911 the musical[edit]

9/11 the musical? This has to be a sick joke. And even if it's not, a) the stub is useless ("nothing else is known about the project"?), and b) it's not been released yet. Katefan0 04:59, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete - unverifiable, no content once speculation is removed. -- Cyrius| 05:23, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - might be a plug, sounds tasteless, unpublished manuscript. EventHorizon 06:34, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Probable hoax. Trying to think of what songs they could incorporate into it. "Rudie Can't Fail"? "The Only Living Boy in New York" (a slight exaggeration)?I guess "It's the End of the World as We Know It" is an obvious one. This actually reminds me of the Bollywood remake of Fahrenheit 911 that was in the onion this week. Wonder if this is an extension of that. -R. fiend 06:40, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • "The Dead Flag Blues" by Godspeed! You Black Emperor, perhaps. Or Carole King's "I Feel the Earth Move". "We've Only Just Begun" by the Carpenters? "Morning has Broken" by Cat Stevens? Mike Oldfield's "Five Miles Out"? -Ashley Pomeroy 16:32, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • I have to call Geogre's Law on this one: If it happens, and if it becomes notable, then we'll cover it. -- Antaeus Feldspar 06:43, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Let it be released, and we might have an article on it. utcursch 12:58, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: It does not exist yet. Article created by User:24.126.61.144 who claims good faith. (The songs would be, essentially, the Clear Channel Communications list of censored songs. Remember how they had a list of songs not to play after 9/11? Everything with "bomb" or "fall" or "tower" was banned, plus a lot more.) (Oh, and "A Message to Rudy" for the Prednisent's speech on the rubble pile.) It sounds grotesque, but so does Urinetown, and that was a hit. Geogre 15:39, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Yeah, I remember hearing about the Clear Channel list, though I have to concurr that some of them, if seen as being played spcifically with 911 in mind, seemed in bad taste (e.g. "Great Balls of Fire", and that John Cougar Melloncamp one about the walls coming tumbling down). But, man, those Urinetown guys totally stole my "Pissville" libretto I wrote just the week before. I should sue. -R. fiend 23:39, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
      • Keep in mind that the "list" that many people remember seeing was a hoax version that circulated, and even the true list was only a list of songs that it was suggested be temporarily taken off playlists in reaction to the tragedy. As I'm wont to say to friends, Snopes that sucka! -- Antaeus Feldspar 22:48, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, and support my Proposed "no futures" policy which would make it policy that articles on forthcoming books, movies, games, and software are not allowed. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 17:20, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • I think thats too strong a policy. Smile (album) was worthy of an article even before Brian finished it, simply because it had lain gathering dust for 35 years. -- GWO
    • Smile (album) was different. It was a legendary "lost" album, and it was written up when it was never-to-be released. It got changed, or should have been, when there was a release. Famously lost works and famous failures have a claim. For that matter, some things, like the Troggs Tapes, that have never had an official release, might be worth discussing, or the Mudshark video (again, legendarily lost), possible. (In most of those cases, I think they're better discussed with their master topics, but my point is that the failures and losses are famous.) Geogre 22:43, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete, along with all other unpublished movie scripts and albums and songs, unless they are already notorious for some reason. Tempshill 21:46, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Tasteless. Also delete 9/11 the musical, a copy of the same page. Bad Rabbit 15:09, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    9/11 the musical (note the slash) was actually Talk:Ambition (card game), moved there by one of Mike Church's sockpuppets. I moved it back and deleted the resulting redirect. —No-One Jones 20:10, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete for lack of content and lack of confirmability -- not for POV about the article's subject or content, which are reprehensibly invalid reasons in an encyclopedia. - [[User:KeithTyler|Keith D. Tyler [flame]]] 18:49, Dec 16, 2004 (UTC)
