There is nothing but a cast listing here, and the entire page is only supported by one single source. Grapesoda22 (✉) 20:26, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Obvious keep. Regardless of the current sourcing, the film meets WP:NFILM. #1 to be exact, as the film was widely distributed and has received full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics, which a simple WP:BEFORE would have shown.

Here are some refs MPN, MPN - showing it as a major release, Variety, Variety review, MPM, summary review, Photoplay review. Might I suggest the nominator withdraw? Onel5969 ^{TT me} 21:28, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - meets WP:NFILM neither item mentioned by the nom is a reason for deletion. MarnetteD|Talk 21:43, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - and might I suggest that this (and another AfD nom by this editor) might be a bit of a bad faith nomination in retaliation for my nominating three articles for deletion for which they disagree with? Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Meatwad (2nd nomination), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carl Brutananadilewski (2nd nomination), and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frylock (2nd nomination), all of which had gone through AfD prior and been resolved as redirects. Their history doesn't show a tremendous interest in old silent American films. Just saying.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 21:47, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
