Hello,
If I am not mistaken you started the page about that film before shooting ended (and are the main contributor so far). As I say on its TP:
Except mirrors of mirrors of Imdb, I only found that, a source of dubious quality, or a simple mention of the title on one of Dekker's fan sites. The fact arousing most suspicion may be that there is a play by Thomas Dekker called The Honest Whore. There is no still, no video, no review, no interview. Have you seen the film and/or do you have any proof that it is real? Thanks. — MY, OH, MY! 23:45, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
Additional comment: As you can see, I have taken the page to Afd, but, thanks to User:ReaderofthePack and User:WikiVirusC, the hoax issue has been addressed, Only notability is at stake now. Best, — MY, OH, MY! 22:29, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
Nomination of Whore (2008 film) for deletion[edit]

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Whore (2008 film) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.
