Sam: Since everyone here is a volunteer, no one has time to e-mail you and hold your hand through this process. The problem is that this article does not meet the Wikipedia standard for inclusion found at this link about "future films", because there is no evidence that the film is actually in production. Evidence does not consist of you saying that it's in production -- what is required are arm's-length third-party expert opinion in verifiable sources. Once the film has completed production (preferably when it has actually been released), there is nothing stopping you from recreating an article about this topic, as long as it has reliable sources to verify the subject.

It's not a future film (though I know that isn't clear in the article as it stands now), and there are plenty of sources available:

There are many, many more sources available, and I will be happy to contribute to cleaning up the article (though right now I have to be away from the computer for a little while.) Add the sources to fact that all of the participants in the film are notable, and I think that there is enough evidence of notability here to be given some time to clean up and source the article. Is there enough here to delete the "prod" notice? Dawn Bard (talk) 21:18, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd certainly have no objection to the removal of the prod tag; as you may be aware, you don't need anyone's permission to remove that, and adding the references above to the article would go a long way towards meeting any possible objection. But the references and the proof that the film is past production need to be in the article and not on the talk page, or I suspect you may have to go through this again and again. Incidentally, "all of the participants in the film are notable" is not a guarantee that a film meets WP:NFF; many such film projects have been announced that were never completed. If there's anything I can do to help you further, let me know. Accounting4Taste:talk 21:33, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why WP:NFF applies - is it because the film is still just on the festival circuit and isn't in wide release yet? The film is finished. Dawn Bard (talk) 04:11, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
