In attempting to arrive at consensus, I ask that the closing admin take into account that this AfD was removed from the Film deletion sorting page for several days by a suspected sock of the article creator and/or COI subject. Please allow sufficient time for discussion before closing. thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:53, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Deletion requested by author per Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kaienhakuto, see [1]. I thus tagged the article with {{db-author}} per G7 JoeSperrazza (talk) 02:54, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for doing so, Joe. Yes, when confronted with the facts, the sock sort of owned up. Though he still had the gall to deny he'd done anything wrong, when the diffs provided at his SPI show a history of deceptive editing, rather pathetically trying to hide his tracks by calling his AfD removal and maintenance tag blanking "bug fixes." Some bug; some fix. These multiple accounts were created for a reason, and that reason was to WP:OWN the article and block its deletion, period.

Close AFD as rendered moot due to it already being deleted. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 22:20, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Note I did find the deleted article in a google cache.[2] And while 8 minute independent documentaries are rarely able to show Wikipedia notability, I will note with sadness that the puppets only hurt themselves, as a very decent review by Film Threat[3] just popped up on the radar. And if more such pop up, this article, might well merit an article in the near future. So puppets, please take heed and stay away. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 07:09, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
