MKlein1228, you are invited to the Teahouse
editHi MKlein1228! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
The article Romeo is Bleeding (documentary) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable film, coverage is purely about funding, not about actual film project
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. BOVINEBOY2008 01:16, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Why?
editI am new to the contributing/editing side of Wikipedia, so I'm not sure if this is the correct way to respond or ask questions. Please excuse me while I'm learning.
BOVINEBOY why do you want the Romeo is Bleeding (documentary) page deleted?
- The biggest issues with the page has to do with establishing that the film passes WP:NFF and the tone, which was initially fairly promotional. I have a feeling that you are personally connected with the movie in some aspect, either because you are a crew member or because you know someone that's in it. Please don't take that badly- I'm mostly saying this because it's very, very easy to get caught up in something and take an AfD nomination more personally when editing with a WP:COI. (I'll post more about this in a bit and give you the official post we give out about that.) So far the biggest issue seems to be a general lack of coverage in reliable sources (WP:RS). There is some coverage, enough to where I'll likely recommend it getting moved to draftspace, but not really enough to show that the film has received enough coverage to pass notability guidelines for unreleased films. That it has been picked up by various different groups shows that the film has promise, but most of the coverage for that is either WP:PRIMARY (meaning that the coverage for it was released by people involved with the project) or WP:TRIVIAL (meaning that it got a passing mention in a larger article as a whole). I added a link to the DJN, but I'm somewhat hesitant about whether or not it'd be seen as usable overall since it's listed under the blog section. Blogs are generally considered to be WP:SPS (self-published sources), which means that it likely had little to no editorial oversight, meaning that we can't really use it to show notability. It's really notability that we're looking for. Nobody is doubting that the documentary is in progress, but we just don't have the coverage to show that it passes our admittedly strict guidelines.

- I figure if you have any questions, feel free to ask away on my userpage. I'll be honest- I'm fairly certain that this will end up getting sent to the userspace, either yours or mine. The bad thing is that it will not be in the mainspace. However the positive aspect of this is that it will be in the userspace, so we'll have more time to polish the article and add sources until it passes notability guidelines for films.

Conflict of interest
editHello, MKlein1228. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 23:35, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Blanking
editPlease don't blank sourced content, as you did in this edit. This is sourced to Variety Insight, a database operated by the trade magazine Variety. This trumps your own personal analysis based on "PR sources", which would generally not be considered reliable in the first place. Per this consensus, production companies need to be sourced to prevent just this kind of original research based on press releases and posters. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:25, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
