So, are you telling me that Wikipedia is only once something has succeeded. The mere fact that the documentary (or a movie or a book) is published is not sufficient for Wikipedia to publish on the topic. Isnt this censorship. Medical literature requires publication of negative/unsuccessful experiments. The fact is, the documentary has been published into the lockdowns and government mandates into the state with the most amount of lockdowns/curfews in the world. Surely this is worth documenting!Irishkiwi007 (talk) 11:52, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, it isn't censorship. See Wikipedia:Free speech. Bishonen | tålk 12:01, 22 January 2022 (UTC).[reply]

So we have a counter-culture documentary, detailing human rights abuses by an Australian government, but because the documentary hasn't been successful elsewhere, wikipedia doesnt think its notable.

What would make a documentary showing a 70yo lady being slammed into the ground, by police and pepper sprayed notable. What would make notable a documentary outlining police the tackling of a young person standing idly at a train station, with a trip to ICU due to landing head first and the police being charged with assault?

Reliable independent sources covering the film in significant detail. A Wikipedia article summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a topic. Theroadislong (talk) 12:16, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you just want to tell the world about what you say are abuses by the Australian government, Wikipedia is not the forum to do that. A documentary is a good forum to do that, and you can tell the world about it on social media or a website for the documentary. Wikipedia is interested in what independent reliable sources say about a topic; they will need to write on their own about this film for it to merit inclusion in Wikipedia. Social media does not have such requirements. 331dot (talk) 12:20, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
