No independent coverage of this new conlang. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 21:34, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Unable to find sufficient coverage in RS. Hrodvarsson (talk) 21:52, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep There are references on the Internet; however, it's normal that there isn't much coverage of Pandunia, it's a recently created language and it still hasn't spread much. Even so, I believe that the currently existing references are enough as to keep the article on Wikipedia. Plus, it has a stable community and the language is now much more stable than it has been in the past. Goprake (talk) 21:58, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - virtually no in-depth coverage of this in any independent, reliable sources. Doesn't pass WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 00:45, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment: The current sources don't seem to be sufficient, since they don't appear to be independent – except for a couple of blogs, which don't appear to be reliable. I did, however, find one academic paper analyzing the language. Unfortunately it is written in Russian, and I don't read Russian. Also, one independent source is probably not sufficient to satisfy GNG, but is a step in the right direction. Cnilep (talk) 01:00, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep A Finnish book "Keksittyjä kieliä" (2017) by PhD Kauko Kämäräinen dedicates one chapter for Pandunia after the chapters for Solresol, Universalglot, Volapük, Idiom Neutral, Esperanto, Ido, Novial and Interlingua. This is remarkable considering how young Pandunia is compared to the other languages. Neruda (talk) 12:36, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Searches for that book on Worldcat and the Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog come up with no results, and I can't find any information about the publisher anywhere. Do you have any evidence that it is not self-published? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 22:19, 14 March 2018 (UTC)
 * FYI, some book info: Title: Keksittyjä kieliä, unohdettuja utopioita Author: Kämäräinen, Kauko. Publisher is listed as Kustannus Kääntöpuoli, December 2017, ISBN-13: 9789526829517, ISBN-10: 9526829514, in case that helps anyone. Not speaking Finnish, and having exhausted my weekly quota of a-umlauts, I don't have an opinion. Martinp (talk) 03:41, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
