As per WP:FILM, a film is notable subject if sources are provided. The article is about just a 12 min general video. It is also not something that has created a sensation. Not notable, probably made up by the creator. KCVelaga _{☚╣✉╠☛} 00:28, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for failing WP:NF. It is incorrect for the nominator to state a film is a "notable subject if sources are provided" because, even if unsourced, a topic might be notable if sources are available, used or not. That clarified, I was unable to find decent sources in my own search and so believe a delete is the proper outcome. If or when proper sources become available, bring them forth and the topic could then be resurrected without prejudice. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 06:31, 16 July 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete per Schmidt, . Also note that the only reliable source is IMDB, and they don't have much on it other than it was released on Facebook, but I can't even find the original video there. Pianoman320 (talk) 20:57, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Pianoman320: While IMDB is useful in encouraging our own expanded searches, for various reasons it is not considered a reliable source for Wikipedia. See the essay WP:CITEIMDB. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 20:19, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense, thanks for the tip. Pianoman320 (talk) 00:33, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The alternate search tools of WP:INDAFD give limited results: "Komala Pata" "Robin Chandra Roy" Being a short film without media coverage is a deficit. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 20:24, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
