[edit] Spring Breakdown

Spring Breakdown (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Contested prod. IMO, clearly violates WP:CRYSTAL, as the release date is well in the future and there is nothing apparently notable about the production — iridescenti (talk to me!) 18:21, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak delete Somehow I'm willing to allow the article as long as the "future" tag stays. It's just a gut feeling. That said, CRYSTAL technically applies. YechielMan 20:12, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep as there's enough general chatter about the film and the actors involved are well enough known to give it just enough leverage. Likely it'd be recreated within months anyhow. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:37, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. We are here to inform, not to ignore. If someone hears about the upcoming movie featuring one of their favorite actresses or something, then it would be nice if they could start off on good footing by finding out the basics here at the Wikipedia; and then making their way to IMDB or the movie's online website for more information. Thats what we do here. WP:CRYSTAL does not apply to us when we have a relatively reliable source like the IMDB describing an upcoming event. We are forbidden to "crystalball" without reliable sourcing and attribution (eg: Next Christmas, J K Rowling will give in to popular demand and write an 8th book called Harry Potter and the Birth of the Triplets, which according to some sources are said to look a lot more like Malfoy than Potter). Anyway, certainly the release date could change, and the thing could even be cancelled, postponed, or sent direct-to-DVD. Even so, the information posted is sourced (hopefully carefully avoiding plagiarism), and can be more thoroughly sourced in the future, and it will be updated (and probably repeatedly vandalized) as the release date approaches. If the movie isn't cancelled. --T-dot (Talk | contribs) 18:09, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
