The plot summary is a close paraphrase of this). Please either write original material or get approval from a copyvio expert (like Moonriddengirl) to use the material. Slightly less urgently, you really need to find real sources that establish the subject's notability. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 00:28, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
- Is this hook meant for use on MainPage on April 6th, Gianna Jessen's birthday? --PFHLai (talk) 03:44, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
- You're good, but no. The movie release on March 23 would be ideal. – Lionel (talk) 05:29, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
- Ideal? That would give DYK the appearance of using Wikipedia's MainPage as advertising space for this new movie. Please don't. --PFHLai (talk) 17:47, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
OK, maybe I wasn't clear about this before, but please find reliable sources that establish the subject's notability, and remove the unreliable sources. An article so poorly sourced is not suitable for the main page. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 20:53, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
- It is notable. Human Events, Catholic News, Townhall, Christian Post among others establish notability. My past experience with you shows me that you have a penchant for marginalizing conservative and Christian sources: whether you like it or not, conservative and Christian sources are reliable. If you don't like these sources take them to RSN. Until then there is no reason to block this DYK. – Lionel (talk) 21:38, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
- Update: in addition to the high quality and reliable conservative and Christian sources, the LA Times and Chicago Sun have been added. – Lionel (talk) 23:27, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
The Ebert and LA Times sources establish borderline notability. Looks good to go as long as you don't add back any more copyvio. Don't whine about other users calling you out on your poor sourcing; instead, find reliable sources like Ebert and the LA Times. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 14:40, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
