Comment: Article content originated as a list entry which I initially added to List of Internet phenomena, which was expanded into a mainspace article by another user (incorporating the list entry and a draft which I contributed to) after continued significant coverage of the subject.
Comment I would recommend saying "fictional" instead of "fictitious." The latter carries the connotation that the Goncharov meme is a serious attempt to deceive people into believing in the existence of an imaginary film, while the former indicates that there's a general understanding that the film doesn't exist and the meme is an elaborate joke.

@CJ-Moki: I think "fictional" implies that the film's content is fictional, which isn't what we're trying to convey. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 08:43, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
@Theleekycauldron: If that is the case, I propose "imaginary" be used in place of "fictitious." Again, "fictitious" often carries the connotation of deception, whereas "imaginary" conveys that there isn't a serious effort to deceive people into believing in the existence of a fake film.

@CJ-Moki: We can always say "nonexistent" in keeping with the wording of the current revision of the article. Or just use a different word across all locations. silvia(User:BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4)(inquire within) 12:01, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
Comment: I have strong concerns relating to the article's use of a non-free "movie poster", given that this is a non-existent film. The non-free media appears easily replaceable, and we can't run a DYK until we resolve the image copyright issues. — Red-tailed hawk(nest) 04:16, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
@Red-tailed hawk: I have amended the file description page to what I believe is a more appropriate fair use rationale which addresses the concern raised. Hopefully it is now sufficient. silvia(User:BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4)(inquire within) 05:22, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
A full review of this nomination is still needed. Flibirigit (talk) 12:32, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
Overall: I find the rewritten fair use rationale persuasive. Actually I was more concerned about Daily Dot being used as a source but I suppose it can be allowed in this instance, as the claim is not contentious. I prefer the first hook. BorgQueen (talk) 13:57, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
