Comment: IMDb is not a reliable source. Theroadislong (talk) 08:32, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Almost all of this is unsourced (the entire development, production history, plot sections), and of the sources that are there one seems to be primary and the other two are pretty routine coverage. LittlePuppers (talk) 19:31, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: You appear to have miss-understood how Wikipedia works, find reliable independent sources that discuss the subject in significant detail and then use those sources to write an article. Theroadislong (talk) 17:49, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: It's own website and a spam link to purchase a book are not independent sources and YouTube is not a reliable source. Theroadislong (talk) 17:34, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: See WP:REFB for help with formatting sources correctly and WP:NMUSIC for the criteria. Theroadislong (talk) 15:57, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
