National Lampoon's Totally Baked: A Potumentary[edit]

Seems non-notable. Not listed on Metacritic. Rotten Tomatoes doesn't list any critic reviews. Google only shows user reviews, no news pieces. Atlantima ~✿~ (talk) 22:07, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The movie exists, but seems to have been ignored by reliable sources. I can find no article, or reviews of this movie. -- Whpq (talk) 16:59, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Like Whpq, I cannot find any coverage. However, we do have List of National Lampoon films, and if anyone is willing to undertake the task, the list could be converted into a table format so at least each film in this franchise could have a summary. If we could do such an approach, I would support merging this topic to that list. Erik (talk | contribs) 17:06, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete/Redirect to List of National Lampoon films. I tried doing a bit of a cleanup and I found two small sources, but they're not enough to really warrant a keep. In an interesting note, I want to say that most of what I'm finding lists it just as "Totally Baked: A Potumentary", so I don't know if that means we drop the "National Lampoon" from the title or not. I know that the norm is that we only include the "National Lampoon" or any other such formatting if that's how the movie is commonly displayed.

Keep and let's continue a proper look for sources. The "Find sources" assigned by the AD template is not as useful as we might hope. I found this film HAS been the recipient of commentary and review. (IE: DVD Verdict [1], JoBlo [2], Cinemania [3], et al.) Is it the most notable film ever? Nope. Is it just notable enough for Wikipedia so as to serve its readers? I think yes. What else may have been missed due a dependence on a poor "Find sources"? Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 23:31, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge: I have searched for suitable references in the past, but didn't find much beyond passing mentions. However, the number of such mentions suggests it possesses some notability. Rather than deletion, I'd like to see List of National Lampoon films converted into a summary table format, with an entry for this film. Praemonitus (talk) 01:51, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Doesn't seem to have any significant coverage in genuinely reliable sources. The sorry recent history of the National Lampoon tag (nothing to do with the original films) doesn't convince me that there's anything worth merging here - an entry in the List of NL films is sufficient. --Michig (talk) 07:25, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of National Lampoon films due to lack of independent notability. A brief mention at the list article seems most suitable, and I would not mind that list's entries being a little more fleshed out to at least give brief synopses of each film, including this one.
