The article is meant to promote the subject. May I quote here that the article is apparently created by the producer ShivangSehgal/ Now blocked production house User:LegacyFilms of the movie. It was earlier under a different title W (2013 film), later moved to W (2014 film). Still releasing... However the primary concern is none of the above but WP:NF.

- Comment: The article obeys policy in not being promotional. WP:PROMO #5 says, "Information about companies and products must be written in an objective and unbiased style, free of puffery." Now we need to look for reliable sources that cover the film in detail to demonstrate notability. This is one source for consideration, while this is just a reprinted press release. EDIT: This is another source I found. I am not familiar enough with Indian sources to know which ones are reliable or not. If others can comment on their reliability, that would be great.

- First one is a reliable source. Lets concentrate on content of the source, Legacy Film Productions' first Hindi Feature Film titled W, which was launched in the month of September 2012 is all set to hit the theatres in June 2013. It is not released till date. Now it is said by the producer of the movie in the article, that it would be releasing on 14 MARCH 2014. No recent source found on Google. Might be, it is the one alphabet title causing trouble finding sources even available. Second is a reprint of the press release, hence doesn't contribute to establish notability. third one seems reliable, it says the same, it will be releasing soon in 2013 in to Indian cinemas.

- As the press release mentions, W screened at the Navi Mumbai International Film Festival. We can use that term in a search to find any independent coverage. It is a little tricky to search with that one-letter title, though. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 17:00, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

- Comment: At one point someone removed a lot of the sourcing I'd found for the film, so I've re-added the sourcing. I'm not sure why it was removed. This isn't an argument for notability, just that there's more sourcing than there initially was. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 06:28, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
- I wasn't that someone. (page history). Thanks for re-adding sources. The article now looks good enough notable for inclusion (There was zero sources the moment I nominated the page for deletion). I guess, I should withdraw my nomination now. Thank you again. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 11:10, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
- Comment by the nominator: I withdraw the nomination as multiple sources are made available by respected editors (There might be many more coming with dates closing to the release). I should have given myself some more time finding references and updating article rather than nominating. Regards, Anupmehra -Let's talk! 11:10, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
