[edit] The Man in the Movie

Listed as per Kevin Rector and Wile E. Heresiarch at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Phil Stone. This nomination does not necessarily reflect my vote. Uncle G 17:27, 2005 Jan 28 (UTC)

  • Delete. Sorry, but no. Wikipedia is here to reflect notability, and a film which isn't finished and has no evidence of a distributor is not suitable for a Wikipedia article. It's a sad fact of the domination of the majors that indie films have a hard job getting noticed, but we're not here to fix that. Good luck with the film, but Wikipedia is not a tool to promote it. If it gets a wide distribution or wins a prize at a major independent film festival, then I'll be happy to vote keep for an article. Average Earthman 18:05, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unfinished, non-notable film. Gamaliel 19:11, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Couldn't find it on IMDb, and even though being on IMDb does not equal noability, not being on is a sure sign of unnotability, if you're a movie or screen actor. -R. fiend 21:46, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Agree with Average Earthman and R. fiend. JoaoRicardo 22:09, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • KEEP! Disagree, it seems like a valid article. On Google "The Man in the Movie" gets 9,660 votes! Carr 00:06, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • However most of those hits having nothing to do with this movie. -R. fiend 01:14, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Come back when it wins an award at Sundance -- or, hell, when it's finished, even. --Calton 01:18, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - shameless promotion. Kevin Rector 14:43, Jan 31, 2005 (UTC)
