[edit] Moosehead studios

I tried to PROD this article, in the belief that it failed WP:CORP uncontroversially and exhibited crystal ballism about the future prospects of the company. The PROD was removed. I'm listing it here in the belief that it fails WP:CORP uncontroversially and exhibits crystal-ballism about the future prospects of the company. - Politepunk 16:45, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per my nomination. - Politepunk 16:45, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep most of the articles facts are verifyable on the link given at the bottom. rather than deleting the entire article, the article should be edited so that the few facts that are unverifyable are no longer there.Barcode 17:44, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Comment please read Wikipedia's policy on verifiability, which requires independent, third party soures to verify information cited in articles. The Moosehead studios site does not count as an indepenedent source verifying an article about Moosehead studios, I'm afraid. Gwernol 18:04, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nomination. Clearly non-notable movie "studio". The linked page makes it clear that the article on Wikipedia is there for the purpose of driving traffic to their site: Wikipedia is not for advertising your venture. Gwernol 18:01, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Comment Purdue Exponent has an article on the studios for November 14, 2005. It is not online. is there a way i can still cite this article.Barcode 19:03, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Yes. But this studio is non-notable Delete--Eivindt@c 21:53, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Comment its in a local newspaper that reaches over 30,000 Purdue Students, not to mention faculty, and employees of the Purdue University so it has local notability.Barcode 23:39, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Getting a mention in a 19,000-circulation (not 30,000) student newspaper is not even close to major media coverage. --Calton | Talk 02:23, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nomination. Google search on "Moosehead Studios" brings up only *six* returns, four from Wikipedia. Their own website doesn't show up on Google yet. "Moosehead Films" brings up *no* returns at all. No films on IMDB. Textbook definition of non-notable. MikeWazowski 02:20, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete pr nomination, and for failing WP:CORP. --Calton | Talk 02:23, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
