Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pallywood (2nd nomination)
I Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pallywood|nominated this article for deletion back in February. Although it's improved somewhat since then, it's still deeply flawed. The article tries to do two things: to define the term "Pallywood" and document its usage, and to discuss the amateur video of the same name by Richard Landes. There's certainly evidence that the term has been used frequently in the blogosphere, but a Lexis-Nexis search finds only a handful of uses in the mainstream media. We're not in the business of defining blog slang. '''|Wikipedia is not a dictionary, or a slang, jargon, or usage guide'''. As for Landes' video, Lexis-Nexis finds only ''two'' mainstream sources referring to it: it's mentioned briefly in a UK ''Daily Telegraph'' http://www.telegraph.co.uk/connected/main.jhtml?xml=/connected/2007/04/14/nosplit/dldoc14.xml article on online conspiracy theorists, and equally briefly in a ''National Post'' article (not online). It doesn't appear to have been the subject of any reviews, and there are no articles specifically about it. Assuming (very generously) that a home-made video can be considered a film, '''Wikipedia:Notability (films)''' applies; Landes' video doesn't meet any of the criteria set out there
