Article about a possibly defunct film festival, not properly referenced as passing our notability criteria for film festivals. This is referenced entirely to deadlinked primary sources that are not support for notability at all (a tourist information guide and its own self-published website about itself) with absolutely no evidence of media coverage about it shown at all, but on a Google News search all I'm getting is a couple of irrelevant hits for a same-named film festival in Luton, England, while the American festival that's described here only turns up social networking hits and directory entries that aren't support for notability at all. I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access than I've got to archived Southwestern US news coverage that might not have Googled can find enough to salvage this -- but in the current form the sourcing doesn't cut it, and nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the sourcing from having to cut it.

- Delete: There do not appear to be significant sources that exist in order for this subject to meet the WP:GNG. I'm a local of the American Mountain West region (I've actually lived in three of the five states that this festivalal is supposed to be in) and the only coverage I could find was still not enough to pass WP:GNG. The only existing secondary coverage is trivial mentions. ––FormalDude talk 05:55, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - After searching I could not find much of anything about this specific film festival in the Southwest; it's unclear from the article if the festival was founded in 2009 or 2011. I did however find a long-running filmfest with the same name that is based in the UK, but I do not think there is any correlation between the two. Does not meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG. If citations can be found, or if it's part of a larger film constituency that is notable, I'm willing to rethink my !vote, but for now, it does not meet criteria for inclusion.

- Comment - I did find one in-depth news article about the festival in The State Press [1] and added it to the article. Netherzone (talk) 15:10, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: Within 9 minutes the above user copy-pasted either "keep as above" or "delete per nom" on 10 AFDs, clearly disruptive editing in my opinion. I think the comment should be disregarded. The user is welcome to return to make actual comments. Geschichte (talk) 08:09, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Fails each criteria for WP:NFF. First of all, there are no independent sources (every source is 99% chance promotional). Second of all. Second of all, there has been no publicity about the festival at all, with the exception of a single review. Koridas (Heyyyyyyy) 00:57, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
