Syntax Error (film)

I can't find any reliable sources that show notability. Fails WP:NF. Schuym1 (talk) 23:10, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I created they article as part of the Disambiguation project. There are 3 incoming internal links to it from actors who appear. It's weird that we don't have an article for the director. -- Magioladitis (talk) 23:32, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- But the article isn't notable. Schuym1 (talk) 23:39, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - I don't an opinion about that. I am just stating some facts. We had three articles wrongly linking to syntax error. I think we best would be to have an article for the director and redirect the film there. -- Magioladitis (talk) 23:42, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don't know whether this film is notable or not, but I suspect it isn't and since it is a 13 minute short made six years ago, if it is not notable now, it never will be. In those circumstances, the correct solution to incoming links going to the wrong place is to unlink in the source article. Creating a non-notable article is not the right solution. Same goes for the director, if he is not notable, and his film credits are just four other even shorter shorts, then not a good idea to create an article for him.

- Accidents Happen is an upcoming long film (100 min) from the same director. Some times short film directors can be notable, of course I am not sure if this is such a case or not. -- Magioladitis (talk)
Weak delete and request WP:USERFY back to author. I have expanded and sourced the article since its nomination, but other than it being a 2004 Screen Music Award nominee, I can find nothing else that shows notability. Perhaps the author might find local sources showing festival submissions and other awards or reviews? Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 08:15, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I created the Andrew Lancaster article. I think we can redirect there at least. -- Magioladitis (talk) 13:31, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Magioladitis. Squidfryerchef (talk) 22:38, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
