The result was snow close. We can't judge on this possibly getting picked up in the far future- we need to establish notability in the here and now. No prejudice against it being created when it releases and gets coverage, but it should not be created prior to it getting coverage in RS. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:32, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Lesser or Greater Extinctions

This article is about a YouTube "television" series being created by the article's editor and his stepfather. He has removed the CSD tag. This is not appropriate content for an encyclopedia: totally non-notable. PamD 07:49, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. "Upcoming" and "in the works" can hardly be notable. Promotional. --Dmol (talk) 07:58, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - It's Elijah and it's not for YouTube I'm not lying it is really for television in the far future. It's my creative idea for some TV channel and not for YouTube trust me Pamd it's not for online it's for TV and I always dreamed of doing this and now I want to share my TV creativity for the world so they know about my TV series to, please do not delete it and sorry about the bad texting to you yesterday.

Delete - Wikipedia is not a vehicle for promoting non-notable private projects. Stalwart111 12:41, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Looks like a pretty clear example of promotion to me. NickCT (talk) 13:25, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I agree that this article is premature and self-promotional. On the other hand, "don't bite the newbies" is a thought for the newbie here.--DThomsen8 (talk) 17:39, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Move? If the project discussed in the article should advance, there is some chance that it may someday be notable. Would it be appropriate to move the article into user space as a subpage, perhaps as a userspace draft, a user-specific draft, or as userspace notes? 50.181.30.121 (talk) 19:24, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I would imagine that might still breach WP:NOTWEBHOST. Is the any realistic prospect this will become notable in the future? Stalwart111 22:10, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The “time-to-notability” is clearly measured in years, not months. As for “likelihood-of-notability”, I have my own POV, but no professional qualifications whatsoever to support it. Would it do harm to the image or function of Wikipedia to let an enthusiastic new editor keep this in draft or sandbox status for a while? 50.181.30.121 (talk) 02:35, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
