Highly advertorialized article about a small film festival, not properly referenced as clearing WP:GNG or WP:ORGDEPTH. The referencing here is parked almost entirely on blogs and the festival's own primary source content about itself, which are not sources that can carry notability -- and the only two sources here that count as reliable ones at all are both in the same city's local media rather than evincing the wider coverage that an organization has to have to clear ORGDEPTH. In addition, there's a possible conflict of interest here, as about two weeks ago a newly-registered editor with no prior history named themself as "the new page moderator" who will be "monitoring" it from now on. But that's not how Wikipedia works: the article belongs to Wikipedia, not to the festival or to any individual editor who appoints themself as the "owner", and it has to follow Wikipedia's sourcing and content rules. There's simply not enough quality sourcing here, and far too much advertorialized text. Bearcat (talk) 03:14, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Bearcat spells it out; just would add that the self-appointed "moderator" should be warned on their talk page about why their conduct is inappropriate. Madg2011 (talk) 06:31, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - this is not notable at all. All the references mentioned therein and those I could find online via indepedent search do not render this notable at all. In addition, the editor who claims as moderator doesn't understand how wiki works let alone understanding what notability means. Xaxing (talk) 06:40, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
