USSR offered to join the Axis in WW2?[edit]

I saw a video^[1] where it mentions that the USSR offered to join the Axis, but "Hitler does not respond". Is this true? And, is there an article about this? --2603:6081:1C00:1187:34F8:9E17:94DC:E195 (talk) 16:24, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Grace Van Dien[edit]

If an article about Grace Van Dien can be created, is this reference [2] enough to go on?2603:7000:8100:F444:5CEB:32E2:99C:6FA2 (talk) 23:12, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No WP:IMDb is not a reliable source and even if it was WP:GNG requires significant coverage in secondary sources and not just a passing mention or database entry. While WP:NACTOR has some additional criteria you really should aim to establish GNG from the get go and in any case, at a minimum you will need a reliable source to establish the SNG is met.

I've seen IMDB in many places here, but strictly as an "external link", i.e. as "further reading" in articles in which proper notability has already been established. --←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 16:15, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
