, etc. In other words, no reliable sources. --Aude (talk) 22:33, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Agree. Non-notable.Renee (talk) 22:34, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete: Fails WP:N and Wikipedia:Notability (films). Wikipedia has plenty of AIDS-denialism WP:COATRACKs - this one won't be missed. MastCell ^Talk 22:37, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Total of 190 Ghits for "Deconstructing the Myth of AIDS."[1] I looked at every one of them and there's not a single RS in the bunch. Raymond Arritt (talk) 23:00, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Not many results on Google. —  Wenli ^{(reply here)} 23:17, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete as a non-notable WP:FILM. Bfigura ^(talk) 00:04, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Although this has hundreds of hits on Google, many are either download or viewing sites, or passing comments. I found very little if any meaningful independent commentary and no film reviews at all (which is a hint nobody thought enough of it to write a review). This film has not been significantly noted as a documentary in any way. Gwen Gale (talk) 00:11, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete nn per above comments. KTC (talk) 00:38, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Weak keep notable writer and director, the film cannot be too non-notable. Chimeric Glider (talk) 01:59, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Notability isn't necessarily inherited that way. If the creators of the subject have their own articles, then this material should be included there. Independent of them, however, the film itself doesn't assert notability in any way whatsoever.

• Delete non-notable. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 04:40, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete No reliable sources that assert the notability of the subject. Even using general notability guidelines rather than the specialized FILM guidelines, it doesn't qualify for inclusion. Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 10:51, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete but should RS be found feel free to have another go. Nomen Nescio^{Gnothi seauton} 15:06, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. The lack of citations from reliable sources indicates to me that the article fails to comply with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 20:48, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
• Speedy delete - fails verifiability and notability very badly; basically spam. --Orange Mike | Talk 00:46, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per above. All relevant points have been made. Doctorfluffy (i put on my robe and wizard hat) 04:18, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Wikipedia occasionally performs a service by writing informative, neutral articles about wacky stuff. Unfortunately there isn't any coverage from mainstream sources about this film that pops up quickly on Google, and the creator of the article didn't supply any, so there is nothing for us to write from.
