Pyase Panchi

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A bare synopsis of a film plot. No indication of the notability of this film. Because there are no reliable sources it cannot be verified by readers. Appears to fail WP:GNG. Disputed Prod, so brought here for discussion. Sparthorse (talk) 07:39, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment This 1961 Hindi film and its actors are verifiable. Article has now been rewritten and sectioned for further expansion. Will hope for input and assistance in sourcing this 51-year-old pre-internet film from those editors familiar with Cinema of India whom might have access to hard-copy, pre-internet sources.

 * Incubate. I had a look and made a few minor sourcing additions. What I saw in web searches were directory listings, blogs, trivial mentions. I am fairly convinced that (a) it existed, (b) some crew members were notable or potentially notable, and (c) that it is not a classic. Might merit a WP entry, might not. Notability here definitely requires evidence, which is simply not there yet. However, it is a brand new article and I appreciate the difficulties given the subject, so I think incubation is a better course than deletion. Happy to keep as soon as anyone can provide good WP:RS sources. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 01:49, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Incubate seems reasonable to me. The difficulty of this topic being a 51-year-old, waaaay-pre-internet, 1961 film indicates that research might take a bit longer than the few days we have at AFD, and will require assistance from those Hindi-reading Wikipedians beter able to address the non-English topic. In the incubator it will be out of article space and yet still benefit from collaborative editing.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 07:37, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
