Disputing Speedy Deletion

edit

Hey, I'm disputing the speedy deletion of this article. Besides the fact that there are links to an article in Cineaste (a major publication) plus the one in Film in Focus and the transcript of the Film Comments panel with GC Daily's editor present, this is a major site. I just started the article, but I'm not sure how it fits speedy deletion criteria. --Granddukesfinances (talk) 01:49, 20 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Further: I'd recommend Googling the subject and reading the references (there are four for the statement that qualifies the site's importance: "...is seen as one of the centers of the online film community"). I thought that since we have an article about Girish Shambu (also indisputably one of the sites English-language film criticism online revolves around) we should have one about the more heavily read Daily (example: the reference for the Shambu article is a GreenCine Daily article).--Granddukesfinances (talk) 02:22, 20 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

And further: some of the references for those who don't have the time to skim through them

"In changing times, where critics try to maintain a livelihood, and relevance, in old media and the new bully pulpit, and question whether or not to continue at all, the most powerful person in the blogosphere isn’t a critic. It’s GreenCine editor David Hudson, for the hits he brings us when we are anointed for his daily aggregation. If he or GreenCine Daily decided to pull the plug, we would all be adrift until someone else with stature, authority—and the patience to wade through all this stuff—took over the rudder." --Robert Cashill, writer for Cineaste (Cineaste article)

"GreenCine Daily, which has become an essential resource." --Steve Erickson, writer for Gay City News (Cineaste article)

"The blog I visit most often is GreenCine Daily, which is really a means for gleaning information or opinions on whatever movies I’m interested in." --J. Hoberman (Cineaste article)

"...the GreenCine Daily (http://www.daily.greencine.com), the fruit of David Hudson’s countless hours crawling the Web for worthwhile cinema-related content, which he summarizes and links for the ease of cinephiles everywhere. While there are dozens if not hundreds of other sites worth mentioning (my own RSS aggregator tracks 112 sites and blogs), I feel comfortable singling out GreenCine Daily for praise because it does such a marvelous job at spotlighting everyone else." --Kevin Lee, Shooting Down Pictures (Cineaste Article)

"When I got into this racket, there was a fledgling underground of interesting Internet film writers, whose generic interests and methods of approach had far more in common with high-brow mainstream media than with the so-called “fanboy” culture, at that time held up on one end by Film Threat and on the other by Harry Knowles’ Ain’t It Cool News. There was indieWIRE for film news and festival coverage, Reverse Shot and Slant for sharp, unforgiving reviews of indie and indie-arm releases, Twitch for enthusiastic spelunking of obscure genre product, and a few handfuls of disparate blog voices, most of which languished in obscurity until swept up in the heroic collation efforts of David Hudson at GreenCine Daily." --Karina Longworth, Spout Blog (Cineaste Article)

--Granddukesfinances (talk) 02:34, 20 December 2008 (UTC) "Metablogs like GreenCine Daily and Girish Shambu’s blog, which compile and recommend activity in the blogosphere, are invaluable." --Dan Sallitt (Cineaste Article)Reply

"The film blog I find most essential is the aggregator GreenCine Daily (http://daily.greencine.com/), run by the Berlin-based David Hudson. He collects and posts the most significant news, links, and pieces of the day." --Girish Shambu (Cineaste Article)

"...[the] blog has been an essential source for anyone who loves film..." --(IFC.com article)

"But the point is that the whole way that these things circulate or the way that one hears about it are different. And I don’t want to have when and how I see something be dictated just by business and according to how somebody else is going to be making money from it. That’s why I would rather read GreenCine Daily. Even though I do read The New York Times daily, if I want to learn what it meant when Manny Farber died I find out from GreenCineDaily, and I wouldn’t find out from The New York Times." --Jonathan Rosenbaum (Film Comment article)
