- Comment: Article currently under work to address issues, as sources have been found under its original and Chinese language titles. Will report back. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:21, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per meeting WP:NF and per ongoing article improvements. This 1990 film has had international distribution under several different language titles and has been crtitically reviewed for years in multiple languages. Even as recently as a few days ago, the Manila Bulletin made note of this 21-year-old film and its similarity to a recent hostage situation in the Phillipnes.[1] What began as THIS unsourced stub is now a somehat better article. And yes, there's more available for further improvements. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 21:32, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as a nice save that establishes notability in reliable sources, but what are those huge quotes in a foreign language doing there? Bigger digger (talk) 00:33, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks... and to answer your question... it's a neccessity per WP:RSUE: "Because this is the English Wikipedia, English-language sources should be used in preference to non-English ones, except where no English source of equal quality can be found that contains the relevant material. When quoting a source in a different language, provide both the original-language quotation and an English translation, in the text or in a footnote." So I did.
