Non-notable gangster film, made by some user who seems to have quite an obsession with the "sindikato". Couldn't find any RS to back up its inclusion. Blake Gripling (talk) 23:23, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete unless Tagalog-reading Wikipedians come forward with Tagalog sources for this non-English film.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 18:20, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Conditional keep - It was made by Regal Films, one of the main producers of Philippine cinema. Sadly, the film is from 1996, long before internet media was well established in the Philippines, so reliable sources of any language will be particularly hard to find. However, while this might be somewhat OR, as it's a Regal film, I presume this had a fairly wide distribution (I wasn't born yet when the film came out), which would be a pretty strong claim to notability. If it's fine with anyone, I'll ping for confirmation. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 09:28, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - While we're at it, we might as well keep a close watch on Malusia22's sockpuppets for any "sindikato" related articles. The prob here isn't necessarily the article, as Naruto pointed out that it may be notable based on how it was widely shown in local cinemas. It's that Malusia has been so engrossed with his gangster fantasies, that he'd mix truth and hot air and come up with articles that are at first legit, but show up as not when you look it up his SPI case page, besides the citations. I'm no expert on local crime groups, though I do hear and watch about them on mainstream news, but while I can more or less point out some dead giveaways, I do need some input on whether there's such a confederation under the "sindikato" banner in the vein of the National Crime Syndicate, or if it's merely a Tagalog transliteration, and that Kuratong Baleleng and other groups are very loosely associated or not linked to each other at all.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete - All of the articles are created by a sockpuppet of User:Malusia22, a blocked vandal that is known to create hoax articles about a certain big crime syndicate in the Philippines named "Sindikatu". A related AFD can be seen here. -WayKurat (talk) 00:44, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
