List of commercial failures in video gaming
[edit]So I was reading your WP:VG interview and decided to submit one of the articles you mentioned to reddit. It caused quite the traffic increase. JACOPLANE • 2011-04-7 21:17

Speedy deletion declined: The Mercurymen (Canadian band)
[edit]Hello GamerPro64. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of The Mercurymen (Canadian band), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Songs played on commercial radio is a credible assertion of importance (A7) / not TNT level (G11) - use WP:AFD . Thank you. Whpq (talk) 14:38, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- The article was literally written by an account named TheMercurymen. Wouldn't that be self promotional? GamerPro64 14:45, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Accounts with a conflict of interest are strongly discouraged from writing about themselves, but policy does not forbid it. WP:G11 requires that the article be so promotional that it would require a fundamental rewrite. As stated in my decline, it doesn't reach the level of WP:TNT. -- Whpq (talk) 14:56, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is an American silent film directed by Stuart Paton and released on December 24, 1916. Based primarily on the 1870 novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas by Jules Verne, the film also incorporates elements from Verne's 1875 novel The Mysterious Island. This was the first motion picture filmed underwater. Actual underwater cameras were not used, but a system of watertight tubes and mirrors allowed the camera to shoot reflected images of underwater scenes staged in shallow sunlit waters in the Bahamas. For the scene featuring a battle with an octopus, cinematographer John Ernest Williamson devised a viewing chamber called the "photosphere", a 6-by-10-foot (1.8-by-3.0-metre) steel globe in which a cameraman could be placed. The film was made by the Universal Film Manufacturing Company (now Universal Pictures), not then known as a major motion picture studio, and took two years to make, at the cost of $500,000.
