Draft:Bagman (2024 film)

  • Comment: Insufficient sources needed to show notability. Bulk of the coverage is WP:ROUTINE announcements. Needs some more reviews or other similar sources (Such as opinion pieces, significant news coverage outside the scope of announcements, etc). As a comment to the nominator, the article needs a plot/synopsis section, and the description at the top should likely be removed, as I'm fairly certain that's a copyrighted synopsis of the film. Either way, I feel this has potential for improvement, so once the above has been addressed, feel free to resubmit this. Has one ever considered Magneton?

  • Comment: This has empty sections. I suggest either populating or removing them before resubmitting. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:55, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Unreleased films are hardly ever notable. Pre-release publicity does not establish notability. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:54, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
