After 10 years this article still has not acquired a single independent reliable source. An Internet search turns up multiple sources that lack independence and trivial mentions in other contexts. Article needs to have multiple independent reliable sources that indicate that the festival itself has been their non-trivial subject. KDS 4444 Talk  01:43, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment: I'm finding some sources like this and this. They're brief, but they're not really press releases or routine notifications per se. I think that the easiest way to assert notability here might be to see how many places have republished their awards results. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  11:47, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 * This looks promising. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  11:49, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 * The focus of this article. So far I'm finding mostly local sources and not really any reprints of award results. I'm seeing where other newspapers have commented on specific recipients, but not really general awards announcements. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  11:52, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment. It's not much, but there's this article by Variety.  Getting mentioned in Variety counts for something, I suppose.  Also, MovieMaker has a bunch of listicles that ranked this festival.  For example:, , .  Make of that what you will. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:26, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
 * weak Keep. on the basis of the Variety article.  DGG ( talk ) 01:35, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep for now perhaps as the current article also seems convincing enough. Notifying for local analysis.  SwisterTwister   talk  02:11, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
