[edit] The getdown

The getdown (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Lots of name dropping but no real assertion of notability. Film not yet released. -- RHaworth 07:34, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Comment - This seems hoaxy, can someone check the imdb for any info concerning it, also it reads like a promo. - Caribbean~H.Q. 08:09, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Actually Delete a quick search on the imdb returns no results [1], the fact that it was created by a single purpouse account its mighty suspicious also, so if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck then its a duck a link to a single website doesn't convince me. - Caribbean~H.Q. 08:14, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per lack of sources....The site looks legit, but there's no other sources. IMDB does not even list this movie under Owen Wilson's credits Corpx 16:20, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
• I hope I can address your questions and concerns about my article. I created my Wikipedia account to place an article about this movie on Wikipedia, but I am not trying to promote the film. Please help me to better understand why I am being flagged and how I might improve the entry. I came across the movie during production and after corresponding with the producers, gathered a great deal of information I feel is of general public interest. It is a real movie in post-production with the listed celebrity appearances, verifiable by viewing the film’s trailer. The director already has another movie on Wikipedia, which is searchable on IMDB, as is the lead actor in the film. The Getdown is not yet listed on IMDB because it is in post-production and slated for release in the first quarter of 2008. All information about the film is true and accurate. I have personally seen Owen Wilson’s signed release for his appearance in the film. The project is unique in that it has so many such appearances, but comes from an independent production team working with a small budget. I feel strongly that the film is noteworthy and of interest to the general public, and that information about it legitimately belongs on Wikipedia. Please help me to improve the entry so this matter can be resolved favorably for everyone! Thanks very much. SylviaMeyers 19:27, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete due to lack of independent reliable sources so far. When the film starts to get mainstream media coverage and gets listed in IMDb, the article can be re-created at that time. --Metropolitan90 06:01, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
