Nonsense of 24 Hours of Peace edit

 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on 24 Hours of Peace, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because 24 Hours of Peace provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting 24 Hours of Peace, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Different Sound edit

 

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Different Sound, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Nobody Knows needs to meet standards edit

Well put, torchpratt - I've included some article from NYT and LA Times that interview the director a bit and shed some light on the movie. It's an important piece of cinema work indeed. The crime story is so strikingly similar to one that occured last month in Osaka. However in that newer case, there have been many conflicts over whether that story is noteworthy from a Wikipedia standpoint even though is exploded in the headlines in Japan (newsworthy). I submit that there are a string of cases that are so similar as to be almost bizzarre, see the three abandoned children of Osaka and Rie Fujii which I attempted to rename the two abandoned children of Alberta. Also see Coin-operated-locker babies and baby hatch. Interesting stuff if a bit grim. Also I think that the original crime story should remain distinct from the movie unless it is clearly partitioned, but I've seen conflicts/protest over separating media from real events when trying to right up these cases.
