Don't delete it, just revert it to the old Doom movie page. Right now, all the links that used to link to the Doom movie are going to the Doom disambiguation page, and that's a lot of links.

Since we're on video games of the early nineties, what are your thoughts on the two below? The sort of snuck in a few months ago.

While it needs bringing up to standard, the guns were digitised from real props and if nothing else it's needed to address the belief by some (including the uploader and the Doom Wiki itself) that the pistol was a real weapon. I've fixed the links to the way they were before, though.

Mr. X's Thompson is real enough, but SoR: Remake is a fan project, not a released game (it's a ROMhack with hi-def graphics and elements of all three released games). Deleted.

Punisher, the drawn scenes are pretty close to the ID'd guns, but there's some that are really pushing it; the guy's arm shouldn't be there, and there's no real way the launcher is supposed to be an FGM-148 in 1993 since they'd only test-fired the first working launcher that year.

The talk page for the doom movie is sort of in limbo though. The link on the pages for both the game and the movie both link to the talk page for the game.

Really??? That thing on his arm is suppose to be an M202 Flash????

Also there is no need to retain the Doom VG page due to links, nothing links to that page!

Not now, Tim fixed it last night.

Two more for review: (We really should have a "Questionable Eligibility" thread)

It's a short film, submitted by the guy who created the At Bay page. Even if you wanted to grandfather it in a short film, I don't think it meets the distribution requirements.

Again, a short film, and despite being from the Biohazard/Resident Evil franchise, I'm not sure it meets the distribution requirement. When you google it, it's only available for download.

According to Wikipedia, it has been screened in actual movie theatres in Japan, which would meet the distribution guideline. But it's still 19 minutes long. I'm loathe to delete a well-made page, though, I'll wait for a second opinion.

I don't dispute that, but I don't think it's legally available on home video. I'm wondering if it violates the piracy related rules.
