Delete Non-encyclopedic. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 14:19, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I have simply started a page. It will be completed soon, and will be a complete encyclopedia of Smasher Films history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smasherfilms (talk • contribs) 14:21, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Merge Actually, maybe merge this with Universal Studios. We are a similar company, who both put out good films, so I would be relatively happy for the merge to happen, even if we are a better company. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smasherfilms (talk • contribs) 14:21, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Speedy Delete - Google search reveals only one 49 second "film" on YouTube, an alleged trailer for a movie that doesn't exist. No mention at all of this "established" film company on imdb.com.-Hal Raglan (talk) 15:08, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Merge - the film will be completed shortly, and we don't have an imdb page yet. We currently have around 20 films which are released on DVD (Debt and Dead, Live Another Day...I hope), so we are quite established. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smasherfilms (talk • contribs) 15:24, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy Delete. Let's see if we can get yet another "merge" vote from Smasherfilms. Prove how you are established, and I will reconsider. Telling us that something "will be completed shortly" is most certainly not grounds for a Wiki article. I need to see that your films and/or company were reviewed or covered in multiple significant, reliable third sources. Tanthalas39 (talk) 16:25, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
    • Agreed. Why should the article be merged into Universal Studios? What association does the company have with Universal? Do they distribute the films? What does the "...I hope" comment mean after the films listed? Does Smasher Films actually have titles released on DVD or not? Why does a Google search show nothing at all for the two titles mentioned? Can links be provided to reliable sources that have reviewed any of the films? The simple fact is that the article, as it stands now, shows no notability, or even existence, of the subject film company. If the article can be expanded, it should be done now.- Hal Raglan (talk) 16:35, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete no meaningful content. If you really want an article for this, wait for it to come out and then make an article, not a "comming soon" page. Thinboy00 @804, i.e. 18:17, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
