 * Comment. This looks like a G4. A participant in the first AfD turned a redirect page into an article right after the debate closed as delete. While I can't see the deleted article or understand the Tagalog sources on the new page, I do see some of the same problems discussed in the first AfD. • Gene93k (talk) 10:21, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy, perhaps? Blake Gripling (talk) 10:22, 4 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Not a G4, it's significantly expanded. Still don't think it's notable, but it's definitely not a G4. TravellingCari  12:52, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete and block Clearly fails notability, and sockpuppeteers are not welcome. Bye bye.  Spec  ial  K  13:36, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * COMMENT: The original AfD is here: Articles for deletion/Land Down Under (film). Has puppetry been proven, or is only an allegation? The article does seem to have addresssed the concerns of WP:Crystal that were brought up in the 1st AfD.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 18:03, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * weak keep As recreated, the article may quailfy under WP:NF's Other eveidence of notability, item 3. How many companies are making films in Tagalog?  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 21:55, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
 * To answer the question: there are a good number, really. (Coming to think of it, Filipino film companies rarely produce films other than Tagalog, if at all (recent notable non-English and non-Tagalog exceptions are Panaghoy sa Suba and Kaleldo)), so, yes, Star Cinema isn't the only company that produces Tagalog films (there's Regal Films, GMA Films, Seiko Films, Viva Films, RVQ Productions and others). The original AfD for this one was based on the premise that the article was created using mere rumors as the references. In other words, no reliable sources existed way back then, not even in TV or newspapers. --- Tito Pao (talk) 01:51, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Provisional Weak Keep, article has been improved somewhat from its previous state. Give the editor a little more time to expand upon it to establish notability, and if this is not forthcoming, then it should be deleted.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 01:10, 6 September 2008 (UTC).
 * Keep per WP:CSB. Stifle (talk) 12:47, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. The movie ahd already began filming. Read This, It says "Now that shooting for Angel Locsin’s movie under Star Cinema, Land Down Under, is underway, ..........". Shrekclear (talk) 04:29, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
