Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scary Movie 5

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was delete. While it has two "references", that is a far cry from being in pre-production. Mention of such a tentative movie belongs on the Scary Movie or the Scary Movie 4 page, but there is just not enough content or confirmation yet for a separate page to to escape the wrath of WP:NOT.

[edit] Scary Movie 5

Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Nothing on the IMDb. Kilo-Lima|^(talk) 16:12, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as speculation, WP:NOT--Zxcvbnm 16:40, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I watched that episode of Dr. Phil, and Zucker said there would be a Scary Movie 5. That's not speculation. Mshake3 17:39, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Too early to make an article for Scary Movie 5--hottie 19:12, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:NOT. SorryGuy 00:04, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep The movie is confirmed. It deserves a page, even if it just says "Scary Movie 5 will come out in a couple years." Mshake3 02:41, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
• 'Keep Zucker is working on it. The cast have contracts for 5 and 6 and possibly 7. (Alphaboi867 13:14, 17 April 2006 (UTC))
• Delete - when it has an IMDb page, I'll believe its definitely happening. Until then, it's just another movie in early development which could still collapse, despite the best intentions of those involved. There are thousands of such movies being worked on at any one time, and Wikipedia doesn't need articles on any of them. Alternatively, this could be redirected to either Scary Movie or Scary Movie 4 (see also Hulk 2 and Terminator 4). — sjorford (talk) 18:01, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
  • So you'll take IMDB's word over the director's own word? Mshake3 04:04, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Zucker says he wants to make the movie. Weinstein says he wants to make the movie. That's fine, but nevertheless, it hasn't actually been started yet. I'm not treating IMDb as the decision-makers, but it's a good indication that a project has started active pre-production, which SM5 hasn't. And until it actually gets started, it could very easily fall by the wayside and never happen. — sjorford (talk) 08:08, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep - According to the article, Weinstein has confirmed that the movie will be made, that sounds official enough to me. Mad Jack O'Lantern 20:11, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - Not only will the day imdb be up to date be the day that I run for President if all have confirmed there is no reason why there shouldn't be a page (Pally01 15:06, 19 April 2006 (UTC))
