  • Delete per WP:NFF. Too bad these can't be speedily deleted. --Bejnar (talk) 02:37, 17 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Userfy. This is a little teensy bit too soon, but this is the sort of thing that should absolutely be userfied. I fully volunteer to userfy this if User:Cassidyschap doesn't respond to the AfD. (I'm worried that since he hasn't edited since March, that he wouldn't edit it at all and has abandoned the account.) This does come somewhat close to NFF, but primary filming hasn't begun and as such doesn't really merit an article at this point in time. Normally I'd just suggest redirecting with history to the director's page, but Steven DeGennaro doesn't have an article at this point in time. I don't know that redirecting it to the producer is really a good alternative since normally we redirect to the directors, but it could work. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:04, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm also slightly worried that there's a bit of COI here with the original editor, although I have nothing to substantiate that. Although I do want to say that it looks like filming has yet to actually begin. Everything I'm finding shows that it's in pre-production and filming won't begin for a few more weeks.

  • The only problem is that press releases are seen as WP:PRIMARY sources regardless of where they're posted. At most they could be seen as trivial since most of the time the news outlets just put a small paragraph of prose at the top and leave the rest as is. Sometimes they re-write the PR in their own words, but most of the time the press release isn't really usable and we'd need some sort of other coverage to really pass notability guidelines. Even once filming has begun, we still have to show that the filming coverage has been in-depth, which means that the coverage doesn't rely mostly on press releases. It's a bit tough to accomplish, to say the least, and lately people have been more strict over this sort of thing. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:37, 21 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The director has just had two more interviews, one with Dread Central, so this we're very confident that this will meet notability criteria very soon. In the meantime, I request that we close this AfD so I can userfy the article until a time at which it is appropriate for the article space. Cassidyschap (talk) 17:47, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
