A Bahraini Tale

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Doesn't appear to meet the notability guideline for films or the general notability guideline (contested prod; see Talk:A Bahraini Tale) – hysteria18 (talk) 09:52, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The film did get significant coverage in its initial stages by the national newspaper (which publishes internationally), And in accordance with the general notability guide , that is a proper source for notable films. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Droodkin (talk • contribs) 13:47, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep Meets notability requisites for an Arabic-language Bahraini film that "was successfully distributed domestically in a country that is not a major film producing country". I came into this hoping that someone was not expecting much English-language or world-wide coverage, and suprisingly found we DO have enough, even if not yet in the article, to encourage the article be expanded with the English-language sources AND to ask for assistance from Arabic-reading Wikipedians in adding Arabic-language sources. Notable to Bahrain is perfectly fine for en.Wikipedia.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 05:22, 24 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep per MQS.♦ Dr. Blofeld  08:15, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per GNG and per WP:NFILMS, specifically "The film represents a unique accomplishment in cinema, is a milestone in the development of film art, or contributes significantly to the development of a national cinema, with such verifiable claims as "The only cel-animated feature film ever made in Thailand"", and here we're talking about the third film ever produced in Bahrain.
