:({{Find sources AFD|title=Purple Gas}})

Article about a film with no reliably sourced claim to passing WP:NFILM. The notability claim here is that it exists, and the only "sources" present are IMDb and its own self-published production website about itself -- but proving that the film exists is not sufficient in and of itself to secure inclusion in Wikipedia, and instead we require indicators such as notable film awards or reviews by critics in major media. On a search for better sourcing, however, the only solid sources I can find are one blurby and unbylined review in Film Threat and a single article in the director's hometown newspaper on the occasion of its local premiere, which isn't enough to get it over the bar (not least because even from those two sources combined I still can't cobble together a functional description of what the film is about) — otherwise, all I get is glancing namechecks of its existence in later coverage of the director or the cast members, which doesn't help at all.

  • Delete, a search found nothing to indicate that Bearcat's extensive source analysis is incorrect. Devonian Wombat (talk) 11:56, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
  • Delete - the Film Threat brief review is the closest this seems to get to being notable and it isn't enough on its own Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:58, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
