New York Short Film Festival[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable film festival. There are several short film festivals based in New York (both the City and the State). This particular one does not appear to be notable. No reliable sources can be found that mention it. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 14:50, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:N. Most of the facts that are cited in the article reference IMDB, which doesn't show how this festival is notable. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 17:03, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete Not notable. This virtual film festival never took off, generating no mention that Ican find in a reliable source since the article was created in 2009. The parent group's web page (Ref 2) hasn't been updated since 2012. Even an ardent eventualist would likely admit that it is time for this article to be removed. It may someday deserve a short mention as an early try if virtual film festivals ever become popular and notable but it's not suitable for an article.
