Film Noir of the Week is written by film noir experts about film noir. The articles are written by published film noir writers. Some are college professors; and just about anyone that has done an audio commentary on noir DVDs have contributed to the website.

For example:

William Hare http://books.google.com/books?id=KAMpUVy8X94C&printsec=frontcover&dq=william+hare+film+noir http://books.google.com/books?id=ef1qRwXs4tUC&pg=PT1&dq=william+hare+film+noir

And has written articles on my web page for The Killers, Vertigo, and Hangover Square to name a few.

Eddie Muller http://books.google.com/books?id=iQwy1Ug_eQoC&printsec=frontcover&dq=eddie+muller+film+noir Has written an article on NOTW on The Big Heat

Andrew Spicer is a college professor and wrote a three part series on British Noir.

Ed Sikov has written a number of books on film noir and film including , On Sunset Boulevard: The Life and Times of Billy Wilder and Laughing Hysterically: American Screen Comedy of the 1950s. He wrote an article on Sunset Blvd on NOTW. He recently can be heard doing the audio commentary for the newly released Sunset Blvd. DVD.

The following were considered when posting an external link

For albums, movies, books, and other creative works, links to professional reviews. I feel that NOTW qualifies

Links to blogs and personal web pages, except those written by a recognized authority (this exception is meant to be very limited; as a minimum standard, recognized authorities always meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for biographies). I feel NOTW qualifies.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Noirish (talkcontribs) 20:45, 9 November 2008

The authors you mention look like they meet WP:SPS, but it's not clear that every review on noiroftheweek.com was written by them. The link you posted seems to be a blog entry cut-and-pasted from this forum, by a user called "Bogeyman". Is this user one of the aforementioned authors, and if so, can you point to anything that demonstrates this?
Is noiroftheweek.com directly associated with suddenlaunch3.com? Are you reusing the forum's reviews with explicit permission, or have they been released into the public domain? --McGeddon (talk) 21:04, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
