[edit] Electric Blue 28

Previously voted on VfD in 2004. Since then, the article hasn't evolved much and it isn't notable, other than the fact that porn actress Traci Lords had her scenes removed after she was found to have been under-age. Joe Beaudoin Jr. ^{Think out loud} 19:36, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

• I guess I'll be the first to stab at a controversal issue. First off, the original nomination was more focued on morality and "unnatural love." This article really has more to deal with notability. And when I review the article itself, it could be condensed. I honestly believe that this article is a keep. Having notability from an actress that meets WP:Bio, should be enough to keep an article afloat. I'm going to borrow some text from WP:Music and use it in this context, "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable." Being involved with an actress that is notable, and under those circumstances should keep this article afloat. Yanksox 06:20, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, the Traci Lords controversy was notable... and it pushes this back into the keep column, along with its IMDB entry. The reason for the original VFD nom (from the link supplied by the nominator) was bogus since morality has nothing to do with it as far as I'm concerned. Although... this keep vote shouldn't be take as any kind of support for articles on porncruft like Electric Blue 1-27 and 29-X. - Motor (talk) 10:10, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, merge what little content in Traci Lords. Not a notable or much-noticed Lords movie. New Wave Hookers, on the other hand... -- GWO
• Delete per GWO/Gareth Owen. Traci Lords made "somewhere between 80 and 100 X-rated movies between 1984 and 1986" we can't have an article for every one of them. We probably do want to have an article for some (she was one of the top stars of her time, even besides the scandal), but I see nothing about this particular movie that makes it stand out. I am also highly wary of saying that #28 in a series is particularly notable. AnonEMouse ^(squeak) 14:36, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. I don't think every porn movie ever made deserves an article, even with notable cast members. There is nothing too special about this one and I don't see why it should be kept. Grandmasterka 05:41, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
