Articles about a straight-to-DVD film and its maker, posted by SPA user {{user|Filmwalker}}, which I have blocked as an obvious role account for Makonnen's [http://www.filmwalker.com/ Filmwalker Productions]. I do not find enough independent reliable sources to suggest that the film meets WP:NF or that Makonnen meets WP:CREATIVE. (Searches for the film are confused by a book of the same name).

  • Delete, while the film exists, and has screened at festivals, neither the film nor the filmmaker[http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Dreams+and+Shadows%22,+%22Tamarat+Makonnen%22&hl=en&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&prmd=ivnso&ei=kpoaTY2NOIzAsAP_rLSwCg&start=10&sa=N] have coverage or awards that would allow either the film consideration under WP:NF, or the filmmaker under WP:BIO. Simply WP:TOOSOON... if ever. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:22, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
  • :Struck my delete in light of active work to address issues. I still feel it probably a bit too soon, but for now, I'm willing to give the editor the benefit of the doubt.... and heck... this article can always be revisited if not further improved. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 00:13, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep Could do with more than one reference in it, so if there are reliable ones add them now. I'm probably out on a limb here - but this might stir things up a bit. Peridon (talk) 18:25, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
  • Help Need help with removing Cite error in Reference section of article. Artlines478 (talk) 14:00, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
  • :I had a look at it before, and it looked like you'd pasted your name in instead of the ref. As I'm hopeless with refs myself, and didn't know what you were trying to add, I left it well alone... Peridon (talk) 22:34, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
  • ::Fixed it. Artlines478 was apparently tring to expand a quotation and wished a cite back to the source of the quote. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 00:05, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment Looking much better. Peridon (talk) 22:44, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
