The article Talon (film) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable youtube film, absolutely no coverage
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. BOVINEBOY2008 12:43, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
[edit]Hello, Chakorperez. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 03:42, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
- Given the limited amount of coverage in any source that the movie has had, I'm inclined to believe that you're either the director of the film or someone involved in its production. There's nothing in the rules that say that you can't create and edit your own article, but it is discouraged. Part of it is because it's easy to see notability where there might be none (and to get too emotionally attached when it comes up for deletion or when people try to make edits), but also because it's very easy to see adding articles about yourself or your projects as self-promotion- especially if those make up most or all of your edits. I've recommended that this be userfied if you're interested, but I'd recommend getting someone from the film WikiProject to look over it to ensure that it passes notability guidelines before moving it back into the mainspace if it gets deleted.
