Couldn't find any sources for this minor film. Since there are no sources, not much content can be written. TamilMirchi (talk) 02:32, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: Hello user, you are probably a user from Tamil Nadu, I am a Malaysian myself. I believe Malaysian Tamil language films article are very notable, as all of them are released nationwide in Malaysia, there are sources, our local media have reportings about these films. It is not like student film, it is REAL theatrical films, no reason for not being notable. I feel terribly sad that you want to nominate the deletion of all these articles, most contributed by me. I believe all these can stay. And, the article is well-written and well-cited, plus with good formatting. Please reconsider and unnominate the deletion, thank you so much ;) User:LoveFromBJM (User talk:LoveFromBJM 04:25, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I really do not understand your intentions of deleting the articles. You must have known these films is very significant in my countries. Although those cited websites are not news website, they are still media website that reports, making these films notable. Meanwhile, these articles are shorter, BUT you may realized that they are really written properly.

For Athaiyum Thaandi:
I have added one more source. Raaga, Varnam, Cinema.com.my, Astro are the local media websites that brings reliable information.

  • Delete No reliable independent reviews. Fails WP:NFILM. As to the "Cinema.com" citation, that's a film database site which provides no indication that the film is notable, just that it exists. The "Varnam" might be a reliable source, except that the article is just a notice that the film was released and that it has a trailer. Again, that doesn't prove the film is notable...only that the film exists. The "Astro" citation is from a TV site that says the film is available to rent online, that's advertising and not a RS.

  • Delete- As per Donaldd23's rationale above. My opinion exactly. Sunshine1191 (talk) 06:30, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - we will need more than mere database listings to prove notability here Spiderone 08:37, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

TamilMirchi (talk · contribs) Latest Please read the latest version, I removed Cinema.com.my reference, I have added Astro, Varnam, Makkalosai and Maalai Malar (Both Tamil) are the local reliable news websites that brings reliable information. // remove other excess external links --User:LoveFromBJM (User talk:LoveFromBJM)

TamilMirchi (talk · contribs), as the nominator, you may speedy keep it now. Thanks --User:LoveFromBJM (User talk:LoveFromBJM)
Procedural note: LoveFromBJM As per Afd policy, nominations for deletion can't be withdrawn as long as there is an extant Delete !vote present. If you, as the creator of the article, feel that the article has been substantially improved then you must convince the editors who have voted for Deletion to change their votes to Keep. Until then, the nominator (TamilMirchi) won't be able to withdraw their nom. TheRedDomitor (talk) 07:56, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Spiderone: Doesn't look like it...not in the current revision anyway. Of the new sources added too, one is just a bunch of listings of movie theatres screening the film! Still far from establishing WP:NFILM. Sunshine1191 (talk) 10:10, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Sunshine1191: I agree. Unless evidence does come forward of reviews, I'll be sticking with my delete vote. Spiderone 10:51, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
